An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have.Andy WarholAnd you don’t need to have Champagne, but scientists have just proven that Champagne is good for your cognitive functions- IE your brain. Check out the scientists’ evidence at the end of this e-mail and get your Champagne here!!Champagne is the name of a region and therefore anything inside the boundaries of Champagne can use this name on their label, everything else is just sparkling wine. The important thing to look for on the label when it comes to sparkling wines outside of the Champagne region is the method of production and if the words, methode champenoise are there then we’re in business ! This means that the sparkling wine in the bottle is made with the same standards that are used in the great sparkling wines from the Champagne region of France and that the secondary fermentation that makes the bubbles happens in that same bottle that you have in front of you.Vintage Champagne in the past was made only 3-5 times in a decade but thanks to climate change or global warming we are seeing vintage Champagne produced 9 out of 10 years in a decade ! This tasting contains some of the greatest Champagne houses with Champagnes going back to the 1996 vintage.This tasting is limited to 10 tasters, the fee for this event is $795 + tax and that includes dinner and gratuity!

$120.49Scientists find evidence that Champagne is good for your brain !New research shows that drinking one to three glasses of champagne a week may counteract the memory loss associated with ageing, and could help delay the onset of degenerative brain disorders, such as dementia.Scientists at the University of Reading have shown that the phenolic compounds found in champagne can improve spatial memory, which is responsible for recording information about one's environment, and storing the information for future navigation.The compounds work by modulating signals in the hippocampus and cortex, which control memory and learning. The compounds were found to favourably alter a number of proteins linked to the effective storage of memories in the brain. Many of these are known to be depleted with age, making memory storage less efficient, and leading to poorer memory in old age and conditions such as dementia. Champagne slows these loses and therefore may help prevent the cognitive losses that occur during typical and atypical brain ageing.Champagne has relatively high levels of phenolics compared to white wine, deriving predominantly from the two red grapes, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, which are used in its production along with the white grape Chardonnay. It is these phenolic compounds which are believed to be responsible for the beneficial effects of champagne on the brain.Professor Jeremy Spencer, Department of Food and Nutritional Sciences, University of Reading, said: "These exciting results illustrate for the first time that the moderate consumption of champagne has the potential to influence cognitive functioning, such as memory. Such observations have previously been reported with red wine, through the actions of flavonoids contained within it."However, our research shows that champagne, which lacks flavonoids, is also capable of influencing brain function through the actions of smaller phenolic compounds, previously thought to lack biological activity. We encourage a responsible approach to alcohol consumption, and our results suggest that a very low intake of one to two glasses a week can be effective."Dr. David Vauzour, the researcher on the study, added: "in the near future we will be looking to translate these findings into humans. This has been achieved successfully with other polyphenol-rich foods, such as blueberry and cocoa, and we predict similar outcomes for moderate Champagne intake on cognition in humans." Previous research from the University of Reading revealed that two glasses of champagne a day may be good for your heart and circulation and could reduce the risks of suffering from cardiovascular disease and stroke.The paper is published in Antioxidants and Redox Signalling.For all media enquiries please contact Alex Brannen 07834 006 243 or James Barr 07788 714376Notes for editors:The University of Reading is ranked among the top 1% of universities in the world (THE World University Rankings 2012) and is one of the UK's top research-intensive universitiesThe Department of Food and Nutritional Sciences is the largest University department of its kind in the UK, combining state of the art teaching facilities, clinical nutrition unit, labs and the largest pilot processing plant in the UK.

Thoughts on the matter: “I like all paintings. I always look at the paintings, good or bad, in barbershops, furniture stores, provincial hotels. I’m like a drinker who needs wine.

I like to drink wine more than I used to...Don Corleone, The GodfatherThe wines that I like to drink seem to all start with a "B", Barolo, Barbaresco, Burgundy, Bordeaux and of course Brunello.Brunello is the wine with top billing in Tuscany is for the last half of century, a DOCG from a fortress town south of Siena with reds of legendary power and longevity that have commanded lofty prices. The wines of this world-renowned region of Tuscany were conceived by the Biondi Santi family a century ago, today Brunello di Montalcino is produced under scores of labels, representing small farms, established estates and even international corporations. By the turn of the 21st century, there are over 250 producers of Brunello di Montalcino, mostly small farmers and family estates, producing nearly 330,000 cases a year.We have a great collection of Brunello di Montalcino in the store and we always host a tasting to showcase the newest release from this fortress town and this year the highly anticipated 2021 vintage has just been released and after a few average vintages in 2017, 2018 and 2020 Brunello fans are salivating to taste the latest greatest release which has been touted as outstanding by the press.Before we show you young Brunello di Montaclino we always host an event to showcase just how well these wines age, so you can taste the 2021 vintage on Thursday, September 10th but first you have a chance to taste wines that are drinking in their peak years in two weeks. We are doing serious scientific work with Brunello over the next few weeks and if you love Sangiovese these are the top examples but you have to be optimistic if you are buying the young wines from Montalcino as they need another 8-10 years in the cellar after they are released!All the wines at this tasting will be 16+ years old and even though Brunello is held back for 5 years by law the greatest vintages need another 10+ years in the cellar to reach their peak years of drinkability so these wines should all be at their peak years of drinking!Join us as experience some of the best vintage Brunello di Montalcino that we have in the store back to the 1978 vintage along with a special dinner by Chef Toni. The fee for this event which includes dinner is $375 + tax, for reservations call 954-523-9463 or e-mail andy@winewatch.com.

Bring water, bring wine, boy! Bring flowering garlands to me! Yes, bring them, so that I may try a bout with love. ~AnacreonThe first people who planted grapes in Washington were the German and Italian immigrants and that was around 1825.Chateau Ste. Michelle is Washington state’s Founding Winery, with some of the oldest and most acclaimed vineyards in the Columbia Valley.Built on the 1912 estate owned by Seattle lumber baron Frederick Stimson, the winery’s roots date back to the Repeal of Prohibition, when the Pommerelle Wine Company and the National Wine Company were formed. They merged in 1954 to form American Wine Growers. In 1967, American Wine Growers began a new line of premium vinifera wines called “Ste. Michelle Vintners” under the direction of legendary California winemaker Andre Tchelistcheff.Ste. Michelle Vintners planted its first vines at Cold Creek Vineyard in Eastern Washington in 1972. Cold Creek remains one of the oldest and most renowned vineyards in the state. Ste. Michelle Vintners now own more than 3,500 prime vineyard acres in the Columbia Valley.Some of the other founding fathers of the Washington state wine industry are- Leonetti Cellars, Woodward Canyon and Quilceda Creek. These three producers are the first “cult wines” from Washington state and basically the second round of producers to move in.Leonetti Cellar, which was bonded in 1977 by Founders Gary and Nancy Figgins, started as Gary’s vision to make world-class wines in Walla Walla has turned out to be a true American success story. Today, Leonetti Cellar produces some of the most sought after wines not onlyfrom Washington state but in the world.Woodward Canyon Winery was one of the first two wineries to help put the Walla Walla Valley on Washington State's wine map. From its first powerful 1981 cabernet sauvignon to the new releases today they have been among this state's top producers and we have actually have some of these wines in our tasting tonight!Founded in 1979, Quilceda Creek has had an unbroken string of highly-rated vintages that has led Robert Parker Jr. to name it Washington State’s premier Cabernet Sauvignon producer with five vintages receiving (100 points) from Robert Parker Jr.'s The Wine Advocate, this is the mosxt sought after collectible. Although we are not showing any Quilceda Creek this evening we do have several vintages available for sale after the notice of this tasting we have a list of all the Washington state wines in the store.The industry and been expanding rapidly, Washington is the second largest wine producing state with just over 500 wineries in 2007. Just a few short years later, today there are over 700 with the giant Chateau St. Michelle leading the way in terms of size.Join us as we take you on a tour of Washington State wines here at the Wine Watch Wine Bar. We have a great selection of wines to discover and chef Toni will be making some tasty treats to accompany the wines. The fee for this tasting is $95 + tax, for reservations call 954-523-9463 or e-mail andy@winewatch.com. Happy Hour Wine Tasting Featuring the Wines of Washington StateThursday, August 27th6pm2020 J.

The combination of long-aged powerful Cabernet Sauvignon and fresh fruity young Syrah from Washington's ripest vintage fill this deliciously affordable wine.2020 J Bookwalter Winery 'Conflict' Red Blend Columbia ValleyPrice: $59.75 Your Price: $53.78 Quantity in Stock: 9(90 points) "This blend is a tannic beast that needs decanting or time to tame. Aged for 20 months in French oak, 70% new, its leathery texture and grippy tannins are like a vinous version of a Spartan battle tunic. Aromas and flavors of boysenberries, blackberries, black tea and lilacs. Only brave hearts need approach." Wine Enthusiast.2017 J Bookwalter Winery Volume Seven, Columbia Valley, USAPrice: $125.00 Your Price: $112.50In the heart of the Columbia Valley, Dionysus Block 18 enjoys breathtaking views alongside the Columbia River. Its southwest facing slopes of sand over deep gravel beds are ideal soils for exacting irrigation. Block 18 was planted in 2000 to clone #8 Cabernet Sauvignon on Dionysus’ SW hillside, 1,000 yards from the Columbia River. We designed this reserve cuvée to show off Dionysus Vineyard’s character through Cabernet Sauvignon’s singular best expression. This bottling is among our most powerful and age worthy red wines. Concentrated and filled with ripe fruit it will deliver pleasure decades to all who pursue Cabernet’s special gifts.VINTAGEThe 2017 is another stunning vintage at Bookwalter. Despite smoke haze during harvest, because of careful testing our wines’ natural character was preserved and classic flavor extraction to ideal reserve proportions was achieved. 2017 yielded an average crop which ripened early in the season. We lowered our yields and by harvest the vintage was measuring abundant color and tannin. Our vintage portfolio carries a volume an weight that matched our house style of rich and smooth age worthy reds. Spring’s early budbreak and flowering in June at Dionysus Vineyard was followed by a warm month of heat creating small cluster yields. Summer temperatures were hotter than average again with many July and August days over 100°F. Verasion began in early August and completed quickly, a hallmark of great vintages. Our well managed vineyard blocks had fruit shaded by a few west side leaves keeping fruit from sunburn. We picked our fruit perfectly ripe at 125 days of ripening.WINEMAKINGThe Dionysus 18 block Cabernet Sauvignon was picked in clear weather and rescued from the difficult smoke haze of early harvest. Rigorous lab testing of all fruit revealed summer smoke haze had not damaged this vineyard by great fortune. Hand sorted in the vineyard then picked by Pellenc Selectiv at perfect timing in the last weeks of September for merlot and first weeks of October for Cabernets. We mixed by pump over and punch down for 22 days two tanks which we felt were the best of the vineyard and showing the best of the harvest tanks. The vintage was measured for anthocyanins and tannins daily allowing us a perfect balance of extractables to build into these two special reserves. Fermentation completed in new GAMBA French oak puncheons. We aged on lees reductively developing savory tones complimentary to the powerful fruit. After 20 months, we selected each puncheon for this reserve bottling. We then blended and filtered for purity and aging stability. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon the wine describes Cabernet at its most gorgeous and pure vintage expression. This rich wine will age for a decade or two, enjoyable with a host of foods throughout those seasons.CASES PRODUCED 576 6-pack cases/750mLTECHNICAL DATA Bottled: August 7, 2019 • Alcohol: 14.8% by volume • pH: 3.95 • TA: 6.0 • RS: 0.2%2022 Passing Time Chardonnay Columbia valleyPrice: $54.00 Your Price: $48.60(95 Points) "The 2022 ‘Columbia Valley’ by Passing Time comes from some pretty esteemed sites including Connor Lee and Celilo Vineyards.

The Wines of Bordeaux give tone to the stomach, while leaving the mouth fresh and the head clear. More than one invalid abandoned by the doctors has been seen to drink the good old wine of Bordeaux and return to health.--Comments by members of the Jury judging Bordeaux wines submitted under the new 1855 classification at the 1855 World's Fair in Paris, as noted in 1855: A History of the Bordeaux ClassificationNot much has changed in Bordeaux since the 1855 classification on the Left Bank of Bordeaux. If you got into this group of elite chateau you are like a made-man in the mob, your wines will sell every year without effort in great vintages and in off years they will still move in a short time as the reputation of these estates is not just among the local wine lovers of France, they have demand all over the world today.The wines of St. Emilion were classified in 1955 and today this is one of the only regions of Bordeaux where the chateau have the chance of moving up in terms of status as they can apply to have their status elevated by the AOC based on the last 10 vintages of their wine. This possibility does not exist anywhere else in Bordeaux except in St. Emilion.This is why you see so many great new wines coming out of this region and a lot of great old wines that have been rejuvenated and are now among the elite wines of Bordeaux and yesterday they were second class citizens. We have been following the wines from Chateau Quinault L’Eclose for a long time now and they have just gone from strength to strength since they were acquired by Bernard Arnault and Albert Freres the co-owners of Chateau Cheval Blanc. Their winemaking team have helped make the wines even better and we have an incredible offer on 10-15 year old wines direct from this great chateau.Vintage Saint Emilion Grand Cru from the same winemaking team as Cheval Blanc2012 Chateau Quinault L'Enclos Saint-Emilion Grand CruPrice: $48.00 Your Price: $43.20 Quantity in Stock: 59(92 Points) This vineyard is a small enclave of vines surrounded by the city of Libourne.

