SCARECROW 2017 3X750 $829.95 $1069.99 ALLOC. M. ÉTAIN 2018 2X750 $265.95 $342.99 The Scarecrow story begins in a patch of earth with a fabled past. The J.J. Cohn Estate, where Scarecrow grapes are born, borders what was once the legendary vineyard of Inglenook winemaker Gustave Niebaum, whose plantings blanketed more than 1,000 acres of Napa Valley at the close of the 19th century. John Daniel Jr. took the helm at Inglenook in 1939, determined to restore the label to pre-Prohibition standing and produce world-class Bordeaux-style wines. In 1945, Daniel convinced his neighbor, J.J. Cohn to plant eighty acres of Cabernet Vines on the 180-acre parcel Cohn had purchased a few years prior. Daniel promised to buy his grapes, so Cohn planted vines. The rest, as they say, is history. J.J. Cohn grapes are highly sought-after in part because Cohn bucked the trend, begun in the mid-1960s, of replacing vines planted on St. George rootstock with the supposedly superior AxR#I hybrid. Over time, vines grafted onto this new stock proved highly vulnerable to phylloxera. But by then virtually all of the old St. George vines in Napa had been destroyed. Only the original 1945 J.J. Cohn vines survived. These highly prized “Old Men” continue to produce uncommonly rich fruit – the hallmark of Scarecrow wine. “Hedonistically, undeniably and deliciously perfect.” 2016 Scarecrow, 100 Points, Wine Advocate ALLOC. CORRA CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2017 6X750 $184.96 $237.99 Celia Welch, consulting winemaker to some of Napa Valley’s finest Cabernet Sauvignon estates, is proud to welcome you to her own endeavor, CORRA. Grapes from three prime vineyards in three of Napa Valley’s premium growing regions, Oakville, Rutherford and Pritchard Hill, combine to create the powerful yet elegant Corra Cabernet Sauvignon. Corra, a Celtic deity representing prophecy, symbolizes this small brand’s forward-looking perspective. Showing herself on earth in the form of a crane, Corra takes wing and lifts her shadow to life. 4 070063 BARBOUR ESTATE NAPA CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2017 3X750 $189.95 $249.99 196574 BARBOUR ESTATE NAPA CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2016 3X750 $188.01 $241.99 “Jim Barbour was raised on his family’s ranch in Rutherford where he learned the life of farming, a passion for land, and the understanding that hard work breeds success.” After graduating from the University of California-Davis, Jim returned to Napa Valley to begin a career that would lead him to become one of Napa Valley’s most sought-after viticulturists. For over 40 years, he has been dedicated to his craft, producing premium wine grapes using traditional and contemporary hand-farming methods. Jim has planted and managed many prominent vineyards in the valley, including Hundred Acre, Grace Family, Checkerboard, Blankiet, Revana, Harbison Estate, Gandona Estate, The Vineyardist, Keever, Husic, Pillar Rock, Dr. Stephens, and more. 196582 REWA ESTATE NAPA CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2016 3X750 $274.02 $325.99 On a rocky knoll that once lay beneath the surface of a crater lake, formed by the cataclysmic eruption of a young volcano, lies Rewa Vineyards. The site’s 9 million years of geologic history guides today’s viticultural and winemaking practices, honouring the dissected topography of volcanic tuff, river-worn cobble and volcanic bedrock. Handcrafted by renowned winemaker Celia Welch from grapes grown by Mike Wolf, Rewa Vineyards’ small lot wines reflect the specificity of its place in Coombsville. Grapes are harvested by hand and delivered to the winery where clusters are sorted, removing damaged or blemished ones. Individual berries are carefully chosen by optical sorter, ensuring perfection of each grape that comprises Rewa Cabernet Sauvignon. 5 167257 DANA CABERNET SAUVIGNON VASO 2015 6X750 $112.04 $143.99 112522 DANA CABERNET SAUVIGNON ONDA 2016 6X750 $239.97 $307.99 167273 DANA CABERNET SAUVIGNON ONDA 2015 6X750 $243.99 $312.999 102515 DANA CABERNET SAUVIGNON LOTUS VINEYARD 2016 3X750 $633.97 $812.99 112502 DANA CABERNET SAUVIGNON HERSHEY VINEYARD 2016 3X750 $633.97 $812.99 167260 DANA CABERNET SAUVIGNON HERSHEY VINEYARD 2015 3X750 $639.00 $819.99 Dana is Sanskrit for “the Spirit of Generosity.” We express a profound appreciation for those that have worked the soil before us, as we build on the foundations laid by previous generations of vintners. Nestled at the base of the Mayacamas Mountains, Dana Estates is the third winery to occupy this piece of vineyard land in the heart of the famed Rutherford Bench. Proprietor Hi Sang Lee worked carefully with winemakers Philippe Melka and Cameron Vawter to insure that the space and facilities would enable the production of consistently world class wines. 054656 OVID EXPERIMENT W4.7 NAPA VALLEY WHITE 2017 6X750 $124.97 $160.99 054646 OVID EXPERIMENT M2.6 NAPA

