Our philosophy for wine and food pairings focuses on making small adjustments to prepared dishes in order to preserve or enhance the flavors of the wine. But don’t just take our word for it – come see for yourself! Settle in as you enjoy tasting top-tier Single Vineyard and Reserve red wines expertly paired with a variety of cuisines prepared by in-house wine and food expert, Chef Britny Maureze.

BOONT CORNERS FROM PENNYROYAL FARM
Janet Fletcher Why Cheese is My Wheelhouse BY LAURA NESS
Say Cheese! It’s almost time for the 17th annual California Artisan Cheese Festival, March 24-26 at the Sonoma County Event Center in Santa Rosa – an opportunity to meet cheesemakers, sample Sonoma County wine and beer, learn about local farms and dairies, and attend ArtisanCheeseFest2023 cheesemaking seminars. JANET FLETCHER
ROCKET’S ROBIOLA FROM BOXCARR HANDMADE CHEESE
Few people know cheese like cookbook author and expert, Janet Fletcher, of Planet Cheese, who just announced her 11th annual World Cheese Tour classes at Winston’s Café in WorldCheeseTour2023 Napa. We wanted to know the why of whey, and how she came to be a foremost authority on cheese.
Tell us how and why you became cheese-obsessed. As a food writer and cookbook author, I am always looking for the next food trend. In the late 1990s, I noticed that restaurants were starting to get more creative with the cheese course. In the past, you might get a cold wedge of tired Brie when you ordered cheese in a restaurant. But a few ambitious restaurants were starting to serve better cheeses with housemade bread or interesting condiments. I thought I might do a little book on these new ideas for serving cheese that would make it more appealing to people who weren’t accustomed to having a cheese course. My book, The Cheese Course, was published in 2000. At the time I was on the food staff at the San Francisco Chronicle and they asked me to start writing a weekly cheese column. And that was the slippery slope that led to my deep dive into cheese, if I can mix metaphors.

Who came up with the name “Planet Cheese?” I did. Maybe in the shower. I have no recollection of how or when, to be honest. But I still like it because it suggests that cheese is an enormous world of adventure and discovery, which is how I feel about it. Planet Cheese is going on nine years old, and I have posted once a week without fail. There’s always something cheesy to write about, whether it’s a new cheese, a recipe, an event or an important issue.
What’s your first memory of cheese? Not good. Unless guests were coming, the only “cheese” we had in my childhood home was Velveeta. And there’s a reason I put that in quotes. When guests came, my mother upgraded to Cracker Barrel.
What’s the most unusual animal from which you’ve had cheese? I guess it would be yak. Some people who had been working in rural Tibet brought yak cheese to a cheese event I attended in Wisconsin a few years ago. It was pretty nasty, although I don’t think it has to be.
What are some of the best new cheeses you tried in 2022 and how did you discover them? Typically, I discover cheeses when I spot them in a store for the first time, or realize that I’ve been looking at that cheese for a long time and never tried it. Sometimes cheesemakers send me new items, but mostly I stumble on them or hear about them from distributors. I adore all 10 cheeses I wrote about in a recent post (2022Unforgettables), like Boont Corners from Pennyroyal Farm (goat’s and sheep’s milk from Anderson Valley). This aged raw milk wheel has a natural rind, an aroma of damp cave, roasted nuts and artichoke, and a sturdy texture that finishes creamy. However, most aren’t “new” in the sense of recently created. Some are just relatively new imports, like Rispens (a sheep Gouda), Ur-Eiche (a raw cow’s milk cheese from Switzerland) and Fleur Soleil (an herb-coated goat cheese from France). Others are relatively new on the West Coast, like Rocket’s Robiola from Boxcarr Handmade Cheese in North Carolina.
What cheese will you absolutely never eat again? Velveeta. At least not knowingly.
It seems like fondues and raclettes are making a comeback. Will this stay on trend? Who doesn’t love melted cheese? I had a post in Planet Cheese a couple of years ago sharing some fondue tips from Joe Salonia, a New Yorker who is a past Fonduel champion. Fonduel is a goofy competition among people in the cheese trade. Joe is a sales rep for a Swiss cheese consortium so he knows fondue. I shared his recipe and tips in Planet Cheese.

