Current 2020 Sylvaner in General
100% Sylvaner VINTAGE Since 1971; current 2020 BACKGROUND INFORMATION Sylvaner in general: Originally from Germany (where it is known as Silvaner), it became famous in early 20th century when it was Germany’s most planted varietal, before the discovery of the early ripening and higher production attributes of Műller Thurgau. Wine from this grape has a naturally high acid level, but no real longevity. It’s still popular in Nahe, Franken and Rheinpfalz where Riesling struggles to ripen - Sylvaner ripens 2 weeks earlier than Riesling. Excellent late harvest style wines are made in these regions. Sylvaner is also grown in other European countries such as France (Alsace), Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Russia. Sylvaner at Overgaauw: David Snr planted the first Sylvaner at Overgaauw in the 1960s (currently 1 ha). It was bottled in 1971 when most of the local producers were bottling Steen (Chenin Blanc) and Riesling (Cruchen Blanc). The Overgaauw Sylvaner is the only Sylvaner produced in SA. It’s made in small quantities and has a loyal following due to its flavour spectrum and uniqueness. German tourists enjoy tasting ‘their’ varietal in SA and comment that you can “taste the sunshine in the wine”. Restaurants often list it as a unique varietal on their wine lists and are pleasantly surprised at its versatility as a food wine. VITICULTURE Vineyard location: Stellenbosch Kloof, 200m above sea level, south facing, 15km from False Bay Moderate climate: Winter ave temp: 13ºC (min 7ºC, max 17ºC) Summer ave temp: 21.5ºC (min 20.5ºC, max 30.5ºC) Soil: Deep Hutton and Clovelly (decomposed granite) Age of vines: 27 years Trellising: 4-wire hedge system with moveable wires Pruning: Cordon system with 2 bud spurs, ensuring low yield Harvest date: February 2020 Yield per hectare: 8 tons Sugar at harvesting: 23ºB VINICULTURE Length of fermentation: 21 days in stainless steel at average 14ºC Alcohol: 12.5% vol Total acid: 5.1 g/l pH: 3.56 RS: 2.3 g/l OUR WINEMAKER DAVID VAN VELDEN’S COMMENTS First produced in 1971, our Sylvaner is still unique in South Africa. -

Alberto Orte Is a Winemaker and History Lover Who Finds Inspiration in Expressions of Time and Place
Calma Alberto Orte is a winemaker and history lover who finds inspiration in expressions of time and place. When he makes a wine, very often it is rooted in a time gone by or lost technique. The other main sources of inspiration for Alberto are specific places that are compelling by virtue of the qualities they intrinsically lend to wines that are grown there. In the case of Calma, he examines the latter – a special site in Rioja Alta called Viña Badrinal, in the village of Hormilla near the Sierra de la Demanda mountain chain. Planted to sandy limestone and clay soils at almost 2000 ft elevation, the bright acidity and depth of the fruit from this parcel provide Alberto with beautiful, site-specific raw material to make an age-worthy wine of remarkable depth and elegance. 100% Tempranillo, organically farmed and hand-harvested, Calma is a close examination of this special place and is unmistakably Riojana. WHAT MAKES THIS WINE UNIQUE?: Calma is a single vineyard, small production Rioja from a high-altitude, limestone parcel planted to 100% Tempranillo. The wine shows extraordinary depth, beautiful integration of tannins and balancing acidity in the raw materials give this wine excellent potential for aging. RATING HISTORY: 2014 91VM; 2013 91VM; 2012 90VM; 2010 91IWR GRAPE: 100% Tempranillo. Vines planted from 1984-2002. Tended in red thin clay and sandy limestone soil at 568 m (1,865 ft) elevation PAIRING SUGGESTIONS: With its spicy, peppery red fruit, Calma is a wine that begs for robust flavors like olives and charcuterie (particularly jamon iberico). -