The palate is medium-bodied with slightly green tannins on the entry that are framed by fresh black fruit. There is fine tension and a sense of energy conveyed by the finish and it should age well. Time to raise my score. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. (NM) Review Date: 03/2018, VinousA bit about Chateau Quinault L’Enclose:Château Quinault L'Enclos is a tiny walled Château and vineyard within the city of Libourne in what was until 1973 the satellite appellation Sables Saint Émilion. The Château can be dated back to the 17th century and was bought by the negotiant Baptiste Mons in 1930. It is thought that the Château takes its name from a famous writer - Philippe Quinault (1635/1688), who was a very popular Parisian dramatist and librettist at that time.Quinault wrote the words for opera music composed by Jean-Baptiste Lully (known as librettos). During the reign of Louis XIV this team produced 11 operas, or tragédies lyriques en musique, as they were originally called. These spectacles comprised of a prologue and 5 acts and were enormously successful. They combined chorus, soloists, dancers, sumptuous decors, elaborate special effects, and rich costumes adorned with hundreds of ostrich plumes. You could say that Lully and Quinault were the Rogers and Hammerstein or the Andrew Lloyd Webber of their day.Part of Quinault's vineyard was lost to the cemetery of the church near by in the 1930s and the vineyard was reduced to a smaller size. The wines are known as a Vins de Garage as though the vineyard may be tiny the wine has achieved somewhat of a cult status. Upon learning that a German real estate company planned to buy the property and construct a housing development, Dr. Alain Raynaud and Françoise Raynaud acquired Château Quinault L'Enclos. Dr. Raynaud, a former physician and a one time president of the Union des Grands Crus is also owner of the Pomerol estates Château la Croix de Gay and La Fleur de Gay and supervises at Château Lascombes.The vineyard of Château Quinault L'Enclos covers 37 acres and the grapes planted are 65% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Malbec. The vines are 60 – 70 years old as most were planted between 1930 and 1948. The soil is mainly sandy gravel with traces of iron and the micro climate in the vineyard is warmer than its surroundings due to the walled enclosures, the proximity to the town and the River Dordogne. This allows earlier maturation of the grapes and protects them from frost. The vineyard also benefits from Fronsac’s hillock which rises near by which shelters the grapes. Unfortunately professor Raynaud’s ownership of this property came to a sudden end as he explained that even with great Parker scores, it is just too financially tough to keep a top estate going and to keep on improving the quality year on year. Rumor had it that he bought Quinualt with 100% mortgage, which is not going to make things any easier in bad years, or when there are small yields etc. He was later quoted as saying, 'the banks are right behind you when everything is going well, but when things get tough, it's goodbye good luck. He described the sale as a 'creve-coeur' (ie heartbreaking). He will continue to work with the new owners, as a consultant, and still owns two Pomerol properties, La Fleur du Gay and La Croix du Gay, with his sister.”Chateau Quinualt L'Enclos was been sold to Bernard Arnault and Albert Freres, co-owners of Chateaux Cheval Blanc, Yquem and La Tour du Pin. They purchased La Tour du Pin in 2006. If you are a bit disappointed for Dr. Alain and Francoise Raymaud, we agree it is a bit tragic for them as it was their passion and commitment that brought this estate into the limelight in a very short period of time, however we can still expect to see great things from this property as the new owners have proven with the properties that they currently own, they are all about quality. The Right BankThe Bordeaux region is one of the most important wine-producing regions in the world, it produces a third of the good quality wine French production. Bordeaux is 57 appellations, more than 9,000 wine-producing châteaux, and 13,000 wine growers. Bordeaux is near the Atlantic coast, in the south west of France. Wine has been grown in Bordeaux for two thousand years. Most probably vines grew there before the arrival of the Roman in 56 before J.C. The poet Ausonius wrote about it, a château still bare his name, the "Château Ausone". At the beginning of the second millennium the region was under English domination. Hundred of boats loaded with barrels of "Claret" left for England. The "Claret" was a light red wine Englishmen loved, the word is still used to refer to Red Bordeaux. The large diversity of Bordeaux suggests an equal diversity of soil. The climate is generally temperate with a short winter and a high degree of humidity generated by the proximity of the Atlantic Ocean. The celebrated regions of the right bank, Pomerol and St Emilion, have very little to do with the rest of Bordeaux. They lie well to the east of Bordeaux itself. Where the Médoc and Graves are characterized by gravelly soils, on the right bank the soil has more clay and limestone. Cabernet Sauvignon does not usually perform well here, and Merlot and Cabernet Franc are much more widely planted. A warmer drier climate than the maritime Médoc also benefits the region.The right bank was mostly excluded from the 1855 classification (the exceptions being the St Emilion first growths of Cheval Blanc and Ausone) and as a whole was not taken that seriously until the early 20th century. Today, due to the garagist movement- the recent development on the Right Bank has been the production of wines from newly created but tiny estates. A policy of very low yields, ageing in new oak barrels, and the rarity value of the wines, has created a somewhat absurd demand for such exceedingly expensive wines as Le Pin (Pomerol) and Valandraud (St Emilion). Their quality is excellent, but they offer poor value, except for wine drinkers who must have 'cult' wines in their cellars at all costs. This is a reflection of the quality of the best wines and of the sensuous properties of the Merlot grape, which gives rounder, more opulent wines than the austere Cabernet Sauvignon. The St Emilion wines have been classified, but Pomerol still has no classification, although the best wines are internationally recognized.Because the wine business has been so entrenched in their history and the entire economy of this region of France is based on what the English have coined the term “Claret”, they have a system of doing business like other wine producing region on the face of the earth. The best of the Bordeaulaise get paid for their product up to two years before it gets to the market. The top wines are sought out by collectors the world over years before they will come to rest in their cellars; and in some cases many years before they will actually be consumed. It is like the stock market, for wine junkies. Bordeaux Futures are a bet that the wine will be more valuable when it arrives than it was when it was actually purchased. 1960 Clos Fourtet Saint-Emilion Grand CruPrice: $350.00 Sale Price: $295.00 Quantity in Stock: 11967 Chateau Cheval Blanc Saint-Emilion (mid shoulder)Price: $475.00 Sale Price: $349.00 Quantity in Stock: 11981 CHATEAU FIGEAC, SAINT-EMILION GRAND CRU, FRANCEPrice: $400.00 Sale Price: $315.00 Quantity in Stock: 181982 Chateau Cheval Blanc St. Emilion, FrancePrice: $2400.00 Sale Price: $1795.00 Quantity in Stock: 81990 Chateau Figeac, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, FrancePrice: $495.00 Your Price: $445.50 Quantity in Stock: 41990 Chateau Cheval Blanc St. Emilion, FrancePrice: $2750.00 Sale Price: $2250.00 Quantity in Stock: 61995 Chateau de Valandraud Saint Emilion Grand CruPrice: $550.00 Your Price: $495.00 Quantity in Stock: 21999 Chateau Angelus Saint EmilionPrice: $495.00 Sale Price: $395.00 Quantity in Stock: 12000 Chateau Figeac Saint-Emilion Grand CruPrice: $540.00 Sale Price: $450.00 Quantity in Stock: 32000 Chateau Pavie Saint-Emilion Grand CruPrice: $675.00 Sale Price: $550.00 Quantity in Stock: 12000 Quinault L'enclos St. EmilionPrice: $105.00 Sale Price: $85.00 Quantity in Stock: 12000 Chateau Angelus St EmilionPrice: $950.00 Sale Price: $795.00 Quantity in Stock: 32001 Chateau Franc Mayne Saint Emilion Grand CruPrice: $87.00 Your Price: $78.30 Quantity in Stock: 82003 Chateau Cheval Blanc St. Emilion, FrancePrice: $1080.00 Your Price: $972.00 Quantity in Stock: 42004 Chateau Gracia Saint-Emilion Grand CruPrice: $142.00 Sale Price: $120.00 Quantity in Stock: 12005 Chateau Pavie Saint-Emilion Grand CruPrice: $577.00 Sale Price: $490.00 Quantity in Stock: 122005 Chateau Bellevue Mondotte Saint Emilion Grand CruPrice: $625.00 Sale Price: $495.00 Quantity in Stock: 12005 Chateau La Gaffeliere Saint-EmilionPrice: $235.00 Sale Price: $199.00 Quantity in Stock: 12005 Chateau Bellevue-Mondotte Saint-Emilion Grand Cru (375ml)Price: $230.00 Sale Price: $185.00 Quantity in Stock: 12005 Troplong Mondot St. EmilionPrice: $450.00 Sale Price: $350.00 Quantity in Stock: 12005 Chateau Cheval Blanc Saint-EmilionPrice: $1425.00 Sale Price: $1200.00 Quantity in Stock: 122005 Chateau Pavie St Emilion, FrancePrice: $695.00 Sale Price: $550.00 Quantity in Stock: 12005 Troplong Mondot St. Emilion (375ml)Price: $195.00 Sale Price: $145.00 Quantity in Stock: 12007 Chateau Vignot Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, FrancePrice: $53.75 Sale Price: $43.00 Quantity in Stock: 42009 Chateau Beau Sejour Becot St EmilionPrice: $225.00 Your Price: $202.50 Quantity in Stock: 52009 Chateau Figeac Saint-Emilion Grand CruPrice: $510.00 Sale Price: $425.00 Quantity in Stock: 12009 Chateau Cheval Blanc, St Emilion, FrancePrice: $1795.00 Your Price: $1615.50 Quantity in Stock: 32012 Chateau Cheval Blanc Saint-EmilionPrice: $750.00 Sale Price: $595.00 Quantity in Stock: 12012 Chateau Quinault L'Enclos Saint-EmilionPrice: $48.00 Your Price: $43.20 Quantity in Stock: 592012 Chateau Cheval Blanc, Saint-Emilion, FrancePrice: $987.00 Your Price: $888.30 Quantity in Stock: 32014 Chateau Cap Saint George Saint EmilionPrice: $33.00 Your Price: $29.70 Quantity in Stock: 12014 Chateau Quinault L'Enclos Saint-EmilionPrice: $68.00 Your Price: $61.20 Quantity in Stock: 602015 Fait Main Todeschini Asteria Vineyards Saint Emilion Grand CruPrice: $235.00 Your Price: $211.50 Quantity in Stock: 52016 Chateau Simard Saint-Emilion Grand CruPrice: $42.00 Your Price: $37.80 Quantity in Stock: 532016 Chateau La Dominique St. EmilionPrice: $90.00 Your Price: $81.00 Quantity in Stock: 122019 Chateau Beausejour J.Duffau-Lagarrosse Saint-Emilion Grand CruPrice: $162.00 Sale Price: $137.00 Quantity in Stock: 12019 Chateau Moulin Saint-Georges Saint-Emilion Grand CruPrice: $63.00 Sale Price: $53.00 Quantity in Stock: 52019 Chateau Fombrauge Saint Emilion Grand CruPrice: $52.00 Your Price: $46.80 Quantity in Stock: 102019 Chateau La Grave Figeac Grand Cru Saint Emilion, FrancePrice: $65.00 Sale Price: $49.00 Quantity in Stock: 42019 Chateau Tauzinat L'Hermitage St. Emilion Grand CruPrice: $37.50 Your Price: $33.75 Quantity in Stock: 22020 Chateau La Grave Figeac Grand Cru Saint Emilion, FrancePrice: $49.00 Your Price: $44.10 Quantity in Stock: 142020 Mondot by Chateau Mondot Saint Emilion Grand CruPrice: $67.50 Your Price: $60.75 Quantity in Stock: 42020 Chateau Lassegue Saint EmilionPrice: $75.00 Your Price: $67.50 Quantity in Stock: 32021 Chateau Fombrauge St Emilion Grand Cru ClassePrice: $45.00 Your Price: $40.50 Quantity in Stock: 4PomerolThe Pomerol vineyards are located on a plateau that rises and falls slightly as it slopes gently down through a series of terraces toward the valley of the Isle River, which flows into the Dordogne River. The appellation is bordered on the north by the Barbanne, a tributary of the Isle, on the east by Saint Emilion (the Cheval Blanc and Figeac wine estates), and on the south and west by the city of Libourne. Pomerol is an area only two and a half miles long and two miles wide with exceptionally favorable geology and unique wine-producing potential. It is one of the smallest of the Bordeaux wine areas and produces a yearly average of about 350,000 cases of wine. Most of the region's properties, with a few exceptions, are small; the 185 wine estates in Pomerol have an average of eight acres of grapes each. The area is mainly characterized by a unique set of geological conditions. The surface soil is gravel, more or less compact or sandy; and its subsoil contains ferrous oxide, locally known as "crasse de fer", which, together with its specific microclimate, gives Pomerol wines their distinctive personality.It is speculated that wine grapes have been grown there ever since the Romans inhabited Gaul. The development of the vineyards began in the 12th Century and continued throughout the Middle Ages. Pomerol was an important stopping place along the road of the pilgrims journeying from all over Europe to the Spanish pilgrimage of Saint Jacques de Compostelle. The Knights of Malta built a manor and a Roman church - since destroyed - as well as a hospital. The ancient hospital is the present Château Gazin building; it may be one of the last vestiges of the middle ages in Pomerol. Unfortunately, the troubles of the Hundred Years' War led to the abandonment of most of the vineyards. Subsequently restored, they again suffered greatly during the Religious Wars. Minutes in the archives of Libourne date the beginning of Pomerol's evolution toward its modern form to the middle of the 18th Century. It began in 1753 when Louis Leonard Fontemoing, a grape-grower in a locality called "Trop Chaud" ("Too Hot"), transformed his vineyard by taking out the white grapes and putting in red grapes. Besides the Pressac red, bouchet (or cabernet franc) and merlot made their first historically recorded appearance. They are the dominant varieties in Pomerol today.Some historians claim that the real ascendancy of Pomerol began in the second half of the 19th Century. However, modern tasters have reported on many great Pomerol vintages (dating back to the 1920's) from the region's pre-eminent estate, Château Pétrus. Nevertheless, pre-war vintages of Pomerol were not much in demand; and most winelovers of that era did not seek out Château Pétrus or any other of the notable Pomerol properties. It was not until the legendary 1947 vintage that Pétrus gained notoriety in wine circles. Although we have not tasted that particular vintage, those experienced tasters who have had the privilege of sampling the 1947 Pétrus at its zenith (it may still be at that level today) claim that the 1947 Pétrus is one of the greatest wines produced in the 20th Century. Despite the fame of the 1947 vintage, another generation of winedrinkers generally ignored the wines of Pomerol. We recall drinking exceptional Pomerols from vintages in the 1960's that commanded prices well below their counterparts in the Médoc (the area of Bordeaux where fabled estates such as Mouton, Lafite, Latour, and Margaux are located). However, beginning in the 1980's - specifically the 1982 vintage - Pomerol began to command average prices that exceeded those of most other Bordeaux wines. Today older vintages of Pétrus from the 1960's go for as much as $1000 to $10,000 a bottle!

