    FEBruary 2017 A WINE ENTHUSIAST’S MONTHLY JOURNEY THROUGH MONTEREY’S WINE COUNTRY STORE HOURS On Top of the Hill Cima Collina roughly translates as “hill top,” and there’s really no A Taste of Monterey better way to describe the quality Cima Collina winery produces. Cannery Row Here at A Taste of Monterey, we are excited to have Cima Collina represented as one of Monterey County’s top wineries. A quote Sun-Thu 11am-6pm from winemaker, Annette Hoff, truly reflects the character and approach of the winery. Fri-Sat 11am-8pm* “Local flavors are as diverse as the Monterey County landscape. From the rugged Big Sur coastline to the prairie lands of Arroyo Seco, every vineyard develops its own set of diverse flavors. It is our passion to discover these local flavors and produce unfined, Food service begins at unfiltered wines that reflect a sense of place. Our meticulous, artisan approach preserves and enhances these local flavors from 11:30am daily the finest Monterey County vineyards.” *No new member tastings Cima Collina’s tasting room is located in Carmel Valley Village in a build- after 6pm ing originally constructed in the 1880s as a creamery owned by a Carmel Valley pioneer, William Hatton (locals will recognize the name’s legacy in the name of a particular canyon). This creamery produced our very own Monterey Jack cheese. Yes, it really was first produced here in Monterey County. After its creamery days were through, the building served as Carmel Valley’s first post office. You can’t get much more grounded in Monterey County than housing your tasting room in a building tied so delicately to the area’s history.

  • 2018 Bronson Bros. Our Most Fruit-Forward GSM Blend Features Layers of Rich Fruit from Grenache, Counoise, and Petite Sirah
    2018 Bronson Bros. Our most fruit-forward GSM blend features layers of rich fruit from Grenache, Counoise, and Petite Sirah. It’s redolent with red cherry and red raspberry that is surrounded by savory notes of dried herbs, garrigue, and tobacco with a hint of red velvet cake on the finish. This medium body wine is smooth yet multi-layered with a bright and elegant finish. This wine is a welcoming little mosaic, which pairs with many foods, and you will keep coming back for more! The wine’s name honors the first winemakers in Placerville, the Bronson Brothers, who established a nursery and vineyard in Smith Flat, just across the street from the present-day Smith Flat House and began producing wines in 1857. For a number of years, they were the largest winemakers in the County. From the top of the ridge above our Amphitheater, you can see the site of their vineyard. One hundred sixty-three years later, their vision survives in this lovely GSM blend. WINE ENTHUSIAST POINTS92 WINE PROFILE GRAPE VARIETY: 26% Grenache, 23% Syrah, 18% Mourvèdre, 12% Petite Sirah, 9% Counoise, 7% Cinsaut, 5% Roussanne APPELLATION: El Dorado AVA VINEYARD: Starfield Estate VINES: Planted 2013 - 2015 ELEVATION & SITE: 2,300-2,400 feet. Grenache and Mourvèdre are planted near the top of the hill, where they bask in the afternoon sun, as does Petite Sirah, which is planted on a south-facing slope just below the lake. Syrah and Roussanne grow on cooler north and east slopes near the Tasting Room, while Cinsaut is planted in the cooler part of the vineyard, at the bottom of the hill, preserving its delicate aromas.

  • 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.