Wine from Women Winemakers
Wine from Women Winemakers • Historically, winemaking was a man’s job, often tied to religious bodies/orders • Is there any fundamental “signature” difference in female-made wine? • What unique challenges or opportunities do women winemakers face? 1) Marie Courtin Résonance Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut NV – Aube, France • The Aube is closer to Chablis than to the heart of Champagne in Reims; it has the same Kimmeridgian limestone as Chablis • Dominique Moreau took over a little plot of mostly Pinot Noir vines in the Aube district in 2001; started her Marie Courtin label (named for her grandmother) in 2005 • Dominique’s winemaking is a little different than what’s traditionally been “typical” in Champagne: she makes single vineyard, single varietal, single vintage wine from biodynamically farmed vineyards; uses no commercial yeasts and no dosage • Résonance is from all hand-harvested Pinot Noir fermented in stainless steel; it’s named for the balancing effects of earth and sky that affect wine’s terroir 1) Pewsey Vale Dry Riesling ’12 – Eden Valley, Australia • Eden Valley is a region in South Australia, famous for its Riesling, which is dry and generally very minerally • Pewsey Vale vineyards were first planted in 1847 by an Englishman; 115 years later this area became the center of Australia’s Riesling renaissance • Winemaker is Louisa Rose, who also works for Aussie wineries Yalumba and Hill- Smith; she grew up working on her family’s vineyard in the Yarra Valley and studied theoretical physics before taking on winemaking • Her winemaking -

About the Winemaker: Tanner Scheer
west sonoma coast about the winemaker: tanner scheer Winemaking was an unexpected career choice for Tanner Scheer, but turned out to be a surprising fit. In 2008, Tanner was looking for a means of getting to California to be closer to his brother and sister-in- law, who happened to be longtime friends of Ampelos Cellars owners Peter and Rebecca Work. After a quick telephone interview, Tanner had a job lined up as a cellar rat and a place to stay: an RV parked on the Ampelos property. Quitting his job in Colorado, Tanner hit the road, arriving in Lompoc, CA at 18 years of age with all he had—two bags and a backpack—to work his first harvest. Tanner had never tasted a single wine at that point. “The first wine I had was 2001 Melville Pinot,” he says. “I remember thinking that this is the craziest thing ever, that all this action can be packed in one glass.” He fell in love with the work, too, having grown up in southwest Colorado on large horse and cattle ranches alongside his father, a hardworking career cowboy. “It fit my work ethic and the way I was raised. I felt like I was willing to work harder than anybody. I’d start an hour earlier and stay hours later than anybody else.” The hard work and extra hours paid off. Tanner spent six years at Ampelos Cellars, learning on the job and eventually working his way up to Assistant Winemaker in 2011. Leaving in 2013, he joined mutual friends for harvest at Dragonette Winery in Buellton, CA before accepting a position at Liquid Farm. -
Great Wines of Alsace
Great Wines of Alsace A STORY he Rieflé family is deeply rooted in the history andculture of the Rhine. The domaine’s identity is inspired by the spirit of its beautiful winemaker’s house T which was built in PFAFFENHEIM in 1609. It sits next to a magnificent church with a 13th century choir. More recently, the take-over of Seppi Landmann’s vineyard, a truculent winemaker established in Soultzmatt, enhanced our variety of terroirs with the addition of several appellations such as Alsace Grand Cru Zinnkoepflé, Alsace Vallée Noble. AN IDEA e strive to satisfy our customers throughout the world by producing Alsace wines that reflect the originality of their terroirs. This philosophy W allows us to respect the identity of each of our two signatures. One of the ways to fulfill this promise isdriving the entire vineyard in organic farming since 10 years. TERROIRS ur vineyard, with a total area of 23 ha (57 acres), covers more than 80 plots spread over Pfaffenheim Rouffach, Soultzmatt and Westhalten in the AOP OAlsace, Alsace Côte de Rouffach, Alsace Vallée Noble, several single — 1er Crus Vineyards and in two Grands Crus: Zinnkoepflé and Steinert. We take car of the plots of vines individually according to their unique characteristics in order to strengthen the connection between the terroir and the wine it produces. This connection, signature of a great wine, is favoured by the adoption of so- called soil conservation techniques. Instead plowing, maintaining permanent cover composed of specific plants (rye, pea, vetch, radish...), allows the soil to become autonomous in term of amendments (neither chemical nor organic fertilizers are used). -

The George of Stamford Wine List The aim of this wine list is to offer the most interesting wines we can find. ‘Interesting’ means characterful, individual, intriguing - not simply classic.