If all be true that I do think,There are five reasons we should drink: Good wine - a friend - or being dry - Or lest we should be by and by - Or any other reason why. Henry Aldrich 1647 – 1710I can think of at least two reasons to drink wine every day as I’m on a very strict diet of two bottles a day! The wines that I love drinking the most usually come from very special places as I say wines are about a time, their vintage year and a place where the grapes come out of the ground. One of the most special places in the Napa Valley was planted in 1859 by Dr. George Belden Crane and his original vineyard is now owned by a few different people with Andy Beckstoffer, the most famous grower in Napa Valley owning 21 acres. The wines made from this fruit are some of the most coveted Cabernet Sauvignons from Napa Valley today. In my opinión this is one of the best sites in Napa Valley and almost always a contender for wine of the night whenever it is put in a tasting of Napa Valley no matter who the producers is.One of the smallest owners of this historic vineyard is a new winery called The Crane Assembly. The owners, Vail and Leslie Miller were in earlier this year to taste me on their new releases, and I was confused as to why they did not put the name Dr. Crane Vineyard on the label. They do allude to the fact that this is Dr. Crane fruit by their name the Crane Assembly, but why would you not put one of the most famous vineyards of Napa on your label if you could? So, when they said they had some older vintages and would be coming back to town in August, I thought it would be a great time to introduce these wines to our “Wine Drinking People”Join us as we welcome Vail and Leslie back to South Florida for a tasting of their Dr. Crane vineyard wines back to the 2013 vintage.

After four years in the Santa Clara Valley, he moved to the city of Napa and ultimately settled in St. Helena in 1859, where he purchased more than 300 acres.This was where Crane’s vision inched closer to reality. It was said that growing grapes of any kind in this region would be a ludicrous effort, however, Crane’s determination would soon tell otherwise.Nestled in the alluvial fan of the Mayacamas Mountains in southern St. Helena, this is where Crane first established vines in 1859, with the ambition to produce wines that could rival the best in the world. He began by introducing Napa Valley to Vitis vinifera, European grape varieties.While records are limited, the original plantings were most likely a field blend commonly referred to as “mixed blacks,” typically including Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Carignan, and smaller amounts of varieties such as Alicante Bouschet, Mourvèdre, and Valdiguié.Today, of the 6.5 acres under vine at the G.B. Crane Vineyard, 1.3 acres are planted to Cabernet Sauvignon, 0.9 acres to Petite Sirah, with two rows of Merlot and approximately four acres dedicated to the historic “mixed blacks,” including plantings dating to 1885, after phylloxera, and later additions from the 1930s.This four-acre block has been continuously farmed for more than 165 years by a succession of stewards. Today, we are proud to carry that responsibility forward.Vail Jr. and Leslie Miller divide their time between St. Helena, California, and Dayton, Ohio, guided by a shared love of family, legacy, and wine.Vail, a Dayton native and Miami University graduate, and Leslie, who grew up in High Point, North Carolina, and graduated from UNC Greensboro, met in Jackson, Wyoming, in the summer of 1992. Both come from families with deep entrepreneurial roots. Vail’s great-grandfather founded Heidelberg Distributing Company in 1938, and Leslie’s great-grandfather founded Harriss & Covington in 1920.That spirit of stewardship now continues with The Crane Assembly. Drawn to St. Helena for both its history and its personal significance, Vail and Leslie see this chapter as an opportunity to honor tradition, build with intention, and carry a meaningful legacy forward.Ryan Keith is the General Manager of The Crane Assembly Winery. Originally from Oregon, he moved to Napa Valley in 2002 and built his career through hospitality and estate-driven wineries, developing a deep respect for vineyards, old vines, and wines of purpose.Since joining The Crane Assembly in 2016 as its first employee, Ryan has helped shape its next chapter with a strong commitment to the vineyard’s history, the integrity of the wines, and the legacy they carry forward.Atelier Melka brings deep Napa Valley pedigree and a forward-looking perspective to The Crane Assembly. With Philippe Melka and Maayan Koschitzky guiding the wines, the estate moves into its next chapter with a team known for shaping some of the valley’s most respected Cabernet Sauvignons.Together, they bring a thoughtful balance of experience, precision, and vision. Their approach is rooted in a deep respect for great vineyard sites and a belief that exceptional wines should reflect both place and purpose. At The Crane Assembly, that means honoring the history of this storied St. Helena vineyard while helping define its future with clarity, restraint, and intention.Philippe and Maayan are not simply carrying a legacy forward. They are helping refine and elevate it for the next generation.All the wines from The Crane Assembly in the store on SALE!!2024 The Crane Assembly Disciples Sauvignon Blanc NapaPrice: $58.50 Your Price: $52.65Pale straw in the glass, like a hint of morning sunshine. Bright aromatics of citrus blossom, white peach, and crushed stone lead into notes of spearmint, fresh grass, and tropical fruit. The palate is vibrant and textured, with lemon curd, key lime, and tangerine layered over ripe stone fruit. A touch of sweetness and subtle French oak add depth, finishing long and juicy with a savory edge and a hint of mint. A vivid expression of Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc - refined, refreshing, and food-friendly.Production : 7 BarrelsBlend Composition : 100% Sauvignon Blanc2024 The Crane Assembly Disciples Pinot Noir Bell Summe Vineyard Sonoma CoastPrice: $69.00 Your Price: $62.10Sourced from the steep, organically farmed slopes of Bell Summe Vineyard in the Sonoma Coast, our 2024 Disciples Pinot Noir was harvested in the early morning hours of August 29, 2024, and crafted in an Old World style. Three clones of Pinot Noir were natively fermented following a four-day cold soak in open-top fermenters, with 20% whole cluster inclusion. The wine was aged for 15 months in French oak barrels from multiple forests (45% new) and bottled unfined and unfiltered on January 27, 2026. It balances structure, lift, and aromatic complexity, finishing with refinement and quiet confidence.Blend Composition: 100% Pinot NoirProduction: 9 BarrelsWinemaker Notes: The 2024 Disciples Pinot Noir from the Sonoma Coast AVA opens with aromas of ripe cherry, subtle cola, dried herbs, and a delicate floral lift. Medium-bodied, the palate shows vibrant acidity and a seamless texture, with layers of red cherry and raspberry framed by savory undertones and gentle spice. Fine, integrated tannins carry through a long, balanced, and elegant finish.2022 G.B. Crane Vineyard el Coco Red Blend NapaPrice: $96.00 Your Price: $86.40Coco is where fine art, old-world influence, and bold winemaking meet. Inspired by a work from Francisco Goya.This wine has always stood apart for its richness of mood and expression. As part of The Crane Assembly, El Coco is being reimagined with fresh purpose, bringing its dramatic origins into a more elevated story shaped by craftsmanship, pedigree, and a singular sense of place.The 2022 G.B. Crane Vineyard el Coco opens with aromatics of violets, dark chocolate, and plum, followed by secondary aromas of blue stone fruits, fresh raspberries, and black tea. It exhibits a rich, plush mouthfeel that coats the palate in a succulent, mouthwatering fashion, with flavors of anise, black cherry, and ripe raspberry. The finish is marked by mineral and slate-like notes, along with a lingering, solid grip.2021 The Crane Assembly GB Crane Vineyard Disciples Napa ValleyPrice: $63.00 Your Price: $56.70The 2021 Disciples appears opaque with a black-purple core and a fuchsia rim alongside its slow pace in the glass. Opening aromatics abound with briar fruit, black plum, blue fruits, redwood bark and charred meats—one could spend all day in there. The palate is selfish, refusing to be anything but itself, characterized by notes of black fruits, tarragon, roast lamb, mint and sarsaparilla. Rich yet welcoming with a persistent thread of minerality throughout, the grippy tannins aren’t abrasive but appreciated as structure, giving way to the soft, slow fade.Blend: 34% Petite Sirah, 30% Zinfandel, 26% Syrah,10% Grenache2022 The Crane Assembly Disciples Cabernet Sauvignon NapaPrice: $112.50 Your Price: $101.25Winemaker Notes: Dark purple in color with beautiful clarity. Fresh aromatics of blackberry and raspberry carry a mineral edge, complemented by hints of red licorice, cinnamon, and a touch of mint. On the palate, the wine is dense and structured with good grip. Flavors of fresh blackberry and black licorice unfold alongside notes of pencil shavings, graphite, and subtle fennel. The purity of fruit is evident, balanced by firm, mouth-coating tannins. The finish is long and persistent, expanding in the back of the mouth with a mouthwatering salinity that is both savory and succulent—evoking the natural freshness of ripe fruit... A nice lift of fresh acidity gives the wine aromatic energy that carries through the end.Blend Composition: 97% Cabernet Sauvignon | 2% Petite Sirah | 1% MerlotProduction: 12 Barrels2013 The Crane Assembly GB Crane Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon St HelenaPrice: $450.00 Your Price: $405.00(98 Points) The 2013 G. B. Crane Cabernet Sauvignon Composition is a blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petite Sirah and 2% Merlot. This is a big boy at 15.3% natural alcohol. Nevertheless, there’s no heat to it. It is a seamless classic from Napa, with copious quantities of blackberry and blackcurrant, some Asian spice and a full-bodied, nearly massive entry on the palate, with oodles of fruit, glycerin and extract. Tannins are present, but soft and well-integrated. This is a big, juicy, compelling effort from Dave Phinney that should drink well for 30 or more years. The winemaker behind these magnificent wines is Dave Phinney, working from the Dr. George Beldon Crane Vineyard, which was first planted as a site in 1885. At that time it was largely a blend of grapes often referred to as "mixed blacks." There are now eight acres in production, four containing the original plantings and the rest planted from 1930 onward. Phinney and a group of his friends purchased the vineyard in 2012. These notes reflect what they’re doing to date and serious consumers should be thrilled. (RP) Wine Advocate. Review Date: 10/20162016 The Crane Assembly GB Crane Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon St HelenaPrice: $325.00 Your Price: $292.50Sourced from a historic eight-acre vineyard, four of which are believed to be planted by George Beldon Crane in 1885, this release is composed of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon and 16% Petite Sirah. Only ten barrels were produced.2019 The Crane Assembly GB Crane Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon St Helena, USAPrice: $295.00 Your Price: $265.50(95 Points) A big, bold wine from the estate vineyard in southern St. Helena, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon G.B. Crane Vineyard weighs in at 15.7% alcohol on the label, but it carries it well. Yes, it's super ripe in its black cherries and dark chocolate notes, its considerable weight and richness and its supple, melted tannins, but any heat is subsumed under the wine's substance. No, it won't be for classicists, but it is a hedonist's delight. I suggest drinking it on the young side, while the fruit still carries the day. (JC) Wine Advocate Review Date: 07/2024In 2019, the G.B. Crane Vineyard experienced a wet winter and spring followed by above average temperatures throughout the summer without any major heat spikes. As a result, our vines struggled just the right amount to produce berries of immense concentration. We harvested our Cabernet Sauvignon two weeks earlier than in 2018, in the early mornings of October 9th and 14th. Upon receiving the grapes in the winery, we implemented a four-day cold soak followed by a long, cool fermentation, for a total of 23 days on skins. Aged 20 months in French Oak, 60% new, we bottled the 123 cases in August 2021, allowing for a few years in bottle before its release.Production 5 BarrelsBlend Composition: 92% Cabernet Sauvignon | 4% Merlot | 4% Petite SirahTasting Notes: The 2019 G.B. Crane Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon pours a deep garnet core with a vivacious ruby red rim. Immediate aromatics of cassis, pluot, black cherry, garrigue and sweet oak come from the glass. Layered notes of raspberry, dark chocolate and blackberry are wrapped within a silky smooth and elegant body with intensity and energy. The consistent tension of acidity keeps the palate balanced with ripe tannins and lengthy closing notes of black licorice and fennel. Kevin A. Fox - Winemaker2022 The Crane Assembly GB Crane Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon St HelenaPrice: $262.50 Your Price: $236.25The 2022 growing season in St. Helena began with a dry winter and mild spring, leading to an early, even budbreak and a steady progression through summer. Warm, consistent conditions supported balanced vine growth and gradual fruit maturation, building concentration while preserving freshness. A brief early September heat event was followed by a return to moderate weather, allowing the vines to regain balance heading into harvest. We harvested the Cabernet Sauvignon in the early morning of September 17th. The wine was aged for 20 months in French oak (85% new) and bottled in August 2024, with a total production of 148 casesProduction : 6 BarrelsBlend Composition: 94% Cabernet Sauvignon | 3% Merlot | 3% Petite SIrahTasting Notes: The 2022 G.B. Crane Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon presents a medium-dark purple core. Bright and expressive, the aromatics open with dark currant, fresh blackberry, and raspberry, layered with black licorice and a touch of toasty oak. With time in the glass, added complexity emerges—plum, lavender, black tea, tilled earth, and cigar box—showcasing both youthful energy and depth. Incredibly textural and mouthcoating, the palate is defined by integrated tannins that glide seamlessly, carrying flavors of blue and black fruits, gravelly earth, fennel, forest floor, and sweet tobacco. A vibrant freshness keeps the wine light on its feet, leading to a long, lingering finish marked by subtle salinity, violet lift, and a dusty, tart-edged brightness.Other wines made from DR.

