  • Tannat: Home Away from Home
    feature / vinifera / Tannat TANNAT: HOME AWAY FROM HOME From Tannat’s contested South American debut, back to its origins in southwest France, and forward to its latest outposts in New Zealand, Julia Harding MW charts the rise of this climate-sensitive and terroir- transparent grape variety, now producing a thrilling range of wines orget the tango and dulce de leche, the competitive debate now simmering concerns Tannat’s first home in South America. Those waving the Argentine flag claim that the variety was brought to their country toward the end of the 19th century byF the Basque farmer Juan Jáuregui (born in Irouleguy in 1812), who traveled from Bordeaux to Montevideo in 1835, moving north to Salto before crossing the River Uruguay and settling in Concordia in the province of Entre Ríos in southern Argentina, immediately opposite the Uruguayan town of Salto. According to Alberto Moroy, a specialist in Argentinian and Uruguayan history, writing in Uruguay’s national newspaper El Pais in March 2016, Jáuregui planted the first Tannat cuttings in Concepción in 1861, brought over from France by his nephew Pedro Jáuregui. They apparently came via his paternal grandfather from the estate of Louis XVI. (Moroy’s account is based on a book by Frenchman Alexis Pierre Louis Edouard Peiret, A visit to the Colonies of the Argentine Republic, published in Buenos Airesin 1889.) Jáuregui was also the first to make wine in Concordia. The story continues with another Basque, Don Pascual Harriague (1819–94), who emigrated from Lapurdi (Labourd) to Uruguay in 1838 and settled in Montevideo. In 1840 he moved north to Salto, which is where he became interested in farming and eventually in grape-growing.

  • Bibi Graetz Wines, the Name Is Very Evocative, “Casa-Matta”: the “Crazy-House”, Is Our Bright and Approachable Version of White Tuscan Blend
    BI BI GRAETZ CASAMATTA Bianco 2016 The “Crazy-House” Like most of Bibi Graetz wines, the name is very evocative, “Casa-Matta”: the “Crazy-House”, is our bright and approachable version of white Tuscan blend. The Vermentino brings freshness, the Moscato Bianco elevate the aromatics and Trebbiano increase the balance and the harmony of the blend. Winemaker’s Tasting Notes Vermentino 60%, Trebbiano 30%, Moscato Bianco 10% “When I drink Casamatta Bianco I’m immediately projected on the Tuscan coast. This is a wine that reflects the soil, the sun and the perfumes of Maremma. The first impression is the floral notes of Moscato, orange and peach flowers, then in the palate you have the citrus of the Vermentino, pear and exotic fruits” Bibi Graetz Vintage 2016: the growing season After a great 2015, the expectation of having another sensational vintage were very low, usually it’s hard to have 2 great vintages one after the other. What we realized with the 2016 is that this is not the case. This vintage is at the same level of 2015 and someone says it’s even better! Very cold winter, with some touches of snow guaranteed, with a mild and sunny spring, perfect conditions for the develop of the plants. The summer was a bit warmer then 2015 with only few days of rain in the beginning of August and the harvest period was fully insolated and anticipated to the 12th of September. Vinification and Ageing Casamatta Bianco is produced from the vineyards of Capalbio, south of Tuscany in Maremma. The grapes are hand-picked and fermented in stainless steel tanks, destammed and softpressed with dry ice.

  • 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Grown Rutherford Napa Valley
    2017 CABERNET SAUVIGNON ESTATE GROWN RUTHERFORD NAPA VALLEY A BRIEF HISTORY For decades, it has been our goal to produce a Rutherford AVA, estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon. Inspired by the early Cabernets of Inglenook and Beaulieu Vineyard, we’ve spent the past 20 years finding, farming and obtaining highly sought after land in Rutherford—with particular attention to the Rutherford Bench—to pursue our dream and perfect our craft. It all began with the acquisition of the Red Barn Vineyard in 1994. This prime real estate provided us with 40 acres of soil perfectly suited to grow Merlot and Cabernet sauvignon and a century-old facility in which we would become Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon producers for the first time. Immediately following our move to Rutherford, Frank Leeds—longtime Frog’s Leap Vineyardist—agreed to a partnership between Frog’s Leap and his family’s Chavez Leeds Vineyard. This generational vineyard situated on the iconic Rutherford Bench gave us our first real taste of how complex and connected dry-farmed, organically-grown Cabernet Sauvignon from this storied part of the appellation could be. Finally, in 2007, we purchased the historic Rossi Vineyard located in the very heart of the Rutherford Bench. This 50 acre vineyard was purchased by the Rossi family in 1906 and is located only a stone’s throw away from the two vineyards that originally inspired us. Now mostly planted to Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc the Rossi Vineyard completed the picture by yielding high quality Rutherford grapes for an all estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon to stand with our predecessors.

