INTELLIGENCE FOR THE WINE CONSUMER
BY LEN NAPOLITANO
Whats happening at a winery during harvest?

Harvest season is defined by the months when ripe grapes start
getting picked from vines, transported to the winery and processed
into wine. It is commonly known as crush. Its a stressful time for
everyone involved, as tons of grapes arrive at the winery every hour,
and the talentand patienceof winemakers, assistant winemakers,
lab workers and seasonal interns are tested.
Prior to accepting the first batch of grapes, the winemaking team
makes sure all of the processing equipment is thoroughly clean and
in working order, all pumps and hoses rinsed and sanitized, barrels
washed and dried, and yeast and chemicals at hand. The work they
do and decisions they make during this busy period play an
important role in how their wines will perform when released to the
public some within a year, as with most white wines, or up to four
years later for some full-bodied red wines.

The day begins at dawn to pick grapes

before temperatures get too hot and while fruit is still cool from
overnight temperatures. Everyone involved is aware that an
unexpected event could turn a years worth of effort into
disappointing results. For example, an independent grower who
decided when to pick the grapes might send the winery fruit outside
the winemakers acceptable range of ripeness. Its possible the grapes
could be rejected and the winery will have to figure out how to make
up for that loss of tonnage. If overly ripe grapes are accepted, creating
a quality wine from them might require adjustments in the
winemaking process possibly the addition of acids or application
of a different type of yeast than anticipated. Winemakers have to be
ready for all situations.
In the coolest wine-growing regions, where grapes do not always
achieve full ripeness, juice almost always needs adjusting before
fermentation unless a low-alcohol wine is desired. If state wine law
allows it, sugar is added a step called chaptalization in order to
achieve acceptable alcohol content.
If you happen to be at a winery during harvest, you will see grapes
trucked in from the vineyard, typically in white plastic bins, about
four-feet square. Bins have the capacity to carry either one-half or one
ton of grapes. Full bins of red grapes are dumped by forklift into a
machine called a destemmer-crusher, which first separates grapes
from stems and then gently crushes them to release the juices.

BRIDGE BRANDS CHOCOLATE

Gourmet, Artisan Chocolate
Of the many gourmet, artisan chocolates,

here are a few favorites:
Chocolate Lovers Chocolate
Cocoa Vinoso
Coffee Lovers Chocolate
Tea Lovers Chocolate
Chocolate by Numbers
Ever since 1999, Bridge Brands Chocolate has been providing chocolate lovers everywhere with a
wide range of gourmet, artisan chocolates. Everybody loves chocolate, Bridge Brands Chocolates Mike
Litton states. With this in mind, this artisan chocolate company has developed niche market products
like Tea Lovers Chocolate, Coffee Lovers Chocolate and Wine Lovers Chocolateall of which
distinguish themselves from each other with unique recipes and various percentages of cacao. People
are interested in chocolate that is geared towards their interests, Litton says, which is why products
like Wine Lovers Chocolate are simply irresistible for serious wine enthusiasts.
Wine Lovers ChocolateDeveloped to Pair Pefectly with Six Iconic Varietals

Wine Lovers Chocolate was developed for wine enthusiasts who enjoy the way wine and chocolate
interact on the palate. However, not all chocolate and wine pairings are crated equalin fact, if
chocolate is too sweet, it can change the drinkability of the wine. For this reason, dark chocolate with
strong amounts of cacao were developed to synergize with the wines taste.
With Wine Lovers Chocolate, each selection possesses a specific cacao percentage that suits its
varietal pairing. Whats more, is that each of the six iconic varietalsPort, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot,
Syrah, Zinfandel and Pinot Noirwere tested against the chocolate by wine experts to ensure that each
pairing resulted in a high quality experience.

Say it with Chocolate:

Customizable Tins
One of the many unique features of Bridge
Brands Chocolate is the option to order
customizable tins, full of delectable
chocolate drops. From baby showers to
wedddings and even for private businesses
and wineries, customize your own tins for a
unique gift or resale item. Please contact
Jim Schwartz at (805) 801-1995 for inquiries.
Distinct Taste Profiles

When tasting through the Wine Lovers Chocolate collection, it is enjoyable to distinguish the subtle
nuances that make each chocolate unique. The kinds of people who appreciate the differences and
nuances in wine are the same people who appreciate the differences and nuances in chocolate, Litton
says. For instance, the chocolate suited for Zinfandel melts slowly and consistently on the tongue
especially when enjoyed at room temperature. The 72% dark chocolate drop begins to slowly dissolve,
leaving a silky texture, and the gentle bittersweet flavors coat the tongue consistently. The chocolates
natural tannins have a drying effect and an authentic natural tasteideally suited for Zinfandel.
Wine Lovers Chocolate couldnt be more aptly suited to wine enthusiasts and offers a unique pairing
experience for all who enjoy the way gourmet, artisan chocolate interacts with classic varietals of wine.

