Winelist 2015 About Our List Winner of the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence What a pleasure it has been to create this wine list! We have hand-picked every entry, and happily guarantee that you will be pleased with your choice. In many cases, we know the winemakers or owners personally. Their integrity and craftsmanship are evident in each bottle. What are phenols ? According to Ron Herbst and Sharon Tyler Herbst in "Wine Lover's Companion" phenolic compounds are "naturally occurring compounds present in grape skins and seeds and extracted from oak barrels." They include "tannins and pigments and are responsible for astringency, bitterness, color, some flavors and odors (like vanillin), and antioxidant activity (which helps wine age)." Our list, taking a phenolic "ladder" as our guide, places white wines before red wines. Wines which are lighter in style are at the top of their categories, and those which are progressively bigger in style follow. So, even if you do not recognize a particular wine on our list, you should feel confident in predicting the kind of expression of its varietal that it is delivering, just by where it is located in its category. In other words, "bigger" wines will be farther down on the list in each category. Wines that are sustainable are noted with an S Wines that are organic are noted with an O Wines that are biodynamic are noted with a B Wines that are vegan are noted with a V WCYC WINES BY THE GLASS Beer on Tap 6.00 Drake’s IPA (pint glass) Sparkling 6.00 9.00 Scrimshaw Pilsner (pint glass) Avinyò Brut Cava Reserva, Penedès, Spain NV Oaktown Brown Ale(pint glass) 6.00 Nico Wheat Beer (pint glass) 6.00 Graham Beck Brut, South Africa NV 9.00 Anchor Steam Ale (pint glass) 6.00 6.00 Pranqster Belgian Style Golden Ale Sauvignon Blanc (14oz belgian ale glass) Coral Sauvignon Blanc, Feliz Vineyard 8.00 Beer in Bottles Mendocino 2014 Imported Lake Chalice Sauvignon Blanc 9.00 Sol (Mexico) 5.00 Marlborough, New Zealand 2014 Heineken (Holland) 5.00 Amstel Light (Holland) 5.00 Guinness (Ireland - in can) 6.00 Chardonnay Xingu Black Beer (Brazil) 6.00 Coral Chardonnay, Bliss Vineyard, Mendocino 2012 8.00 5.00 Kaliber Non Alcoholic (Ireland) Domaine Bader-Mimeur Chardonnay 10.00 Schönramer Saphir Bock (Germany, 330ml) 8.00 Hacker-Pschorr Munich Gold Lager (Germany, 330ml) 6.00 Chassagne-Montrachet, France 2011 Domestic La Follette Chardonnay, North Coast 2012 10.00 Lagunitas Czech Style Pilsner (Petaluma, CA) 5.00 Voodoo Blackened Lager (New Orleans, LA) 5.00 Pride Mountain Vineyards Chardonnay, Napa 2012 15.00 Abita Mardi Gras Bock (New Orleans, LA) 5.00 Organic Amber Ale Eel River Brewing (Fortuna, CA) 5.00 21st Amendment Brew Free or Die IPA (SF, CA - in can ) 5.00 Drink Me Whites Pabst Blue Ribbon (Milwaukee, Wisconsin) 4.00 Kuentz Bas Riesling, Alsace, France 2012 9.00 Coor's Light (Colorado) 4.00 5.00 Gobelsburg Gruner Veltliner, Austria 2013 9.00 Crispin Hard Pear Cider (Colfax, CA) Large Format Beer Lechthaler Pinot Grigio, Trentino, Italy 2013 9.00 Paulaner Munchen Hefe-Weizen (Germany, 500ml) 9.00 Steinlager (New Zealand, 24 oz) 9.00 Vasco Urbano D.