World Cheese Tour 2023 – 11th Season! The delightful Winston’s Café in Napa will be the host for these seated tastings, each one devoted to a different theme. Tuesday, March 14 – Let’s Get High! – For centuries, cheesemakers have led their herds and flocks into the mountains to take advantage of pure water, fresh grass and cool air. The resulting wheels—whether from the Alps, the Pyrenees, Spain’s Picos de Europa or our own Appalachian Mountains—are among the world’s finest. Experience seven exceptional examples of mountain cheesemaking in this tasting. Tuesday, April 18 – Aged to Perfection – Some of the world’s best cheeses are made in one place and matured in another. In this tasting, sample seven cheeses matured by internationally renowned experts in the art of affinage, or cheese aging. Their names on a cheese are practially a guarantee of high quality. Tuesday, May 16 – New Arrivals from Europe – You might think every cheese that can be invented has been invented, but no. Exciting new creations are coming from Europe as importers compete to find fresh gems for their list. This evening you’ll taste seven of the recent arrivals Janet is most enthusiastic about. Tuesday, June 13 – History of Cheese in Seven Slices – Come for an edifying and tasty journey through five centuries of cheese. In this admittedly quirky recap of history, you’ll taste seven superb cheeses with lasting significance, cheeses that paved the way for those yet to come. Tuesday, July 11 – Deep Dive into Cheese Rinds – Who knew there were so many rind types? You will after this tasting, and you’ll understand how the rind got there and what it indicates about the cheese inside. Bloomy rinds, washed rinds, natural rinds and more … taste seven of various types so you can learn the critical role played by the rind. Tuesday, August 8 – Cheese & Beer 101 – IPAs, Belgian ales, wheat beers, porters — every beer has its cheesy soul mates. In this class you’ll taste seven popular craft brew styles with the cheeses that flatter them best. You’ll also master some pairing strategies so you can continue the coursework at home. Tuesday, September 12 – Blue-Ribbon Winners from the ACS – Which cheeses rose to the top in this year’s prestigious American Cheese Society competition? You’ll taste blue-ribbon winners from seven different categories this evening — to show you what this country’s finest cheesemakers are up to. No guarantees, but Janet will try to secure the Best of Show. Tuesday, October 10 – West Coast Wonders – Since Laura Chenel introduced America to goat cheese 40 years ago, the Left Coast has been a leader in the artisan cheese movement. Taste cow, goat and sheep cheeses from the artisan producers admired in California, Oregon and Washington. Tuesday, November 14 – Break Out the Bubbles! – Experience the versatility of sparkling wine in this tasting as it is challenged with a range of cheeses, from creamy to firm, from mild to robust. Those bubbles work miracles! Learn why sparkling wine is a slam-dunk choice for your cheese boards. Classes are 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Class size is limited and reservations are required. Click on the desired dates below to reserve your place. Single class: $80 Mini Tour (three classes of your choice): $225 www.janetfletcher.com

Janet Fletcher continued What’s your fave combo for creating a fondue that takes you to the Swiss Alps from the first dip? Gruyère for sure. Then something stronger like Raclette, Appenzeller or Challerhocker. A good Fontina Val d’Aosta or Comté is also nice to include but neither is Swiss.
Current favorite cheeses from California? Oh, don’t make me choose. But I’m really impressed with the cheeses coming from Pennyroyal Farm in Boonville. I love Laychee, their freshest cheese, and Boont Corners, their 2- to 4-month-old rinded raw-milk wheel. Both are goat cheeses with sheep’s milk added, when they have it. (Sheep are offduty from September through February.)
What state in the US is totally underrated for cheese? Wisconsin. Many people (including some in Wisconsin) associate the state with cheese curds and inexpensive nonbranded Cheddar. But there are some first-rate producers there, including Uplands Cheese (Pleasant Ridge Reserve, Rush Creek Reserve), Hook’s (for aged Cheddar and blue cheese), Hidden Springs Creamery (for sheep cheese), Carr Valley (for Cave Aged Marisa, a sheep cheese) and Deer Creek Cheese for its large line of aged Cheddars.
IMPECCABLE HOSPITALITY
You have a bottle of very rich, ripe Cabernet, a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc and a fruity Russian River Pinot. What are your go-to cheeses for maximum enjoyment with these styles of wine? With Cabernet, I love an aged sheep cheese, like Manchego or a pecorino Toscano or Friesago from Shepherd’s Way Farms in Minnesota. But my favorite in that category would be Ossau-Iraty, an aged sheep cheese from the French Pyrenees. With Sauvignon Blanc, if it’s steely and not oaky, I like a young goat cheese: Cypress Grove’s Humboldt Fog, Vermont Creamery’s Bonne Bouche or Coupole, or Tomme de Chèvre Grandmère from France. With Pinot Noir I like a cheese with some mushroomy notes. Ferme de la Tremblaye’s Brie Fermier is a good choice, as is the Boont Corners from Pennyroyal. A truffled Brie takes the mushroom theme to another level. Need to take your curd IQ to the next level?