A Historical Site
Founded in 1972, Firestone was the first major estate winery established in this pastoral Central
Coast AVA. Over the past 40 years it has evolved into one of the regions most popular and successful
producers thanks to a portfolio of wines that offer serious quality at reasonable prices.
Estate Vineyards in the Santa Ynez Valley

Although not a household name, the Santa Ynez Valley actually has the greatest concentration of
wineries in Santa Barbara County. Prior to Prohibition, the valley had roughly 5,000 acres under vine.
It took until nearly four decades after repeal for commercial viticulture to reestablish itself. Santa Ynez
Valley was granted AVA (American Viticultural Area) status in 1983 and today boasts more than
7,500 acres devoted to vines.
Los Olivos Charm

Open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
5017 Zaca Station Road, Los Olivos, CA 93441
(805) 688-3940 | www.firestonewine.com
22
The Firestone estate is situated near the charming little town of Los Olivos, two hours north of Los
Angeles and five hours south of San Francisco. Los Olivos is known for its old west feel, fine
restaurants and homey lodgings. The local vibe is placid, casual and peaceful. The surrounding
countryside is typical of rural California with rolling hills that morph seasonally from summer gold to
winter green.
The Local Terroir

The viticultural highlight of Firestone is its 340 acres of estate
vineyards set along a series of mesas composed of sandy loam with
rocky sub-soils. These well-draining soils minimize vine vigor, which
leads to great concentration, accuracy, balance and structure in all of
the wines.
The combination of a long growing season and low-nutrient soils
allows the estate to cultivate an astonishing range of wines. Firestones
reds include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, Cabernet Franc,
Syrah and Pinot Noir from the Sta. Rita Hills. The whites consist of
Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling and Gewrztraminer.
Firestone Tours
In addition to its featured and reserve tasting options, Firestone is
one of the few wineries that offers a comprehensive and
complimentary public tour, running daily at 11:15 a.m., 1:15 p.m.
and 3:15 p.m. After the 30-minute in-depth tour, guests can picnic
outside and view the estate vineyards, which have been planted on a
series of mesas.
Reservations at Firestone
To make reservations or to get more information, visit
www.firestonewine.com or call (805) 688-3940. Firestone Vineyard is
located at 5017 Zaca Station Road in Los Olivos, just a few miles east
of Highway 101 at the southern end of the Foxen Canyon Wine Trail.
Experiences at Firestone
Firestone also boasts one of the most popular tasting rooms in
Santa Barbara County. The lovely visitors center has an expansive
island bar backed by a large picture windows that looks out on the
vines. For special private events, Firestone has a handful of indoor
and outdoor areas suitable for weddings, receptions, private parties,
corporate gatherings, birthdays or anniversaries.

Visit Eberle Winery

Enjoy complimentary tasting and cave tours. Cave tours begin at
10:30 a.m. and run every half hour, all day long.
Indulge in a gourmet picnic lunch overlooking the vines on the scenic
deck. Lunches can be ordered in advance via phone or email.
EBERLE WINERY
VIP Tasting
One of the best ways to explore Eberle wines is through a private
tasting in the caves VIP Room. This gorgeous cove in the cave is the
perfect place for an educational tasting that includes a selection of
cheese paired with wine. The host assigned to the tasting is well versed
in the wine world and can answer questions regarding the wines,
winemaking techniques, and even how and where where the grapes are
grown. VIP tastings are offered for up to 10 people at $35 per person,
and must be reserved in advance.
Team Spirit Soars

The team at Eberle Winery is ecstatic to have Gary Eberle and his wife, Marcy, back
running the business. Gary founded Eberle Winery in 1983 and grew the winery from the
ground up to produce 27,000 cases annually. Part of this growth included the addition of
partners, leaving Gary without a majority control over the winery he founded. The loss of
control when partners decided to take over managing the winery was a shock. It took Gary
and Marcy 17 months to regain a majority control position. They now have a 83.6% share,
giving the existing team a sense of security for the future of the winery.
With a renewed determination to develop the property and wine to their utmost
potential, the Eberles have a "back to business" approach as they begin this new chapter.
Everyone is working together with the common goal of producing award winning wines
and offering guests an incredible experience.
It isn't just the staff at Eberle that is happy about the control of the winery being
restored. According to Gary, "Everyone seems to be happier now that we are back. I was
overwhelmed by the number of customers, club members, wholesalers and industry
partners who have reached out with a show of support and congratulations. People are
stopping by the winery, phoning, emailing and utilizing social media to let us know they
are happy with the outcome."
Eberle Welcomes a New Winemaking Team

24
One of the first changes was to hire Chris Eberle as Winemaker. Chris, no relation to
Gary, worked at Eberle Winery from 2006 to 2009 as Assistant Winemaker. His experience
in six countries over the past fifteen vintages, in addition to his easy going attitude and
team spirit, is what prompted Gary to lour Chris back from Howard Park in Australia.
"From the vineyards to the caves to Gary and Marcy and the crew, this is like coming
home. I always knew I'd be back", stated Chris. With his previous experience at Eberle, he
hit the ground running.
Nick Compton, a winery team member for over two years, has been promoted to
Assistant Winemaker. With these changes the Eberle team is complete with talented and
motivated individuals.
Hospitality is a Top Priority

The winery has always been known for complimentary wine
tasting, educational cave tours, winemaker dinners in the
underground Wild Boar room, private VIP tastings, intimate club
events, weddings and spur-of-the-moment barbeques. The spacious
patio area, overlooking the vineyard, is open for guests to enjoy a
picnic lunch or to just sit and relax with a glass of wine. For those
who like to linger, the winery's bocce courts are available at no
charge.
The commitment to making guest experiences highly memorable
has led the Eberles to expand the hospitality areas. In the coming
months, many projects to enhance the hospitality areas will be
launched.
The Awards Keep Rolling In

Vintage after vintage, the
Eberle wines win top accolades.
Recently, the 2013 Sangiovese
was awarded "Best Sangiovese" at
the San Diego Wine
Competition,"Best Sangiovese" at
the San Francisco International
Wine Competition and "Best of
Class" at the West Coast Wine
Competition. The 2012 Barbera
is also racking up several "bests" including Best of Show"at the

Central Coast Wine Competition, Best of Show Red at the CalExpo
Commerical Wine Awards and Best of Class at the Pacific Rim Wine
Competition.
Over the years, Gary has also received a number of awards and
recognition for his dedication to the wine community. This year, the
California State Fair Honored Gary with the 2015 Wine Lifetime
Achievement Award. This award recognizes an individual or family
who are pioneers in the wine industry based on their lifetime
contributions to the California wine industry.

