    The Proof of Pinot is in the Drinking PinotFile Volume 6, Issue 37 The First Wine Newsletter Exclusively Devoted to Pinotphiles August 24, 2007 Inside this issue: When I’m Sixty-Four Kalin Cellars 6 Sixty-four is not a major age milestone, but I will take it anyway. Paul McCartney School House Vnyd 7 memorialized aging in his love song, “When I’m Sixty-Four,” written at the tender Tipsy Dog Pinot 8 age of 16. I gathered up a few wine cronies, most of whom are hovering around my Lost Canyon 9 same age, raided my cellar for some good Burgs and sat down on a Sunday after- noon to celebrate another year. The well-cellared wines turned out to be vinous Bien Nacido Redux 10 treasures resulting in a very memorable tasting. Here is the lineup with some Small Sips 12 commentary. All wines had appropriate fills and there were no corkage issues. Central Coast 13 1943 Bouchard Pere & Fils Volnay 11-14% alc.. You never open a bottle like this with high expectations, but it is nevertheless always a thrill when the wine is this old. The black cork came out cleanly. The wine was a surprise to all. The color was medium ruby with only a trace of orange tinge at the rim. There was still notable sweet red fruits on the palate with a little spice and fecundity. The wine was delicate with cashmere tannins. It was a brief, but memorable fling for the wine was spent an hour later. There were great diffi- culties to overcome to make wine in France during the war years.

    PINO: Price is no object PinotFile Volume 6, Issue 54 The First Wine Newsletter Exclusively Devoted to Pinotphiles March 3, 2008 Inside this issue: Santa Maria Valley In a quest to try to satisfy my pinotlust, I traveled recently to the Santa Maria Valley Ambullneo 7 and discovered a region that is quietly, but quickly, becoming a major destination Cottonwood Canyon 10 for wine enthusiasts. Located in the northernmost reaches of Santa Barbara Bianchi Winery 14 County, it is an appellation that has been overshadowed by its neighbors to the Kenneth Volk Vnyds 15 south, the Santa Ynez Valley and Santa Rita Hills, whose popularity has been fueled by the post-Sideways Pinot craze. Part of Sideways was actually filmed on the Small Sips of Santa 16 Foxen Canyon Wine Trail in Santa Maria Valley but this has been largely unrecog- Maria Valley nized. To the north, the nearby Arroyo Grande Valley and Edna Valley in San Luis Obispo County have assumed more notoriety for cool-climate wine enthusiasts, in Pinot Briefs 18 part because of a more publicized and established wine growing history, and in Long & Winding 20 part due to the close proximity to the town of San Luis Obispo. Pinot Road, Part VI The Santa Maria Valley encompasses the cities of Santa Maria and Guadalupe and includes the unincorporated communities of Orcutt, Sisquoc and Tepusquet. The Valley is tucked between the Sierra Madre Mountains to the east and the Pacific Ocean coastline to the west. 25% of Santa Barbara County’s population resides here and Santa Maria recently eclipsed its more famous neighbor to the south, Santa Barbara, in population.

Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the Nation. Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable.

  • 2019 Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir Bien Nacido Vineyards
    2019 SANTA MARIA VALLEY PINOT NOIR BIEN NACIDO VINEYARDS Highlighting lush, layered flavors, bright acidity and impeccably balanced French oak, Migration is dedicated to crafting wines from the finest cool-climate winegrowing regions. Established in 1973, Bien Nacido has earned a reputation as one of California’s premier vineyards. Our prized blocks include original 1973 plantings, as well as vines planted in 1991. Grown in soils with abundant limestone, these older vines produce a gorgeous Chardonnay with complex minerality, a lovely texture and multilayered citrus and orange blossom flavors. VINTAGE NOTES On the Central Coast, cooler summer temperatures with no major heat events ensured a long growing season and abundant hangtime, leading to perfect ripeness and flavor development in the grapes. Lower-than-average yields and smaller berries resulted in incredibly rich and concentrated wines, with our Central Coast reds possessing amazing color, bright acids and deep, lush flavors, and our whites displaying beautiful brightness and sophisticated citrus and stone fruit layers. WINEMAKING NOTES One of California’s Grand Cru-caliber vineyards, Bien Nacido yielded a lush and luxurious Pinot Noir with layers of blackberry, black raspberry, sweet baking spices and hints of rustic underlying earthiness. On the palate, soft, silky tannins accentuate the generous dark berry flavors while carrying the wine to a long, rich finish.

