2 Côtes du Coeur Overview

Côtes du Coeur Overview

The Côtes du Coeur event series is a premiere fundraising campaign hosted annually in Dallas, Texas to benefit the American Heart Association (AHA). Sponsored by the Dallas Division of the AHA, the event series leads up to an annual fine wine auction and celebrity chef dinner. This culminating black-tie gala event is the largest of its kind, making it the number one fundraising gala in the nation for the American Heart Association. Proceeds from Côtes du Coeur go directly to the AHA for cardiovascular research and heart health educational programs both locally and nationwide. During its 24-year history, Côtes du Coeur has attracted more than 21,000 attendees and has raised more than $27 million.

Côtes du Coeur hosts approximately 1,200 business and wine industry leaders, community philanthropists, wine collectors and physicians. Led by renowned Dallas chef Richard Chamberlain, a team of 16 acclaimed chefs invite the guests to enjoy selections from a boldly unique tasting menu accompanied by wine pairings created from the cellars of 32 elite wineries. Attendees experience multi-course fine dining designed to showcase specific wine varietals dish-by- dish. The quality of the food and wine is a key differentiator for Côtes du Coeur. The gala also features a live auction of one-of- a-kind experience-packages and a silent auction of more than 2,000 wines—the largest fine wine auction in the Southwest.

Momentum for the spring gala builds during a series of smaller pre-parties and functions. Each pre-gala function aligns with Côtes du Coeur’s focus on fine wines, fine dining and the mission of the AHA “build healthier lives, free of heart disease and stroke.”

Each year at Côtes du Coeur, we present the prestigious Tête du Cuvée – “Best of the Best” – Award to a winery or individual in the wine industry for outstanding achievements in winemaking and efforts to promote a healthy lifestyle in compliance with the American Heart Association guidelines. The 2015 Tête du Cuvée award is presented to Regina Martinelli of Martinelli Winery.

The American Heart Association is the nation’s oldest and largest voluntary health organization dedicated to “building healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke.” These diseases and all other cardiovascular diseases claim nearly 870,000 lives a year. Each year we invest in pioneering research, professional and public education, advocacy and community service programs to help all Americans live longer, healthier lives.

3 CÔtes du Coeur

Message from Kate Rose Marquez 2015 Côtes du Coeur Chair Welcome to CÔtes du Coeur – an evening of fine wines and exquisite epicurean delights! An evening when Dallas’ celebrated chefs pair perfectly with outstanding wineries to advance the mission of The American Heart Association.

The mission of The American Heart Association is clear: “to build healthier lives free of cardiovascular disease and stroke.” The way to affect that mission is through innovative research, strong public health policies, and lifesaving education for those at risk for heart disease and stroke.

Who is at risk? One in three people in the U.S. will die of heart disease. One in three. Look at your table this evening – one third of you gathered around that gorgeous tablescape will die of heart disease.

But you don’t have to. Eighty percent of heart disease is preventable. There are simple steps you can take to affect positive change and rewrite your story. Check out page 25 for life changing and lifesaving information. In fact, rip that page out of this catalog and tape it to your bathroom mirror.

Fighting heart disease is personal and powerful. You may not have known it this evening when you were tying that tie or zipping that ball gown, but just by being here, you are choosing to take an active role in your heart health. And, if you invited someone to be your guest this evening, a friend, a colleague, a client, they may embrace heart health changes that save their lives – just because of what they heard or read tonight. You made that happen.

Of course, cutting edge research, advocacy for strong public health policies and lifesaving education initiatives can’t be done without funding. So, if your company’s corporate sponsorship came out of your budget, thank you for choosing to partner with the AHA toward realization of its mission. If you and your spouse decided to host a table, thank you for making the AHA part of your philanthropic legacy. If you have purchased raffle tickets or bid on auction items, thank you for making the AHA the beneficiary of your leisure pursuits!

You may never meet the person who benefits from the advances in research, surgeries, education or advocacy that you funded, but then again, you may be sitting right next to him.

There is one more way you can support the AHA and its mission – our mission. Open Your Heart.

Open Your Heart is an opportunity to give a gift directly to the mission of the American Heart Association in honor or in memory of someone you love. Because it is a straight donation, any amount you give is 100% tax deductible. At the end of the live auction tonight, there will be an opportunity to Open Your Heart and give. Please raise your paddle and give generously to recognize the mother, brother, wife or friend in your life who has been touched by heart disease.

And, if you are reading this catalog in the days following CÔtes du Coeur, Please know that it is not too late to make an Open Your Heart gift. We would greatly appreciate a belated donation!

Thank you, again, for your generosity. I hope you have a wonderful evening on behalf of a great cause and a critical mission.

With heart, Kate Rose Marquez 2015 CÔtes du Coeur Chair

Message from Nancy Brown Chief Executive Officer

Dear Friends,

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 2015 Dallas Côtes du Coeur. in its 24th year, this annual celebration is critically important to the mission of the American Heart Association, and in particular, the initiatives of our SouthWest Affiliate. I want to thank you for being a part of this proud tradition.

Tonight, led by Richard Chamberlain, we are honored to be joined by 16 superstar Dallas-area chefs, who will prepare culinary masterpieces, each designed to pair exquisitely with our selection of world-class wines. I know this will be an evening you’ll never forget, but of course, tonight is about more than great memories. Above all, Côtes du Coeur reflects the incredible generosity of our attendees from the Dallas community and across the country, whose support allows the American Heart Association to save and improve lives through scientific research, professional and public health education, guidelines to improve quality of care in hospitals, CPR training, and more.

I would like to give special recognition to Kate Rose Marquez, this year’s Côtes du Coeur Chair, who inspires all of us not only through her outstanding leadership, but also her personal story of triumph over heart disease. In closing, I want to once again express my appreciation to you, for the remarkable difference you’re making on behalf of those who face cardiovascular diseases and stroke. I hope you enjoy the 2015 Dallas Côtes du Coeur to the fullest!

All my best,

Nancy Brown Chief Executive Officer American Heart Association

2015 Tête du Cuvée Honoree Regina Martinelli, Martinelli Winery The Martinelli family has been farming grapes and making wine in Sonoma County since 1860, but it wasn’t until the 1980’s that Lee Martinelli Sr. started his own winery. The Martinelli vineyards are located in the Russian River Valley, Green Valley of Russian River, and Sonoma Coast Appellations. These vineyards are meticulously farmed by Lee Martinelli Sr., and his two sons, Lee, Jr. and George, continuing five generations of the proud family legacy of care-taking the land. Winemaker Bryan Kvamme handles the wine with true handcrafted artistry. The wines are neither hot nor cold stabilized, are un-fined and unfiltered, and clarified only by racking before bottling.

Regina Martinelli grew up a farmer’s daughter in the Russian River Valley. She comes from a long lineage of farmers, starting with her Great-Grandfather Giuseppe Martinelli, who planted their flagship vineyards in 1885. Regina’s father, Lee Sr.& brothers, Lee Jr. & George, exclusively farm all of the family ranches. Starting at age six, Regina learned the life of a rural farmer by spending her summers & Saturdays tying vines alongside her three older siblings. This servitude continued until she escaped by attending college in San Luis Obispo, California as a biology major.

After college, Regina spent over 10 years in corporate America pursuing sales & marketing, while obtaining her Masters Degree in Organizational Development. Now Regina brings her knowledge and expertise back to her roots in Sonoma County, where the winery remains family owned & operated. Regina returned full time to the Martinelli Winery in 2008, and since then she has been promoted to Executive Vice President. She continues to focus much of her attention on sales & marketing, as well as bringing the company into the 21st century. The primary goal of Martinelli Winery has always been on hand- crafting fabulous wines that are born in the vineyards. Now, Regina is enthusiastically helping to spread the good word…or good wine to as many as will hold their glass out.

LIFE’S SIMPLE 7

For the first time, the American Heart Association has defined what it means to have ideal cardiovascular health, identifying seven health and behavior factors that impact health and quality of life. We know that even simple, small changes can make a big difference in living a better life. Known as “Life’s Simple 7,” these steps can help add years to your life:

• Stop smoking • Maintain a healthy weight • Engage in regular physical activity • Eat a healthy diet • Manage blood pressure • Take charge of cholesterol • Keep blood sugar, or glucose, at healthy levels

Bevan Cellars Victoria De Crescenzo, Owner & Winemaker “The road not taken” is not just a poem by Robert Frost to Vic- toria De Crescenzo. It is the reminder that indecision and going down the path of least resistance will never result in a life of ad- venture and passion. Born and raised in California, Victoria knew her dreams would take her onto a path unknown.

Back in 1995, when Victoria and Russel started dating in Des Moines, their favorite game was “Guess the Wine.” They would take turns bringing a blind wine and make the other person guess the varietal and region. Looking back on those dates, there is little mystery about how they arrived where they are today.

Victoria and Russel started taking regular trips to wine country in California, where they met many of the finest winemakers. They were so inspired by them that to this day they follow many of their principles: Philip Togni’s attention to every minute detail…. Bob Foley’s practice of only picking fruit if his palate — not some lab test — told him it was time.

In 2001, the two decided drinking wines simply wasn’t enough and they made the move from Minneapolis to California, where they took the plunge and began Bevan Cellars. Blood, sweat, tears and 10 years later their love and determination prevailed. The recent acquisition of 41 acres in Oakville and several 100 point wines are not just the end result of hard work, but the be- ginning of an even greater adventure.

