Quality Wines All Under $25

at Wine Garage, Calistoga
by Jeffry Ross
The Skinny – The Wine Garage is all about the juice. It’s also about having fun –
like a kid in a candy store. The Wine Garage is, literally, a former gas station.
Todd, the wine buyer, travels far and wide to find top-shelf, affordably priced
wines. Inside, you’ll find more than 200 different labels neatly arranged in cases
on the floor and an engaging staff who are friendly, attentive and most impor-
tantly, they know their wines.
Buzz – Despite its funky space, the Wine Garage is a wine lover’s best friend.
Reminiscent of visiting your favorite record store (yes, kids, once upon a time,
that’s where you had to buy your music), the fun is going through all the cases
and finding something you’ve never heard of. All the wines have been test
driven by the staff, so, whatever you select, you won’t be disappointed.
Value – Ultimately, the Wine Garage is about value. It’s no secret that in Napa
Valley, it’s difficult to score a highly rated red for less than $65, but the Wine
Garage manages to do it all the time. The staff takes great pride hunting down
unusual and lesser-known, limited-production wines and passing their haggling
finesse on to us.
Ten-second summary – Nothing in this hip hideaway is more than $25 (with a
few under $15)! The Wine Garage is stocked with premium, small-lot wines
that you won’t find at BevMo, Trader Joe’s or your local wine store (plus, they do
a better job storing their wines at the correct temperature).
Best bets – In addition to all the labels the Wine Garage represents, they also
produce their own lip-smacking blends. My in-house favorites are: 2009 Joy
Ride White, 2008 Russian River Syrah, 2007 Napa Valley Cabernet, 2008
Chihuahua Cabernet and 2006 Hillside Cabernet.
Under-the-radar – Go old-school with half-gallon jugs filled while you wait using
their specifically designed service station nozzles. Not only are the wines deli-
cious (and affordable), the jug is crazy fun conversation at the table. It’s also a
cool gift.
Secrets – For the next few weeks, receive an additional ten percent off the
already low prices when you purchase six bottles. Twenty percent on a case.
Better yet, the Wine Garage has the BEST wine club in the valley – and they
ship just about everywhere.
Insider – If you’re a serious wino, get on the inside track for ultra exclusive deals
by hooking up with the Wine Garage on Twitter and Facebook (wine club
members get first crack to cream-of-the-crop finds).

Chardonnay, Mount Veeder ($32):
This is a classic Chardonnay, with aromas and flavors of baked apples,
baking spices, buttered toast and vanilla. Rich and complex in the
mouth, with a long, delicious finish.
2008 Napa Cellars Zinfandel, Napa Valley ($22): This Zin is spicy,
sassy and absolutely enjoyable! It’s what my wine-judging buddies

Wine Icon Jess Stonestreet Jackson Passes Away

Founder of Kendall-Jackson winery, industry visionary, thoroughbred owner
Jess Stonestreet Jackson, the wine visionary who popularized
Chardonnay in America in the early 1980s with his immediately-
successful Kendall-Jackson winery and then became a pioneering
architect of the ascendant American wine industry, died April 21 at his
Geyserville, home after a long and courageous battle with cancer. He
was 81.
A one-time longshoreman and police officer, who put himself
through University of California Berkeley's Boalt Hall law school,
Jackson became one of the best-known figures in American viticulture,
as Kendall-Jackson became the best-selling Chardonnay in America
for over two decades.
Raised in San Francisco during the Great Depression, Jackson
worked as a farmer, policeman and land-use lawyer. He started the
Kendall-Jackson wine business with the family’s 1974 purchase of an
80-acre pear and walnut orchard in Lakeport that he converted to a
vineyard. In 1982, he produced his first bottle of wine under the
Kendall-Jackson label. In 1983, the wine won the first double Plat-
inum Award ever presented by the American Wine Competition.
Kendall-Jackson Wine Estates remains today one of the most awarded
wineries in the United States.
Jackson's vision and outspoken manner often ran counter to
conventional industry practices. When he realized that the quality of
the French oak barrels used to age his wine was inconsistent, he
invested in his own mill in France to provide barrel staves, and
became a partner in a cooperage located in Missouri. He created his
own California distribution company to remain free of industry work, integrity, and uncompromising desire for quality and the long-
consolidation there. He was a leader in the sustainable farming move- term stewardship of the land.”

Sunday. LEVERONI ROAD NAPA ROAD
Throw in the ever-popular Wine and Song around the Plaza, which
will feature all varieties of jazz from cutting-edge to funk to piano to
old-time from 1:30 to 5 p.m. on Saturday, and a New Orleans Jazz
Brunch on Sunday (11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.), and Sonoma will be awash
in great music on the third weekend in May.
Among the most popular aspects of Sonoma Jazz +, for the past six
years, has been the Wine & Song series around the Sonoma Plaza. It
will of course return, and more details will come later as the event gets
closer. On Sunday – given the 4 p.m. start for the Gipsy Kings on the
main stage – Wine & Song will be from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. and
center on a New Orleans Brunch. Think of a transplant of Jackson
Square to the Plaza with fabulous food and the sound of a mellow
trumpet, among other things, across the room.
The Sonoma Jazz + Festival is pleased to recognize its new alliance
focused on programming with AEG Live (www.AEGLive.com), the
world’s second largest live entertainment, concert promotion and
touring company.
Sonoma Jazz + has also completed a new three-year presenting
rights agreement with Union Bank (www.UnionBank.com), a
founding sponsor of the event, which will result in the festival now
being known as Sonoma Jazz + Presented By Union Bank.
Finally, Sonoma Jazz + would especially like to thank the City of
Sonoma for its gracious support. Throughout the seven years of the
festival, the city has unfailingly worked to make the process of
presenting music in Sonoma a rewarding one for both the presenters
and the audiences.
Tickets are available at www.sonomajazz.org or 1-888-512-SHOW
(7469) from $60 to $100 inclusive of ticketing fees.

About Audubon Canyon Ranch
The mission of Audubon Canyon Ranch (ACR) is to protect the
natural resources of its sanctuaries while fostering an understanding
and appreciation of these environments. ACR educates children and
adults, promotes ecological literacy that is grounded in direct experi-
ence, and conducts research and restoration that advances conserva-
tion science.
ACR properties include the Cypress Grove Research Center on
Tomales Bay, the Bouverie Preserve in Glen Ellen, and the 1,000-acre
Martin Griffin Preserve in Stinson Beach, which is an important San
Francisco Bay Area Great Egret and Great Blue Heron nesting colony.
In 2009 ACR announced an agreement with Jim and Shirley Modini
to acquire the 1,725-acre Modini Ranch property, located in the Maya-
camas Mountains in Sonoma County.
ACR is an independent non-profit organization with 501(c)3
status. ACR is not affiliated with the National Audubon Society. ACR
programs are made possible thanks to the contribution of thousands
of hours of volunteer service, and donations from caring individuals,
foundations and businesses. For more information, call (415) 868-
9244, email acr@egret.org or visit www.egret.org

By the time May arrives in the Santa Cruz Mountains, the threat
of frost has, for the most part, theoretically abated. A big emphasis
on the “t-word,” as you never know in this ever-hanging world of
weather, whether you are falling on this side of “normal,” or that. It

reflective of what actually happens from year to year, instead of
what we hold in our fondly fuzzy memory banks.