Focaccia Bread Pudding with Mushrooms & Goat Cheese I developed this recipe for Wine Institute as an accompaniment to California Pinot Noir. Roast chicken is its ideal companion or serve it with a green salad for a meatless meal. – Janet Fletcher Serves 4 to 6 • 2 teaspoons unsalted butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried herbes de Provence
• ½ pound mushrooms, cultivated or wild, sliced or quartered
• ½ pound plain focaccia, 1 to 2 days old, in 1-inch cubes
• Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 4 large eggs, beaten
• 2 cups thinly sliced leeks, white and pale green part only
• 2 cups whole milk • 4 to 5 ounces fresh goat cheese with no rind
Preheat an oven to 375°F. Using 1 teaspoon butter, grease the bottom and sides of a 2-quart baking dish. An oval baking dish measuring about 13x8x1-1/2 inches works well. Heat 1-1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms. Do not stir for 30 seconds to allow the mushrooms to sear on one side. Then season with salt and pepper and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are nicely browned and tender, about 3 minutes, adjusting the heat if necessary to prevent scorching. Set aside on a plate. Let the skillet cool slightly, then add the remaining 1-1/2 tablespoons olive oil and return to medium-low heat. Add the leeks, garlic and herbes de Provence. Sauté until the leeks are soft, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, combine the focaccia, mushrooms and leeks. Toss gently with a spatula. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper. Pour over the bread mixture and stir gently with a rubber spatula. Let stand for 15 minutes, stirring once or twice, so the bread absorbs some of the liquid. Add the goat cheese in small clumps, then stir gently to distribute. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and dot the surface with the remaining 1 teaspoon butter. Bake until puffed, nicely colored on top, and firm to the touch, about 35 minutes. If you want it a little more crusty on top, put it under a preheated broiler for a minute or two. Watch closely! Let cool 15 minutes before serving.

The 17th Annual
California Artisan Cheese Festival Held March 24-26, 2023, the festival offers many ways to enjoy local cheese including farm tours, pairing and tasting seminars with world-class cheese experts, a cheese crawl and the ever-popular Marketplace California’s premier cheese festival, taking place March 24-26, will host the Marketplace at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds, seminars at various wineries, a cheese crawl at The Barlow in Sebastopol, farm and cheese producer tours throughout Sonoma and Marin Counties, and beyond. For the first time since 2019, the beloved Festival is back for three full days of cheese tasting, education and celebration, bringing together artisan cheesemakers, farmers, chefs, brewers, winemakers, distillers and cheese enthusiasts. Throughout the weekend, guests will have the opportunity to experience new, limited-production, and rare artisan cheeses, and learn about the art of making cheese — all while supporting California farmers and cheesemakers. These public events include farm and producer tours, cheese tastings, pairings, educational seminars and demonstrations, a cheese crawl, and the Sunday Marketplace. Tickets are now on sale and are expected to sell out quickly. “We are incredibly fortunate to be able to offer support and recognition for our amazing local cheesemaking community with the return of the California Artisan Cheese Festival, which has become one of the country’s most anticipated annual events for cheese lovers and foodies,” said Judy Groverman Walker, Event Producer for the California Artisan Cheese Festival. “And because of the tough circumstances over the last few years, we are extremely grateful that we can come back and give folks the opportunity to safely attend three days of beloved events while supporting California farmers and cheesemakers who have had a tough go of it throughout the pandemic.” This three-day cheese extravaganza starts with Friday’s Farm Tours, and several of the tours will visit areas outside of the immediate Bay Area, including North Sacramento, Central Valley and Mendocino County. Tour G which travels to the Spenker Family Farm in Lodi even includes goat yoga! Saturday will feature seminars and demos in some gorgeous wine country locations including Balletto Vineyards, Kendall Jackson Wine Center and Sugarloaf Wine Company. Since the seminars all take place at wineries, each one has a unique wine pairing experience available as an add-on for those who’d like to stay and enjoy the site a little longer. Saturday night features a brand new event, a Cheese Crawl at The Barlow! This walk-around tasting event will be similar to a bar crawl, but focused on cheese pairings with local sips and nibbles from restaurants, distilleries, breweries and more. Sunday’s Artisan Cheese Tasting & Marketplace will take place at the vast Grace Pavilion at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds. For those who’d like to get the inside track and early entry into the Marketplace, the Bubbles + Bites is a pre-marketplace light breakfast with author and radio personality Clark Wolf. Wolf will be giving tips on how to best experience everything the Marketplace has to offer as attendees enjoy breakfast bites and local bubbles. The Artisan Cheese Tasting & Marketplace has always been considered the “grand finale” of the Festival because it gives cheese enthusiasts the opportunity to experience new, limited-production, and rare artisan cheeses as well as meet and sample the products from many Bay Area farmers, chefs, brewers, winemakers, distillers and artisan food purveyors.