2013 Bevan Cellars Sauvignon Blanc Kick Vineyard Tasting Notes: The 2013 Sauvignon Blanc Kick Vineyard was made with the Musqué clone. It displays more exotic, tropical fruit notes as well as honeydew melons in a medium-bodied, fresh, ripe, stunningly proportioned style. It sees one-fourth new French oak and the rest primarily stainless steel and older barrels. Drink now-2018. The brilliant Russell Bevan has proven he can make just as compelling Pinot Noirs, Sauvignon Blancs, Syrahs and Chardonnays in Sonoma as he does in Napa with Bordeaux varietals. This is a remarkable lineup of wines from some amazing vineyard sites. I tasted six Pinot Noir cuvées, every one of them stunning.

Domaine Paul BLANCK

In 1610, Hans Blanck, the family’s Austrian ancestor, acquired the first vines in Alsace. Jacques Philippe Blanck obtained a medal for his work as a winemaker in 1846, and 1927 found Paul Blanck and a handful of other winemakers being recognized as the driving force behind turning the site of Schlossberg into a pilot site for a future grand cru. In 1975, with the creation of the grand cru appellation in Alsace, Bernard and Marcel Blanck, the sons, played a determining role. Schlossberg was the first to be assigned this appellation. A new generation of winemakers—Frédéric and Philippe—entered the scene in 1985. Their main preoccupation is respecting the vines and the soil upon which they are planted. The domain has increased its surface area from 24 to 36 hectares with five grand crus accounting for more than a third.

The Blanck Family

This is a reality for the Blancks. The proof is that two generations of Blancks work hand in hand. The sons, Frédéric and Philippe, work incessantly under the supervision of Bernard and Marcel to improve their wines and move in new directions. The Blancks are environmently conscious. The 36 hectares of the Domaine are farmed with traditional copper and sulphur treatment and no fertilizer. All the vineyards are plowed several times in the year. Indigene grass is grown to develop the biodiversity of the fauna. The Blanck’s main objective is to create wines of pure pleasure for food and wine lovers throughout the world.

The thirty different wines from the property can be separated into three main types: fruit-driven wines which enable the wine-lover to discover the aromatic finesse of the Alsace grape varieties; “terroir” wines with stony characteristics from the single vineyard’s wines and grand crus which express the plenitude of limestone, the sweetness and firmness of clay, the harmony of manganese an the racy bouquet and power coming from silica, and nectars wines—late-harvested and “grains nobles” wines, issued from over- ripe grapes which are mysterious, opulent, complex and exuberant.

2010 Grand Cru Schlossberg Riesling Soil: An exceptional vineyard: at 200-300m, the Schlossberg slope lies on the Kaysersberg migmatites and the intruding granite of Thannenkirch, of which the arenaceous character provides very fertile, mineral soil, composed both of coarse sand and clay. The variety of minerals (potassium, magnesium, fluorine, phosphorus) determines the finesse and aromatic complexity of its wines. Schlossberg slopes so steeply that vines are grown on terraces.

Vinification: The juice is extracted with infinite care in our air-bag press. The slow, gentle pressing avoids crushing the stalks and pips. The must starts fermenting of its own accord thanks to the natural yeast present in the juice, and the fermentation generally lasts from 4 to 10 weeks. It is carried out in stainless-steel vats equipped with temperature control, a medium which maximises the expression of this variety’s aromas. The wine is matured on its lees in large oak barrels for 12 months. This lees-contact contributes richness to the wine. What is more, the oxygen which passes through the pores of the wood brings about a gentle oxidization of the wine, and the subsequent opening up of its aromas. The wine is then bottled and aged for 2 to 3 further years before being offered for sale. This bottle-aging also plays a role in the wine’s development. Here, the opposite of oxidization happens: thanks to certain reactions in the oxygen-free environment, the bouquet develops and takes on subtler nuances.

Tasting note: Color: Pale straw. Nose: White grapefruits, chamomile, mint. Palate: Fruity, ripe and bright, with juicy flavors of tropical fruit and minerals. Great balance and very good cut, with a long finish repeating the minty quality.

Donelan Wines We are a small, boutique winery in Sonoma County producing Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Grenache, and Roussanne. We have elected to prize quality over all other factors. Simply put, we think wine should taste great – with every vintage and every grape, this is our ultimate priority and our greatest motivation.

We believe that the best wines are not made but discovered and we take pride in the responsibility and privilege of distilling for your pleasure the greatest qualities and natural variations in a vineyard and a variety. We start with great terroir, because site trumps all variables, and we proceed with extreme selectivity, conscientious winemaking, and extensive blending trials.

Joe Donelan Founder & Joe Nielsen Winemaker Joe Donelan, founder of Donelan Family Wines, began his journey of wine discovery in the 1980s, led by an inspired sommelier at Toppers Restaurant on Nantucket. This life-changing education elevated his wine acumen from discerning drinker to master oenophile.

At the time, Donelan was working as a vice president at paper broker A.T. Clayton, but shortly thereafter he succumbed to the seductive call of California’s winemaking regions. With a vision for creating superior-quality, terroir-driven Syrah and Rhone- varietals, Joe established relationships with unique Sonoma County vineyards and brought together a production team to found Donelan Family Wines, originally known as Pax Wine Cellars.

As founder, Joe prides himself on seeing the grand possibilities. A masterful mix of creative thinking, endless dedication and precise instinct enable Donelan Family Wines to create acclaimed wines that epitomize the truest expression of Sonoma County terroir.

Joe Nielsen got his start in winemaking not in the California fields or a university greenhouse, but in the backyard of his parent’s Michigan home. A young entrant into college, Joe was studying pre-med at Michigan State when a friend suggested he consider a future in winemaking. After pouring over English-translated books on French viticulture, the 18-year-old cleared an acre of his parent’s backyard and set to work planting his own vineyard. Never looking back, Joe completed the Michigan State winemaking program at an accelerated rate and received a Bachelor of Science in Horticulture, after which he spent a year with a Michigan winery before pursuing his winemaking dreams in California. As a self-proclaimed “cellar rat,”” Joe spent the next few years learning every aspect of the winemaking business with a Napa Valley producer before joining Donelan Winemaker Tyler Thomas in 2009 to hone his craft with terroir-driven wines.

2012 Sonoma County Nancie Chardonnay The 2012 vintage allowed for flavors to develop gradually, producing a wine of incredible depth, uncompromising energy, and a long finish. As our blend matures, so does our ability to produce a supple, layered Chardonnay. The wine, predominately fermented in neutral oak, finds balance with choice coopers that offer enticing spice that mirrors some of the cool-climate flavors and minerality that these vineyards produce. The nose offers immediate aromas of pear, wildflower honey, fresh linen, and lemon meringue pie. Consistent with 2010 and 2011, the mouth feel combines surprising freshness with ample richness, making the wine versatile to pair with food or enjoy on its own.

This Chardonnay is made from a quartet of cool, Sonoma County vineyards. Two are perched on Sonoma Mountain and influenced by cool ocean breezes, rocky soils, and high elevation. The third is a Russian River Valley property bearing 30+ year old vines that grow a wine both rich and mineral in texture. The fourth and newest to the blend is a unique parcel nestled in a hillside in the cool Green Valley. Together, these properties showcase an enticing ensemble of slow-ripening vineyards in California sunshine.

Egelhoff Wines

Bob Egelhoff is the winemaker for Egelhoff Wines. A seasoned professional, he has over 30 years of experience in the California wine industry. Egelhoff grew up in Orange County, California, and chose to attend UC Davis to study agricultural economics. Fascinated with the viticulture and enology program, he took all of the winegrowing and winemaking classes that were offered, became a teaching assistant and entered the world of farming grapes.

Initially, Egelhoff worked as a vineyard manager and conducted experiments in the field for his professors at UC Davis. This led him to the Napa Valley and a job with Beckstoffer Vineyards. In 1988, Egelhoff joined the newly started Merryvale Vineyards as assistant winemaker. While at Merryvale, Egelhoff managed production for more than a dozen nationally acclaimed brands including Harlan, Pahlmeyer, Oakford and Hartwell.

In 1993, Egelhoff began his career as a consulting winemaker for Tom Eddy and Robert Craig. David Arthur Vineyards, Amizetta Vineyards, Richard Partridge, Axios and Phelan Vineyard soon followed. He continues to make wine for Amizetta Vineyards and Axios Wines.

An essential philosophy behind Egelhoff’s approach to winemaking is his hands-on involvement in directing vineyard and winemaking practices and closely monitoring the results. As a consulting winemaker, Egelhoff oversees the estate vineyards and contracts with additional vineyards for his clients. Egelhoff manages the entire operation from harvest to bottling. Egelhoff’s winemaking is aimed towards producing full-bodied, elegant wine. Controlling all aspects of viticultural practices and combining old world and modern enological techniques enables him to produce wines that accurately reflect their grape source.

After two decades in the wine industry, Egelhoff and his wife, Marianna, decided to produce their own label. Grapes were selected from estate-owned hillside vineyards from owners Egelhoff had worked with over the years. In 1999, the first vintage of Egelhoff went into the crusher. A few more wines have been added along the way – including a Tawny Port, a Napa Valley Cabernet under the Walton Label, a Riesling and a venture down under blending Egelhoff Cabernet with Australian Shiraz to create the unique wine Two Worlds.