Perfect Pairs
BY MELISSA VOGT
LE VIGNE WINERY
2012 Le Vigne Tannat Paired with
Roasted Pork Leg
It doesnt get any better than pairing an award-winning wine with
a well-cooked meal. Le Vigne Winerys 2012 Tannat, which received a
Gold medal and Best of Class award at both the Central Coast Wine
Competition and the Cal Expo Commercial Wine Awards, is the
perfect wine to pair with a hearty roasted pork leg.
Marinated for several days in a variety of tantalizing spices and
Le Vignes 2012 Tannat, then slow-cooked for roughly five hours, this
roasted pork leg proves to be one of the most flavorful pieces of meat
you will ever eat. The rich, luscious flavors of this hearty wine seep
deep into the pork leg, making it juicy and tender after roasting.
The Tannat, which is full of rich flavors of baked cherry rhubarb
pie and cinnamon with subtle notes of clove, fennel seed, vanilla and
lingonberry, pairs exceptionally well with the range of spices used to
prepare this pork leg. The allspice and juniper berries used in the
marinade really grab a hold of those baking spice notes in the wine;
the orange zest brings a bit of brightness and levity to the wine, and
the pungency of garlic and peppercorns brings a touch of earthy
spiciness to the palate.
Of course, the American oak used to age the wine also does
wonders with the flavors of the roasted pork leg; the oak
complements the smoky characteristics from the roasting, and the
wines vanilla and clove notes heighten the synergy of spices in which
the pork was marinated. This delicious roasted pork leg is best served
alongside Le Vigne Winerys 2012 Tannat, and is most certainly an
excellent pairing as we approach autumn.
Itching for a taste of Le Vigne Winerys Tannat, or any one of their
other fabulous wines? Visit the winery in Paso Robles at 5115 Buena
Vista Drive. The tasting room is open Sunday through Thursday
from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Friday through Saturday from
11:00 a.m. to 6:00p.m. Offering wine tasting, cheese and chocolate
pairings, as well as tours, Le Vigne Winery has just the right
experience for every guest.
If youre looking for something more than just your average wine
tasting, consider heading to Le Vigne Winery during Paso Robles
Harvest Wine Weekend. Hosted on October 16-18, Harvest Wine
Weekend brings locals and tourist together for a wide array of
festivities. Le Vigne Winery will be celebrating in style, so be sure to
visit www.levignewinery.com for more details as the event weekend

Mamas Meatball:
Fine Italian Restaurant
and Catering in San Luis Obispo
Ask locals or somebody in the restaurant businessa bartender, a
waiter, even a bus boywhat they think of Mamas Meatball in San
Luis Obispo and their eyes roll towards the heavens as they breathe a
deep sigh; that is how good Mamas Meatball is. Set in a small
courtyard off of one of the towns main streets in a place called the
Old Creamery, Mamas Meatball is actually divided in two. On the
right is the takeout where people line up to get their orders of
meatballs and more. To the left, fronted by a huge-trunked tree and a
water fountain, is the intimate restaurant with its mural of the
Mediterranean across the back.
Meatballs aside, the restaurant, under owner and chef Nicola
Allegretta, offers a wide range of authentic Italian dishes. Among
them are half a dozen soups, a long list of salads (including grilled
salmon and a refreshing pear and gorgonzola), some wonderful
antipasto choices, both hot and cold paninis (including, of course,
one made with meatballs) and plenty of pasta dishesthe Ravioli di
Pollo all Vodka, homemade ravioli filled with chicken and served in a
vodka sauce, cannot go unmentioned. There is also a heady selection
of meat and fish dishes as well as any number of traditional and
specialty pizzas, and some far too-tempting desserts.
For a visit to the most authentic fine Italian restaurant in town,
head to Mamas Meatball, located in the Old Creamery plaza at 570
Higuera Street in San Luis Obispo.

ts no wonder the people here

call it SLO. No one is in any hurry
in the cafs or on the sidewalks, and
certainly no one is in any rush to
leave. Strangers are genuinely
friendly, always ready to talk about
their favorite hiking trail or
barbecue joint, or to point the way
to the winery with the best Pinot
Noir. Its all part of the SLO life, that
combination of good stuff that
makes visiting here so nourishing to
the soul.
San Luis Obispos unusual natural
beauty, along with its gentle climate,

first attracted the Spanish padres to
the area in the 1700s. In 1772 they
built the fifth of Californias 21
missions here, on the banks of San
Luis Creek, and named it Mission
San Luis Obispo de Tolosa. Today,
many consider this the most beautiful of the Spanish missions.
More than 200 wineries produce

critically acclaimed vintages in
Paso Robles, Edna Valley and
Arroyo Grande Valley. Visitors can
head out along the gorgeous
country roads to sip their way
through the vineyards.