The full-bodied palate delivers a firm, fine-grained texture and seamless freshness supporting the taut, muscular black fruits, finishing with a firework display of mineral, floral and chocolaty notes.

Wine Advocate2018 Alejandro Bulgheroni 'Lithology' Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard Napa ValleyPrice: $380.00 Sale Price: $310.00 Quantity in Stock: 1(98 Points) Very deep purple-black in color, the 2018 Lithology Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard charges out of the gate with intense scents of chocolate-covered cherries, blueberry compote and crème de cassis, leading to nuances of star anise, mocha, black olives and iron ore. The decadently rich, full-bodied palate packs an impressive punch, delivering impactful black and blue fruit preserves with loads of mineral and exotic spice layers, supported by fine-grained tannins and just enough freshness, finishing with epic length. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate2011 Realm Cellars Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Cabernet Sauvignon Napa MAGNUMPrice: $1200.00 Sale Price: $999.00 Quantity in Stock: 3(91 Points) All things considered, the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard has aged well.

"I was in love with a beautiful blonde once. She drove me to drink; that's the one thing I'm indebted to her for." W. C. Fields in Never Give a Sucker an Even BreakI have been touting the quality of a freshly opened wheel of Parmesan Reggiano ever since we opened the wine bar when we cracked the first wheel open. The experience is unlike any other with this cheese as soon as you open the wheel the cheese starts to oxidize and harden so the freshly opened wheel is so buttery and creamy it is unlike any Parmesan you have ever tasted. We will be offering freshly cut 24-month aged Parmesan Reggiano for $29 per pound this evening and you know that the wheel was just cut today! If you make it to the tasting, you also get to sample the goods before you buy! Of course, we will be offering six wines to complement the cheese, and we will be serving a special menu prepared with the freshly cut cheese as well.There are only 36 spaces available for this event and the fee for this tasting is $95 + tax, for reservations call 954-523-9463 or e-mail andy@winewatch.com. You can place an order on-line or over the phone and have your cheese delivered locally with your wine order, but we will only be delivering to the tri county area on the days we are out delivering wine. 24 Month Aged Parmesan Reggiano Wheel Cutting Cheese SaleTuesday, August 18th 6:00pm1lb 24 Month Aged Parmesan ReggianoPrice: $29.00Of course, we will be serving a few wines to accompany the cheese!2019 Chateau Marjosse Anthologie de Marjosse Cuvee Palombe Blanc BordeauxPrice: $36.00 Your Price: $28.80(89+ Points) The 2019 Cuvée Palombe offers up a complex, delicately oaky bouquet with aromas of ripe pear, fresh herbs, lemon oil, honeycomb and a touch of exotic fruits, followed by a medium to full-bodied, round and broad palate with a long, penetrating finish. There is no reason to wait. This is a blend of one-third Sauvignon Blanc, one-third Sauvignon Gris and one-third Sémillon derived from 40- to 75-year-old grapes planted on clay-limestone soils.

Layered and complex, it evolves as it opens to a lingering tease of butterscotch topped in nutmeg. It is an outstanding vision of an outstanding site, a wine for the ages. — Virginie Boone Issue Date 6-1-2017 Wine Enthusiast2022 Isole E Olena Chianti Classico DOCG TuscanyPrice: $36.00 Your Price: $32.40(93 Points) One of Chianti Classico’s most illustrious properties, Isole e Olena was established in 1956. After more than 45 years at the helm, Paolo de Marchi sold the estate last year to luxury company EPI, which also acquired Biondi Santi in 2016. This 2020 takes some time to reveal its tempting fragrance. Wafting flint, cardamom and pepper make way for early spring blossoms and red berries. It has a graceful flow along with a sumptuousness and succulence of raspberry and red plum. Fine powdery tannins frame it. A juicy follow up to the excellent 2019. Decanter2020 Marqués de Griñón, Dominio de Valdepusa CalizaPrice: $25.00 Sale Price: $19.00A blend of Syrah, Petit Verdot and Graciano. This light and playful wine has pretty floral notes along with wild berries, peppermint and caramel highlights. The name refers to the soils that are unique and what make this property unique in that they are one of the only wineries in the world that has its own appellation.Nose: Attractive and intensely fruity aroma of ripe black cherries and wild berries, with fine mineral tones, peppermint and caramel notes.Palate: Strong, very good body, round and fresh with a silky structure and a delicate, long-lasting finish2018 Chateau Ste. Michelle Canoe Ridge Estate Limited Release Red Blend Horse Heaven HillsPrice: $55.00 Sale Price: $25.00 Only 397 cases of this Horse Heaven Hills blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Malbec and 10% Syrah from the famous Canoe Ridge Vineyard was produced by winemaker Brian Mackey. A deep and intense bouquet of currant, dark cherry and blackberry fruit on the nose with a full complement of cedar, graphite and dark mocha nuance more and more coming out as the wine opens up. Big and chewy on the tongue with an abundance of rich ripe fruit, a good amount of ripe tannins and a long layered finish echoing all that nuance from the nose through the finish. Wow, a blockbuster and this wine will only get better with 3-5 years in the cellar. Most Excellent2017 Reynvaan Syrah The ContenderPrice: $90.00 Your Price: $72.00(94 points) Bright ruby-red. Reticent aromas of dark raspberry and prosciutto are lifted by topnotes of nectarine and flowers (from the Viognier component?). Thick and concentrated but also juicy on the palate, offering terrific intensity and a touch of sweetness to its flavors of red and black fruits and minerals. Most impressive today on the savory, building finish, which features suave tannins and palate-staining persistence. (this was aged in about 30% new oak, including a puncheon) Tim Fish, Wine Spectator (Aug 2020)2020 Bodegas Teso La Monja Romanico ToroPrice: $22.50 Your Price: $18.00(92 Points) The entry-level red 2020 Románico was produced with Tinta de Toro grapes from younger vines (10 to 35 years old, most of them grafted because it's forbidden to plant ungrafted...) in the villages of Valdefinjas and Toro. It fermented in a traditional way, foot trodden and with soft pump-overs, with indigenous yeasts selected from their own vineyards and matured in used French oak barrels for six months but not for 100% of the volume, as they keep part of the wine unoaked and in stainless steel.

The feeding of cattle complies with the norms of a strict specification that bans the use of silage, fermented feeds and animal flour.The milk from the morning and the previous evening is poured into the traditional upturned bell-shaped copper vats. It takes about 550 litres of milk to produce each wheel of Parmigiano Reggiano. The milk slowly and naturally coagulates with the addition of rennet and a whey starter, rich in starter cultures, from the previous day’s processing.The curd which forms is then broken down by the master cheese-maker into minuscule granules using a traditional tool called “spino”.This is where fire comes into the picture, in a cooking process which reaches 55 degrees centigrade, after which the cheesy granules sink to the bottom of the cauldron forming a single mass.After about fifty minutes the cheese-maker removes the cheese mass which will give rise to two twin wheels.Cut into two parts and wrapped in the typical linen cloth, the cheese is then placed in a mould which will give it its final shape.A casein plate with a unique and sequential alphanumeric code is applied to each wheel: it is its identity card which makes it possible to trace its entire production back to its origins, anytime and anywhere.After a few hours, a special marking band engraves the month and year of production onto the cheese, as well as its cheese factory registration number and the unmistakable dotted inscriptions around the complete circumference of the cheese wheel.After a few days, the wheels are immersed in a saturated solution of water and salt: it is a process of salting by osmosis. This last passage closes the production cycle of Parmigiano Reggiano and starts its maturation period.The story of Parmigiano-Reggiano is a long one, and also a slow one, following the natural rhythm of the seasons.In fact, the minimum maturation time is 12 months, the longest among all the PDO cheeses, and only at this point can it be decided if each individual wheel is worthy of the name it was given at its birth, and therefore continue the maturation up to 24, 36, 40 months and more.After 12 months, the Consortium experts carry out a test called “quality inspection” on all the wheels: each wheel is tapped with a hammer and the trained ear of the quality inspector recognises any defects inside the cheese that may compromise quality.The conforming wheels are marked with the hot-iron brand thus becoming Parmigiano Reggiano. All identifying marks and signs are removed from any wheels which do not meet the PDO requirements.The quality control identifies three cheese categories:“first-grade” Parmigiano Reggiano: the cheese that fully complies with the production specifications. It is marked with the hot-iron brand.“medium-grade” Parmigiano Reggiano: the cheese that shows minor or moderate defects in the structure of its paste and/or on the rind, yet that do not alter the typical organoleptic characteristics of the product. These wheels are marked with the hot-iron brand, but they can be recognised through the parallel grooves engraved all around the cheese rind.“de-rinded” cheese: the cheese that shows major defects is downgraded by eliminating the marks of origin through the removal of the rind (a few millimetres). Therefore, this cheese cannot be called Parmigiano Reggiano and refer to the PDO in any way.Starting from the 18th month of maturation, dairies may request the Consortium to affix an additional mark on first-grade Parmigiano Reggiano:PREMIUM or EXPORT mark: it gives trading companies and consumers a further indication of the quality of Parmigiano Reggiano.These marks can be affixed also on the packaging of the cheese selected in this way.

"Good wine needs no bush." (from: As you like It) William Shakespear 1564-1616 English Dramatist & PoetAnd those of you that know me understand why we are having another vintage Piedmont wine. Nebbiolo is my favorite grape varietal and Barolo and Barbaresco are 100% Nebbiolo!Barbaresco and Barolo are two of the world’s most age worthy wines, but there are very little of these older vintage wines available on the open market today. I like to compare these Italian treasures to the great wines of Burgundy, another region that deals with harsh conditions and a varietal that is very finicky. Nebbiolo like Pinot Noir only produces great wines in a few areas of the world. These old wines are in excellent condition and to have this many 30+ year old wines for $350… did I mention this includes dinner? How can we afford to do this??

Please let us know when you make your reservations if you have any food allergies or aversions and chefs Toni and Dani will be happy to accommodate you.A brief History of BaroloBarolo has a long history of wine production, the area was named some 400 years ago and probably came from the Celtic brolio or brol, meaning "wood" or "orchard". The region of Barolo encompasses approximately 3,000 acres of vines situated southwest of the town of Alba, in all or part of 11 communes. First is La Morra, with nearly one-third of the total acreage. Following in decreasing order are Serralunga d’alba, Monforte d’Alba, Barolo, and Castiglione Falletto, and parts of six other villages. One of the most famous and most sought after vineyards in Barolo is Cannubi. There are two main valleys in the Barolo production zone: the Barolo Valley to the west, and the Serralunga Valley to the east. La Morra and Barolo itself are the major villages in the western valley, which also encompasses Cherasco, Novello, Roddi d’Alba, Castiglione Falletto and Monforte are the major towns; Diano d’Alba and Grinzane Cavour are also included in this district. There are distinct characteristics that are indigenous to the wines of various area: the wines of Serralunga Valley have suggestions of licorice and tar, the Barolos of Serralunga itself display camphor and mint; those from Castiglione Falleto have a pronounced licorice characteristic as well as nuances of spice, mint, dried peaches, and prunes; those from Monforte recall spices, mint hazelnuts, and almonds. The wines from the Barolo Valley bring up underbrush and truffle, as well as licorice. Those wines from the village of Barolo have less of a licorice character but more suggestions of underbrush, truffles, and mint. The wines of la Morra, especially those from the slopes, combine nuances of white truffle, mint, tobacco, spices, cherries, and blackberries and those from Cannubi display motes of white truffles, underbrush, raspberries, and black cherries. 2021 E.