Egelhoff enjoys his family, golfing, abalone diving, fishing and traveling. He lives in St. Helena with his wife and two children.

Ehlers Estate Ehlers Estate represents the unique fusion of an outstanding winegrowing estate, environmental consciousness and international philanthropy. The historic and diverse Napa Valley vineyard of Ehlers Estate is certified organic and is cultivated using biodynamic farming techniques to produce a small portfolio of exceptional estate-grown wines. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the sale of these wines go to support the Leducq Foundation, a highly regarded, not-for-profit foundation dedicated to funding international cardiovascular research.

In 1985, French entrepreneur and philanthropist Jean Leducq began acquiring small parcels of vineyard land in Napa Valley’s acclaimed St. Helena appellation. A dedicated vintner and wine lover, his goal was to found a contiguous Napa Valley estate—in the classic French style—capable of producing wines with the power, grace and sophistication of the great Bordeaux houses.

By 2001, Leducq had joined the original 14-acre Ehlers Estate property with contiguous vineyard parcels to create a 42-acre estate. At the heart of this estate is the historic stone winery built by Bernard Ehlers in 1886. As a tribute to the site’s long winemaking history, Leducq and his wife, Sylviane, revived the original Ehlers Estate name beginning with the winery’s inaugural 2000 vintage Cabernet Sauvignon. The following year, Ehlers Estate produced its first Merlot, and with the 2002 vintage, the winery added its flagship, estate-grown 1886 Cabernet Sauvignon bottling to its portfolio of handcrafted Bordeaux-varietal wines.

Kevin Morrisey, Winemaker & General Manager

Kevin Morrisey is a true international spirit whose dual French/ American citizenship enabled him to intern in Pomerol for legendary Jean-Claude Berrouet at Château Pétrus. Morrisey’s winemaking style and pedigree, particularly with Bordeaux- varietal wines, is renowned following many years as winemaker for Stags’ Leap Winery.

Morrisey cherishes his family life and manages to work a little wine into every table setting. He and his wife, Karin, have been educating their two daughters in Waldorf schools in the Napa Valley since 2002. They are all French/American dual citizens – international at heart – and see life at Ehlers as harmonious with their reverence for the earth, sustainable living, and winemaking excellence.

Armen Khachaturian, National Sales Director, Ehlers Estate

Armen Khachaturian is the National Sales Director for Ehlers Estate, a prestigious winery in Napa Valley, just north of downtown St. Helena, known for its Cabernet Sauvignon “1886.” He is responsible for all sales and distribution of Ehlers Estate wines outside the state of California. Armen has been with Ehlers Estate since 2010 and along with his warm personality, brings a wealth of sales experience from Hanzell Vineyards, The Henry Wine Group and Landmark Vineyards. www.ehlersestate.com

2010 Ehlers Estate One Twenty Over Eighty Cabernet Sauvignon

Winemaker’s Notes: A voluptuous, full-bodied, heavyweight Cabernet Sauvignon from the loamy benchland soils of our north St. Helena estate vineyard. The wine is layered with blackberry, black plums, dark chocolate, tobacco, very subtle sumac, and wrapped seamlessly in velvety tannins that create a structure and balance that is “classically Ehlers.” Compelling and complex, this is a fine Bordeaux style Cabernet blend that will age for decades.

Vintage Notes: After three years of drought, the 2010 vintage rolled in with an unseasonably cold wet spring and left the vines with plenty of ground water. The buds came out a full two weeks later than normal, and the late season growth continued through flowering, fruit-set, and clear into ripening. 2010 was the coolest summer on record for the Napa Valley and the grapes developed slowly to full maturity without any adverse influences from the weather. Ehlers is nestled in one of the warmer parts of the Napa Valley, and without exception, our grapes sweetened up beautifully with small berries, thick skins, and intense flavors. The resulting wines are outstanding.

Sonoma Brut The Sonoma Brut is dominated by Pinot Noir, a stylistic decision enabling the complex aromatic and palate profile that this red- skinned grape contributes to Brut cuvées.

Tasting Notes Delicate pear and floral notes backed by toasty almond. On the palate, one finds lively citrus, toast and apple flavors overlaid with persistent effervescence, a creamy mid-palate and toasty finish.

Blanc De Noirs Our Blanc de Noirs is predominantly made from hand-harvested Pinot Noir grapes, the hallmarks of which are a vibrant red fruit character. The creamy palate and rosy hue are a result of a small addition of Vin Gris, which was blended into the base cuvée.

Tasting Notes Bright strawberry and black cherry aromas with subtle vanilla highlights. Creamy cherry, lemon and cola flavors combine with a lush palate, lively bubbles and a persistent finish.

Reserva Heredad Reserva Heredad is the estate’s crown jewel—our tête de cuvée—a Cava blended from just Macabeo and Parellada that enjoys aging on the lees for 30 months or longer and riddling by hand.

Tasting Notes The opening aromas are from aging on the lees, lightly smokey, with touches of biscuit or bread, which are followed by hints of honey, fruit and flower petals. The palate is excellent, fruity and fullof flavor, with dried fruits delivering a delightful sense of abundance.

2005 Royal Cuvee This Brut blend of two-thirds Pinot Noir and one-third Chardonnay offers the delicacy and exuberance of perfectly ripe fruit well- integrated with complexities derived from over five years of aging on the yeast. The inaugural vintage of “Royal Cuvee” was first served to King Juan Carlos I and Queen Sofia of Spain, during their visit to California in 1987.

Tasting Notes Ripe stone fruit medley and citrus intermingle with toast, butter and yeasty aromas on the nose of this well-developed yet vibrantly fresh sparkling wine. Creamy textures with hints of butterscotch and almonds support delicious flavors of pears, apples and lemons. The elegantly structured and long creamy finish is simply irresistible.

Gamble Family Vineyards Napa native Tom Gamble is a farmer first. “My most lasting memory of childhood is dirt. Playing in dirt. Walking in dust behind the tractor. Wandering aimlessly on foot, horseback and mini-bike all summer long—enjoying everything the dirt and our climate gives to life.” Tom’s boyhood days often began before sunrise; herding cattle, working irrigation lines and emulating older ranchers and farmers from the back of the pack. Tom purchased his first vineyard in 1981. He is the first member of his family to make wine, but hopes he is not the last to work the land. Gamble Family Vineyards is his legacy for future generations, inspired by the hard work of generations past.

Tom Gamble is a farmer first, which is fitting. Good wine begins on the vine.

2013 Gamble Sauvignon Blanc, Yountville

VARIETAL: Sauvignon Blanc APPELLATION: Yountville

VINEYARD: Gamble Vineyard

NOTES: The twelve-acre Gamble Vineyard sits at the northerly edge of the Yountville Appellation in the geographic center of Napa Valley. This superb site, framed by rugged mountains to the east and west and bound by two rivers, is warm enough to develop Sauvignon Blanc’s tropical fruit flavors, yet cool enough to retain its natural fruit balance and crispness. Tom Gamble chose his bud wood by massale selection, a traditional practice of obtaining cuttings from great vineyards possessing highly desirable traits. Half of the Gamble vineyard is planted to the Sauvignon Musque clone, a third generation of the original bud wood brought from the Loire in the 1950s. The other half is planted to the Preston (Lou Preston) clone, descended from the Graves region of Bordeaux. We farm organically to achieve healthy and balanced vines. Our fruit is hand-harvested cold, in the early hours of the day, and taken directly to the press to preserve fruit and flavor integrity.

Lively aromas of honeyed elderflower, spiced apple and citrus marmalade. Crisp and refreshing acidity married with an unctuous oily mouth-feel support flavors of baked pear, lime and jasmine. The finish is long with complex mineral, white pepper and citrus notes. This wine will be just as delicious 3 to 6 years from now.

Gemstone Vineyard The 16-acre Estate Vineyard is situated on a gentle, west facing slope in the Yountville AVA. Gemstone’s first vintage was produced in 1997, when the current clones of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Chardonnay were planted. Since it’s inception, Gemstone has been a family owned vineyard that produces a small production of Cabernet Sauvignon, a Bordeaux style Estate Red Wine and a Chardonnay, all carefully crafted under the guidance of their winemaker, Philippe Melka. Gemstone produces less than 2,000 cases per vintage.

Amy Marks, Principle Michael and Carole Marks, proprietors of Gemstone Vineyard and longtime residents of Northern California, started spending time up in Napa over a decade ago. With a busy career in technology, and two grown children running their own businesses, the entrepreneurial spirit running through the family and their shared love of wine paved the path for the family to purchase of Gemstone Vineyard in 2007. Amy, daughter of the proprietors, recently moved back to CA after having lived in New York City since 2005 running her successful catering business. With a background in food and hospitality it was recognized a natural fit when the opportunity arose to become more involved in all the aspects of the family’s wine business.

2012 Hall Napa Valley Merlot

Merlot tends to ripen early, so we selected fruit from cooler vineyard sites for a result that is vibrant and expressive. The Merlot farmed at Hardester Ranch, with its gravelly hillside topography, offers weight, concentration and a rich choco- late character.

The wine is deep garnet in color — inviting notes of wet stone, sun-warmed raspberries, and a slight cooling note of fresh fennel. Its medium body delivers soft, supple tannins that are a distinctive and prized feature of our Merlot. The wine finish offers notes of baking spices. Drink now and over the next five years.

