7 Agricultural Practices Some of the wineries represented by Monterey Bay Wine Company have chosen to grow their grapes natu- rally, without the aid of synthetic chemicals or genetically modified organisms. “Sustainable farming” refers to the ability of a farm to produce food indefinitely, without causing damage to ecosystem health. Biody- namic agriculture perceives the farm as an organism, a self-contained entity with its own individuality, and eschews the use of artificial chemicals on soil and plants. Organic farmers rely on crop rotation, integrated pest management, crop residues, animal manures and mechanical cultivation to maintain soil productivity. In addition, several wines are Certified Organic by CCOF, Organic Certifiers or Demeter Certified Biodynamic.

16 Limited production single vineyard Malbec handcrafted by renown wine- maker, Jesse Katz. Devil Proof has been named “cult wine of the year” and is the highest rated 100% Malbec from California from Robert Parker, Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast and rated in the top 100 wines by Virginie Boone of Wine Enthusiast. Jesse’s photographer father, Andy Katz, captured the black and white photograph, which graces the label, of a Cuban woman smoking a cigar. The name Devil Proof comes from the Cuban theory that if you live well and drink well, then the devil can’t get you.

18 In 1998, inspired by the majesty of the wild Sonoma Coast, Linda and Lester Schwartz began planting the Fort Ross Vineyard, which clings to the steep rugged coastal ridges. The cool maritime climate of the Fort Ross-Seaview AVA allows the grapes to ripen slowly and evenly to create wines with vibrant fruit, structure, balance and finesse. Annual production is limited to approximately 5000 cases as they use only estate grown grapes from the single 55-acre vineyard. Since 2009 they have worked close- ly with their esteemed winemaker, Jeff Pisoni, to masterfully craft profound wines that express the unique terroir of this exceptional vineyard that lies high above the coastal fog.

24 LIOCO was conceived in the alley behind Spago Beverly HIlls in 2005 by wine director Kevin O’Connor and wine salesman Matt Licklider. Their interest was in making some local wines that fa- vored nuance over power - an approach that placed them at the vanguard of the New California Wine movement. Today the win- ery is owned by Matt & Sara Licklider, who along with their small team produce the wines in a warehouse in Santa Rosa. All of the fruit is contracted from premier vineyards in Santa Cruz, Sonoma, and Mendocino with a focus on sites with older vines, interesting soil, and heritage clones.

34 Our wine making philosophy is "Less is More." We prefer minimal handling in the cellar using gravity whenever possible.

The Basque Blend was conceived after winemaker, Deborah Elissaga- ray, travelled with her family back to the French Pyrenees to the vil- lage where her father was born. Made in collaboration with husband and master blender Greg Stokes of Ursa Vineyards; D’Elissagaray is a unique approach to the time honored style of Basque wine. Though there are vintage variations, the Basque Blend is always made with vari- etals native to the South of France, created in California and reflective of the tradition in the Pyrenees.