Good to Know Before

Heading to the Wineries
BY CHARLES NEAVE
For the most part, going wine
tasting is about the easiest thing in
the world, especially in California
where wineries and tasting rooms
abound. Mostly, wine tasting is a
matter of doing a little research and
planning your day. Here are some
tips that have proven to be helpful
and are designed to help make the
sensory adventure of wine tasting all
the more enjoyable.
Before you start off, pack a few
essentials. Water (plenty of water)
and something to snack on
crackers or a baguette. Many
wineries have picnic areas and there
are plenty of delis and bakeries that
can make up a lunch for you, or
make your own.
Be sure to nibble during the day and
make time for lunch. Two tips: drink at
least twice as much water as you do
wine, and remember that you dont
have to drink everything poured
into your glass.
Dont be afraid to ask questions. Time
again I have heard knowledgeable
winery workers say that there is no
such thing as a stupid question, and
they mean that.
You can drink what you want, in the order
you want. If you like reds, say so; if
you dont like sweet wines, speak
up. But the idea of starting with
whites, then going on to reds and
then sweet wines is a good guide.
If there is a particular wine you want to

try and it is not on the list, ask. Most
tasting rooms are happy to pour a
little if you show enthusiasm.
Look for tasting rooms in towns. Many

of these are cooperative tasting
rooms, where in one place you
might find wines from a dozen or
more small-to-medium premium
producers.

LAETITIA VINEYARD & WINERY

A Father and Son Winemaking Team
Laetitia Vineyard & Winery, located in Southern San Luis Obispo County, specializes in producing
Mthode Champenoise sparkling wines, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The wine is made from
sustainably farmed fruit grown on the estate vineyard overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
The wines at Laetitia are crafted by a father and son team, Dave and Eric Hickey, who have worked
at the estate winery since the mid to late 1980s when the property, then known as Maison Deutz, was
owned by the previous owners from France.
Both father and son have extensive winemaking training from French traditionalists and travelled to
France to acquire deeper understanding of the styles and techniques of some of the top producers.
With a great appreciation for the estate fruit, the winemaking team works closely with Laetitia's VP of
Vineyard Operations, Lino Bozzano. The estate wine is produced with a balance of Old World tradition
and cutting-edge New World techniques.
Coquard Presses
The winery has the only two Coquard grape
presses in North Americaequipment key to
making high quality sparkling wine. Dave states,
Consistently, the juice coming out of our Coquard
presses was cleaner and more gently pressed,
resulting in less of the harsh characters brought
about by excess pressing of the stems, skins and
seeds. It was at this point that we decided moving
forward, all sparkling wine fruit was only to be
pressed in our Coquard presses.
Dave Hickey, Vice President of Production and Sparkling Winemaker

Dave's fascination with sparkling wine production began when he was hired for construction and
clean-up at Maison Deutz. Due to his passion and willingness to learn, it wasn't long before the
winemaker invited him to assist with the production of sparkling wine and oversee winery system
operations. Latetitia's owners promoted Dave to Sparkling Winemaker when they acquired the winery
in 1999. He has since been promoted to Vice President of Production. Utilizing his experience of
sparkling wine production techniques and his understanding of the estate fruit that he has worked with
for 30 years, Dave delivers a line of sparkling wine produced in the traditional Mthode Champenoise.
Eric Hickey, President and Head Winemaker

Eric began his career, working in the cellar with his father, when he was just 16 years old. As soon
as he graduated high school, he joined the winemaking team full-time and learned everything he could
from hands-on experience. He augmented the hands-on learning by participating in an extension
program at U.C. Davis and exploring several wine regions in France.
Eric describes his style as "being built upon finding balance, finesse and the essence of the fruit." His
wines are true to the character of the estate grapes. He has gained industry respect for his knowledge
and community spirit. As a sustainable vineyard and winery, we are always looking for ways to
contribute to the sustainability of our community, Eric says. Weve made many donations and
contributions in the past, and we are very excited to give proactively through this new bottling of our
Nadia Quattro. One dollar per bottle will be donated to the SLO Chapters of Habitat for Humanity
and Special Olympics.

Peachy Canyon Winery
Offers Award-Winning Wines

understated, historic schoolhouse-turned-tasting room, serving up
wines that are anything but understated. This is the tasting room for
Peachy Canyon Winery, recently listed in the top 101 Wineries in
America for the second year in a row by The Daily Meals panel of
accomplished chefs, wine critics, industry experts and sommeliers.

classic big n bold entries into the category, they also produce
elegant, lighter Zinfandels that showcase the grape in an entirely

Zinfandel wines have accumulated over forty 90-point-plus scores
from well established critics like Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator,
San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition and Stephen Tanzer.