Herb Lamb In 1987, Jennifer and Herb Lamb purchased seven acres of rocky, native hillside property in the Napa Valley, at 800 feet elevation, on the eastern hillsides of St. Helena, just below Howell Mountain. This cool-climate eastern facing vineyard produces elegant and beautifully structured Cabernet Sauvignon.

The Lambs were thrilled with the quality of wine and outstanding reviews which their Cabernet was receiving in selling their grapes to the Karl Lawrence and Colgin labels, and in 1997 they started producing their signature label, HL Vineyards, with only 50 cases. Now, with full control of the crop, Winemaker Michael Trujillo has created over 300 cases of the signature and sought-after HL Vineyards Cabernet from this established vineyard.

Jennifer Lamb, Owner Jennifer, from Pasadena, CA, and Herb Lamb met while attending Cal Poly San Luis Obispo in the early 1970’s. They moved back to Herb’s hometown of Napa and took jobs in wine hospitality, wine production and vineyards, gaining innumerable wine industry friends and knowledge.

2011 HL Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon The 2011 HL Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon is a restrained vintage in terms of ripeness and alcohol – more elegant and structured, instead of powerful, with softer tannins, higher acids and great balance. In the nose, there are red-fruit characters of dried cherry, currant and cranberry, with toasty, nutty and vanillin notes. In the mouth, the red fruits predominate, featuring red and black cherry with notes of plum, tobacco, cinnamon and spice. Hints of vanilla and roasted coffee linger with cherry and cocoa. There is a good after taste, with fine oak integration. The wine finishes clean and bright with mocha and black cherry overtones.

Winemaker Michael Trujillo says “2011 gave us pretty wines as opposed to powerful, overwhelming wines. They are fresh, clean and complex with focused acidity and lower pH, but lots of varietal expression. It was a very challenging vintage - a winemaker’s vintage. But it’s a sleeper vintage that will definitely improve with aeration or a year or two in the bottle.” This wine will pair beautifully with grilled salmon or roasted pork chops with a glaze or sweet, fruity chutney.

2012 Hill Family Estate Barrel Blend The Hill Family Estate Barrel Blend is put together with the help of Kyle Knox, a great surfer and a wine professional, who loved the idea of “being in the barrel” as both a wine term, and a surfing term.

2012 Cliff Lede Cabernet Sauvignon, Stags Leap District Vintage The 2012 vintage was a glorious year for Napa Valley. A frost-free and uniform bud break was followed by steady spring weather during flowering, allowing for even fruit set. Summer conditions were moderate, with warm days, cool nights, and minimal heat spikes, ideal for slow and steady grape maturation. The wines show exceptional balance with concentrated ripe fruit, complemented by bright acidity and supple, yet intense, structure. Skillful crop thinning and an early autumn of consistently warm days helped the vineyards achieve optimal ripeness.

Winemaking Hand harvested in the cool early morning hours, the fruit was immediately subjected to rigorous selection by our three-tiered sorting process, including our cutting edge optical sorter, with a goal of eliminating less-than-perfect berries. The selected fruit was gently delivered to specially-designed truncated tanks via gravity by our crane system, minimizing disruption of berry integrity. Cold soaks lasted approximately five days, and fermentations were managed by a combination of délestage and pumpovers. Extended maceration ranging from three to four weeks fine-tuned tannin profiles, allowing us to build mouth feel and wine complexity. The wine was aged in French oak barrels, 50% of which were new, for twenty-one months.

Martinelli Winery & Vineyards The Martinelli family has been farming grapes and making wine in Sonoma County since 1860, but it wasn’t until the 1980’s that Lee Martinelli Sr. started his own winery. The Martinelli vineyards are located in the Russian River Valley, Green Valley of Russian River, and Sonoma Coast Appellations. These vineyards are meticulously farmed by Lee Martinelli Sr., and his two sons, Lee Jr. and George, continuing five generations of the proud family legacy of care-taking the land. Winemaker Bryan Kvamme handles the wine with true handcrafted artistry. The wines are neither hot nor cold stabilized, are un-fined and unfiltered, and clarified only by racking before bottling.

Regina Martinelli – Executive VP Regina Martinelli grew up a farmer’s daughter in the Russian River Valley. She comes from a long lineage of farmers, starting with her Great Grandfather Giuseppe Martinelli, who planted their flagship vineyards in 1885. Regina’s father and brothers exclusively farm all of the family ranches. Starting at age six, Regina learned the life of a rural farmer by tying vines alongside her three older siblings. This servitude continued until she escaped by attending college.

After college, a Master’s Degree in Organizational Development, and ten years in Corporate America, Regina brought her experience back to her roots, where she continues to share the family history and promote the exceptional quality for which Martinelli Winery is known.

2010 Giuseppe and Luisa Zinfandel (Russian River Valley) Vineyard Character The year was 1899 when Giuseppe and Luisa Martinelli planted three acres of Zinfandel in the Russian River Valley. The old vineyard is now known as Jackass Hill and remains the steepest non-terraced hillside vineyard in Sonoma County. Nearly one century later, Giuseppe and Luisa’s grandson, Lee Martinelli Sr., followed in their footsteps by planting a Zinfandel vineyard. He grafted bud wood from the centurion vines onto devigorating rootstocks and planted them one meter by two meters apart, equating to about 2,000 vines per acre, on a rocky knoll above the Martinelli Winery.

The “Giuseppe & Luisa” vineyard is trained on a vertical trellis system with the fruit hanging just 24 inches above the ground. The grapes are thinned down to between two and three pounds of fruit per vine. The grapes are picked between 25 and 26 degrees brix. After picking, the whole berries undergo a long cool fermentation to generate skin contact and expose fruit character and are fermented with wild yeast. The juice is transferred to small oak barrels with a touch of residual sugar remaining to complete the fermentation process in barrel until dry. It rests in 33% new French oak on its gross lees for ten months.

Tasting Notes The 2010 Giuseppe and Luisa Zinfandel is bursting with aromas of boysenberry, brambly strawberry, and nectarine fruit. This is a supple Zinfandel with velvety blackberry and flinty plum flavors and a richness that fills your mouth and lingers.

Merry Edwards Winery

In 1997, Merry Edwards established her eponymous brand with a focus on producing Pinot Noir from the finest vineyards in Sonoma County’s Russian River Valley. In 2008, she and her husband, Ken Coopersmith, completed their winery on the site of Coopersmith Vineyard.

Ken was her helpmate in the installation of her first vineyard, Meredith Estate, in 1998. This was followed by Coopersmith in 2001 and Georganne in 2006. Long-term leases were negotiated for Warren’s Hill, Flax Vineyard and Cresta d’Oro, an extension of Meredith. Although most of those earlier plantings were Pinot Noir, in 2014 new Sauvignon Blanc developments were under way. At Merry and Ken’s new home property in Sebastopol, a Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vineyard is being planted as their Full Circle Ranch.

Along with two regional blends, six vineyard-designated Pinot Noirs are bottled. In 2001, a barrel-fermented Sauvignon Blanc was added to the portfolio. Merry is also now making a vineyard- designate Chardonnay from the venerable Olivet Lane vineyard. In 2013, Merry’s 40th year as a winemaker, she was not only inducted into the Culinary Institute of America’s Vintners Hall of Fame, she also won the coveted James Beard Award for Best Wine, Beer or Spirits Professional in the United States, just the fourth woman to be so honored.

Joe Gambrell - National Sales Liaison Joe Gambrell’s background includes 20 years in the distribution, supplier and restaurant industry. Before joining Merry Edwards Winery as National Sales Liaison, he was Vice President of Sales for Grapevine and Sales Manager for The Country Vintner, both in South Carolina.

2012 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

This wine combines grapes from six different vineyards located across the range of Russian River Valley. Once our vineyard- designate blends are composed, the remaining declassified lots find a home in this wine. Placement is dependent on the individual profile of each lot of wine produced. This blend epitomizes the core personality of the entire Russian River Valley -- deep, kaleidoscopic fruit and a broad palate. These characteristics are created by the well-drained soils and the coastal fog intrusion unique to our region.

On first impression, the aroma is pure fruit -- fresh blackberry, dark plum, black raspberry and huckleberry. Add to this currants, strawberry jam, cassis and cherry pie. Sarsaparilla, Lapsang Souchong tea, cocoa, roasted-toasty oak and a bit of vanilla bean round out this Pinot’s complex persona.

Expectation is high and the palate does not disappoint. The ripe fruit entry flows to a full, weighty mouthfeel. The finish is firm, with sufficient acidity to create a backbone that deserves aging.

Peju Winery

It was the love of farming and a passion for wine that brought Tony and Herta Peju to the Napa Valley nearly 30 years ago. After selling their nursery business in southern California to purchase a 30-acre wild, overgrown vineyard in Rutherford, the couple embarked upon a journey to transform the land and its bounty from a vision into a reality. The family’s humble winemaking efforts began inside their garage, then a makeshift tasting room, and have since grown into one of Napa Valley’s most notable landmarks and a celebrated 35,000-case wine operation.

Daughters Lisa and Ariana Peju have also joined the family business, paving the way into the future. The Peju vineyards are a combination of certified organic and sustainable, with the goal of achieving organic certification for all in the next few years. In addition, Peju is one of only 21 wineries to earn certification as a Napa Green Winery and Bay Area Green Business.

Still focused on an early commitment to produce high-quality wines that exhibit a graceful combination of power and elegance, Peju prides itself on offering the majority of its wine collection directly to guests in the tasting room and through the Peju Wine Club.