Made from 100% Nebbiolo, Barbaresco, like its Barolo counterpart, is a highly tannic and acidic wine that needs years of cellaring to reach harmony. Prior to being released in the market, DOCG regulations require that the wines are aged for a minimum of 26 months, with at least 9 months spent in wood barrels; for the riserva bottlings, there is a mandated period of 50 months aging, with at least 9 months spent in wood barrels. Although Barbaresco and Barolo have much in common, traditionally Barbaresco tends to express a more feminine side, while Barolo is characterized as masculine and stately—but certainly exceptions exist. Expressive aromatically, scents of dried cherry, raspberry, licorice and rose petals are typical of the wine.2022 La Ca'Nova Barbaresco D.O.C.G.

"Reality is an illusion that occurs due to a lack of wine." - AnonymousWe do not have any lack of wine here at Wine Watch, we host wine tastings on every week on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights! I’m not opposed to drinking on any night as we are now open in the wine bar for wine club members Monday through Saturday night with a new menu every week!The Wine Watch hosts more wine tastings than any wine store on Earth! I still remember the first tasting we hosted at the old store, it was with our good friend Vincenzo Abruzese from Valdicava. So, when we received a cellar that had several old vintages of Valdicava’s top wine, the single vineyard riserva Madonna Del Piano, I said it’s time to do some scientific work with one of Montalcino’s greatest wines!! This is one of the only producers to get a (100 Point) score in the Wine Spectator for their Brunello di Montalcino. And when the 2001 Madonna del Piano was released I set aside a whole case to see how it would be in a few decades. It is now 20 years since the release, and we are busting out this bottle of 2001 Madonna Del Piano Riserva Brunello di Montalcino from my personal stash for this tasting. You know my motto – “Always drink the good stuff first”!Join us as we experience 9 different Riserva Brunello Di Montalcino from this legendary producer along with a special meal to accompany the tasting wines. The fee for this tasting which includes dinner and gratuity is $375 + tax, for reservations call 954-523-9463 or e-mail andy@winewatch.com.Valdicava Madonna del Piano Brunello Di Montalcino Vertical TastingFriday, August 14th7:30 PMReception2024 Valdicava Rosso Di Montalcino1997 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino Madonna del Piano2001 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino Madonna del Piano2003 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino Madonna del Piano2004 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino Madonna del Piano2007 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino Madonna del Piano2009 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino Madonna del Piano2012 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino Madonna del Piano2013 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino Madonna del Piano2016 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino Madonna del PianoMenuSelection of Cheese and CharcuterieItalian Wedding Soup with Turkey Meat BallsBeet and Goat Cheese SaladFettuccini Bolognese and fresh shaved ParmesanDark Chocolate Dipped Hazelnut Biscotti with Limoncello Whipped CrèmeThe price for this event which includes dinner is $375 + tax.

To the left is the La Casa vineyard of Caparzo and to the right is Val Di Suga and the small hill in the middle of his property is the oldest vines planted on the property (1970) “Madonna del Piano”. The Valdicava estate was one of the original members of the Brunello consortium, formed in 1967. Like everyone else in the region the Abrusezzi family was trying to emulate the wines of Biondi Santi. The early years were tough as the producers were feeling their way through production problems and many did not have the facility to produce outstanding wines. The 1970’s saw a huge investment of newcomers in Montalcino. The Cinzano vermouth firm, with Coco-Cola money behind it, headed a group that purchased Col d’Orcia, an estate that has produced wine for years. Marchesi de Frescobaldi was involved with a group known as Enoviticola Senese, which had French, German, and Spanish investors as well. Their estate, Castelgiocondo, brought out its first bottles in 1980, not all Brunello. The most talked about outsider was the house of Banfi, the largest US importer of Italian wines, which had prepared some 1,000 acres of vines (only 125 of them in Montalcino) at a place called Poggio d’Oro, or “The golden Hill”. With all this new activity the old timers like Valdicava were forced to continually improve their wines to keep up with the foreign talent. Valdicava has been experimenting with rootstock and different clones of Sangiovese Grosso on their estate for the last thirty years and today they seem to have the winning combination.Valdicava was one of the rising stars of the Brunello district in the 1990’s and today is considered one of the benchmark producers of this region. The wines of this estate are the handy work of Vincenzo Abrusezzi. Vincenzo is a perfectionist. He will settle for nothing short of excellence and it shows in his work. He has seen the big companies come in and make a huge impact in terms of recognition of his regions wines but loves the things about this region that make it unique.This estate has been dedicated to quality from the very start with an ongoing experimentation of rootstock and clone selection refining every vintage of this wine. The oldest vines on the property were planted in 1970 and the youngest in 2001. Vincenzo Abrusezzi is one of the leaders in terms of progressive thinking and cutting edge viticulture in Montalcino today. He has a no chemical/back to nature approach to viticulture at Valdicava and believes that the health of the vineyard is most important and that chemicals harm the long term the health of the soils. They are a short-term/easy fix to a specific problem and can cause even bigger problems in the long run.The vineyard is planted 3,000 vines per acre and the soil is a mixture of clay, sand, Galestro and this combination of different soil types, four different rootstocks and four different clones of Sangiovese make Valdicava one of the most unique wines made in Brunello. Valdicava did years of research to find out which rootstock/clone combination did the best in each particular soil type and the new releases from this winery soundly prove that this is one of the top producers in Brunello Di Montalcino today. The winery produces on average 2,000 cases of Rosso di Montalcino, 2,000 cases of Brunello di Montalcino and 500 cases of the Riserva Brunello di Montalcino labeled “Madonna del Piano”. Due to the limited production of these wines they can be very hard to find, especially when wine writers like Robert Parker Jr. giving praise to the effect of: "The 1995 Madonna Del piano is a candidate for wine of the vintage." And even more impressive stating that: “Vincenzo Abruzzesi is Montalcino’s number one over-achiever with winner after winner since 1988. The secret – a willingness, indeed eagerness, to spend whatever it takes for quality in addition to utilizing several of Italy’s outstanding consultants, winemaker Attilio Pagli and agronomist Andrea Paoletti (the former Antinori vineyard manager). Pagli is unfortunately little known to the larger public, but no oenologist in Italy has made so many excellent wines since the mid-1980’s.”All the wines from Valdicava that we have in the store on SALE!:2024 Valdicava Rosso Di MontalcinoPrice: $52.50 Your Price: $47.25Wine Watch Review: This wine is always an excellent preview of the newest vintage from Tuscany with the 2024 showing an abundance of fruit red plum and red licorice spice with sweet herbs and fresh porcini mushroom nuances. Bright and fruity on the tongue with a lovely silky character to the tannins already and a host of spices and tongue tingly minerality through the finish, highlights of balsamic, eucalyptus, tea leaves and violets as the wine opens up. Always very charming upon release but this wine has the balance and freshness to last for 3-5 years easily in the cellar. The tannins are soft and well integrated and upon the first sip there may be a bit of austerity but as the wine opens up it becomes more refined with a silky and elegant finish, very approachable and ready to drink.

It’s surprisingly cool-toned and sleek with tart red berry fruits and a stern core of minerality. With exceptional length and freshness, the 2020 blends rounded tannins with hints of tangerine and raspberry. The 2020 is unlike any Riserva Madonna del Piano I’ve ever encountered; despite its underlying power, its energy and vibrancy are truly impressive. This stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the 2016 and 2019 vintages, which was no easy feat given the challenges of the 2020 season.

"If all be true that I do think, There are five reasons we should drink: Good wine a friend or being dry or lest we should be by and by or any other reason why."- Henry AldrichWe have a lot of good reasons to drink at the Wine Watch: like days that end in “Y” Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights! We don’t take Sunday off… that is Margherita night at the Lampasone house!!!I have been to California wine country dozens of times over the last 30 years so it may be hard for some to believe that it took me until last year to visit Javis Estate. This winery is celebrating its 31st vintage this year and the visionary behind this amazing winery William Jarvis almost made it to his 100th birthday! He passed away at 99 last year and he drank wine every day!! Given all the people we have sent to Jarvis over the years based on the winery’s reputation, I can’t believe that it took me this long to visit one of the most impressive wineries in the world. The buzz about this property while it was being built was all over the wine news. The story of the massive caves and how big the property was compared to how few acres of vineyards were being planted on the property was big news at the time as most of the property is dedicated to nature preserve. Jarvis is a truly unique estate and one that needs to be seen to be believed. The caves are truly spectacular and are so large, 45,000 square feet! It is large enough to house the entire winemaking facility, as well as the barrel aging and also has some unique spaces to host events. The property is truly amazing and the experience they offer really captures the imagination and the vision the Jarvis family had of building a world-class wine estate in Napa Valley. We invite you to experience the wines of Jarvis Estate with our new friend, the VP of Sales Sil Coccia whom we met on our visit last year. After the incredible experience we had of course we offered to host an event with him at the wine bar the next time he was in South Florida. I did not think that it would be a few weeks after our visit but why not… the only prerequisites to hosting an event at the wine bar for me is the quality of the wines and everything that they poured for us during our visit to the winery was most excellent. I just heard from our good friend Sil and this is last minute but for any of our wine drinking people that are thirsty tomorrow afternoon we will have some Jarvis Estate wines available to taste from 4-6pm. Join us as we welcome Sil back to South Florida for a pop-up happy hour wine tasting of Jarvis Estate wines along from 4-6PM Thursday July 30th. The fee for this tasting is $95 + tax, for reservations call 954-523-9463 or e-mail andy@winewatch.com. This tasting is FREE for Wine Watch Wine Club Members! You do not need to make a reservation if you are a Wine Club Member, you can just stop by anytime between 4-6pm to meet Sil and taste the wines.

It wasn't until the Navy took him to California that he enjoyed wine for the first time, and he probably appreciated it more at that time than those who grew up with wine.After attending Annapolis and serving in the Navy, William continued his studies in both technical and liberal arts for eight more years at the University of California Berkeley, Stanford, and various French universities. Turning to business, he headed his own telecommunications company in Silicon Valley.Leticia Jarvis was born in Puebla, Mexico where she finished her college degree and met William.After their marriage, William and Leticia traveled and studied abroad, finally adopting France as a part-time residence. For many years, they maintained a Louis XIV Chateau in the Vesle Valley near Reims in Northern France. The two spent time at French universities concentrating in their shared interest, French literature. William and Leticia also enjoyed the many wines found in the different regions they visited, eventually gravitating to the fine Bordeaux reds and Montrachet whites.Not to neglect Leticia's Spanish culture, Leticia, William and their young son William, spent summer months in Spain. There they studied Spanish literature at Salamanca, the oldest university in Spain, and also came to appreciate Spanish wines and Zarzuela (Spanish Opera).The two eventually acquired a weekend estate in Napa and slowly immersed themselves in the culture of winemaking. They first spent time studying how to best plant a vineyard. Next came a careful 10 years nurturing the vineyard and finally the winery itself. Built underground to provide the desired cool, humid conditions, the winery utilizes a combination of rotary fermenters and classic oak cuves from Cognac to help create the Jarvis Estate signature style of wines.Another important activity is a music conservatory the Jarvis' founded in the Napa Valley. Housed in a 100-year-old stone winery building, the Conservatory conducts master classes in the various arts that comprise operas. Their annual opera workshops culminated in area-wide “Festivals of the Zarzuela” bringing Spanish opera to the United States. A Baroque Dance Workshop followed. Leticia is now bringing new art film presentations to Napa including current European opera productions via the internet and presented in High-Definition. Other activities of the Jarvis Conservatory include workshops and performance for the annual Puppet Festival, as well as the Napa Valley Youth Symphony.Both Jarvis Estate and the Jarvis Conservatory draw upon a lifetime of education and are part of the Jarvis’ celebration of their lives passions.All Jarvis wines are produced from estate vineyards, located high above the city of Napa, in the beautifully rugged mountains between Mt. George and Milliken Canyon at the southeastern end of the Napa Valley. The vineyards are planted in gently sloping meadows one thousand feet above the valley floor. As the cool maritime air passes over the Carneros flats and begins flowing into the valley, it falls about seven degrees in temperature for the thousand feet of vertical rise. As such, our vineyards tend to be cooler by several degrees than the famous Carneros region! These cooler temperatures allow a long “hang time,” which permits a long, slow fruit maturation for maximum flavor and concentration at harvest.The Jarvis Estate winemaking facility is entirely contained within 45,000 square feet of cave tunneled into the scenic Vaca Mountains, four miles east of downtown Napa. It is not only a visual masterpiece, but a technical masterpiece as well.Due to the invariant temperature and high humidity level of caves, wineries have typically used caves for the barrel aging of wines. Jarvis Estate was the first in this country to tunnel a cave so large that it could hold the entire winemaking operation. With the help of chief geotechnic consultant Gregg Korbin and the largest computer at University of California Berkeley, William Jarvis was able to successfully plan and design the large chambers of our underground winery. As the cave extends further into the mountain, the chambers become larger. Pushing the state of the art, the last chamber could comfortably contain two full basketball courts. These chambers allow even the large fermentation tanks to be underground and out of sight, thus preserving the unmarred beauty of the natural outside environment.The underlying principle behind the Jarvis Estate cave construction is that a parabolic shaped tunnel is inherently stable. As such, the cave tunnels and chambers are in the shape of a true parabola. Throughout the cave you will find many references to its parabolic structure. With the help of Jim Gangwer and other artisans, the cast bronze doors, brass wall sconces, arched alcoves and fiber optic chandeliers add to the mystique and beauty of the cave.“English mining machines, which happened to be very good at turning corners, were used to generate the very useful circular pattern of the winery. This circular design allows for a very efficient operation, and allows the winemaker and his lab to be no more than a few hundred feet from the farthest aging galleries” –William Jarvis.Capitalizing on the natural underground water source, the stream and waterfall running through the center of the winery function to maintain the humidity level in the cave at an ideal level for the barrel aging of wines. However, the cascading water also provides a beautifully calming aesthetic to all who encounter it.All the Jarvis wines in the store on SALE!!2022 Jarvis Estate Cave Fermented Chardonnay Napa Valley, USAPrice: $111.00 Sale Price: $99.90 Member Price $94.352022 Jarvis Estate Cave Fermented Chardonnay Napa Valley, USA (375 mL)Price: $60.75 Sale Price: $54.68 Member Price $51.64The Jarvis Estate Chardonnay displays a brilliant golden color and graceful aromas of peach, honeysuckle, and orange blossom.