Bordeaux-style and specialty red blend wines. Para Siempre

Francisco Wine Competition, as well as 91 points from Wine
Enthusiast. Theres also Ms. Behavea rich, multi-award winning
Malbecand two Cabernet Sauvignons, including an especially
expressive 36-month in-barrel Old Schoolhouse Reserve Cab. Each
of these wines shows the dedication to quality found in Peachys
family-led and surprisingly small winery team.
Speaking of, newly appointed Peachy Canyon Winemaker
Robert Henson brings 20 years of wine industry experience to this
team. Henson brings a winemaking philosophy that hinges on

Wine Tasting in Santa Barbara County
A Spirit and Passion for Winemaking
Bien Nacido Vineyard | Photograph by Jeremy Ball
n the southern end of the Central Coast appellation, lies Santa Barbara Countys historic
wine growing region. The first vineyard production in these rolling coastal hills dates
back to 1782, when Junipero Serra planted vines on Mission land. About a hundred years later,
there was 260 acres of luscious vineyards and seventeen winemakers in Santa Barbara
County. Sadly, the Prohibition Era destroyed many of these historic vineyard sites and mostly
put an end to winemaking in the regionas was the case in many of the beautiful winegrowing regions across the state. With that being said, the spirit and passion for winemaking
never left Santa Barbara County, and this wine growing region is alive and well today. Talented
winemakers are producing outstanding and pure terroir driven wines from the five American
Viticultural Areas (AVAs), planted mostly to Burgundian, Rhne and Bordeaux grape varieties.
Although the movie Sideways is said to have put San Barbara Countys wine growing
region on the map in 2004, especially the Santa Maria Valley AVA, it is the high quality of the
wine across the county that has continued to uphold this bountiful regions reputation.
Sprawling vineyards and gently rolling hills create a picturesque scene for visitors and locals
alike, who visit the many wineries, tasting rooms and wine bars in the area. In the five AVAs,
wine tasters will find a nice range of wine styles amongst the Burgundian, Rhne and
Bordeaux varietals that are produced.
In the more northern region, cool climate Burgundian varietals reign, such as Pinot Noir
and Chardonnay, due to the maritime influence. This ensures a long temperate growing
season which the Burgundian varietals crave. With ample amount of sunlight, the grapes ripen
very slowlyperfect for producing terroir driven wines with pure varietal characteristics. In
the southern region, there is more of a diurnal shift with warmer nights and cooler days. This
area sees less fog and has different soil types than what is found closer to the coast. The
Bordeaux and Rhne varieties flourish in this warmer climate and the sandy soils with limestone and chalk impart a wonderfully desirable minerality in the wines.
The wineries in Santa Barbara County boast a concentration of incredibly passionate and
talented winemakers; join them year round at their many events, celebrations and festivals, as
well as in their tasting rooms.

New Release:
2013 Roasted Slope

Rhne Inspired
Situated along Foxen Canyon Road in Los Olivos, Andrew Murray Vineyards has had a love affair with
Rhne varietals for over 25 years, releasing their first vintage in 1990. Inspired in the late 1980s while
traveling through Frances Rhne Valley, winemaker Andrew Murray was eager to blend the classic and
the modern. With the belief that great wine starts at the root of the vine, Murrays winemaking philosophy
is summarized in three words: passion, evolution and wisdom. Named Tastemaker of the Year by Food
and Wine Magazine, Murray is committed to his craft, spreading the Rhne gospel with unfaltering
energy and passion.
Producing four distinct families of handcrafted Santa Barbara wines, each family has a unique place
in the vineyards wine portfolio.
Tous Les Jours and Blend Wines

The vineyards everyday and easy-drinking Syrah, named one of the best wines under $20 by
Food & Wine Magazine, is blended to produce a soft, smooth Syrah full of ripe berry aromas and flavors.
Demonstrating that sometimes the whole is greater than the sum of its part, Esperance, a blend of
Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre is fashioned in the style of the great reds of Gigondas and
Chateauneuf-du-Pape of France. Enchante is a white blend of Rousanne and Grenache Blanc grapes,
inspired by the great whites of the Southern Rhne Valley.
Varietal Wines and Single Vineyard Wines

Their Reserve Syrah is a red wine blended from no less than six blocksdelivering the earthy, spicy
and wonderfully fruity side of Syrah, while the Viognier showcases the exotic, floral and fruity side of
Viognier. The Grenache is smooth and irresistible.
Crafting several single-vineyard red wines from Alisos Vineyard, Thompson Vineyard, Watch Hill
Vineyard and Stolpman Vineyard, these distinctive wines are designed to offer a different flavor profile,
expressing the unique terroir or microclimate of neighboring vineyards not found in the winerys own
appellation.
Tasting Room Atmosphere

Offering an intimate wine country experience, Andrew Murray invites guests to lounge and savor at
two gorgeous tasting rooms: the newly remodeled Winery & Visitors Center, located at the entrance of the
Foxen Canyon Wine Trail, as well as their tasting room in downtown Los Olivos. At their winery, grassy
picnic grounds and ancient oaks offer the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine outside on their sunny
terrace, with live music and food trucks on most weekends.
>> BY RACHEL HOMMEL
Roasted Slope is back! A classic fan favorite,

this wine is a result of an unexpected, but
lucrative mistake. When the vineyard first
started out in 1990, Murray had only purchased
Viognier. Turns out the Viognier grapes were
actually Syrah with a lot of Viognier mixed in.
While the French have been co-fermenting
Viognier and Syrah for years, the mistake turned
into an instant classic, changing the course of
Murrays winemaking careerand still the most
sought after wine each vintage.