  • SOLAR 6 GRENACHE ROSÉ IGP Cévennes
    SOLAR 6 GRENACHE ROSÉ IGP Cévennes Act for planet Winemaker’s note Solar 6 is a wine from organic farming certified "AB" and "Bee Friendly", a label that aims to protect bees and pollinators. In an alarming context of the increasing disappearance of pollinators, beekeepers have initiated the creation of the European "Bee Friendly" label in order to identify agricultural practices that respect the preservation of bees. The name of this range of round and fruity wines, Solar 6, pays homage to the solar terroirs of the South of France where these wines are made. It also evokes the first flight of recognition of bees, the "fireworks sun", and the symbolic number of these pollinators, 6. Winegrower’s note The plots of Solar 6 benefit from a beautiful sunshine and a terroir made of rolled pebbles which gives the grapes a wide aromatic palette. After sorting the harvest and pressing under gas, the grapes are lightly macerated during the pre-fermentation phase before being placed on fine lees in the post-fermentation phase and put into thermo-regulated vats. Tasting notes Grape varieties Endowed with a clear robe with garnet reflections, Grenache this grenache rosé has a charming nose with aromas of red fruits, blackcurrant, strawberry, basket of fruit, with a beautiful freshness. This is followed by a Cévennes supple attack on the palate, with an ample, round and suave mouth. Fresh and fruity, this cuvée of Grenache rosé offers intense floral notes and mouth- watering aromas of red fruits. Narbonne Solar 6 Grenache is a rosé characteristic of the hillsides on stony and warm terroirs.

  • And Cabernet Franc Is the Star
    CAN WE BE FRANC? THE HUDSON VALLEY PREPARES FOR ITS CLOSE-UP —AND CABERNET FRANC IS THE STAR. Amy Zavatto he verdant, hilly climes of the Hudson Valley are known and praised for many things. The beauty of its rolling, roiling namesake river; its famed mid-nineteenth century naturalist art movement; its acres of multi-generational fruit orchards and dairy farms; T and, lately, as the celebrated place of culinary inspiration for chefs like Dan Barber and Zak Palaccio. But while these lands, just ninety minutes shy of New York City’s northern border, can claim the country’s oldest, continually operating vineyards and oldest declared winery, the cult of wine has yet to become the calling card of the region’s lore and allure. That might be about to change. 4 HUDSON VALLEY WINE • Summer 2016 Cabernet Franc, that beautiful, black French grape variety well known for its role in both legendary Right Bank Bordeaux and Loire Valley wines, is proving to be oh-so much more than a liquidy lark here. Not only does the grape seem well at home in the Hudson Valley’s cool-climate terroir, but collective work done between the area’s grape growers, winemakers, and Cornell University have tamed many of the conundrums that once plagued producers who yearned for success with vinifera. Now, with a force borne of a few decades of trial, error, and recent promising success, Hudson Valley vintners are ready (and more than able) to stick a flag in the ground for Franc. DIGGING DOWN “I’m of Dutch-German descent; I’m not big on failure,” laughs a region express itself with the kind of purity that wins critical Doug Glorie, who with his wife and partner, MaryEllen, opened acknowledgment.

  • Review of Smoke Taint in Wine: Smokederived Volatile Phenols And
    Krstic et al. Review of smoke taint in wine 537 Review of smoke taint in wine: smoke-derived volatile phenols and their glycosidic metabolites in grapes and vines as biomarkers for smoke exposure and their role in the sensory perception of smoke taint M.P. KRSTIC1, D.L. JOHNSON2 and M.J. HERDERICH2 1 The Australian Wine Research Institute,Victorian Node, Mooroolbark, Vic. 3138, Australia; 2 The Australian Wine Research Institute, Urrbrae, SA 5064, Australia Corresponding author: Dr Mark Krstic, email [email protected] Abstract In recent years, the exposure of vineyards and grapes to smoke from bushfires and controlled burn events has in some instances resulted in wines described as smoke tainted. Such wines are characterised by undesirable sensory characters described as smoky, burnt, ash, smoky bacon, medicinal and ashtray. This review summarises the knowledge about the composition of smoke from forest and grass fires, describes relationships between smoke exposure of vineyards and smoke taint in wine, and outlines strategies for managing and reducing the risk to producing smoke-affected wines. The sensitivity of grapes and vines at different phenological stages to the uptake of contaminants from smoke, especially smoke-derived volatile phenols, is outlined, and the pathways for entry and metabolic transformation of volatile phenols are discussed. The potential for translocation of phenolic contaminants within the grapevine and the differences in uptake of smoke contaminants of different grape cultivars are also discussed, along with preliminary work on dose/response relationships regarding concentration and duration of exposure and subsequent expression of smoke taint in wine. The chemical basis of smoke taint in wine is described, and the relationship between volatile phenols from combustion of wood/lignin and their glycosides, and sensory panel ratings of smoke attributes in affected wines is discussed.