New Release Wine Recommendations
by Melissa Vogt
Celebrate Love with these Valentine’s Day Wine & Pairings Arista 2019 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir, $70 For those looking for a Pinot Noir that truly expresses the varietal characteristics and puts a focus on terroir — unmasked by heavy oak or high alcohol — then the stunning Pinot Noir collection from Arista should be on your list. Their 2019 appellation series Russian River Valley Pinot Noir showcases a mix of blue and red fruits in the bouquet, with gentle aromas of lavender. The palate is full of pomegranate, cranberry, and a touch of orange zest. It has beautiful acidity, a medium body, and smooth texture from start to finish. It’s a beautiful wine. Food Pairing: Duck à l’Orange
Elyse Winery 2019 Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel, $55 The 2019 Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel from Elyse Winery is an expression that showcases the hallmark characteristics for which the appellation is known: strong aromas of blackberry and pepper abound on the nose with a bramble-fruit palate that resembles flavors of baked berry pie. It’s full-bodied and seductive with intense flavors and a long finish. Food Pairing: Roasted Leg of Lamb
Sequoia Grove 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon, $55 Sequoia Grove’s 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is a traditional Bordeaux blend, boasting a fruit-forward bouquet of blueberry and black cherry cola. The majority of the blend is 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and the 11% Merlot brings a rounded texture and silky mouthfeel. It shows off silky tannins, lovely notes of cherry and burnt sugar, and finishes long. Food Pairing: Braised Beef Short Ribs
Robert Mondavi¥ 2020 To Kalon Reserve¥Fumé Blanc, $95 Always a favorite, the Fumé Blanc (aka Sauvignon Blanc) is a full of vibrant aromas of papaya, white flowers, peaches, and Meyer lemon. The palate shows off a medium body with bright acidity and pleasant minerality. It sees a small percentage of new French oak during aging (19%), giving it that voluptuous mouthfeel and touch of vanilla flavor.§Food Pairing: Seafood Pasta
Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars 2020 Artemis Cabernet Sauvignon, $75 Very approachable in its youth, the new-release Artemis Cabernet from the historic Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars offers expressive aromas of mocha, dark chocolate, and black cherry alongside more savory scents of olive and thyme. It’s rich and full-bodied on the palate with fine-grained tannins. While this wine will age well, it’s a palate-pleaser already. Food Pairing: Filet Mignon or New York Strip

NAPA VALLEY MUSTARD CELEBRATION Legend has it that the fi st mustard plants arrived in Napa Valley in the 1800s when Jesuit priests traveled through California and scattered he mustard seeds throughout the valley.
N
apa Valley is a world-renowned destination boasting mild temperatures and yearround accessibility featuring a vibrant lifestyle that includes award-winning, worldclass wines; elevated epicurean dining experiences; serene wellness retreats; and an arts and entertainment culture that spans all artistic expressions including music, theater, and creative arts in many mediums from acrylic and oil painting to mixed media to sculptural pieces, pottery, glass art, and beyond. Visitors from around the globe, and residents alike, enjoy the many wonders of Napa Valley. And, among this colorfully woven tapestry of wine, food, culture, and arts is a hidden surprise…just as winter begins to wane and the spring approaches, mustard flowers blanket the valley in swaths of vibrant yellow color. Mustard flower serves primarily as a ground cover crop springing up between vineyard rows up and down the valley, but this cover crop has an unwitting dual-purpose as it puts on a dazzling display of beauty, capturing the hearts and minds of many a photographer and artist, visitor, and resident. Whether one is a professionally trained photographer or a novice with a smart phone and an Instagram account, the flowering mustard among the vines most certainly creates a picture-perfect memory. In honor of this beautiful time of year, longtime Napa resident and art gallery owner, Jessel Miller, enlisted a dedicated and small but mighty group of local business owners, artists, and members of local chambers of commerce and invited them to participate in her vision – breathing new life into a Napa Valley Mustard Celebration. This event is designed to promote an unexpected element of visual surprise in the Napa Valley and, along with it, off r yet one more fun reason to enjoy this amazingly diverse region. During the three-month period, from January to March 2023, the Napa Valley Mustard Celebration is promising to be an amalgamation of sight, sound, touch, scent, and taste. Each of the five towns which comprise the Napa Valley – American Canyon, the City of Napa, Yountville, St. Helena, and Calistoga – will feature events or activities to commemorate the Mustard Season. Residents and visitors alike might expect live art demonstrations, discounts at local merchants, specialty food items, and open gallery exhibits at various locations in Napa Valley. See the highlighted events on pages 42-47. Find more news and information about the Napa Valley Mustard Celebration at napavalleymustardcelebration.com.