A Walk Around Tasting is a

combination of a tour and a tasting.
Your host brings along several
bottles of wine on your tour, and
may take you to a garden area of
the winery to pour the first round.
Then you move to another place
within the winery to sample the
next wine. This experience
continues until all the wines are
tasted.
Barrel Tasting
Another popular tasting experience that can be part of a tour or a

Walk Around is a Barrel Tasting.
Your guide takes a wine thief, a
special siphon placed into a hole in
the top of a barrel to extract tasting
samples of a maturing wine. The
sample allows you to taste what the
wine is like in the middle of developing its full potential.
Why make an appointment?
A Sit Down Tasting usually

requires an appointment, and there
may be a slightly higher fee than a
wine bar fee. Seated in an elegant
room, you are poured several wines
by your winery host. Expect your
host to describe the unique characteristics of each wine and how it
was made.
Walk Around Tasting
The most common tasting experience is a Wine Bar Tasting. You

step up to the bar where typically a
list of wines being poured is
displayed. Expect to pay a tasting
fee between $10-$40. Some tasting
bars will offer you the option to
taste a library or reserve wine.
Exercising this option increases the
fee, but will allow you to taste very
unique, old or rare wines.
Sit Down Tasting
Wine Bar Tasting
Some wineries are so small that

they need to know when you are
coming so someone will be there
to greet you. Others have sit-down
tastings that start and end at
specific times. Its always a good
idea to schedule your appointments well in advance.

Costa de Oro Tasting Room & Marketplace
Costa de Oro Tasting Room & Marketplace is located right off of
Highway 101 in Santa Maria. This site pays tribute to the history
behind Costa De Oroit was the strawberry stand for Gold Coast
Farms, the parent company of Costa De Oro, which has been farming
Santa Maria since 1978. Gold Coast Vineyard was planted to 20 acres
of Pinot Noir and 10 acres of Chardonnay in 1989, and these grapes
were sold to the areas best wineriesincluding Au Bon Climat. Gary
Burk, Costa de Oro Co-Owner and Winemaker, was fortunate to
work in the winery with Jim Clendenen from 1994-2002, and during
this time he began to make his own wine. Gary started with just one
barrel of Chardonnay and one barrel of Pinot Noir.
Today, Costa de Oro produces over 6000 cases featuring
Chardonnay & Pinot Noir from the estate Gold Coast Vineyard.
The best place to experience the wines is at the Tasting Room and
Marketplace, where guests can taste five wines for only $10. In
addition to regular tasting room hours (normally 11:00 a.m. to 6:00
p.m. daily), each Friday evening, Costa de Oro hosts Friday Night
Wine Downs featuring live music from local musicians and $12
dinner plates prepared by Chef Rick! Another facet to the Costa de
Oro portfolio is their Wine on Tap. Kegged wine, wine stored and
shipped inside five gallon kegs instead of bottles, has been gaining
popularity throughout the past several years. Costa de Oro started
kegging wine for high-end accounts, like Roys Hawaii. Now these
wines, a white and a red are available in the tasting room by the glass
and by the growler (these can be refilled). Costa de Oro Wine Club
members receive discounts on keg wines, bottled wines and
complimentary tastings.

Martian Ranch is the creation of Massachusetts native Nan

Helgeland, who found her inspiration in the world-class vineyards
and wines of Santa Barbara County. After years of searching for the
perfect property, she purchased this 102-acre parcel on Alisos
Canyon Road in 2007, and named it Martian Ranchthe combined
nickname of her two adult sons: Martin and Ian.
Today, Martian Ranch & Vineyard is a biodynamically farmed
estate winery, with twenty acres of vines planted to ten different
grape varieties, each perfectly suited to the climate of the ranch.
The vineyards were planted in 2008 under the guidance of
biodynamic consultant Philippe Armenier, with the first estate
vintage in 2011. Martian Ranch is known for carefully farmed,
vibrant and lower-alcohol wines, with Philippe now at the helm as
Winemaker. Estate varieties are Albario, Grenache Blanc, Viognier,
Clairette, Gamay Noir, Mourvdre, Grenache Noir, Syrah, Cabernet
Franc and Tempranilloabout two acres planted of each.
Biodynamics, which takes organic farming to the next level,
strives to create a balanced ecosystem while focusing on the health
and fertility of the soil. Lunar, solar and cosmic rhythms are
followed for all farming practices, which create an optimum
environment for the vines. Each part of the growing process
revolves around four elements: root, leaf, flower and fruit. Together,
these elements create the highest expression of harvest. While these
farming methods may be more labor intensive, the quality shows in
each bottle, carefully crafted between the earth and the cosmos.
The tasting room opened in October 2014 and offers a wide
selection of estate wines. Each wine is named after a celestial
notion, from the Stellar Viognier to Local Group Grenache Noir and
Mothership Grenache Blanc. Tours of the vineyard are available on
weekends, with reservations recommended.
Martian Ranch & Vineyard is featured in the New York Times,
SF Chronicle and Jon Bonns book, The New California Wine.
Experimental and eclectic, the estate is dedicated to the journey,
from sky to ground to grape to barrel to bottle and straight into
your glass.
Located on Alisos Canyon Road between US 101 and Foxen
Canyon Road, look out for the alien up ahead! Visit Nan and crew
at the tasting room Wednesday through Sunday from 11:00 a.m to
5:00 p.m.