Lisa Peju, Peju Ambassador The Peju’s Rutherford vineyard has been home to Lisa since she was six years old. It was then that she moved with her parents from Southern California to wine country to begin a life devoted to growing grapes, producing high-quality wines and finding new and innovative ways to market the family brand.

Lisa spent her childhood attending Napa Valley schools during the day and tending to the vineyard in the evenings and on weekends. It wasn’t uncommon to see Lisa and her sister Ariana driving the family four-wheeler along the property’s dirt paths with piles of grapes in the back bed.

After graduating from St. Helena High School, Lisa first attended Marymount College in Palos Verdes and then U.C. Santa Barbara to study marketing and graphic design with plans of becoming a computer animator. But a summer trip to Paris in 1999 to study French at Sorbonne University with Ariana planted the seeds for another calling. Lisa enjoyed promoting Peju’s wines so much that she decided to change career paths and join the family business as a marketing and public relations ambassador.

From beyond the Napa Valley, Lisa brings Peju wines to homes and businesses across the world.

Ramey Wine Cellars

David Ramey started his career in wine with little more than a degree in enology and a dream. Then, after nearly two decades of creating benchmark wines for such California wineries as Matanzas Creek, Chalk Hill, Dominus and Rudd, David Ramey and his wife Carla founded Ramey Wine Cellars in 1996. “Owning one’s own winery is the dream of every winemaker,” David says, looking back on the path that led him to build his own. It took time, planning and a profound understanding of how best to bring together all the elements—from the grapes, to the winery materials, and a top-notch team of professionals—to make it all work.

The winery produces authentic, hand-crafted wines made in an Old World tradition--coupled with New World innovation and California terroir. Owned exclusively by David and his wife Carla, grapes are sourced from vineyards with which David has worked for many years. Their next project will be to purchase land and develop their own vineyards.

Consistently rated among the best wines in California, the winery remains committed to Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Syrah as its primary varietals. Winery tours and tastings are available by appointment.

Cameron Frey Cameron joined Ramey Wine Cellars prior to the 2002 harvest and has since been an integral part of crafting our award-winning wines. Cameron was born and raised in Lodi, California before heading off to California State University-Fresno. He graduated with a B.S. in Enology and Chemistry in 1991 and promptly joining Robert Mondavi Winery, where he was a Master Lab Technician prior to becoming Assistant Winemaker. In 1996, Cameron joined Gallo of Sonoma Winery as Assistant Winemaker, where he focused on Gallo’s first high-end Chardonnay, Zinfandel and Syrah programs. In 2001, Cameron and his wife set off to Italy where Cameron worked as harvest winemaker at Casa Girelli Winery in Puglia, Italy. Once he joined David Ramey and began building the team at Ramey Wine Cellars, Cameron’s responsibilities have ranged from management of all production tasks to hands on cellar work, development of winemaking procedures, schedules, budgets and safety programs, as well as occasionally lending a hand to sales and marketing. In addition to managing the production team at Ramey Wine Cellars, Cameron enjoys sailing on San Francisco Bay and coaching his twin sons’ baseball team.

2011 Red Mare Cabernet Sauvignon The 2011 vintage was the coolest and wettest vintage that vintners have seen in the Napa Valley for many years. Extensive crop dropping, leaf removal was key to bringing in the best quality fruit. In the winery, slow and intensive sorting combined with aggressive saignee, or a blending off of the juice, further concentrated the wines. As a result of this intensive work, we are very proud of our 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine is very lively and expressive in the nose, offering beautiful and ripe cherries, currants, and fresh raspberries. There are lovely layers of chocolate, cassis bud, rhubarb, clove and vanilla in the nose. In the mouth, this wine is big and mouth filling with supple tannins and a delicate center. These soft but rich tannins lead gently to a lengthy finish. A strong but balanced acidity pulls all these elements together, making this wine a perfect companion with a variety of foods. As this wine sits in the glass or preferably, the decanter, it gets better and better; indication that this wine is another age worthy wine for your cellar.

Fred Schweiger purchased his first 8 acres in 1960 for $250 an acre. Inspiration to plant the “King” and “Queen” of vines begins by the late 1970s. During the 1980s, Schweiger fruit was sought by premium wineries like Joe Cafaro, ZD, Newton and Stags Leap Winery.

In 1994, Schweiger’s son, Andy—a UC Davis grad—came on board as the winemaker. Today, all 35 acres of the sustainably-farmed fruit is estate bottled for the Schweiger Vineyards label. Along with noble varietals of Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, micro-blocks of Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Merlot and Petite Syrah are farmed for a proprietary blend.

Vintage & Winemaker's Notes: The 2009 vintage started out with a very mild spring which continued into summer. Periodic heat spikes throughout the summer gently pushed the grapes to ripeness while not being so hot as to create undue stress or sunburn. The pace of harvest was very relaxed, lasting over eight weeks from the start of white varieties to the last Cabernet berry. Late rains caused many growers to pick early, but following the timeless of Douglas Addams, “Don’t Panic!”, we let the remaining, loose clustered and tough skinned Cabernet Sauvignon hang through the rain, only to gain an even more intense color and flavor. For our efforts, we have been rewarded with a rich, full- bodied Cabernet, deep in color. The nose of the wine is lively with essences of dark berries, plum, dark chocolate, and toasty oak. The sweet, supple entry crescendos into a deeply intense middle; followed by a pleasant, velvety, lingering finish.

2011 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Dark red/black in color, the nose gives an immediate aroma of raspberries and warm baking spices, leading into cassis and clove. The palate has elements of pie crust, with smooth, silky tannins and well balanced acidity.

HARVEST & WINEMAKING The grapes used to produce this wine are from the best growers in the best appellations in Napa Valley: our own estate and Tonella vineyards, both in Rutherford; Stagecoach in the Atlas Peak AVA; Morisoli in Rutherford; Lamoreaux in the Oak Knoll District; Henry Brothers on Howell Mountain; Healy Vineyard in St. Helena; Beckstoffer Georges III in Rutherford; and Christian in the Coombsville AVA. Each site was harvested at its ideal brix, ranging between 21.8 and 27, and picked over the course of three weeks, from October 12 –November 2. The fruit was hand sorted before undergoing a 1-2 day cold soak. The lots were individually fermented in small batches, with gentle pumpovers 2-3 times per day. The wine underwent malolactic fermentation in barrel, where it was aged for 20 months before being racked and bottled in June 2013. The wine rested in our underground cellar until its release in March 2014.

THE 2011 VINTAGE 2011 was a challenging vintage for Napa Valley, but it was no different than a typical Rhône vintage, as a late and wet spring crawled into a cool summer. We finally got the heat we had been waiting for, only to play chicken with the rain in October. This was a vintage when it paid to know your producer, because only when the tide goes out do you see who is swimming naked. We are very lucky to work with some amazing, expert growers who did what it took to get fabulous quality in 2011. So while quantity overall was low, the fruit made for well-balanced wines with good intensity, structure and texture with a brightness of flavor.

Siduri Wines Siduri Wines was founded by Texas natives Adam & Dianna Lee. Under the Siduri label, Adam produces distinct Pinot Noirs from vineyards up and down the West Coast of North America. Adam & Dianna (along with Dianna’s family, the Novys) also founded Novy Family Winery where he produces a range of wines, focusing on Syrah. Both Siduri and Novy have achieved great acclaim from publications such as Wine Spectator, the Wine Advocate, and the New York Times.

Adam Lee, winemaker Adam Lee was born in Austin, Texas and (several years later) Dianna Novy was born in Ennis, Texas. After working in various wine and food jobs, they met in Dallas at Neiman Marcus working in the wine department. After months of dating, they moved out to California with $24,000 and a dream to start a winery. Through a combination of good fortune and hard work they produced their first wine in 1994. This wine received great critical acclaim and they were on their way. In addition to owning two wineries (Siduri and Novy), the Lees have three beautiful children.

Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir The 2012 Siduri Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir is a surprising wine. That’s been the general reaction as the wine seems darker than we’ve come to expect from the Coast. The reasons for this are two-fold. First, the Pratt Vineyard—Sexton Road part of the blend comes from a vineyard between Sebastopol and Occidental. Many of the vineyards in this area produce somewhat bigger wines than is expected (remember Ridge’s Occidental Zinfandels?). Second, the 828 clone at the Camp Castro Vineyard tends to produce a darker wine than many other clones. What’s interes7ng is that these two wines both have more color than they have weight, and that seems to be the cases with the final Sonoma Coast blend.

The 2012 Siduri Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir is a darkly colored Pinot Noir. It possesses strong red and black fruit flavors, but underlying these fruit flavors are the forest floor and herbal nuances we’ve come to expect from the Coast. The wine is big, but not unduly heavy, and should only improve and become more complex with several years in a cool cellar.

2013 Sangiacomo Vineyard Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast

Our 2013 Sangiacomo Vineyard Pinot noir exhibits the creamy textures and dark red fruit flavors that fans have enjoyed for the past 10 years. This wine is nicely balanced with seductive aromas of dark cherry, black tea, and earthy forest floor and an extra level of elegance and finesse. 2013 is a superb Pinot noir vintage and we are especially proud of this wine.

2013 Gap’s Crown Vineyard Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast Gap’s Crown Vineyard has steep slopes and rocky soils that cause significant vine stress, and the resulting wines are concentrated, with complex flavors, and phenomenal structure. The grapes were fermented partially with stems included, providing additional verve and structure. Dark cherry, black tea, and baking spice aromas lead to hints of chocolate and earth.