  • Drinking California Pinot Noir History from “Old Vine” Vineyards: a Bucket List
    If you drink no Noir, you Pinot Noir Volume 12, Issue 8 August 19, 2020 Drinking California Pinot Noir History from “Old Vine” Vineyards: A Bucket List “Vine age is the key to balance. There’s no substitute for vine age.” Ted Lemon, Littorai There is no consensus or legal definition of “old vine” Pinot Noir. Wikipedia states, “In a place where wine production is longstanding, it often means a wine whose vines are thirty to forty years old.” I have used forty years (1980) as the cut-off for my California old vine Pinot Noir bucket list. Some would consider these “mature” vines only, insisting that the term “old” be reserved for vines older than this such as 125-year-old Zinfandel vines in California that are still bearing small amounts of fruit. Hanzell 1953 Ambassador’s Vineyard Pinot Noir Vine The term “old-vine” has created debate for years in the wine industry. Most winemakers believe the terminology should be defined and regulated. Some choose to define “old-vine” as a minimum of 20 years and others prefer 50 years as a minimum. There are also disagreements about the percentage of grapes that should be required in a wine labeled “old-vine.” Some winemakers would agree that “old-vine” grapes should make up at least 85% of the grapes contained in a wine sold as “old-vine,” and others demand that 95% of the grapes be from “old-vine” sources. There are variances to consider among different varietals as well. For example, Pinot Noir vineyards over 20 years are considered old, yet Zinfandel from a 20 year-old vineyard would not be labeled “old-vine.” The issue of “old-vines” results from the perception by many consumers who consider “old-vine” wines better.

  • Bien Nacido.Pub
    BIEN NACIDO VINEYARDS SANTA MARIA VALLEY, CALIFORNIA Bien Nacido Vineyards has become an iconic American vineyard. Located in the Santa Maria Valley, this historic vineyard has a colorful and storied past. In 1837 a Spanish land grant of some two square leagues was made to Tomas Olivera. This grant covered nearly 9,000 acres ranging upward to the San Rafael Mountains from the Santa Maria Mesa, which bordered the Sisquoc and Cuyama Rivers. Thomas Olivera sold Rancho Tepusquet in 1855 to his son-in-law and daughter, who started construction on an adobe in 1856 and moved to the ranch the following year. In 1969, the Millers, a fifth generation California farming family, purchased part of this property. They also purchased an adjacent parcel which had been part of the original land grant, and reunited the two as Rancho Tepusquet, now comprising over two thousand acres. The original adobe remains as one of the few privately maintained adobes in California. In the early 1970's, it became clear to the Millers that the soils and climate were ideal for growing grapes. Bien Nacido Vineyards is planted primarily to Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc, and Syrah. The original plantings came from stock grown by the University of California at Davis and grown on their own rootstock. Bien Nacido also has the distinction of being the first vineyard in California to grow cool climate Syrah. Santa Maria Valley is an American Viticultural Area located in Northern Santa Barbara County and San Luis Obispo County, California. This appellation is the oldest in this portion of California.

    World of Pinot Noir Issue PinotFile Volume 5, Issue 27 The First Wine Newsletter Devoted to Pinotaficionados March 13, 2006 World of Pinot Noir: The Proper Care & Feeding of Pinot Geeks I’m gonna rock I’m gonna roll I’m gonna party to five To save my soul Gonna move Got to groove Gonna shake this body like you don’t know Gonna make this night go fine Drinkin’ wine Drinkin’ Wine, Vernon Green & Medallions Every March, 800 Pinot geeks descend on the sleepy town of Shell Beach and get ziggy over Pinot Noir. There are instructive seminars given by the winegrower icons of Pinot Noir from all over the world. No continuing education credit is offered, but attendees take these sessions very seriously. Of course the tasting of Pinot Noir is de rigueur at these symposia. Scoring and judging of Pinot Noir is strictly forbidden. This is, after all, a celebration of the endless variations and all that is magical about Pinot Noir. The event is essentially a triathlon and attendees need to be in their best spitting mode to survive the three day bacchanal. Many devotees gather on Thursday night (see report on the Chapel of Bourgogne to follow) to warm-up their palates. Friday is devoted to seminars, lunch with more Pinot, afternoon walk-around tastings with 129 Pinot Noir producers (pouring their current offerings and often many special library wines) and an evening Gala Dinner & Celebration at which Pinot flows like water. The next day, Saturday, offers a similar menu including a special tasting with a featured Domaine from Burgundy.