Santa Barbara

County. This family-owned winery has been producing 1estate-grown,
vineyard designate wines since 1987. It is for this reason that you get a
true expression of the land. I especially enjoy the agricultural part of the
winemaking process because that is what usually determines the character
of the final wine product, says Winemaker Denise Shurtleff. Every block
of grapes and each lot of wine has a life, a personality of its own, and
evaluating the different stages of the wine and the decisions that are made 135
during the winemaking process are always unique to each vintage, she
adds. Cambria is best known for their Chardonnay, producing five
different iterations, of which their Katherines Vineyard has long been one
of the standards in Santa Barbara. There are seven versions of Pinot Noir
produced at Cambria and they also make small amounts

Coquelicot Estate Vineyard:
A Blend of Inspiration, Kindness and Fine Wine
Coquelicot, pronounced ko-klee-ko,
Estate Vineyard resides in the heart of the
Santa Ynez Valley near Solvang just south of
the historic Mission Santa Ines. The
vineyards miraculous setting is comprised of
58 acres of organically farmed grapes with
vines that were originally planted in 1999.
Bernard Rosenson, owner of the renowned
Sky Room in Long Beach, acquired the Estate
Vineyard in 2005 and his quest for making
fine wine began. Rosenson is known for his
reverent passion for living life and his
mission to inspire, be kind and tread lightly
shines bright as Coquelicots limited
production wines are made with tenderness
and care, and considered a true celebration
of life. In fact, the name Coquelicot
embraces Rosensons philosophy as it is also
the French name of a striking red poppy
flower that grows in the French
countrysidethis beautiful flower graces
Coquelicot wine bottles.
Coquelicot wines can be found at their
gorgeous downtown Los Olivos tasting
room. Rosenson took on the task of

remodeling one of the towns oldest buildings
dating back to 1886. The building was once
a blacksmith shop, but today it is the perfect
setting to enjoy Coquelicots fine wines, and
the backyard offers a place for a game of
bocce ball or a picnic lunch. You can even
reserve the backyard for a private event or
catered dinner party. Stop on by for a taste of
an Estate Sangiovese, Riesling, Sauvignon
Blanc, Syrah and more.
Rosenson implemented sustainable and
organic farming protocols in 2007 and as
part of these practices Coquelicot now holds
an annual event taking place at the beginning
of each June called The Ladybug Release
Party. This unique event involves releasing
thousands of ladybugs into their vineyards.
These ladybugs contribute to the production
of healthy grapes without the need for
chemical pesticides. Visit the tasting room at
2884 Grand Avenue in Los Olivos. For more

Quality California Roots at Qup Winery
Qup Winery reflects the California spirit as founder Robert Neil
Lindquist (Bob) moved to California with his family when he was
young and since then, has embraced everything Californian from the
music scene to becoming a devoted Dodger fan.
In 1975, Bobs pursuit for a career in the wine industry took flight.
It wasnt long until he knew he was destined to be a part of Santa
Barbaras Wine Country and in 1979, it became a reality. His path led
him to Zaca Mesa where he learned the art of winemaking under Jim
Clendenen and in 1982, Qup was born via Chardonnay, Syrah and
Ros of Pinot Noir.
As the years progressed Bobs passion for Syrah and other Rhne
varieties outshined the rest, but he has kept up with the crafting of
his exceptionally popular Chardonnay.
Dedication to Biodynamic Practices

In 2002, Bob and his wife, Louisa Sawyer Lindquist who is also a
devoted winemaker, found their opportunity to expand into San Luis
Obispo Wine Country with the purchase of eighty acres in Edna
Valley. From day one, the couple was committed to sustainable
farming and embarked on a journey of employing biodynamic
practices that treat the vineyard as a self-contained, living organism.
In 2005, the Sawyer Lindquist Vineyard was planted with Pinot
Noir, Marsanne, Syrah, Grenache, Tempranillo and Albario, and in
2008, yielded its first productive crop. In 2009, the vineyard earned

Bob named his winery after the Chumash Native American word
for California poppy to honor the indigenous people of the Central
Coast and Channel Islands. Bob decided to add an accent to the final
syllable to designate the pronunciation (kyoo-pay') as several sounds
of the Chumash language have been obscured with time.
Where to Taste the Wines

Qup specializes in Rhne-style wines, working with grapes
sourced primarily from Bien Nacido Vineyard in Santa Maria, Sawyer
Lindquist Vineyard in Edna Valley and Ibarra-Young Vineyard in Los
Olivos. Their collection can be tasted at the Qup tasting room,
located in picturesque downtown Los Olivos at 2963 Grand Avenue.
They offer two tasting flights to choose from, a Classic and a Reserve,

Byrons Genial Tasting Room
BY DON SONDERLING
Intimate, warm, cozy, casual and relaxedthese are the sensations

that comes to mind as you enter the Byron tasting room; its exterior is
reminiscent of quintessential small town America and you feel the
homey atmosphere. Stepping up to the bar, facing a wall of wine,
guests are greeted by one of Byrons genial tasting room attendants.
The day I visited, Lucio was pouring. His enthusiasm and passion
was immediately evident, as he greeted us with a big smile, walking
us through the tasting flight. His knowledge of the wines, grapes and
terroir was boundless, if not to say infectious.
Byron has built a reputation on their award-winning selections of
single vineyard, small lot artisan Pinot Noirseach reflecting its
specific vineyard. But dont let that dissuade you from their
Chardonnay, which is bright, crisp and fragrantthe perfect start
before delving into the Pinot Noir selections.
Jonathan Nagy, Byrons Winemaker, has created a portfolio of
boutique estate wines that amaze the pallet. Two separate tasting