2012 Beckstoffer Vineyard Georges III Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley

The 2012 vintage of this wine is impressive. It has an added layer of complexity, while showing the lush textures, full body and lingering flavors of the previous three vintages.

St. Helena Winery

Saint Helena Winery is a small, private winery specializing in estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignons. The winery was founded in 2000, and is situated in the St. Helena appellation of Napa Valley. Winemaker Aaron Pott and Elizabeth Tangney guide the creation of three estate Cabernets and one Sonoma Mountain Chardonnay.

The estate is not open to the public, rather by invitation only. This is a working vineyard and winery in a serene country setting with accommodations for a relaxing wine tasting in the estate house, or on the veranda overlooking the Valley floor and Mayacamas Mountain range.

The winery was founded with the 2000 vintage of Sympa Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, with one barrel only made by winemaker Mark Herrold. The winery estate is near the historical center of Napa Valley winemaking, adjacent to the properties of early vintners Charles Krug and Jacob Beringer. The founding family purchased the twenty acre vineyard estate in 1994 and proceeded to build a home followed by the winery and guest cottages. They sold fruit to notable neighbors including Opus One and Quintessa and slowly made more wines under the Saint Helena Winery label. Today we make fewer than 1,500 cases of estate Cabernet Sauvignons and one Chardonnay from a special vineyard on Sonoma Mountain.

Our winemakers are Aaron Pott, a St. Helena based Napa Valley consulting winemaker recently named “Winemaker of the Year” by Food & Wine Magazine, and the notable rising star, Elizabeth Tangney. The venerable Jim Barbour consults on our vineyard practices and we farm the estate for a low yield near two tons per acre. www.sthelenawinery.com

Winemaker Notes By Aaron Pott & Elizabeth Tangney Aaron Pott says this wine “whispers of elegance.” Luscious aromas of blueberry and subtle tea leaf evolve into black cherry, plum and violet.

Talbott Sleepy Hollow Estate Vineyard

Purchased by Robb Talbott in 1994 and located in the stunning Santa Lucia Highlands of Monterey, this Central Coast 585-acre hillside vineyard has a predominately east-northeast exposure, which combined with its proximity to the Pacific Ocean, contributes to a cool growing site with moderate vineyard temperatures. This coastal climate gives our grapes the luxury of more hang time, developing greater varietal character. Grapes from this highly regarded World Class Estate are used for Talbott’s Kali Hart, Logan, and Sleepy Hollow Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. From vine to table, please enjoy the fruits of our labor.

Bill Cascio, United States Regional, Canada, Japan Manager Bill has covered the United States for 7+ years, working with fine dining restaurants, wine shops, and Talbott’s national distributors focusing on bringing our esteemed World Class Estate Grown Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to customers throughout the Country.

Talbott Vineyards 2013 Sleepy Hollow Pinot Noir

Vintage: 2013

Appellation: Santa Lucia highlands

Varietal: 100% estate-grown Pinot Noir, Sleepy Hollow Vineyard

Tasting Notes: Like all of our wines, our Talbott Pinot Noir, Sleepy Hollow Vineyard is made exclusively from estate-grown grapes. It has aromas of bright cherry and plum leading to floral and spicy French oak notes. On the palate, this Pinot Noir displays a rich texture, soft, velvety tannins and ripe fruit. Flavors of Bing cherry and red plum lead to a long finish with vanilla oak and lively acidity. This wine defines the Talbott style, with power, richness, integrated oak, and cool-climate acidity.

Vintage Notes: With very little precipitation and ideal growing conditions, the 2013 vintage offered picture-perfect growing conditions in the Santa Lucia Highlands, delivering the second spectacular vintage in a row.

Vineyard: This wine is produced using approximately half Martini clone fruit (planted in 1972), and half Dijon clone grapes (ranging in age from 15-20 years)—all from the finest blocks of Sleepy Hollow Vineyard. Sleepy Hollow is situated on 585 acres of benchland in the Santa Lucia Highlands, 13 miles south of Monterey. The well-drained vineyard features sparse soils comprised of sand, gravel, and granite. These soils reduce yields and create rich, concentrated flavors in the grapes. The vineyard receives morning sunlight from its east-northeast exposure, and lives much of the time in the cool fog and wind from the Pacific Ocean. With a long, cool growing season, the grapes develop the character, intensity and depth of flavor for which the vineyard has become famous.

2012 Torii Mor Estate

The Vintage 2012 had a late start, a trend in 4 of the last 5 vintages, bud-break happened 7 to 10 days late, in late April, when we had a couple weeks of warmer-dryer weather following record rain in March and more to come in May and early June. Bloom happened in the second part of June just before the summer turned really dry, and reached 100 degrees in the beginning of August. Harvest was planned mid October but the warm East winds started dessicating the ripening fruit late September early October, pushing the picking crews in the vineyards the first week of October. The clusters were already small from the poor bloom with half the numbers of berries and most of them small berries, all of them losing their moisture to the winds. In general, sugars were high, flavors on the darker side and he seed tannins not always ripe.

The Wine The 2012 Olson Vineyard aroma is sweet and floral, a mix of roses and honeysuckle on a ripe backdrop of raspberries- strawberry jam. With more air the nose darkens to dark cherries and blackberries and a touch of perfum. The flavors are forward and sweet displaying juicy concentrated dark cherries and dark chocolate notes, finishing by a touch of griotte cherries (red cherries macerated in brandy). The texture is round, sweet and very rich, with silky tannins that envelope the mouth showcasing a lively red and dark berry fruit at its center, yummy! The finish is very long, bright and all about grace, finesse and elegance. This wine is Grand Cru level and the product of 40 year old vines.

Trujillo Cabernet

Michael Trujillo, Winemaker

Growing up on a ranch, Michael Trujillo worked acres of hay, barley and vegetables along with sheep and cattle on land tethered to his family for generations. His grandparents were early century homesteaders of Spanish descent who settled in the Rocky Mountain state of Colorado, where they raised their children in a rich, agricultural life. From a young age, Michael learned the value and reward of working the land: “I feel like I’ve always been in motion, branding cows and driving hay trucks since the age of four. Ranch work taught me old-time craft skills, the love of tinkering with farm equipment and how to grow crops in uncertain weather, all of which prepared me for cultivating grapes and the process of winemaking.” Michael discovered his passion for winemaking in the early 1980s during a spring break from his college studies as an engineer. On a road trip to California, he stayed with a family friend who had a small winery in Napa Valley. It was a lifechanging visit, as Michael began to work alongside Jim Allen and his brother Steve in the planting of Sequoia Grove’s vineyard along the Rutherford Bench.

Today, Michael serves as the Director of Winemaking and President of Sequoia Grove Winery. He is also winemaker and partner at KaDieM Cellars as well as consulting winemaker for Herb Lamb Vineyards and Mattera / Cunat Vineyards.

2012 Trujillo Cabernet Sauvignon The 2012 Trujillo Cabernet derives from an already classic Napa Valley vintage. Everything about the 2012 growing season was perfect in terms of bud break, weather, pace of maturity and harvest itself. The grapes arrived at the winery in impeccable condition, heavenly balanced with natural acidity and structure. A winemakers dream season and vintage.

The 2012 is expressive with its aromas — rich and delicate on the pallet. These aromas jump forth with bright black raspberry, black cherry, plum, and deep characters of dark baker’s chocolate. Great depth in the forefront with a wonderful and giving complexity that unfolds with each swirl. The alcohol is well in check, so the grape characters from this superb 2012 vintage are there to be enjoyed. The abundant flavors come up boldly, but are silky and mouth filling. Generous with black fruit flavors, chocolate hints and a touch of toasty caramel all add to the richness of this wine. Lots of fine grain tannin is present adding a density and weight, yet not interfering with the juiciness of the 2012 Trujillo Cabernet. A wine to enjoy now and well into the next several years. -Michael Trujillo

All five Quintas are among the best in the upper Douro valley. Graham’s also buys grapes from selected farmers in the finest districts. Some of these farmers have been selling their grapes to Graham’s for generations.

SIX GRAPES RESERVE Six Grapes Reserve is one of Graham’s original Port blends. The distinctive depiction of grapes on the label has always been used on the barrels to identify the “Six Grapes” blend. Only grapes from first-class vineyards are used for this mark. Six Grapes is a true expression of Graham’s house style with great richness and complexity.

Six Grapes is a big hearted wine. It is fruity and robust and of superb quality. It is blended to be as similar as possible to a young Vintage Port. It has often been referred to as “the everyday Port for the Vintage Port drinker”. Unique in the Port trade, Graham’s selects its “proprietary blend” ahead of its more commercial styles. All other Port shippers make a lighter style “Reserve” blend out of lots that remain after they have bottled their LBV’s.

Raised in both Northern California and New Jersey, Eric Brandt was interested in cooking at an early age. As a child Brandt would watch cooking shows and try to execute in his childhood kitchen what he had seen on television. Brandt entered his first professional kitchen at the age of 27.

He explains, “I bought a chef’s knife, a pairing knife and a copy of ‘the new professional chef’ (the CIA text book). When I wasn’t in the kitchen, I was reading and studying to try and make sense out of what I had learned the previous day.”

