Bringing on ‘old world’ style conversations, Chateau Montelena wines show astute balance and finesse. This 2010 Cabernet is a wonderful example of density, concentration and firm acidity.

  • Cabernet Sauvignon Thrives in J. Lohr's Paso Robles Vineyards On
    Cabernet sauvignon thrives in J. Lohr’s Paso Robles vineyards on the Estrella plateau on the east side of Highway 101. aso Robles may be America’s most dynamic wine region - and its most diverse. Splendid old-vine zinfandel, ageworthy and elegant cabernet Psauvignon, spicy yet supple pinot noir, and almost any white or red variety, from pinot grigio to petite syrah, are made here. World-class bottlings of viognier, roussanne, marsanne, syrah, grenache, and mourvèdre, either as beautifully inte- grated blends or as stand-alone varietals, proudly bear the Paso Robles name. Central to the region’s dynamism is an environment that is ideal for growing quality grapes and a core of talented producers, winemakers, and growers who have been attracted by the promise of Paso Robles. Discovering Paso Robles Although many wine lovers have discovered the charms of the area’s wines, it remains unknown to some and few would be able to place Paso Robles (“pass of the oaks” in Spanish) on a map of California. The town is located roughly halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco, and the Paso Robles American Viticultural Area (AVA), a heptagon- shaped area of more than 650,000 acres, covers much of northern San Luis Obispo County. Within this vast expanse are at least eight distinct subregions: the most important are the “Estrella Triangle” or plateau on the east side of Highway 101, the old- vine vineyards near Templeton established by Italian immigrants in the 1920s, and the Adelaida hills area near the western border of the AVA, west of the town of Paso Robles.

  • "Rupert Murdoch's Fingerprints on Moraga Wines" Zester Daily
    ZESTER DAILY 8·30·16 Corie Brown Rupert Murdoch’s Fingerprints On Moraga Wines A view of the Getty Center from the top of Moraga’s Bel Air vineyards. Credit: Copyright 2016 Zester Media Standing at the crest of Moraga Estate’s hillside vineyard, you can see Santa Monica Bay and feel the cool Pacific breezes that mark the estate’s wines. Moraga’s fruit ripens slowly, resulting in an elegance that eludes Bordeaux-style wines from Napa Valley and other California regions prone to heat spikes. But that’s not why this is possibly the most expensive vineyard acreage in the world. Moraga is located in Bel Air, the most exclusive of Los Angeles’ wealthy enclaves. On a recent visit to Moraga, I’m looking for a secondary mark on the wines, the mark of the current owner, billionaire media mogul Rupert Murdoch. Three years ago, with his marriage to Wendy Deng dissolving and a romance with Mick Jagger’s ex-wife Jerry Hall budding, Murdoch bought Los Angeles’ only post-Prohibition bonded winery and 13-acre estate for $28.8 million, an impetuous purchase sparked by an advertisement in The Wall Street Journal, one of his News Corp. properties. Little, if anything, has been written about the place or the wines since the sale. What changes has Murdoch made? 1 of 4 Rupert Murdoch’s Fingerprints On Moraga Wines Experienced hands at the helm The good news for wine lovers is that Scott Rich, the winemaker and viticulturist for the past 15 years, is still in charge. His summer instructions to the eight-member vineyard crew remain the same — handpick the leaves around the clusters to give them just the right amount of dappled sun and moisture-wicking breeze.

August 6, 2007 12:01am ET Order Reprints Print Articles SOME READERS HAVE ASKED WHAT FUTURE HOLDS for Barron Now, when its parent company, Dow Jones, agreed to be bought by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. We hope that someday this could mean, among other things, Barron's TV show on the soon-to-be-launched Fox Business Channel, perhaps more distribution of Barron's content in places like India and China, and more investment in Barron's Online, so that, for example, readers can more easily exchange views on their investments. This will not mean any change in the standards of accuracy, fairness and authority that underpin our journalism. Readers rely on Barron to give them a front row seat on Wall Street, so we can let them know what professionals think - and let them know when we feel the pros got it wrong or pushed the trend too far.
