    WINE NO. 1 Margins Counoise 96% Counoise + 4% Mourvèdre Sattler’s Vineyard, Santa Clara Valley, California 2020 RE-ORDER: $27 GRAPE: COUNOISE [ku-nwaz ] Counoise is a unique menu item from the Southern Rhône, not typically served à la carte but as a spicy ingredient added to blends. It is one of the 13 grapes allowed in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, but it makes up barely a fraction of its vines. There are only a handful of plantings in California, but as it is vigorous and loves the warm and semi-arid Rhône valley, it may be catching on. It is sort of a goldilocks grape, not too dark in color, not too high in acid, tannin or alcohol, and that hint of cracked pepper is juuuust right. WINEMAKER: Margins’ name reflects the idea that vineyards, grapes, and regions can be outcasts just like underrepresented folks in society. Margins is the work of Megan Bell, seeking to give much deserved attention to the “other” vineyards and varietals throughout northern California. Her small project is based in the Santa Cruz Mountains but she has experience all over the world: apprenticing in Napa, Livermore Valley, Willamette Valley, New Zealand, and the Loire Valley, and receiving a BS in Vit and Enology from UC Davis. She works with growers to transition to organic farming by providing informed advice, and assurance that their grapes have a home in her cellar. The Counoise comes from Ed Sattler’s 2.7 acre backyard vineyard planted in 2009 - a hot, dry site with an intense diurnal swing (and not quite enough elevation to make it in the SCM AVA.) They’ve been converting to organic and this is one of Megan’s proudest accomplishments.

Period. J. Wilkes 2017 “Kent’s Red” Blend Paso Robles Highlands District, California 1,000 Cases Produced The J. Wilkes 2017 “Kent’s Red” is a blend of 90% Barbera and 10% Lagrein from the renowned Paso Robles Highlands District on California’s Central Coast. This District, which is the most southeast sub appellation within the Paso Robles AVA, is an absolutely fantastic place to grow wine grapes, partly due to its average 55 degree temperature swing from day to night (the highest diurnal temperature swing in the United States!), and also in part to its combination of sandy and clay soils that promote very vigorous vines. The high temperature swing, by the way, crafting bold, complex red blends like the J. Wilkes 2017 “Kent’s Red.” This wine opens with incredibly seductive slows the ripening rate of the fruit on the vine and allows flavors to develop, which is especially important when and just the right balance of bright, deep, and elegant nuances.

We have put out this shorter newsletter a bit earlier than usual to allow you to order special packs for Christmas. You will need to get your orders in straight away, however, because delivery firms get very busy around this time and deliveries always take longer. For this month only we have a special Christmas pack of one dozen specially selected wines to get you through the holiday season for which there is a 20% discount. We also have a 6 pack of sparkling wines, something it’s always important to have in the fridge over the holidays.. There is also a pack of what we have called On the Fringe wines. These have all been unfiltered and unfined and with no additions expect for one or two that have had tiny amounts of sulphur added. These are wines that are distinctly different. We are also delighted to offer a pack of wines that all come in under 12% alcohol this month as well as another pack of wines made from obscure grape varieties. We are finding more and more customers are asking for something different. And the final pack has only two bottles in it, but they are the two top cuvées from Loire Valley icon Jean-Pierre Robinot. We haven’t been able to offer these wines to our retail customers before as they are always snapped up by the trade, but we have managed to hold a few back this shipment.