  • CHEZ FRANÇOIS Restaurant Volume 25 Issue 1
    Spring 2012 CHEZ FRANÇOIS Restaurant Volume 25 Issue 1 555 Main Street, Vermilion, Ohio 44089 • www.Chezfrancois.com • A publication for friends and guests of Chez François. Dear Friend of Chez François, Thank you for your patronage this past year. We feel blessed to have you as our guest and we look forward to continued success this coming year. Fair, fair...what is all this talk about fairness? Few things are ever truly fair. It seems those who complain about fairness are the ones that don’t really do anything. They never learn that you have to work hard in life, yet feel entitled to many rights they never earned.When in fact, the only right they have in America is the right of Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. From early childhood we were taught that if you believe in an idea and work hard to execute and have faith in that idea, then you will be successful. It is easy to have an idea, but quite another to commit the time and effort on a daily basis. Inevitably, there will be negative influences along the way and those who will try to criticize, but diligence and persistence guide one through these times. Criticism is fine, as long as it’s constructive and one learns and improves from it, which is what we’ve done for the past 25 years...always striving for improvement in the pursuit of excellence. So if others are more successful than we are, bear in mind it is likely the result of a great deal of time and devotion towards a solid concept and often of great sacrifice too.

    Oral History Center, The Bancroft Library, University of California Berkeley Oral History Center University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California David Duncan David Duncan: Promoting Sustainability in Napa Wine The Napa Valley Vintners Oral History Project Interviews conducted by Martin Meeker in 2019 Copyright © 2019 by The Regents of the University of California Oral History Center, The Bancroft Library, University of California Berkeley ii Since 1954 the Oral History Center of The Bancroft Library, formerly 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 method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in 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. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and David Duncan dated May 24, 2019.

  • At Ovid, We Are Committed to the Idea and Practice Of
    { experiment } experiment: n. 1) a scientific procedure undertaken to make a discovery, test a hypothesis, or demonstrate a known fact; 2) a course of action tentatively adopted without being sure of the outcome; 3) a series of wines from Ovid Napa Valley celebrating experimentation in grape growing and winemaking. At Ovid, we are committed to the idea and practice of experimenta- tion in many facets of grape growing and winemaking, in order to learn more about our land and what will make the very best wine. We conduct formal experiments in order to investigate specific topics, and we participate in a variety of academic and applied studies as well. Sometimes we simply follow our curiosity, trying things several different ways, in order to reach for what we hope will be possible in both the vineyard and the winery. Our Experiment wines are a product of this process. Each vintage, we offer small amounts of different wines that we believe will be of special interest to you, allowing you to taste and experience new aspects of our vineyard and winemaking. 2017 red experiment n2.7 “The true method of knowledge is experiment.” —William Blake Sometimes you need an external frame of reference to reshape ideas or a new conversation to challenge perceptions. With this in mind, we decided to purchase a small amount of fruit from a neighboring vineyard. But first, we walked the rows, scrutinized the clone selection and studied the row orientation and trellis setup—learning the why and how of this site. Their different approach provides us the opportunity to learn and improve what we do here at the estate.
