Pinotfile Vol 9 Issue 39
If you drink no Noir, you Pinot Noir Volume 9, Issue 39 March 31, 2014 Adventures on the Pinot Trail: World of Pinot Noir - The Seminars On February 27, 2014, I hit the Pinot Trail to attend four major events in California. Like the song, “Sugartime,” from the 1950s sung by the McGuire Sisters, it was “Sugar (Pinot) in the morning, Sugar (Pinot) in the evening, Sugar (Pinot) at suppertime. Be my little sugar, And love me (Pinot) all the time.” The trail first led me to Santa Barbara for the 14th Annual World of Pinot Noir, then to San Francisco for three more memorable events: a special retrospective tasting of the wines of Ted Lemon titled “30 Years of Winemaking, 20 years of Littorai,” at Jardiniere restaurant on March 2, Affairs of the Vine Pinot Noir Summit at The Golden Gate Club on March 9, and the In Pursuit of Balance seminars and tasting at Bluxome Street Winery on March 10. I will give a full report on each stop along the Pinot Trail in this issue and those to follow, highlighting some of the special wines I tasted. Some have accused me of being a Pinot pimp and rightfully so. One of my readers told me when I asked him what he had been drinking, “As far as what I am drinking, it’s Pinot you bastard, and it’s your damn fault. Now I empty my bank account at wineries nobody has ever heard of, on wines nobody has ever drank except you, you pr**k. You have ruined me....and I love it.” The World of Pinot Noir successfully relocated this year from its long-standing home in Shell Beach to the Bacara Resort & Spa in Santa Barbara. -

JWE 10 3 Bookreviews 382..384
382 Book and Film Reviews VIVIAN PERRY and JOHN VINCENT: Winemakers of the Willamette Valley: Pioneering Vintners from Oregon’s Wine Country. American Palate, Charleston, South Carolina, 2013, 160 pp., ISBN: 978-1609496760 (paperback), $19.99. CILA WARNCKE: Oregon Wine Pioneers. Vine Lives Publishing, Portland, Oregon, 2015, 234 pp., ISBN: 978-1943090761 (paperback), $19.99. Admittedly, it was hard to write a dispassionate review of books that so lovingly describe the region in which I live and so admiringly profile many of my acquain- tances in the Oregon wine industry. Therefore, I used as measures of merit how well each echoed my impressions of this most beautiful area and its people, and whether each accomplished its objectives. Perry’s and Vincent’s Winemakers of the Willamette Valley (WWV) “is meant to showcase the stories of a handful of Oregon’s many Willamette Valley winemakers” (WWV, p. 11). A foreword by Chehalem founder Harry Peterson-Nedry sets the per- sonal tone that pervades those stories. Next, in a mere eight pages of text, the first chapter, “History of the Willamette Valley Wine Region,” covers the climate, soil, grape selection, craftsmanship, industry structure and early success in sufficient detail to provide valuable context. The authors then share intimate interviews with eighteen vintners and vignerons. Within each chapter named for one or two wine- makers are brief descriptions of the wineries that each is affiliated with. These include year founded, ownership, varietals, tasting room location, hours and con- tacts. Sustainability features, a point of pride in the Oregon wine industry, are also listed. -

Joan R. Davenport, Ph.D., Chair Markus Keller, Ph.D. Richard A. Rupp, Ph.D. Wade H. Wolfe, Ph.D. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my family for their unwavering encouragement. My mother, father, brother and sister have largely made me who I am, regardless of how different we may be. I would like to thank my committee for their expertise and support on this project. First and foremost, my committee chair Dr. Joan Davenport whose faith in my ability and tireless responsiveness carried me much of the way. To Dr. Richard Rupp whose mutual love of learning through teaching absolutely made my working days in Pullman. To Dr. Markus Keller and Dr. Wade Wolfe whose viticultural prowess and accomplishments lend my inaugural foray into the world of grapes much needed credibility. I would like to thank my fellow graduate students in the Crop and Soil Sciences Department and others at Washington State University for the diversity of perspectives the academic environment offers. I would especially like to thank those who regularly nourished me, physically and mentally, with tabbouleh or a receptive ear. -

For example, “Willakenzie” is coined from the general area near the confluence of the Willamette and mcKenzie rivers in Lane county. Willakenzie is a signature soil north of its discovery zone in the yamhill-carlton AVA. © OREGON WINE PRESS | WWW.OREGONWINEPRESS.COM.
