Wine List WS Sale 011619 Test.Qxp Since opening in 1993, our wine list has featured American appellations, regions and varietals grown in California, Washington, Oregon, Virginia, New York and beyond. While we love our local wines, it’s a treat to share our love and affection for all the unique and unusual varietals grown in the U.S. The wine list has always been a reflection of the seasonal direction from the kitchen which draws its inspiration from local farmers, ranchers and fishermen. It’s important too, to support sustainability and then diversity of those who grow and make the wines. We offer -be it race, ..... gender, ethnicity, or origin. Fine domestic wines would not, however, exist if it were not for the painstaking efforts of farmers and vineyard managers to grow the highest quality grapes possible. And to that end, domestic grape growers continue to grow organic grapes and use organic vinicultural practices. The term “organic” in terms of modern vineyard management signifies farming practices which include the avoidance of pesticides, herbicides and the use of synthetic fertilizers for nurturing the vines. By removing these artificial external influences, farmers are producing healthier grapes whose flavors truly express their terroir. Over the years, we have seen a consider- able number of domestic vineyards become certified organic, and biodynamic. We salute growers who are committed to practicing sustainable agriculture, organic, non- interventional and biodynamic viticulture. Here in San Francisco, we are blessed to be surrounded by wine country in nearly every direction. To the north are Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino and Lake Counties. To the east lie Livermore Valley, the Sierra Foothills and Amador County. Heading south are the Santa Cruz Mountains, Monterey, the Central Coast, Paso Robles, Santa Barbara and Malibu. Each appellation is special and distinctive as to the grapes grown and the styles of wines produced, yet each has a common bond: Quality. At One Market Restaurant, we invite you to discover the delights in the kitchen and in the cellar. While most wine selections are domestic, we’re passionate about bubbles, hence the presence on the list of champagne and sparkling wine from all over the world. (You’ll also find a few gems from all over the globe.) (Special occasion or not, enjoy some bubbles from our extensive selection or a special bottle from a distant location ).

For many years, I have been in a love affair with New Zealand wines. New Zealand consists of two islands, the North and South Island. There are twelve regions grape growing areas. They are all wonderful expressions of the diverse landscape and varietals. The most well-known regions are Marlborough and Central Otago. I have curated a few of my favorites for you to discover and enjoy. Mt.

  • 2017 Wine Awards
    2017 Wine Awards ©2017 by The Orange County Wine Society ocws.org 714.708.1636 Page 1 of 173 Purpose This booklet lists the winners of the 41st Annual OC Fair & Event Center Commercial Wine Competition. The judging took place under rigidly controlled conditions on June 3rd & June 4th, 2017, at the Hilton Hotel, Costa Mesa, California. 2,457 different wines were judged and 1,726 were awarded medals. Scope The competition includes only wines from California grown grapes including still wines, fortified wines, infused wines, and sparkling wines. This year 80 judges tasted 104 varieties and styles in 405 categories classified by price and residual sugar level. The wine samples for judging are submitted by wineries. Wines arrive at the OC Fair & Event Center grounds where they are transferred to an air-conditioned building for unpacking and cataloging. There are no entry fees; however, wineries submit 6 bottles of each wine into the competition. These wines are divided into A, B, C, D, E and F bottles. All entries are verified, comparing the entry form to computer listing to the actual bottle placed in a specific box. The A bottles are bagged and labeled by code, varietal, bottle, price code and sugar level. During the competition, the A and B bottles are moved to the competition site. Just prior to judging all A bottles are verified to ensure they are in the proper serving order. B bottles are used only if a defective A bottle is found by the judges. The judging is performed by professionals; each judge is either a winemaker or winery principal.

  • Types of Wine COMMON WINE TYPES
    Types of wine What’s on the label Wine “varietals” simply means wine made from a specific grape. Varietal wines in the United States are often named after the dominant grapes used in making the wine. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Noir, and Chenin Blanc are examples of grape varieties. When a wine bottle shows a varietal designation on the label (like Merlot) it means that the wine in the bottle is at least 75% that grape variety (at least 75% Merlot, for example). Showing a varietal on the label tells the consumer what to expect from the flavor of the wine. That’s why learning about basic varietals in important. Wines are not required to carry varietal designations and cannot legally do so if the wine is a blend where no varietal is dominant (more than 75%). This is often the case. Then labels (in the U.S.) will often show the percentages of grapes used to make the blend. Other more generic names are used to identify wine without any information on the type of grape used or where it was grown. Examples are Red Wine, White Wine, Table Wine, Blush Wine, etc.. COMMON WINE TYPES Albariño Spanish white wine grape that makes crisp, refreshing, and light-bodied wines. Aligoté White wine grape grown in Burgundy making medium-bodied, crisp, dry wines with spicy character. Amarone From Italy’s Veneto Region a strong, dry, long- lived red, made from a blend of partially dried red grapes. Arneis A light-bodied dry wine the Piedmont Region of Italy Asti Spumante From the Piedmont Region of Italy, A semidry sparkling wine produced from the Moscato di Canelli grape in the village of Asti Auslese German white wine from grapes that are very ripe and thus high in sugar Banylus A French wine made from late-harvest Grenache grapes and served with chocolate or dishes with a hint of sweetness.

Your unconditional love is inspirational and a source of my strength. Ari, thanks for your encouragement across the miles. This journey was not a solitary one; without the camaraderie of fellow Cape Wine Masters students Conrad Louw and Sandy Harper it might not be complete. We have seen each other through the highs and lows of the course since we met in Diploma studies, spurring one another on and providing sturdy shoulders on which to lean. Thank you both for everything and look forward to sharing our passion for wine not because we have to taste something, but because we want to!