Curated, Hands-On Experiences with Sonoma Epicurean Super Bowl champion Russell Wilson and GRAMMY Award-winning singer/songwriter, entrepreneur, and philanthropist Ciara to host annual benefit The V Foundation for Cancer Research has announced that Super Bowl champion Russell Wilson and GRAMMY Award-winning singer/songwriter, entrepreneur, and philanthropist Ciara, two of the newest members of the Foundation’s board of directors will host the 2nd Annual Sonoma Epicurean. The event will be held March 9-12, in Sonoma County’s renowned wine country. Sonoma Epicurean is a signature series of events featuring curated and hands-on experiences with award-winning chefs, local artisans, and world-class vintners, focusing on lifestyle, wellness, and sustainability. Proceeds from the event will fund cancer research and related programs to benefit the V Foundation for Cancer Research. Wilson and Ciara are committed philanthropists, cofounding the Why Not You Foundation with a focus on pediatric cancer, fighting poverty and education. Since 2014, they have raised more than $10 million for pediatric cancer research. Recently, they became New York Times Bestselling authors with the release of their first children’s book “Why Not You” (Random House). Through the foundation, the Wilsons have also funded a charter school in Seattle, which opened in late 2021. The V Foundation’s wine country events have raised nearly $140 million for cancer research over the last 24

In addition, Yountville Arts presents the Find Your Heart in Yountville Gallery Show through March 24, showcasing heart-themed works in all mediums at the Yountville Community Center located at 6516 Washington Street. “Find Your Heart Yountville is a wonderful way to start spring and recharge in the Napa Valley,” said Yountville Chamber President & CEO Whitney Diver McEvoy. “This is one of our favorite times of the year, when the mustard is in bloom, the weather is warming up yet crisp enough for a glass of cabernet by a roaring fire.

Davis Estates, Napa Valley
new Wine Tasting Room
Davis Estates has dedicated their 2020 First Responders Chardonnay to the brave firefighters who fought to save their winery and so many others two years ago during the 2020 Glass Fire in Napa Valley. Appropriately dubbed the Thank You First Responders Chardonnay, this wine will benefit local heroes, with 50% of the proceeds going directly to Napa Valley firehouses. While the wine is similar to the regularly released Chardonnay that Davis Estates fans know and love, because of winemaking conditions during the fires, the 2020 First Responders Chardonnay saw no new oak and had to be finished in stainless steel tanks, giving it a crisper and refreshing flavor profile.

Tips on Wine Tasting Guidelines and Etiquette to Enhance Your Experience Visiting a winery tasting room may sometimes be intimidating, especially if you are not used to wine tasting and aren’t quite sure what to expect. Following the guidelines and etiquette tips below will help enhance your experience as you travel through wine country. Due to Covid-19, there have been changes to the wine tasting adventures. So please before you go: • Plan in advance. Most wineries are now by appointment and in some cases “as space is available” (should you not have made reservations). Don’t be shy to ask at the last minute, but understand they may be full or be reserved. • Understand that there may be a time limit • Ask about the different tasting experiences and costs. • If you plan to “share” a tasting, ask if it is okay. You may still be charged per person. • If this applies, ask if the winery is dog/child friendly. • Be sure to adhere to individual, local and state guidelines in place at the time (i.e. mask wearing until seated, etc.) • Be flexible • Don’t be self-conscious to share a tasting (*if appropriate) with your companion – it’s not looked on as being cheap, in fact, it’s smart.
• Don’t worry if you think you don’t know good wine. “Good wine” is what you like. Period. • You don’t have to finish the glass. You are tasting, not drinking – use the dump bucket. Those little sips add up fast. • You don’t have to like everything poured. The reason you are tasting is to see what you do and don’t like. • Take time to smell the roses, or wine! Swirl the wine in the bowl of the glass then take your time, put your nose into the bowl of the glass … and inhale to experience the bouquet. See what fragrances you can identify: Earthy? Lemon? Honeysuckle? Cherry? Tobacco? It’s okay if you don’t identify any of those things, with time and tasting you will! • Remember the five “S’s” of wine tasting: See (the wine in the glass), Swirl, Smell, Sip and Savor. (Take a small sip. Let the liquid surround your taste buds, what flavors can you identify)? • Ask questions! Remember … there are no stupid questions. You are there to enjoy and learn, and your server is there to help. • Don’t feel pressured to buy a bottle or to join a wine club, (however, if the tasting is free, or if you have a private tasting with a winemaker, it is good form to purchase a bottle). • Leave a tip if you have had a nice experience ($5-$20 is a general rule, depending on the type of tasting). • Don’t wear scents into a tasting room (cologne or perfume), and best not to wear white! • Ask your server to recommend their favorite wineries to visit. • Seek smaller, out-of-the-way, boutique wineries. • Eat breakfast before you leave for the day and … hydrate – hydrate – hydrate! Hint: Drink one glass of water for each glass of wine.
WALT WINES, SONOMA