"When it came to writing about wine, I did what almost everybody does - faked it" - Art BuchwaldWe’re not faking it here at Wine Watch we actually drink the wines!! It was just brought to my attention that although we have a nice collection of vintage Chateauneuf Du Pape in the store right now we are lacking in the value section of this category and in newer current release wines. So, I thought it was time to host a happy Hour Southern Rhone wine tasting featuring new releases from Chateauneuf Du Pape to restock this section of the store. The Southern Rhone Valley is one of France’s most prized wine regions and at one time one of the most counterfeited wines on the planet! It was here that France’s AOC laws originated, they drew up a set of laws to guarantee the authenticity and the origin of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and the rest of France followed. Join us as we explore the world of Southern Rhone wines tasting through over a dozen wines from Chateauneuf du Pape and some of the other great appellations of this region like Gigondas and Vacqueyras. The fee for this tasting is $75 + tax.

A bit about Chateauneuf Du PapeAlphonse Daudet, the French writer, once called Châteauneuf-du-Pape the "Wine of Kings and the King of Wines." The wines of this region with the easy sounding name have been legendary for hundreds of years. In 1309 a French Cardinal was elected Pope Clement V. Because there was much strife between the French King and Rome, Pope Clement chose to remain in France. The Pope, formerly the Bishop of Bordeaux, owned his own vineyard in the Graves district of Bordeaux (now known as Château Pape-Clement and one of the better properties of Graves); and he was very interested in cultivating vines in the new papal residence he established in Avignon. It was really Clement's successor, Pope John XXII, who did extensive planting of vineyards and constructed a castle outside of Avignon, called the Châteauneuf-du-Pape or "new house of the Pope." This was an affluent time in Avignon; many parties were thrown and much wine was drunk. Although wine had been grown in the surrounding villages for 150 years, it was the papacy that spread the fame of these wines from Avignon.In the 1920's some of the growers at Châteauneuf-du-Pape became really concerned about the amount of "foreign" wine being sold as Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The late Baron Le Roy, the proprietor of Château Fortia, one of the great estates of the district, drew up a set of laws to guarantee the authenticity and the origin of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. These laws later became the model for France's Appellation Contrôllée laws and were later copied by the Germans, the Spanish, and the Italians. Although the laws have been in force for some years, it is common knowledge that there is still a great amount of illegitimate wine labeled Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The local growers and estate owners realize that one of the problems is that 80% of the wine is made and bottled at facilities outside the district; this obviously leaves room for tremendous abuse. We have found many Châteauneuf-du-Papes from shippers to be variable in quality, and we recommend only those wines that have been estate bottled within the district. In order to make these wines more identifiable to the consumer, the growers use a bottle with the old papal coat of arms. We enthusiastically recommend these wines and urge that you avoid almost all the plain-bottle négociant wines (shipper's blends).Besides the great difference between estate-bottled and négociant wines in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the grape composition of the wines further complicates the picture. As many as thirteen different varieties can go into the make-up of a Châteauneuf; each grower swears by the percentage of the grape he uses. Since different grapes contribute different characteristics to the overall wine (Grenache and Cinsault for warmth and mellowness; Mourvèdre and Syrah for solidity and color etc.), it is understandable how different estates with different grape compositions can produce very different wines. Further complicating everything is how the harvest conditions affect the grapes - all of which ripen at slightly different intervals. It is easy to see why the variation in quality is broader in Châteauneuf-du-Pape than perhaps any wine district in France.

Please let us know when you make your reservations if you have any dietary restrictions or food allergies and chefs Toni and Dani will be happy to accommodate you.A bit about Kosta Brown Winery:The story of Kosta-Browne begins with two friends, Dan Kosta and Michael Browne. The year was 1997 and the buddies both were working at John Ash & Co., a popular restaurant in Santa Rosa, California. Dan was the general manager; Michael was the sommelier. But their real passion was something bigger, bolder, and more brazen than anything either ever had done: They wanted to create Pinot Noir. The catch: Neither gentleman had experience making wine. What ensued was a tale of perseverance, dedication, and hard work. That, and of course, a little bit of pinot noir.Once Dan and Michael agreed to make wine together, they realized they needed money to bring the dream to life. So they started saving. Dan proposed saving $10 apiece every night on those nights when the duo worked together. Looking back, he says, “The amount was something that wasn’t going to kill us but something that was going to push us to keep going.” As Dan and Michael socked away their hard-earned cash, they stashed the money in an envelope that they kept in Dan’s desk drawer. Over the course of a few months (working anywhere from three to five nights a week), they amassed about $1,000, still a few hundred bucks short of their goal. Thankfully, a chef at the restaurant kicked in the difference and Dan and Michael were on their way. The next step: Purchasing equipment and grapes.With $1,400 in the bank, Dan and Michael managed to buy a half-ton of pinot noir grapes from Everett Ridge, in the Russian River appellation. The next challenge: Actually making the wine. Neither man had problems using other people’s equipment for most of the winemaking, but Michael insisted on purchasing a used barrel and his own hand-cranked de-stemmer/crusher. Finding the barrel was easy; finding the other tool proved to be a bigger challenge. Finally, with harvest approaching, they bought the device from a friend. All told, Dan and Michael estimate they spent about $400 of their cash on equipment and about $1,000 on grapes. Once the wine was in the barrel, they made enough labels for 24 cases. Those early labels read KOSTA BROWNE. They looked eerily like the ones we use today.Dan and Michael poured most of that first barrel for VIP customers at the restaurant. When the barrel was almost empty, the duo decided it was time to raise some more money. This time they didn’t pool tips; instead, in 1999, Dan and Michael secured some angel investments from friends and family and made 3,400 cases of sauvignon blanc from Lake County. As Michael explains, this move made sense because sauvignon blanc grapes were cheaper than pinot noir, the wine didn’t need barrels to age, and he and Dan could turn around the product quickly. “It was a quick strike,” he says. It also was a decent hit; the wine sold well enough to get the brand moving, almost exclusively through distribution.The following year—2000, to be exact—Michael set out to follow his dream and make more pinot noir. Because Kosta Browne was so young, because it wasn’t well-known yet, Michael experienced a certain degree of difficulty getting good grapes. After weeks of networking, Michael convinced John Ferrington, the former assistant winemaker at Williams Selyem, to connect him with the owners at Cohn Vineyard, a source for one of Williams Selyem’s single-vineyard designate wines. Always the charmer, Michael convinced the Cohns to sell him grapes. The good news: Finally, our winemaker could make more pinot. The bad news (at least for a startup winery running low on cash): That pinot needed time to age.Waiting for wine to age can get dull, and in early 2001, Michael decided he’d pass the time by writing a formal business plan. He studied business books. He read through plans friends gave him. Finally, over the course of a weekend, he put together a plan of his own. He printed it out at the Kinko’s on 4th Street in downtown Santa Rosa. Dan took the finished plan to his father, Tom, to ask for advice. Eventually, Dan and Michael ended up in a meeting with local entrepreneurs, Rick Markoff, Jim Costello and his son, Chris. After spending time with the guys, they were all intrigued. Then they tasted the 2000 Cohn. They were hooked, and agreed to form a partnership.Chris’s first act on behalf of the fledgling partnership was to work with his father and Rick to rewrite Michael’s business plan. With the right plan in hand, the challenge was three-fold: To line up investors, to make more pinot noir, and to figure out how to sell it. Michael and Dan were optimistic this next phase would take months; the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, slowed the industry to a halt, and the next chapter took three years. There’s no way to sugar-coat it—this time was a slog. Michael’s broken-down Volkswagen Jetta became the company car, and he drove it all over the San Francisco Bay Area to drum up support. Jim leveraged his network hard to entice investment. After three years of meetings, rewrites and a restructuring, the team had raised just short of $1 million from 19 investors.The leaders of the new partnership, and Jim in particular, recruited nearly every one of this crew personally, by sharing the vision, enthusiasm, determination, and dedication to quality exuding from both Dan and Michael. The group became known as the “Founder Investors.” Without them, Kosta Browne likely wouldn’t have made it through this difficult time. Bankruptcy certainly was an option—Michael and Dan mentioned it frequently but refused to give up. Chris remembers he felt the same way. “I thought of backing out numerous times, but I never did,” he says. “Michael’s enthusiasm and determination and Dan’s likability and charisma kept me involved.” Michael channeled a different kind of inspiration—in one particularly disheartening stretch, he pictured himself in a rhinoceros costume, barreling his way through the realities that were holding him back. In the end, the team was committed to making great wine. Their perseverance was about to pay off.From the very beginning, Michael’s goal with his pinot noir was to get at least one 90-point score. With this in mind, in 2005 he made a decision that would change the history of Kosta Browne forever. He was late to bottle the 2003 vintage that year, so he implemented a micro-filtering technique that eliminated the possibility of bottle fermentation, removed doubts, and preserved the integrity of the wine. These simple differences in protocol—longer hang-time for the fruit, more aging in the barrel, micro-filtering—resulted in an elegant intensity upon which critics seized in reviews for that vintage. Wine Spectator gave the 2003s two 95s, as well as three other scores of 90 or higher. They were unprecedented scores for a winery as small as Kosta Browne. And the scores changed everything. Michael admits he was “terrified” when he heard the news, and wondered: “How the hell am I going to keep this up?!” Chris remembers him being white as a ghost when he arrived at the winery that morning, and screaming with glee when he heard the news.From there, the name of the game at Kosta Browne was growth. With growing numbers of collectors and connoisseurs becoming interested in Kosta Browne, demand skyrocketed, and our brand set off on the path toward becoming the fan favorite it is today. Vintages sold out. The list to be on our list grew. Michael and Dan found themselves in the difficult-but-not-shabby position of telling friends and customers that they’d have to wait for the opportunity to purchase wine. It all added to the mystique. We were able to move into our own dedicated winery facility, still nothing fancy but a place that was just for us. We had the tools to continue to make great wine and keep our fans happy. Almost overnight, Kosta Browne became a cult sensation. It was an overnight success that took eight years to happen. The rest, as they say, is history.In 2011 they were named Wine Spectator’s #1 Wine of the Year with their 2009 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir. It was an honor that could only fuel their steadfast dedication and focus on quality. They remained committed to embracing innovation, pushing boundaries and always welcomed unconventional approaches in the cellar to make irresistible Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines of elegant intensity.These varieties reflect their growing conditions and winemaking approaches like no other and thus the obsession with capturing the individual expression of the state’s finest growing regions—the rugged and diverse Sonoma Coast, the foggy Russian River Valley, the chilly Santa Lucia Highlands, the coastal proximity of the Sta. Rita Hills and the wild, untamed Anderson Valley.Through the artful blending of their vineyard sites and their individual blocks and rows, they strive to create the purest expression of each appellation’s unique personality. Even though they sold out in 2018 to the group that owns Duckhorn winery but the goal has not changed, they are still focused on making the best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the top vineyard sites in California.

