  • Best Wine Bar List – Dear Sainte Éloise
    “Dear Sainte Éloise, if you exist, please send me some money. I don’t ask for much — just enough to buy some bread and a bottle of wine” – George Orwell, Down and Out in Paris and London, 1933 We love this story. A young and desperate protagonist, destitute on the streets of Paris, praying to a photograph of a saint who is later revealed to be nothing more than a famous prostitute. It’s a funny scene with a great punchline and best of all: his wish comes true. He gets his wine and his bread, and he is restored. We too understand the happiness that simple pleasures can provide, when a solitary glass of wine can change your entire day. That’s why we built Dear Sainte Éloise – a place of simple pleasures and replenishment, and happiness, too. We like to think of this bar as a place where journeys are made and connections are forged. The pages of this wine list are filled with wines that have the ability to transport the drinker away from the everyday to fantastic faraway lands – from the beloved wine regions of Australia, to the incomparable sites of Europe, and beyond. This is a list that celebrates the great winemakers, who have defined what wine can and should be. But it’s a list that also gives a voice to the young, entrepreneurial and experimental winemakers of the present – those who will help define wine’s future. We believe that wine is an interconnected community full of sharing and learning, creating and drinking.

  • Godello 2017

Valdeoras... It can be found throughout Galicia, northern Portugal and the D.O. Bierzo. Traces of its production have been found dating back to the 12th century in the areas of Castile-Leon and Bierzo. Outside of these regions, it is grown in the D.O. Abona, El Hierro, La Palma, Ribeira Sacra, Ribeiro, Tacoronte-Acentejo, Valle de Güimar, Valle de la Orot- rava and Icoden-Daute- Isora (Tenerife). Sometimes there is confusion with Verdejo if you don’t see its leaves. Respected for its well develo- ped qualities, Godello shows a complex aromatic profile. It prefers dry climates and low humidity soils. Ages well in barrels. 1.200 Ha planted in Spain TECHNICAL INFORMATION Harvest time: End of September Classification: Bierzo DO Origin of the grapes: Bierzo Grape Variety: Godello Vinification: Fermentation at 12ºC for 15 days and completion of the fermentation at 16ºC.

PAIRING Ribs, roasts and cutlets, as well as curried poultry, pasta with shellfish and seafood will all go perfectly with this wine for dinner with friends.

  • Joao Ferreira Alvares Ribeiro
    JOAO FERRIERA ALVARES RIBEIRO OWNER-MANAGER QUINTA DO VALLADO Every great wine region of the world has a few families that stand out…usually through the hard work, generous spirit and great vision of one family member. In the Douro region of Portugal, that family is named Ferreira, and the person most responsible for making the name legendary in the Portuguese wine world is Dona Antonia Adelaide Ferreira. Since the early 1700s, the Ferreira family owned land in this very fertile river valley, only a few miles of the region’s historical center of Regua, along both banks of the Corgo River, where it meets the Douro. It was Dona Antonia, with a keen entrepreneurial business sense and great managerial skills who, in the late 1800s, started turning the family farm into the world- class winery that Quinta do Vallado is today. It is now her grandchildren, particularly Joao Ferriera Alvares Ribeiro, together with cousins Francisco Ferreira and Francisco Olazabal, who have followed in Dona Antonia’s considerable footsteps and ushered the highly-prized wines of Quinta do Vallado onto the 21 Century world wine stage. Like his grandmother, Joao has a great business sense, refined over 25 years in the banking industry. By the year 2000, Joao had risen to a top management position at Banco BPI. But, he always had one foot firmly planted in the family wine business. The tug of six generations of farmers became so great that Joao started spending more and more time among the vines. In 2007, he left the banking industry to devote all his talents - more - - 2 - and efforts to help elevate the quality and image of Quinta do Vallado wines to the position they enjoy today as among Portugal’s finest still wines.

  • Petition for Johannisberg Riesling; Proposed Addition of Grape Variety
    WAIS Document Retrieval Page 1 of 8 [Federal Register: January 6, 1999 (Volume 64, Number 3)] [Proposed Rules] [Page 813-816] From the Federal Register Online via GPO Access [wais.access.gpo.gov] [DOCID:fr06ja99-20] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms 27 CFR Part 4 [Notice No. 871] RIN 1512-AB80 Petition for Johannisberg Riesling; Proposed Addition of Grape Variety Names for American Wines; Request for Additional Information for Other Proposed Grape Varieties (98R-406P) AGENCY: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, Department of the Treasury. ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) has received a petition proposing to extend the phase-out date for the use of the term Johannisberg Riesling as a designation for American wines, from January 1, 1999, until January 1, 2006. The effect of this proposed change would allow U.S. wineries to use Johannisberg Riesling as a designation for American wines made from White Riesling grapes for an additional seven years. The petition was received from the law firm of Buchman & O'Brien, and was filed on behalf of trade associations representing United States wineries. This petition asserts that this change would allow American wineries additional time to educate consumers about the name change, and would provide additional time for wineries to change labels, packaging, and merchandising material for this wine. This petition proposes to extend the phase-out date for the term Johannisberg Riesling to January 1, 2006. After that date, wine made from White Riesling grapes would be required to be designated either ``Riesling'' or ``White Riesling.'' ATF has also received petitions proposing to add two new names, Traminette and Aglianico, to the list of prime grape variety names for use in designating American wines.