• Bring something to snack on such as crackers, breadsticks or a baguette, (but inquire in advance if outside food is okay to bring in). Take time for lunch. When picnicking at a winery, never bring wine from another winery
WINE COUNTRY THIS MONTH
GOOD TO KNOW • Acidity: The level of natural acids in a wine that give it freshness and crispness on the palate. • American Viticultural Area (AVA): A governmentapproved wine-growing region whose geological and climatic conditions create wines of distinction. A specific appellation of origin. • Body: A term used to describe the weight of a wine on the palate. • Bouquet: A term for the fragrance of a wine developed after it has been aged. Sometimes used interchangeably with “aroma,” which is technically the fragrance of a wine before aging.
• Brix: A grape ripeness scale, used primarily in the U.S., that measures solids (sugars) inside the juice of a grape.
• Don’t try to do too much. In general, three to four wineries will fill your day. • If possible have a designated driver (or use a driving service). If staff feels you have had enough to drink they may refuse service, it’s for your own well-being. • Trust your palate. Don’t worry if you don’t like what your friends or companions like. Not everyone likes the same things. This is about you – not them. • Enjoy yourself! BY DONALD SONDERLING
• Cap: The top surface of the must, where solids accumulate and are then pushed back down (punched down) into the juice to increase skin contact. • Crush: Harvest season that starts with picking grapes and ends months later with the transfer of wine to barrel. • Cuvée: A Champagne house’s best offering, usually made from the first pressing of grapes; A • Estate-bottled: The wine was under the control of the producer, start to finish.
• Fermentation: The transformation of grape juice into wine as sugar plus yeast convert to alcohol and carbon dioxide (and heat). • Finish: The impression a wine leaves on the palate after swallowing or spitting. • Lees: Dead yeast cells from fermentation that settle at the bottom of a barrel or tank. When stirred in the wine, as done during the aging of Chardonnay, lees add body and creaminess. • Legs: Streams of wine that run down the inside wall of a wine glass. Narrow, fast-moving legs generally indicate low alcohol content and light body, while wide, slow legs usually mean richness and higher alcohol. • Maceration: A time period that allows grape skins to make contact with grape juice, usually before fermentation begins, in order to develop deeper color in the finished wine. • Meritage: The unique American term for a Bordeaux-style blended red wine made in the U.S. from two or more of the five classic red grapes of Bordeaux. Not more than 90% of a single grape can make up a wine labeled as Meritage. • Must: The mixture of unfermented grape juice with the solids from skins, stems and seeds of the grapes. • Nose: A term to describe how a wine smells, sometimes used in place of “aroma.”
• Reserve: Term used by a producer that usually indicates a wine ranked among their highest tier of quality. • Sediment: Residue accumulated during extended aging of a bottle of wine. Red wine sediment is formed by color pigments, tannin molecules and tartrates. White wine can sometimes show sediment of tartrates that appear as crystals. • Sulfites: Chemical compounds of sulfur that act as a preservative in wine.

• Tannin: A primary component in red wine, it is a chemical compound (phenolic) developed in wine when fermenting juice makes extended contact with skins, seeds and stems; also added to wine as it ages in contact with oak. At an elevated level, tannin gives wine a dryness on the palate and causes the mouth to pucker (astringency), but when balanced with other components it provides the necessary structure that gives texture and grip.