After a year of learning his way around the kitchen at Stage House Inn in Scoth Plains, N.J, Brandt headed to the Ritz-Carlton, Tyson’s Corner. In 2001, he helped open Maestro Restaurant in the RCTC with James Beard award winning chef, Fabio Trabocchi. In 2003, Maestro Restaurant earned the coveted 5-diamond rating from AAA. In 2003, Brandt moved on to help open the Ritz-Carlton Georgetown, in Washington, D.C., before moving to Dallas in 2005 to work as Sous Chef for Dean Fearing at the Mansion on Turtle Creek. Brandt was ultimately promoted to Executive Sous Chef by Fearing’s successor John Tesar.

George Brown Experimental Table

As a little boy, my love of food started because my grandmother was a very good cook. When she visited my house, she would take my breakfast order before I went to bed, following the custom of hotel restaurants. When breakfast was ready, she would wake me up — boy, those were the days. The interest in cooking that my grandparents sparked led me to get a job in a restaurant. As a young teenager, I started working as a dishwasher at IHOP, and when a cook didn’t show up one night, they gave me a shot at cooking on the line. Later that night, I was officially promoted to Cook.

After leaving IHOP, I landed a job at Gallagher’s Steak House, where I worked all the way through high school. By my eighteenth birthday, I was the Kitchen Manager. When I was fourteen, I told my mom I wanted to go to the Culinary Institute of America (CIA), but I had no idea how I would get there or how to pay for it. My grandfather suggested the Army. I joined for two years, and the GI Bill paid for my education. Cooking in the army taught me how to cook for large numbers of people, but I was hungry to prepare higher quality food, and really learn to cook. When I got out of the Army in 1988, I went to work at Actuele, for Master Chef Victor Gieliese, a hard-nosed German who was very disciplined. When I was accepted to the CIA and started school, I knew I was in the right place, surrounded by people who could teach me what I needed to learn, and who loved food and were inspired by food, just like me.

At the time of my externship, The Mansion on Turtle Creek was the hottest place to work, so that is where I applied. I worked under Dean Fearing and learned all about Southwestern Cooking, at a time when it was fresh and new. While working at the Mansion, I met Kent Rathbun, who would become my mentor and friend.

In 1996, Kent and I left the Melrose to work for Dani, a struggling catering company that operated the restaurant and catering operations for the Dallas Museum of Art (DMA). We quickly renamed the restaurant 1717. I was given the Executive Chef job for the restaurant, and Kent handled all the corporate management. In 1999, my wife and I saw an opportunity to start GEORGE Catering, and the rest is history.

What really excites me about food today is finding the perfect products and using them in my cooking. I love using seasonal products, and understanding when and where to use them. As I have gotten older, I have begun to prefer simpler cooking methods and fewer ingredients, letting the food speak for itself.

As chefs and cooks, I think we have to continue to learn to excite ourselves, and pass that excitement along to those for whom we cook. In the George Restaurant days, the inside cover of the menu said, “Food is Life,” but after reflecting on where I have been and my beliefs, it probably should have said, “Food is Love.”

Bruno Davaillon Rosewood Mansion at Turtle Creek

Bruno Davaillon joined The Mansion as executive chef in October 2009. Prior to his arrival, he was the executive chef of Mix, an Alain Ducasse restaurant, at Mix at THEHotel in Las Vegas. During his five-year tenure at Mix, Davaillon earned a Michelin star in 2008 and 2009 and won many accolades for the restaurant, including "Best Restaurant" by Travel + Leisure's design awards.

Davaillon is a native of the Loire Valley in France, where he grew up on a farm and learned to appreciate fresh ingredients. In 1982, he graduated from Lycee Hotelier Chateauroux in Chateauroux, receiving his CAP - BEP Cuisine Classique. For the next five years, Davaillon gained experience as the premier commis in two Paris restaurants—Restaurant La Ligne and Restaurant Lasserre, rated two stars by Michelin at the time. He then moved to London to work in the legendary restaurant Tante Claire, then a three-star Michelin restaurant.

In 1989, Davaillon gained valuable experience in luxury hospitality when he became chef de partie at Chateau de Locguenole, a 30- room Relais & Chateaux property. He went on to serve in the kitchen at other Relais & Chateaux properties, eventually working his way to executive sous chef at Le Ferme Saint Simeon where the restaurant was awarded two Michelin stars.

In 1997, Davaillon brought his talent to America, first working as a private chef for a United Nations Ambassador, then as chef du cuisine at the St. Regis Los Angeles, where he launched Encore, named one of the best 10 new restaurants by Esquire. Davaillon moved up the coast to San Francisco where he joined Restaurant Beaucoup, a fine dining establishment recognized as one of the five best places to eat in San Francisco by Bon Appetit.

Davaillon lives in Dallas with his wife and son.

Dean Fearing Fearing’s Restaurant, The Ritz Carlton

Chef Dean Fearing himself stands tall, confident and charismatic. On his chef jacket is a colorful embroidered image of his much-beloved Lucchese cowboy boots—he has 28 pair and counting. His personal involvement in the restaurant is evident as he glides back and forth from the kitchen to his guests, all with a smile. Long known as the "Father of Southwestern Cuisine," there is no mistake: Chef Fearing has a passion for what he does.

Fearing credits his passion for food to days spent in his grandmother’s kitchen, learning her classic Southern secrets and the most important cooking technique he employs to date: how to use an iron skillet. Fearing has spent his life cooking for people who love good food. A graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, he spent 20-plus years at The Mansion at Turtle Creek. He still treasures and uses Granny Fearing’s recipes today at his namesake restaurant: Fearing’s.

Located in the chic Ritz-Carlton Dallas, Fearing’s boasts seven distinct dining venues, each with an individual ambiance, but all an elegant combination of luxury and classic southern comfort. In the same way the restaurant offers variety to his guests, the menu is continually changing to reflect Fearing’s dining concept: “bold flavors, no borders.” Fearing’s acclaimed farm-to-market seasonal menu offers guests a new generation of highly-flavorful dishes, and an interactive display kitchen offers ringside seating for true foodies.

Esquire named Fearing’s “Restaurant of the Year” and “Table of the Year” in 2007—the same year it opened. Zagat designated it No. 1 in hotel dining in the U.S. for 2009. And the most recent, perhaps most impressive of awards to date, Hotel Magazine ranked Fearing’s as one of the top 10 great restaurants in the world—one of two in North America to be included on this esteemed list for 2009. Fearing’s has also received accolades from The New York Times, Newsweek, Food & Wine, Texas Monthly and Modern Luxury, among others. Fearing was presented with the April 2009 Silver Spoon Award for sterling performance by Food Arts, and he also received a James Beard Foundation nomination for best new restaurant in 2007.

When not in the kitchen, Fearing is often found strumming his vintage Fender Telecaster guitar, one of an impressive collection, playing songs from the “Bliss and Blisters” CD he has released with his all-chef alternative country band, The Barbwires. A self-proclaimed «born-again Texan,» he also enjoys searching the Texas countryside for culinary inspiration. The state’s rich variety of peppers, dried chilies, jicama, cilantro, tomatillos, fruits and vegetables, cheeses, Gulf seafood and Hill Country wild game play a major role in his ever-changing cuisine.

Kevin Garvin Neiman Marcus

Neiman Marcus Vice President and Executive Chef, Kevin Garvin was born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. At the age of 14, his first job in food service was at Piccolo’s Pizza in northeast Philadelphia – a prescient beginning for Garvin’s career as one of America’s most innovative culinary masters.

Garvin graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, N.Y., in 1978 and began his professional culinary career at the Topnotch Inn in Stowe, Vermont, where he learned the fundamentals of European cooking techniques. This was the first of many fantastic opportunities that would one day lead him to Dallas.

In 1987, Garvin was offered and accepted the title of Executive Chef at The Adolphus Hotel in Dallas, Texas, giving him not only a larger audience but also the prestige of overseeing The French Room. Garvin’s proudest day at The Adolphus was when The French Room received the Five Diamond Award for outstanding food, beverage and service.

Yet, after over six years of the everyday pressure of running The Adolphus’ many kitchens, Garvin wanted a job with shorter hours enabling him to spend more time with his wife and to start a new family. After a short move to Vermont, Neiman Marcus called and lured him back to Dallas with an offer of his dream job, Executive Vice President of Food Services. “The opportunity to work for Neiman Marcus with its commitment to luxury and quality was a dream job. I am a chef who always aspired to work in the best kitchens!” Garvin adds, “My chief responsibility is to ensure that every Neiman Marcus dining customer receives the best food and outstanding service.” Or as Garvin so aptly puts it, “I want my five star passions for the restaurant business to be contagious to all who work for me!”

Kevin Garvin still resides in Dallas, with wife, Jody, and son, Patrick. Anita Hirsch Neiman Marcus

Anita Hirsch joined Neiman Marcus in 1999 as executive chef for the flagship store’s Zodiac dining room. She then moved into her current position as corporate executive chef overseeing all Neiman Marcus restaurants.

Hirsch attended the Philadelphia Restaurant School for Chef and Restaurant Management Training. She became Executive Chef for the Mobil Four-Star Four-Diamond dining room of the Cincinnatian Hotel in 1988. Hirsch was selected to represent the ambassador to Singapore for America’s birthday and American cuisine in Singapore. She has been featured in Food & Wine, Bon Appetit, Gourmet, Food Arts and various other Midwest and national publications and cookbooks.