  • View from the Cellar
    VIEW FROM THE CELLAR Giornata Another new winery to me this time around was Giornata, based in Paso Robles, who is specializing in Italian varietals and also making simply stellar wines. Giornata is the brainchild of Brian and Stefanie Terrizzi, who have made the pilgrimage from more standard 72 California varietals at their various previous positions to passionate and very gifted producers of truly Italian-styled wines from top vineyards in California’s Central Coast. This is not something that I had ever thought about as overly promising, though probably much of my lack of enthusiasm for Italian varietals on American soil may have to do with the rather desultory examples of Sangiovese I have tasted over the years from California. Clearly, the Giornata wines are cut from a very different cloth! I was absolutely enthralled by the quality of their very classically-styled Nebbiolo, Aglianico and other bottlings and look forward to following their progress with each passing vintage. 2014 Vermentino- Giornata (Paso Robles) The 2014 Vermentino from Brian and Stefanie Terrizzi is excellent and very classi- cally made (like all of their wines), fermented and raised in stainless steel and bottled fairly early to preserve freshness and bounce on the palate. The bouquet is lovely, wafting from the glass in a vibrant blend of apple, green olive, salty soil tones, citrus peel and a nice topnote of freshlyculled herbs. On the palate the wine is pure, fullish, crisp and complex, with lovely minerality and a long, complex and zesty finish. A lovely Vermentino. 2016-2020. 91. 2014 Barbera- Giornata (Paso Robles) The 2014 Barbera from Giornata is fermented with indigenous yeasts and raised primarily in a thousand liter foudre, with the overflow finding its way into old casks for its relatively short elevage.

  • Sella & Mosca La Cala Vermentino
    SELLA & MOSCA LA CALA VERMENTINO In Italy and elsewhere in Europe, wine connoisseurs and industry professionals rate Sella & Mosca among Italy's most outstanding wine estates. Sella & Mosca's I Piani estate in Sardinia constitutes the second largest contiguous vineyard in Italy and counts itself among the country's most impressive wineries. Situated in the northwest corner of Sardinia, just inland from the pretty, historic port of Alghero, this 1,600-acre property with more than 1,200 acres of vines is one of the largest wine estates in Europe As Sardinia's foremost wine producer, Sella & Mosca is renowned for premium wines made exclusively from estate-grown grapes. In addition to native varieties such as Vermentino and Cannonau, the winery has successfully pioneered the introduction of international grape varieties, notably Cabernet Sauvignon. A favorite of the jet set at Sardinia’s chic resorts, La Cala is the ultimate definition of the Vermentino grape. It is romantically named for a small, secluded cove fringed by violet- colored thistles on the edge of the Sella & Mosca estate. Few wines rival La Cala for its exceptional affinity with seafood, thanks to the very subtle presence of a natural marine salinity in the wine, credited to the Mediterranean location of Sella & Mosca’s Vermentino vineyards. PRODUCTION AREA Country: Italy Region: Sardinia Appellation: Vermentino di Sardegna DOC Soil Type; ancient alluvial terrain GRAPE VARIETIES 100% Vermentino PRODUCTION TECHNIQUES The grapes are harvested manually and mechanically in September. After harvest, selected grape bunches are exposed to the warm autumnal sunlight and undergo a brief, natural drying process.

  • Il Ghizzano Bianco
    IL GHIZZANO BIANCO WINERY & VINEYARD The Venerosi Pesciolini family settled in the Colline Pisane area in the 14th century. For 26 generations, the family has been growing vines, olive trees, and cereals with a deep respect for tradition and terroir. Since 1996 Countess Ginevra Venerosi Pesciolini has run the estate. Colline Pisane comprises a range of gently rolling hills southeast of Pisa, none higher than 200 meters. Once covered by the sea, the sandy-limy-clay soil of Pliocene origin is very rich in fossil shells. Ghizzano’s 20-hectare (48-acre) estate is certified organic by Suolo e Salute; and all wines are certified USDA organic beginning with the 2010 vintage. Since 2006, biodynamic principles are also employed. Wood is used as the instrument for the evolution of wine in time, to allow it to mature, without overpowering the fruit; resulting in wines with superior ageability and the right balance. THE HARVEST & VINIFICATION Grapes are hand picked and placed into small-aerated crates with a capacity of approximately 20 kg. Following meticulous selection on the sorting table, grapes are destalked. The Trebbiano and Malvasia Bianca grapes are left on their skins for a whole night before pressing to extract more character and then are fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks for 3 months. TASTING NOTES In the “White Version” of Il Ghizzano, the aromatic fruit of Vermentino is enriched by the strong character of Trebbiano and balanced by the texture of Malvasia Bianca. Optimal ripening for all 3 grapes creates a wine which is very easy to drink.

  • Inglenook Historical Timeline : 1842 - 2011
    INGLENOOK HISTORICAL TIMELINE : 1842 - 2011 1842 30th August – Gustav Ferdinand Nybom is born in Helsinki, Finland. 1861 Nybom graduates from the Nautical Institute in Helsinki (19 years old) After receiving his master papers from Nautical Institute, Nybom (22 yrs old) commands a ship headed to Alaska, which is part of the Russian 1864 Empire. Not long after the US purchase of Alaska, Nybom sails into San Francisco harbour with a ship loaded with Alaskan furs. He creates the Alaska Commercial Company (26 yrs old) which, for the next 50 years, would build important trading stations in the Yukon and Aleutian Islands. 1868 The company also owned ocean steamers, sailing vessels and river boats, which were the only means of transportation to and from San Francisco during the Gold Rush, as well as fur operations and salmon canneries. William C Watson, son in law of George C Yount (founder of Yountville) and manager of the Bank of Napa, buys the 78 acre G. Koni farm, west of Rutherford.
