  • Colin Hampden-White Takes a Trip Across the Daddy of American Wine
    Golden Nuggets Golden Nuggets merica is, as stated, the United States of Amer- ica. These states may be united but, as we all know, each state is very different from the oth- er. One state that makes a big difference to the Awhole of the USA, politically, economically and culturally, is California. The political hub of the USA may be Washington DC, New York the economic hub and many other states lay claim to being centres of culture, but California stakes its claim as the country’s major wine state. There may be oth- 70 er states growing wine, such as Oregon and Washington, 71 California but California is the daddy of the wine states. Winemaking began in California in the late 1860s and thrived until two major events occurred. Firstly, there was phylloxera, then from 1919 to 1933 there was Prohibition. Prohibition practically wiped out all but a few wineries. The survivors were making wine for the Church. Following this period, there were two main pioneers of winemaking in Cal- ifornia. First there was Ernest and Julio Gallo, who started Dreamin’ their business in 1933, directly after Prohibition. There was plenty of competition, but they concentrated their efforts on commercial winemaking from pre-prohibition pamphlets found in the basement of the Modesto public library. This became the essence of their initial success. E & J Gallo is now the largest wine company in the USA. A decade after the Gallo brothers began, Robert Mon- davi joined the family business in 1943. The Mondavi family had shortly before bought the Charles Krug winery.

  • Mas La Plana 2016
    SPAIN | DO PENEDÈS MIGUEL TORRES MACZASSEK Managing Director MAS LA PLANA 2016 ABOUT THE FAMILY Familia Torres founded its first winery in Vilafranca del Penedès in 1870, 150 years ago, but its roots in the winegrowing traditions of Spain date back to the 16th century. Five generations have carried the family business forward, passing on their passion for wine culture from parents to children – a passion steeped in respect for land and tradition, and a firm belief in innovation. Today the family focuses on wines from unique vineyards and historical estates, as well as the recovery of ancestral varieties. Familia Torres has a historical connection to Penedès, Conca de Barberà, Priorat, and Costers del Segre, but now its presence extends to vineyards and wineries in preeminent Spanish wine regions – Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Rueda, and Rías Baixas. ABOUT THE WINE A 1979 blind tasting in Paris, the Gault-Millau Wine Olympics, placed French Cabernets such as Châteaux Latour against newcomers including Torres. The wine from Mas la Plana vineyard triumphed over some of the world’s most iconic, placing first, which put Penedès on the map as benchmark quality for the best red wines in the world. KEY SELLING POINTS • 100% Cabernet Sauvignon • The first vintage, 1970, won 1st place in the 1979 Wine Olympics in Paris • 50+ year old vineyard, home to the Torres Family • Familia Torres came in 3rd place on Drinks International’s 2020 list of Most Admired Wine Brands, while leading the European ranking for the 10th year in a row TECHNICAL DETAILS Appellation: DO Penedès | Varietal Composition: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon “From a dry vintage, with Aging: 18 months in new French oak barrels from Tronçais and Nevers from a selection of the best coopers Cabernet Sauvignon vines planted on deep alluvial soils, winemaker Alcohol: 14.5% | Total Acidity: 5.8 g/L Miguel Torres describes this as: ‘A very classic vintage of Mas La Plana.’ Black fruit aromas – blackberry, blackcurrant – some blackcurrant leaf, coffee and dark chocolate hints.

  • Basics to Food and Wine Pairing Turns out There Are the Main Basic Flavor Profiles That You Can Experiment with to Develop a Great Food and Wine Pairing
    Basics to Food and Wine Pairing Turns out there are the main basic flavor profiles that you can experiment with to develop a great food and wine pairing. Here we take a look at the fundamental flavor profiles for food and wine pairing as well as the regional pairing example and why it works. Learn to match food and wine like a professional chef or sommelier. Bitter, fat, acid, salt, sweetness and alcohol balance together to make a perfect pairing. The 6 Basics to Food and Wine Pairing. I was half asleep in the morning in my Restaurant until Chef Mike boomed in his signature snide- but-charismatic voice, “Cooking is simply a balance of fat, acid, salt and sweet.” At the time, I was not a glorious writer of hedonism (aka wine), but part of the service staff gleaning knowledge on how to sell food. What Mina touched on struck a chord and helped me to isolate what I need to go about constructing a food and wine pairing. The basics of flavor-matching are actually quite simple (although not always easy to pull off). These are the 6 basic profiles to work with when thinking about matching food and wine: 1. Acidity in wine pairs well with fatty and sweet foods. 2. Fatty foods need either an acidic or high alcohol wine, otherwise the wine will taste flabby. 3. Bitter (aka Tannic) wine can be balanced with a sweet food. 4. Salty shouldn’t compete with acidity in wine. Use sparingly as necessary to keep sharpness in the meal.

  • Pairing Wine with Bites
    Pairing Wine with Bites AT OUR DOWNTOWN TASTING ROOM FALL 2018 Try this at home! Guests often say that one of their favorite parts of visiting our Downtown Tasting Room is the paired flight with bites. These fabulous amuse-bouche perfectly matched to our wines is a collaboration between Mrs. Jan Krupp, Dr. Jan Krupp and Tasting Room Manager Jon Bain. The pairings change with our new releases, but the philosophy is the same — each should enhance the flavor of the other. We thought we’d share some of the favorites so you can try at home! 2016 BLACK BART’S BRIDE with Tomee Brulee We’ve paired our French Rhone varietal white with a sheep’s milk cheese from the Basque region of France. The cheese’s mouth-filling flavors, both sweet and salty, interplay with the Bride’s creaminess and acid and enhance the wine’s lovely flower and peach notes. 2017 THE DAMSEL ROSÉ with Campo de Montalbán & Quince Paste This semi-firm Spanish cheese offers a wonderful texture for the acid of the rosé. But the real star is the quince paste, which brings out the ripe strawberry flavors of the Damsel. The pair explodes in your mouth. 2017 THE WATER WITCH with Artisanal Chocolate Cherry The dried cherry enhances the bright red fruit notes of raspberry, cherry and rose petal while the chocolate draws out the subtle notes of cedar and sweet cigar spice. This one is a crowd favorite! 2014 THE DOCTOR with Le Belge Chocolate From Belgium, Le Belge takes The Doctor to the next level, with the rich dark chocolate enhancing the spice and black pepper in the wine.

The cover story was about a scandal involving the honor system at West Point. Back on page 58 in the Modern Living section was a modest story entitled "Judgment of Paris." The lead story of the sec­ tion was about a new theme park in Atlanta, and my article about the wine tasting filled out the last column. No photograph accompanied the Paris article, the normal sign of a significant story. In fact, the page it was on was overwhelmed by an ad for Armstrong tires. The last sentence of the first paragraph told it all: "Last week in Paris, at a formal wine tasting organized by Spurrier, the unthinkable happened: California defeated all Gaul." The day after the Time story appeared, something unusual was hap­ pening at Manhattan's Acker Merrall & Condit, America's oldest wine shop, then located on the Upper West Side on Broadway between West Eighty­ sixth and West Eighty-seventh streets.