Hirsch has prepared food for such charities as S.O.S., AMFAR, Taste of the NFL for Hunger Relief, American Heart Association, Children’s Hospital, TACA, AIDS and other fundraising associations. She also chaired the opening gala for the IACP. 121 CÔtes du Coeur

Scott Gottlich The Second Floor

Despite Scott’s history of working alongside some of the world’s most renowned chefs and mightiest cuisines, Scott’s true culinary inspirations stem from his beloved memories of childhood dining experiences. With two revered and acclaimed restaurants, Scott is now able to share his passion for cuisine with his guests every day.

Before his foray into food, Scott obtained a B.A. in History from the University of Oklahoma in 1999 and was also a member of the school’s wrestling team. Throughout his studies, Gottlich could not ignore his most inherent desire—to become a chef.

With this, Scott enrolled at Johnson & Wales in Vail, Colorado, where he earned a degree in Culinary Arts. Soon after, Scott moved to Southern California and began working under acclaimed Chef Tim Goodell at the famed restaurant Aubergine, the highest rated restaurant in Southern California at the time with three and-a-half stars by Los Angeles Times.

During his time at Aubergine, Scott developed and honed the skills that would later lead him to his next project in New York, working for Chef Eric Ripert at the three-Michelin starred Le Bernadin. Though this was an exciting time, Scott never could escape the pull towards opening his very own restaurant.

Bijoux opened in September of 2006 and the restaurant was named one of the “Top 10 Hottest New Restaurants in America” by Bon Appétit and has maintained two five-star reviews and one four-star review from The Dallas Morning News.

In 2008, Scott went on to open The Second Floor Bistro By Scott Gottlich at the Westin Galleria Dallas where he continues to earn critical praise.

Scott’s work has earned him many accolades, including being named one of the Dallas Morning News’ The Best in DFW Chefs 2014, a StarChefs.com rising star, a Restaurant and Hospitality rising star and inclusion on the Dallas Morning News’ Best in DFW: Chefs on multiple occasions, and cooking at James Beard.

Aside from running two restaurants, Scott dedicates his time to sons Fox and Ferris, and wife Gina, the incredible sommelier at Bijoux and The Second Floor. Gina’s work has earned both Bijoux and The Second Floor Wine Spectators Awards each year since their inceptions.

Scott also takes time to contribute to the world of culinary education that has given him so much. He now sits on the advisory committee for Le Cordon Bleu in Dallas and is one of the founders of Bonne Sante, which is an annual food and wine showcase that benefits the North Texas Kidney Foundation. He looks forward to further cultivating these initiatives each day.

Carl Murray NOBU

My inspirations of becoming a chef began in early childhood as I would watch cooking shows on KERA and I remember being captivated by the likes of Jaques Pepin, Julia Childs and Charlie Trotter. After graduating from the University of North Texas in 1996 with a bachelor’s degree in political science, I decided to pursue that childhood dream to become a chef. In 1999, I enrolled in the Texas Chef’s Association apprenticeship program at El Centro College. My first exposure to a professional kitchen began with a three year externship at the prestigious Dallas Country Club under the direction of Master Chef, Ernst Grugh. After establishing a solid foundation of cooking principles, I wanted to pass on that knowledge and accepted a position at the Dallas Central Market cooking school in 2002. In 2003, I moved on to work for nationally acclaimed chef, Kent Rathbun at Jaspers in Plano. As chef de partie, it was at this time that I truly began to understand the importance of “mise en place”, everything in its place.

My next major step was switching cuisines completely and began working for Nobu in 2005 as chef de partie. Having the privilege to work under Nobu Matsuhisa was a great honor as everyday became an intense study of Japanese cuisine and culture. However, still feeling an itch to travel and cook, I left Nobu in 2007 to accept a senior chef de partie position at Coco Reef resort on the island of Bermuda. It was at this time that I truly felt an international connection with food. I began to embrace and appreciate the many different influences of food, not only from the local Bermudian fare but also from the international culinary staff that I was honored to work with.

In 2008, I came back to Dallas and reclaimed my position at Nobu to work under the direction of Executive Chef, Matt Raso. It was at this time that I felt the desire to not only improve upon my cooking and knowledge of Japanese cuisine but to also lead a kitchen brigade and accepted the position of sous chef. In December, after five challenging years of managing a kitchen team, and still feeling the desire to lead and excel, I accepted the Executive Chef role at Nobu Dallas.

Kent Rathburn Abacus, Jasper's, KB’S, Rathbun's Kitchen at 6130

After rapidly rising through the ranks of some of the world’s finest kitchens, Chef Kent Rathbun continues to demonstrate his culinary skills not only with the expansion of his restaurant concepts, but also with his full-service catering company and line of at-home products, Kent Rathbun Elements.

Rathbun’s roots are firmly set in food. At the age of nine, he discovered his passion for culinary creativity and began learning the skills and techniques needed to become the renowned chef that he is today. Starting as an apprentice at La Bonne Auberge, a five-star French restaurant located in Kansas City, Missouri, Rathbun gained experience working with high-end ingredients and learned the art of perfect preparation. Preparation was something Rathbun came to value, and that sense of significance remained with him as he moved from kitchen to kitchen, working with some of the best chefs in the country.

Most notably, Rathbun worked at Mr. B’s in New Orleans, American Restaurant and Milano in Kansas City, The Mansion on Turtle Creek in Dallas and the Landmark Restaurant in Dallas’ Warwick Melrose Hotel. While at the Landmark, Rathbun had the opportunity to make annual trips to Bangkok, Thailand, which provided him the resources and research to create his own spectacular style of Contemporary Global cuisine. Drawing on Southwestern, Mediterranean, American, Cajun/Creole and Pacific Rim influences, Rathbun’s signature blend of flavors became the foundation of his first restaurant, Abacus.

In 1997, Rathbun decided to follow his dream. Drawing on his eclectic and distinctive style, he set out to establish his own world- class restaurant. Within months of its opening in the heart of Dallas’ uptown district, Abacus received recognition as a pinnacle of fine dining and received numerous accolades, including Mobil Four- Stars; AAA Four Diamonds and many more.

With several successful concepts under his belt, Chef Rathbun wanted to give home cooks an advantage in their kitchens, so he launched his own exclusive line of products. The Kent Rathbun Elements collection offers an assortment of products, all designed with the home cook in mind.

Rathbun was honored to be one of the featured chefs for the Bush 2001 Inaugural Ball and has participated in the Pre-Super Bowl Event, “Taste of the NFL” for the past 10 years. Passionate about charitable organizations, Rathbun is actively involved in the American Cancer Society, March of Dimes, Zoo to Do, the North Texas Food Bank and the American Heart Association.

TRIBUTE WALL

You are invited to make a lasting and heartfelt impact by giving a gift of $5,000 or more and be recognized on the Dell Tribute Wall. Tonight, in the Chantilly Foyer, you can visit the Dell Tribute Wall.

Special thanks to our Tête du Cuvée honoree, Martinelli Winery, for donating the collectible bottles to be etched with personal and heartfelt messages from each of our donors.

If you choose to Open Your Heart with a gift of $5,000 or more, you can get a bottle, Martinelli Winery’s 2009 Syrah Zio Tony Ranch, engraved with your personal message at tonight’s gala. The wall only holds 48 bottles, please help us fill it up! Visit the Dell Tribute Wall and our bottle calligrapher, Ken Brown, before the Open Your Heart moment to make your pledge, or after you raise your paddle in the room. He will etch your personalized bottle on site.

The Dell Tribute Wall has already been a touching experience this year, thanks to the vision of Eric Hutto-VP/GM Americas of Dell Services, ELT member and generous donor to the research and educational programs of the American Heart Association.

A one hour lecture in an Oklahoma State University architectural design class, and a lettering assignment afterwards, began Ken Brown's path to becoming a name known worldwide for elegant Calligraphy. Ken is totally self-taught and insists, in his case, the word is a proper noun and should be capitalized!

He has authored several instruction books and hosted his own 26 part Calligraphy instructional series on Public Television a few years ago.

For the past 22 years, virtually all Ken's exquisite hand lettering has been with a dental drill. Yes...a dental drill. His pen and ink work morphed into the drill when he began engraving his script in fragrance bottles and traveling all over the U.S. and Canada for ESTÉE LAUDER.

Ken graciously donates his time and energies to the AHA by etching the wine bottles and wine glasses that are so often a part of our fundraising.

Ken and his wife, Gail, have a design studio in a business park in McKinney, Texas. They've made their home in McKinney since 1992. More about their products and designs at kenbrown.com

The American Heart Association shall not, as a condition of sale, assume any obligations or bear any responsibility whatsoever for applying for or obtaining any permits or licenses in the event the quantity purchased exceeds said limitation. 6. Therefore, all bidders are strongly advised to investigate the possibility of such limitations and determine the manner in which alcoholic beverages may legally be brought into a state from Texas so as to comply with all of said state’s requirements. 7. A good faith estimate of “fair market value” for tax deductibility has been made by the American Heart Association as required by recent revisions to the IRS code. For federal income tax purposes, the amount of charitable deduction is limited to the excess of the amount of the successful bid over the estimated “fair market value.” As a convenience to all bidders this value is listed in the catalog as the estimated value and it is written on the bid slip for each silent auction item. The Côtes du Coeur Committee and the American Heart Association, its officers, directors, employees and volunteers undertake or make no guarantee as to the ultimate validity of the estimate published, your realization of such values in the marketplace or their adequacy for taxing or regulatory authorities.
