  • Kept Secret Never Had a Wine from the Santa Cruz Mountains?
    BOTTLE SERVICE e Future Looks Even Brighter New-gen producers are living out their start-up fantasies—and changing California wine for the better. By Betsy Andrews WHEN RYAN STIRM STARTED HIS EPONYMOUS LABEL, he says, “I didn’t realize how unpopular Riesling would be.” But he was persistent. A cellar rat in Santa Barbara, Stirm flipped a fixer- upper there and, with the profits, was able to move to Santa Cruz and grow his coworking winery, Stirm Wine (stirmwine .com). Six years later, he’s fêted for his Riesling. Naturally fer- mented, unfiltered, and unfined, his old-vine wine from Cienega Valley has a heady guava nose, lush texture, and sly acidity. “I love that Riesling turns people off at first,” he says. “I find it so easy to change minds.” Stirm, 32, embraces challenges. For Pinot Noir and Cabernet California’s Best- PINOT NOIR Sauvignon, he’s practicing no-till dry farming, a rarity in plowed and irrigated California. “It’s jungly because I let weeds grow,” Kept Secret 2016 THOMAS FOGARTY 2018 SANTE ARCANGELI 2017 BIG BASIN ALFARO says Stirm. “But the results tell a different story.” (Acid, concen- Cellars (lepecellars.com) in 2015 after working in wineries all Never had a wine SANTA CRUZ MOUNTAINS SPLIT RAIL VINEYARD FAMILY VINEYARD PINOT tration, flavor.) “I’m trying to be a true minimalist, starting with over the state and in Chile. “From what I’ve seen, it all starts in PINOT NOIR ($38) PINOT NOIR ($49) NOIR ($60) less and making it better.” the vineyard,” he says. “My parents worked in the fields.

  • April 2018 Hello K&L Wine Club Members, Over the Next Few Months
    3005 El Camino, Redwood City, CA 94061 Phone, to place orders: (800) 247-5987 Wine Club extension: 2766 Fax (650) 364-4687 [email protected] April 2018 Hello K&L Wine Club Members, Over the next few months I’ll be weaving a theme through the three core clubs: the sourcing of grapes as it pertains to California vineyards. In the last three years, I’ve steadily steered customers in search of a bargain away from the wines of my home state and more towards inexpensive options from France, Spain, and the Southern Hemisphere because of the value proposition. Grapes from California are expensive and the prices for top parcels of Chardonnay, Cabernet, and Pinot Noir have risen right alongside Bay Area real estate values and local rents. It seems crazy, but in many cases it’s become less expensive to buy a wine of a similar quality from halfway around the world, put it on a boat and ship it to our stores in California, than to buy the product locally. After years of simply circumventing California price increases by sourcing from other markets, I decided to do some extra digging and see if we could find under-the-radar alternatives that still provided serious bang for your buck. I’m from California, after all, and I’ve lived here my entire life. If I can seek out values from thousands of miles away, I should be able to do the same in my own backyard, right? Sourcing affordable, high-quality fruit in California today is no easy task, especially with the single vineyard craze at an all-time high.

  • Trailblazers of the Santa Cruz Mountains
    Trailblazers of the Santa Cruz Mountains Vintners just over the hill from Silicon Valley go their own way, but strive for recognition Tim Fish Issue: October 31, 2007 If there's one thing the vintners in the Santa Cruz Mountains like, it's their elbowroom. In the rugged heights southwest of San Francisco Bay, the nearest neighbor may be a mile away as the crow flies, but it takes a tedious drive on twisting roads to get there. "We're kind of like little islands spread out over the mountain," says Mount Eden winemaker Jeffrey Patterson. Yet to those who reside here, this isolation is among the region's most important features. With the crowded sprawl of the Bay area just to the east, the remote geography gives the denizens of this lush, forested range a streak of stubborn independence that is common to moun- tain dwellers everywhere. The challenges are many, but the distinctive group of individuals drawn to this distinctive landscape know that the Santa Cruz Mountains appellation is capable of producing world-class wines. The mountains were born from the collision of two tectonic plates whose boundary is California's most famous fault, the San Andreas (named for a lake in the northern reaches of the range). Despite ridgelines that climb above 3,000 feet, snow is a rarity in winter. Instead, rain can come down in torrents, flowing into dark canyons filled with towering redwoods. Summer sees almost no rain and is defined by cool fogs blowing in from the Pacific Ocean, which dissipate long before reaching the scorching valleys of California's interior.
