  • Domaine Porto Carras: a Greek Experience with Old World Vines
    LEISURE / FOOD & DRINK / DRINKS Domaine Porto Carras: A Greek experience with old world vines March 18, 2014 5:26 PM MST View all 7 photos Enjoying the wines of Domaine Porto Carras and the cuisine from Ulysses Voyage. Any Olsen Opportunities come in many forms and when you are a wine lover it could be experiencing wines from a new region. In my case, the door opened for me to discover Greek wines. The wines were those of Domaine Porto Carras. In Greece there are 330 varietals of which only seventy- eight are imported. Many of these varietals are native to Greece. Most the wine in Greece is produced in the northern portion of the country. There are twenty different wine regions and the location of Domaine Porto Carras is an appellation onto its own as encompasses the Sithonia Peninsula. This peninsula is one of three that make up the Halkidiki Peninsula, which runs from the city of Thessaloniki south to the Aegean Sea and is shaped like a hand with three fingers. Sithonia is the middle finger. Situated along the coast of Sithonia, the winery sits atop a Cori Solomon hill on the slopes of Mount Meliton and affords magnificent views of the Greek coastline. There are 1100 acres of terraced vineyards, which make it ideal to grow Bordeaux varietals in addition to the Greek ones. The winery is planted with twenty-seven varietals of which thirteen are French and the other fourteen are those native to Greece. The grapes used for the Domanine Porto Carras wines are organically grown and utilize dry farm irrigation.

    D E N A R Y C U V É E Artisanal producer of Pomerol-inspired wines WINEMAKER: Aaron Pott PRESIDENT: Paul Leary FOUNDER: Michael Polenske 2012 DENARY CUVÉE NAPA VALLEY PROPRIETARY RED WINE The 2012 Denary Cuvée offers exquisite aromas of blackberry, blueberry and tobacco. This predominately Cabernet Franc blend celebrates the tenth anniversary of winemaking for Blackbird Vineyards. Showcasing textured layers of chocolate and nutmeg combined with fine-grained tannin and cedar overlay, the supple finish is round and balanced, providing persistent length of flavor. With no frost, a mild spring and summer and a peaceful Fall, the 2012 vintage was what some describe as an ideal growing season. BLEND: 54% Cabernet Franc - 28% Merlot - 18% Cabernet Sauvignon HARVEST: Fall 2012 RELEASE: Spring 2015 BARREL REGIME: 21 months in French Oak barrels - 75% new, 25% seasoned ALCOHOL: 14.7% PRODUCTION: 20 barrels OPTIMUM DRINKING: 2015 - 2028 PRICE : $150.00 per 750ml bottle VINEYARDS Each wine in the portfolio is a true example of Blackbird’s ongoing commitment to quality by partnering with a selection of Napa Valley’s most prestigious vineyards. Blackbird Vineyard - Located in the Oak Knoll District, Blackbird’s estate vineyard, with clay soils underlaid by gravel, is an ideal site for Merlot. The region’s cool nights preserve acidity in the fruit, providing natural balance. Hudson Vineyard - Perched on a rolling hillside in the cool climate of Carneros, the Hudson Vineyard is a high-quality fruit source for Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Stagecoach Vineyard - Atop the Vaca Mountains south of Pritchard Hill, the rocky, volcanic terroir of the Stagecoach Vineyard produces intense Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