“I pray you, do not fall in love with me, for I am falser than vows made in wine.”William Shakespeare, As You Like ItWe never make vows with wine unless it is over 16% alcohol…. there are only a few grape varietals that can handle that level of heat without being out of balance with Syrah and Grenache being two of them.Syrah or Shiraz is one of the few red grape varietals that can by itself be made into a world class wine that can be cellared for decades. Although the names are not identical the grape varietal is the same. Grenache is another one of the most prominent Rhone varietals and although it is fairly different from Shiraz the wine drinking people that enjoy Shiraz also seem to enjoy Grenache.I know this may seem like Déjà vu but that’s because we just hosted a tasting featuring Sine Qua Non wines, however so I figured it would be good to have a second look at these wines but this time at 10+ years of age, after all we are doing scientific research with wine here at Wine Watch!! When we hit a subject we hit it hard and as many times as we can in a short period of time.The fee for this tasting includes dinner and gratuity is $350 + tax for reservations call 954-523-9463 or e-mail andy@winewatch.com.California Cult Rhone TastingFeaturing Sine Qua Non, Alban, Saxum and AndremilyFriday, August 7th7:30 PM2009 SAXUM PADEREWSKI VINEYARD PASO ROBLES2012 Saxum Terry Hoage Vineyard Paso Robles2017 Sine Qua Non Eleven Confessions Vineyard Grenache Sta Rita Hills2017 Sine Qua Non Eleven Confessions Vineyard Syrah Sta Rita Hills2019 ALBAN VINEYARDS SYRAH REVA ALBAN ESTATE VINEYARD2020 Alban Vineyards Pandora Red Edna Valley2020 Andremily Wines Syrah Slide Hill Edna Valley2020 Sine Qua Non Distenta I Grenache California2021 Andremily Wines EABA Santa Barbara County2023 Sine Qua Non Distenta V Syrah, CaliforniaMenuSelection of Cheese and CharcuterieSeared Ancho BBQ King Salmon Served over Black Bean Puree with Roasted Pepper SalsaSyrah Braised Lamb Shank with White Bean Puree and Sundried TomatoDark Chocolate Creme Brulee with Raspberry CoulisThe fee for this tasting which includes dinner and gratuity is $350 + tax, for reservations call 954-523-9463 or e-mail andy@winewatch.com. Please let us know when you make your reservations if you have issues and chef Toni will be happy to accommodate you.A bit about Sine Qua Non from their web page: "an essential condition; a thing that is absolutely necessary."Our wines were born of pure passion and a wishful dream – to make something that is so distinctive and so delicious as to make it indispensable to wine lovers the world over. Clearly a rather lofty, even unrealistic notion, but one we decided to pursue anyway. And so with the 1994 vintage started Sine Qua Non, made a whopping four and a half barrels of Syrah that we called “Queen of Spades.”That first wine was a much greater hit than we could have ever imagined and it literally changed our life. What started as a hobby, more or less on a whim, has become not only our full time occupation, but indeed our life. It is now a part of just about everything we do.These first four and a half barrels have grown into four different vineyard sites (see our Vineyards section please), a good number of wonderfully dedicated and hard working employees, a new winery building and a simply amazing number of loyal wine lovers the world over. In fact there are so very many lovely folks interested in our wines that we don’t have enough to go around and instead had to create something as annoying as a waiting list.We are humbled by all the positive feedback we continuously receive by people like you as well as critics and journalists from all corners of the earth. We take that as our mandate to forever strive to get better, to never compromise and to stay true to ourselves and by extension to all those who have supported us and believed in us since those first 100+ cases of wine left our cellar…now so many years ago.Although at heart we are a Rhone (Ranger) house where Syrah and Grenache play top fiddle… supported by Mourvedre, Rousanne and Viognier, we have an aversion to labels and dogmas or mindless ritual that are sometimes called tradition. And so we also grow non-Rhone-origin grapes such as Petite Manseng, Touriga Nacional, Graciano and Petite Sirah. Varieties we believe can work well on a Rhone canvas.We are not working on a grape growing or winemaking THESIS. Instead we want all of our efforts to be reflected in every glass of SQN. And so our goal has been and always will be to understand Mother Nature’s often oblique ways and (re)act accordingly so that we may create wines that express all that Nature has so generously given us. And all that this beautifully warm and sunny place called California has to offer. Wines that speak to the heart and the mind both. Wines that are ripe and flavorful, but also graceful and balanced. Wines that are perfectly enjoyable and delicious young, but that will age and show a new and interesting personality with each passing year. Wines that surprise with each sip and where the last drop – not the first sip – was the best one. Wines that make you smile and happy and appreciate all that is lovely.Wines that make you sense they were crafted by people who loved making them.With that we hope you’ll join our vinous family and thanks again for looking us up.In vino veritas,Elaine & Manfred KranklAll the Sine Qua Non in the store on SALE!!2023 Sine Qua Non Distenta V Grenache California(98 points) Bottled only three weeks

All have different soils and micro-climates, but all share farming practices that are gentle, hands-on, natural (although we are not certified, we are essentially organic) and consistent. We believe these to be the four cornerstones of great fruit and subsequently great wine. is 33 acres located in the cool Santa Rita Hills appellation. We planted 22 acres in 2001, primarily Syrah and Grenache, but also some Roussanne and a tiny bit of Viognier and Petite Sirah. The other 11 acres were Pinot Noir, planted by the previous ranch owners. About half of this has been grafted to three different clones of Chardonnay and a touch of Muscat. Because the climate is rather cool, we regularly experience very late harvests; seldom before the end of October and frequently well into November. This means very long “hang time” and thus full flavored, but never over-ripe or raisined fruit. Although the vineyard is densely planted with 2,420 vines per acre, we typically have very low yields of less than 1.5 tons per acre or more importantly around 1 ¼lb. of fruit per vine. This is one of the many criteria toward great wine quality. is our “home” vineyard. It is located in the rather little known area of Oak View (south of Santa Barbara) where we live and where we also have our winery. The area is relatively warm and therefore it typically is the first of our vineyards to be harvested. Here we have numerous small blocks of varying vine training styles. The first block was planted in 2004 and is comprised of Syrah, Grenache and Roussanne. In 2008 we planted two more blocks. These house the rare white grape Petite Manseng, the equally rare Portugese Touriga Nacional, as well as small amounts of Mourvedre, Petite Sirah and two more small Syrah sections. One of these blocks is trained in a sort of Cote Rotie style. It is a super dense planting at 4,350 vines per acre and also own-rooted (no foreign rootstocks grafted onto the scions).This CUMULUS Vineyard is also the fruit source for a newer brand that was launched with the 2007 vintage. It is called NEXT OF KYN. A young sister to SINE QUA NON if you will.is a vineyard property that we purchased in the spring of 2010. It is located near the quaint town of Los Alamos in the central coast. A small vineyard of mostly Syrah and a bit of Petite Sirah had been planted there in the year 2000 and, much to our surprise and delight, it was all own-rooted… our favorite, albeit a somewhat risky proposition because of the exposure to the dreaded phylloxera. This vineyard has rather sandy soils and the micro-climate could be called moderate. Staggeringly beautiful fruit has come from this site. In fact, we were so impressed that in the early spring of 2011 we planted another block, in even sandier soils. In fact, almost pure sand and very deep. The first delightful fruit from that vineyard block came with the amazingly great 2014 harvest. What a treat this site is. Hard to put into words. is a place tucked away in the remote Tepusquet Canyon. It is a Hermit’s paradise. Hard to find, hard to access, way up at some 1800 feet elevation. There, in that hidden paradise, we planted a little bucolic 2 acre vineyard in a Chateauneuf-du-Pape like bush vine style, but all Mourvedre for now. We picked the first tiny bit of fruit nuggets there in the stingy 2015 vintage. The effort is a bit disproportionate to the quantity received, but heck it is worth the struggle at times.At this time, we only have one more fruit source that is not grown and owned by us. And that is the heart warming Bien Nacido Vineyard in the very cool area of Santa Maria. Syrah from that vineyard was our very first fruit source and our first SQN wine… “Queen of Spades”… came from that fruit. We no longer contract Syrah, but we still have a small section of delightful Chardonnay for our white wine program and a tiny little “laboratory” block for Grenache, Mourvedre, Roussanne and Marsanne.One of the original Rhone Rangers from California and we have a few new releases and some older vintage wines from the godfather of the Rhone wine movement in California. There were less than 50 acres of Viognier in California when John Alban started planting Rhone varietals is the Central Coast of California. John was instrumental in bringing over the best clones and planting some of the first high quality Rousanne, Syrah, Grenache and Viognier in the state of California. There are only a few cases of each of the wines below that come to Florida as most of these wines are still only available on their mailing list.