Since 2008, Fontes and Phillips Winery has focused on creating a

portfolio of small-lot wines from world-class Santa Barbara County
vineyards. Alan Phillips and his wife Rochelle Fontes-Phillips bring
over thirty-five years of wine industry experience to their boutique,
family-owned winery. Alan graduated from UC Davis with a BS in
Enology and spent the first twenty years of his career working at
several wineries in Napa Valley, the Santa Cruz Mountains and Santa
Babrara, including consulting jobs in New Zealand, Germany, France,
Spain and Portugal. Rochelle developed her career in wine compliance
and accounting, and in 1998 they decided to move to Santa Ynez to
help Bill Foley launch Foley
Estates and Lincourt.
In 2008 they decided to start
their own winery to showcase the
distinct varietals and vineyards of
Santa Barbara and Sta. Rita Hills,
including Sierra Madre Vineyard,
La Encantada Vineyard and Camp
4 Vineyard. The Fontes and
Phillips portfolio includes less
than 1,500 cases of wine annually

Deep Sea Wines are a product of passion for the Conway Family,
whose love of Santa Barbara wine and coastal vineyards is celebrated
in every bottle of Deep Sea. The Conway Family calls Santa Barbara
home, and has always been inspired to produce wines that represent
the coastal influence and unique climate of the region. From this
place, inspiration has produced a variety of wines each speaking of
their origins. Their wines can be tasted at the Santa Barbara tasting
room, located on Stearns Wharf.
The tasting room offerings include the Deep Sea label featuring
wines made from the estate vineyard, as well as other coastal
vineyards. This brand appeals to the modern wine drinker, and
reflects the true passion of the Conways, the ocean and wine. Also
available are wines from the Conway label, which are region specific,
celebrating varieties best suited to their respective appellations. These
bottlings include Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, Chardonnay
from Santa Barbara and Pinot Noir from Sta. Rita Hills. This is an
elevated brand produced from outstanding lots, resulting in wines
of excellent quality, character and agability, explains Gillian Conway.
The Deep Sea tasting room has an experience for every type of
wine taster. Taking in the view of the Pacific Ocean while drinking
Central Coast wine is unbeatable! The wine menus consist of
different tasting options, including, White Only, Red Only and
mixed flights. Deep Sea also offers wine by the glass or bottle with
reasonable pricing. The tasting room hours are Monday through
Thursday from 12:00 to 8:00 p.m. and Friday through Sunday
12:00 to 9:00 p.m. The outdoor patio and deck is now heated and
open at night, for lounging and tasting. Another way to enjoy the
tasting room is to rent it out for private parties; they can accomodate
up to 49 guests. For more information, call (805) 618-1185.

SANTA BARBARA WINE COUNTRY

CYCLING TOURS
You are zooming through Santa Barbara wine countrythe sun
illuminates the surrounding vineyards causing shadows on the old
oak tress, the rolling hills are dotted with cattle and a few wispy
clouds hover in the blue sky. The warm breeze on your face causes
you to smile, and your cares and worries melt away. You stop midday for a wine country picnic full of gourmet food and great wine,
and its hard to believe life can be this wonderful. This is just a taste of
what Santa Barbara Wine Country Cycling Tours can offer since they
lead the way in premier, wine country bike tours.
Ride Like the Wind

Santa Barbara Wine Country Cycling Tours offer single day and
multi-day trips available for people of all skill levels, and though
cycling can seen daunting, its certainly not. Dont think Tour de
France, rather think gentle cycling and killer views all at your own
pace. Tour distances and difficulty can be modified to fit the abilities
of our guests, says owner Corey Evans. Therefore, youre not locked
into anything you dont want to do. This means a novice can enjoy a
gradual ride at a satisfying pace, and a hard-core cyclist can get the
burn they crave while getting the wine they want. The Santa Ynez
Valley is known for its gentle rolling hills of vineyards, long stretches
of road winding through farmland, and tucked away canyons and
vistas providing the perfect atmosphere for a ride.
Pedal to the Metal

All wine country daily bike tours begin in Solvang and include a
gourmet picnic lunch consisting of an artisanal cheese plate with
locally-sourced, seasonal, heirloom organic salad and fresh fruit
served in a picturesque vineyard, a bike and a helmet for your
protection. Tours include a professional tour guide, commemorative
62
water bottle and SAG vehicle support. For more advanced riders and
serious wine and bike enthusiasts, Santa Barbara Wine Country
Cycling also offers deluxe multi-day trips that feature longer biking
routes, luxurious overnight accommodations and fabulous wine
pairing dinners. We are happy to accommodate any food allergies or
restrictions, says Evans. Some of these packages include rides from
Carmel to Santa Barbara and Paso Robles to Santa Barbara, for an
authentic Central Coast wine experience.
Customized Experiences
Santa Barbara Wine Country Cycling Tours can also custom
design a bike tour through wine country to accommodate your
preferences. The point, of course, is to experience wine countrynot
from the speed of your car but to examine, up close, the beauty of the
surroundings that you cant see as you drive past. If you prefer to rent
a bike on your own without a preplanned path, both hybrid, alloy
and carbon road bikes are available for the day or for multiple days.
Before you know it, youll be peddling through Santa Barbaras
stunning vineyards, able to stop exactly when and where you want,
knowing that your bike is taken care of by professional riders so its
always in excellent shape. Or if riding is not your thing, they also
offer guided hikes for all levels that take in valley and ocean vistas. So
dont go it alone and miss the best of the Central Coastinstead, go
in style with Santa Barbara Wine Country Cycling Tours!