  • Loire Valley
    PREVIEWCOPY Introduction Previewing this guidebook? If you are previewing this guidebook in advance of purchase, please check out our enhanced preview, which will give you a deeper look at this guidebook. Wine guides for the ultra curious, Approach Guides take an in-depth look at a wine region’s grapes, appellations and vintages to help you discover wines that meet your preferences. The Loire Valley — featuring a compelling line-up of distinctive grape varieties, high quality winemaking and large production volumes — is home to some of France’s most impressive wines. Nevertheless, it remains largely overlooked by the international wine drinking public. This makes the region a treasure trove of exceptional values, just waiting to be discovered. What’s in this guidebook • Grape varieties. We describe the Loire’s primary red and white grape varieties and where they reach their highest expressions. • Vintage ratings. We offer a straightforward vintage ratings table, which affords high-level insight into the best and most challenging years for wine production. • A Loire Valley wine label. We explain what to look for on a Loire Valley wine label and what it tells you about what’s in the bottle. • Map and appellation profiles. Leveraging our map of the region, we provide detailed pro- files of appellations from all five of the Loire’s sub-regions (running from west to east): Pays Nantais, Anjou, Saumur, Touraine and Central Vineyards. For each appellation, we describe the prevailing terroir, the types of wine produced and what makes them distinctive. • A distinctive approach. This guidebook’s approach is unique: rather than tell you what specific bottle of wine to order by providing individual bottle reviews, it gives the information you need to make informed wine choices on any list.

  • How California's Central Coast Winemakers Are Making Grenache Their
    How California’s Central Coast Winemakers are Making Grenache Their Own California didn't always produce top-quality Grenache, but these Central Coast growers are changing that by focusing on varietal bottlings to produce terroir-driven wines on par with top-shelf Pinot Noirs—but often at half the price. BY MATT KETTMANN Photo by Meg Baggott Grenache is one of the hardiest and most vigorous wine grapes on the planet. It’s a reliable backbone for traditional blends across the Old World, from France’s Châteauneuf-du-Pape to Spain’s Priorat, where it’s called Garnacha. It’s also long served a similar, if less regal, purpose in California. For decades, Central Valley growers pushed Grenache vines to their limits to produce red and pink jug wines of questionable quality. Today, however, vintners on the state’s Central Coast are shedding that baggage. They’ve optimized viticulture and dialed back the tonnage to produce varietal Grenache as nuanced and delicious as top-shelf Pinot Noir—often at half the price. Winemakers explore both the rich, ripe side of the grape, which retains acidity deep into the harvest season, as well as lighter, fresher expressions that play up oral aromatics and taut textures. But no matter where or how Grenache is grown, it retains the variety’s hallmark traits of red fruit, rose petal and cola-like spice. It offers a consistent lens to analyze the region’s varied terroirs and winemaking styles. “I rmly believe that Grenache should be the staple red of the Central Coast,” says Ian Brand, a Salinas-based winemaker who sources the grape from eight vineyards for his brands, La Marea and Le P’tit Paysan.