It showcases the forward heady stone fruit of this variety. It is fermented and aged entirely in stainless steel and bottled early.2021 Alban Vineyards 'Patrina' Syrah Edna ValleyPrice: $65.00 Your Price: $58.50 Quantity in Stock: 1Patrin is a Roma word for leaf and grass blades. We wanted a romani association for this wine because it is not a wine from a ‘place’ so much as one shaped by us; our traditions and joys. The Roma have a very strong and romantic culture, but they are not tied to any particular location.By mounding up patrin in specific configurations called Patrina, Romani mark secret trails that their comrades can follow to special gathering places. Under the right circumstances, Patrina lead these kindred spirits to wonderful celebrations underscored by wine and song.Our vineyards are a patchwork of isolated soil types that you may recognize as Reva, Lorraine, Seymour’s and Pandora (very much wines of a place). Between and in route to these well healed sites are vineyards that are not so obviously distinct. We have blended these disparate and ‘disenfranchised’ blocks into a single wine we call Patrina. Like the Romani trails from which Patrina derives its name, we hope these bottles lead you to some great merriment, or more.While the grapes for Patrina are raised with the same detail and attentiveness as the rest of our vineyards, and then fermented open top with indigenous yeast, gentle pump overs and a few punch downs once soft, it is bottled unfined and unfiltered after ‘just’ 22 months in barrel to preserve its youthful exuberance. All the density and concentration folks have come to expect from our reds with black and blue fruits, mineral notes, and flowers.2021 Alban Vineyards Grenache Alban Estate VineyardPrice: $125.00 Your Price: $112.50 Quantity in Stock: 5(95-97 Points) Based on 95% Grenache and 5% Syrah, the 2021 Grenache has a juicy, upfront style in its blackberries, blueberries, pepper, lavender, and violet-like aromas and flavors. With a big, exotic, full-bodied mouthfeel and a terrific mid-palate, it brings a powerful, opulent, yet classic 2021 focused style. Jeb Dunnuck, Review Date: 08/20242020 Alban Vineyards Lorraine Estate Syrah Edna ValleyPrice: $202.50 Your Price: $182.25 Quantity in Stock: 2(98 Points) Wow, the 2020 Syrah Lorraine is a blockbuster-styled expression of this cuvée. It has an inky purple hue as well as a blockbuster nose of ripe black and blue fruits, smoked meats, ground pepper, iodine, and floral notes. These carry to a full-bodied, deep, unctuous Syrah with flawless tannins, a deep, layered mouthfeel, and a massive style that will evolve for two decades. Jeb Dunnuck, Review Date: 08/20242019 Alban Vineyards Lorraine Estate Syrah Edna ValleyPrice: $219.00 Your Price: $197.10 Quantity in Stock: 4(96 Points) I tasted the 2019 Syrah Lorraine on July 8, shortly after its bottling in June. With air, it unfolds steadily from cassis, blueberries and aniseed to nuances of violet, mint and botanicals. The full-bodied palate is plush and silky, refreshing and lifted, with tremendously perfumed fruit and a long finish with generous, graphite-laced fruit. This graceful, juicy Syrah is approachable straight from the bottle but will benefit from another 3-5 years in bottle to unwind. It will be released in the spring of 2024. Wine Advocate2010 Alban Vineyards Lorraine Estate Syrah Edna Valley, USAPrice: $265.00 Your Price: $238.50 Quantity in Stock: 1(97 Points) Sporting the same inky color as the Reva, the 2010 Syrah Lorraine Vineyard has terrific elegance and purity in its sweet black raspberry fruits, crushed flowers, creme de cassis and subtle smoked meat characteristics. Seriously concentrated and backward on the palate (this cuvee normally is the most approachable of the lineup), with a rich, full mouthfeel, a big mid-palate and a great finish, give bottles 2-3 years and enjoy through 2030. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate2020 Alban Vineyards Syrah Reva Alban Estate Edna ValleyPrice: $125.00 Your Price: $112.50 Quantity in Stock: 4(98 Points) Unabashedly powerful yet visceral and alluring, John Alban's Syrah is a benchmark expression of the sun-drenched intensity of the maritime Edna Valley in San Luis Obispo. Smoky, spicy swirls of raspberry preserve, leather and sweet tobacco meld into a palate that's profoundly ripe yet lively and fresh, struck by layers of dusty graphite, ore and iodine. Breathtaking in youth but certain to develop further complexity. (ALI) Decanter, Review Date: 02/20242019 Alban Vineyards Syrah Reva Alban Estate VineyardPrice: $125.00 Your Price: $112.50 Quantity in Stock: 11In the earliest years of Alban Vineyards, I lived in a rented green house propagating cuttings. When I wasn’t making vines, I was busy looking for the future home for all the vines in my nursery. I spent 7 years looking at possible vineyard sites all over the Central Coast of California. Whenever I found a promising site, I negotiated a due diligence period during which I could do soil and site analysis. While mapping out the last piece I’d ever evaluate (because it was the one that turned into Alban Vineyards) I happened to name a little ridge on one part of the ranch ‘Reva’s Ridge’. It was a play on words incorporating the name of a Kentucky Derby winner: Riva’s Ridge, and my mother’s name which is Reva. Clearly I’d been in the sun too long and I will admit that I am a total ‘mama’s boy’. Years later, after calling the vineyard Reva and tagging the first barrel as Reva, I embraced the obvious: I named the wine Reva.The grapes that go into Reva (97-100% Syrah with the balance Viognier) are from neutral sandy soils and portions of ranch that are chalky and quite alkaline. This combination makes for a wine with dark color, concentrated flavors of black fruits, fennel, and graphite. Perhaps the most distinguishing note of Reva is a unique iodine and oyster shell aromatic that is unlike anything in our other Syrahs. The wine is aged 3.5 years in barrels before bottling unfined and unfiltered.2020 Alban Vineyards Pandora Red Edna ValleyPrice: $202.50 Your Price: $182.25 Quantity in Stock: 6(93 Points) Hailing from the pure chalk soils of Seymour's Vineyard, the 2020 Grenache Pandora was aged for 34 months in 60% new French oak. The nose is a fragrant yet immensely concentrated mix of ripe berries, purple flowers and hints of kelp-driven umami tones. The palate is full-bodied and slick in texture, featuring loads of polished black fruits lined with subtle acidity that lead to a finish dominated by saturated fruit flavors, crushed stones and oak tannins.John Alban is a pioneer through and through, having spearheaded the Rhône Ranger movement and set into motion what would become some of the Central Coast's most sought-after bottlings, both through his eponymous label and those he inspired and mentored. The Alban wines are unapologetically style-driven, anchored around ripe, forward fruit intensity and the equally unabashed use of extended élevage in new French oak. Although they remain primarily full-throttle examples of the Edna Valley, recent vintages have seen many wines reeled in from some of their prior hedonism, most notably the signature trio of vineyard-designate Syrahs. Published: Jul 18, 2024, The Wine Advocate2020 Alban Seymour's Syrah Edna ValleyPrice: $202.50 Your Price: $182.25 Quantity in Stock: 5(98-100 Points) As with the Lorraine release, the 2020 Syrah Seymour's is a monster of a wine offering more density and depth than normal while staying balanced with classic Seymour's structure. This inky purple-hued beauty offers a gorgeous perfume of pure cassis, crushed stone, graphite, and ground pepper. Full-bodied, massively concentrated, and pedal-to-the-metal on the palate, it has building tannins and a solid spine of freshness that keeps you coming back to the glass. It will take a solid decade to hit the early stages of maturity, but don't let that stop you from trying a bottle in its youth. Jeb Dunnuck, Review Date: 08/2023I would try to tell the story of this producer but John does an amazing job describing his journey, this excerpt comes from his website: https://www.albanvineyards.com/about“Before I was old enough to drink wine (legally), I spent a lot of time wondering why Europe fermented over 500 different grape varieties, while California was using about 6. The strangest part was that people only drank 2 of the six. Fortunately, I was too young to recognize that anyone seriously planning to change how many wine types were being produced in California would have to contend with the American love affair with Cabernet and Chardonnay; our wine equivalents of chocolate and vanilla.Far into my quest for wine grapes that would make sense for California, I celebrated my 24th birthday. That evening a friend handed me a glass of Condrieu. Knowing nothing about the wine, and informed simply (though erroneously) that it was cheap, I downed what would prove to be one of the most significant gulps of my life. Instantly I could see myself producing the world's greatest six-dollar bottle of wine. I envisioned myself hanging out with the Gallo boys. The next day I researched everything U.C. Davis had on the subject of Condrieu- about 12 sentences. I learned 3 key facts: Viognier is the grape of Condrieu, it ain't cheap, and I'd soon be moving to the Rhone if I wanted to learn much more.I frantically completed my course work and research for my Master's in enology at Davis, immersed myself in everything Rhone, and applied for a scholarship that was being offered by the Franco-American chamber of commerce. The degree "allowed" me to start re-paying my student loans, the Rhone immersion kept me smiling, and the scholarship was my ticket to France.While apprenticing anywhere producers would let me- from Beaujolais to Provence, I also spent a good bit of time organizing climate and soil information. Everything I found indicated that Syrah, Grenache, Viognier and Roussanne made more than mere sense for California. The information left me puzzling over how we ever planted Chardonnay from Ukiah all the way down to Temecula. I would have plenty of time to puzzle as my next 6 years would be spent 'picking up sticks'.Vines are propagated from vines. Just as it's tough to get a chicken without an egg and vice versa, it's impossible to get vines without vines. Because there was essentially no Grenache Noir, Roussanne, or Viognier in California at that time, and the clones of Syrah were few and poorly documented, I would need a lot of time to make cuttings. Starting with only a handful of various selections, it took years to generate commercial quantities of the vines I wanted to grow.Spending all those years in green houses, I lost touch with reality. At a time when there were fewer than 50 acres of Viognier in the world, I propagated 32. Perhaps the only wine more obscure than Viognier was varietally labeled Roussanne. Our release of pure Roussanne in 1991 was the second such wine produced globally and the first from the United States (what exactly Bergeron is remains in doubt).Since reds take more cellar time, I originally hit the road pouring my two whites-Viognier and Roussanne. If I had not been so young and brash, I might have been discouraged by the barrage of folks who kept telling me that consumers haven't heard of these wines, and no one can pronounce Viognier (Vee-own-yeah is easy to say; tough to read. Anything with the word So-veenyown; as in Cabernet So-veen-yown is truly hard to say).What I really discovered on my journeys was that compared to the amount of wine I had, there was an abundance of progressively minded folk all over the world open to the idea that delicious is more important than varietal recognition. I am forever indebted to the core group of courageous and passionate wine buyers and sommeliers who championed Alban Vineyards in the early years. The people who were driven to hand-sell and promote wines that in and of themselves were of little economic significance to them. These 'missionaries' nurtured the fledgling California rhone movement, and with it took our wine trade from black and white into the age of color. I am delighted to see Rhone varieties flourish throughout California and rather overwhelmed by Robert Parker's declaration in The Wine Advocate that I am "...the spiritual and qualitative leader of the movement..."Many of our original customers are now my good friends. Some I have even worked with to help start wineries of their own focusing on Rhone varieties. Two moved to San Luis Obispo County to help organize Hospice Du Rhone- the world's largest international celebration of these wines, visit www.hospicedurhone.org. As the Rhone renaissance became truly international and significantly rooted in what happened here in California, perhaps the greatest surprise in my life thus far was how the story came full circle. In 2005 I was made an honorary citizen and Decurion of Cote Rotie and Condrieu. The sons and daughters of the producers who were terrified about my plans to develop their then threatened varieties internationally, believed that my efforts had actually accelerated recognition and interest in their own wineries. Being presented this distinction before the leaders of these key northern Rhone appellations, on their home turf, remains somewhat surreal to this day.In some ways my life is still measured in sticks. As more people have discovered the world beyond chocolate and vanilla, there has been an explosion in plantings of these varieties. Alban Vineyards has provided a large portion of the cuttings needed to see California's Viognier acreage go from 0 to over 2000, and Syrah has jumped from a few hundred acres to more than 17,000. Grenache will be next. But the story has gone way beyond change and diversity. Of the 22 wineries in California included in Robert Parker's The World' Greatest Wine Estates, 10 currently make at least one 'Rhone', and 2 produce almost exclusively wines from Rhone varieties. While we Rhone producers may forever be 'garage bands' at heart, our stage is now very much international.Andremily Wines on SALE!!Andremily Wines has quickly earned the respect and now sits alongside some of the greatest producers of Rhône-varietal blends in California’s Central Coast. This should not come as a surprise as owner and winemaker Jim Binns earned his winemaker wings during his 12 years as assistant winemaker to Manfred Krankl at Sine Qua Non (2006-2017). During his tenure at Sine Qua Non they achieved an amazing 27×100 points scores! Jim continues to add to his fame with every vintage as his stunning line-up at Andremily seems to just get better and better every year, balancing hedonism and elegance to near perfection every year.Jim and his wife Rachel’s work hand and hand with their two children which were the inspiration of the winery name. Andremily was inspired by, their son Andrew, and daughter Emily. When thinking of names for their new brand, they wanted their new venture to express a sense of family, which was accomplished by combining both of their children’s first names. In 2012, Andremily was born and Jim decided to moved on from Sine Qua Non in 2017 in an effort to dedicate 100% all of his time and efforts to Andremily Wines. The winery is located in the coastal city of Ventura, where they bring their rare elixirs through elevage.Manfred Krankl was very supportive from day one, and literally gifted Jim SQN’s contracts for two of his prized blocks of the White Hawk Vineyard in Santa Barbara’s Cat Canyon. Jim then started looking for other sources to compliment White Hawk, and luckily was able to secure a few great blocks at the Larner Vineyard in Ballard Canyon and then Alta Mesa Vineyard in the Cuyama Valley. Thus the foundation of Andremily winery was firmly in place and the debut 2012 vintage of ‘Andremily No.1’ was released to huge critical acclaim. A few more sources have been added to the tool box since, including the purchase of the Slide Vineyard in Edna Valley, which marks the beginning of Andremily Estate Vineyard.2023 Andremily "White Cuvée" Central Coast White BlendPrice: $120.00 Your Price: $108.00 2022 Andremily Wines Mourvedre, Santa Barbara County MagnumPrice: $325.00 20% OFF SALE $260 Quantity in Stock: 32022 Andremily Wines Mourvedre, Santa Barbara CountyPrice: $150.00 Your Price: $135.00 Quantity in Stock: 92022 Andremily #11 Santa Barbara County Syrah MagnumPrice: $350.00 20% OFF SALE $280 Quantity in Stock: 52022 Andremily Number 11 Santa Barbara County SyrahPrice: $150.00 Your Price: $135.00 Quantity in Stock: 112022 Andremily Wines Syrah Slide Hill Edna Valley MagnumPrice: $450.00 Your Price: $405.002022 Andremily "White Cuvée" Central Coast White BlendPrice: $120.00 Your Price: $108.00 Quantity in Stock: 12021 Andremily Wines Rose CaliforniaPrice: $84.00 Your Price: $75.60 Quantity in Stock: 22021 Andremily Wines Grenache Santa Barbara County, USAPrice: $150.00 Your Price: $135.00 Quantity in Stock: 62021 Andremily Wines Syrah #10 Santa Barbara MagnumPrice: $350.00 20% OFF SALE $280 Quantity in Stock: 1(97+ Points) The 2021 No. 10 is a blend of 93% Syrah 5% Mourvèdre and 2% Viognier.

“Sometimes it would be nice to just have some red wine with dinner, but it’s not worth the risk. I have a great life, a great situation. Why would I want to risk self-destructive behavior?”Kristin Davis If wine with dinner is destructive then I am a wrecking ball!! I love Italian wines. It is hard to believe that when I bought the store 28 years ago, we only had 4 different Italian labels on the shelf. Today, we have one of the greatest collections of Barolos, Barbarescos, Super Tuscans, Chianti, and of course Amarone available not only in South Florida but anywhere in the world! We just received an incredible collection of vintage Amarone that included several vintages of one of our favorite Amarone producer’s wines. Yes, I am referring to the winery that invented Amarone- Bertani. That means it’s time to do some serious scientific work here with Amarone and on this night we have Bertani back to the legendary 1988 vintage! Bertani is an old school producer of Amarone, they don't have temperature controlled drying rooms like most of the modern Amarone producers today. They feel that the weather is one of the characteristics that determines the style of the vintage. Tonight, we have 10 different Amarone della Valpolicella on the table including several vintages of Bertani. The price of this event, which includes dinner and gratuity is $350 per person + tax.

A bit about Amarone and Valpolicella: Valpolicella, according to some accounts, means “valley of many cellars,” which seems fitting. It is derived, they say, from the Greek word poli (many) and the Latin cella (cellar). This area is approximately 27 miles long and 5 miles wide, it passes north and west of Verona, extending from the Adige River to the Cazzano Valley. Bardolino and Lake Garda lie to the west and Soave to the east. The land ranges in altitude from 490 to 1,475 feet above sea level. The vines in the classico district to the northwest of Verona, are planted on the hillsides and mountain slopes of the valleys of the Adige tributaries and the Fumane, Marano, and Negrar torrents. Some of the vineyards are terraced with stone. The cretaceous, calcareous soil is of glacial origins. And volcanic activity in this area contributed elements to the soil as well. The area around Sant’Ambrogio is considered the heart of the Amarone production zone. Within this area, northeast of Gargagnago, is a valley called Vaio Armaron, which may have given the wine its name. The blend of grapes typically used in Valpolicella is Corvina (40%-70%), Rondinella (20%-40%), Molinara (5%-25%) and may contain up to 15% Negrara Trentina, Rossignola, Dindarella, Barbera, and/or Sangiovese. Before 1989 producers were allowed to add as much as 15% of grapes, must, or wine from outside the zone to correct problems from a weak vintage, but this practice is prohibited today. Corvina contributes color, body, bouquet, flavor, and the basic Valpolicella character to the wine. Rondinella, which is resistant to disease and rot, is added for its color and strength, tannin and vigor, it also adds some refinement to the azromas. Molinara, or Mulinara, is also known as Rossara Veronese and Rossanella, is blended in to make the wine lighter and more drinkable. It also contributes dryness and acidity, as well as that characteristic bitterness. Negrara, adds softness, freshness and early drinkability. The first dry Amarone, according to writer Cesare Marchi, was the result of a fortunate accident. In the early 1950s, Adelino Lucchese, Bertani’s cellarmaster, discovered a barrel of wine in the cellar that had been overlooked and neglected for some time. Certain that it had spoiled he was about to discard its contents, when curiosity prompted him to take a taste just to see what had happened. He was astonished to discover that the forgotten wine had a velvety texture and a penetrating perfume, a slightly bitter taste, but not at all unpleasant. There is however evidence that the Romans made a type of bitter Recioto for diabetics or other people who couldn’t take sugar. Sandro Boscaini of Masi pointed out that some of the oldest families in Valpolicella, the Count Campostrini and Count Serego Alighieri, as well as his own produced an Amaro, a dry Recioto. This would seem to indicate that Amarone is considerably older that Marchi admits. According to another book called Valpolicella Spolendida Contea Dei Vino, written by Lamberto Paronetto, the name Amarone has been in use since the eighteenth century. It became popular at the beginning of this century and the name could very well be derived from the Italian word amaro, meaning “bitter” (scholar Scipione Maffei, writing in the first half of the eighteenth century, refers to an amaro, a dry wine from the Valpolicella area), or it could come from Vajo Armaron, where some highly regarded Amarones have been produced for ages.
