Wineology

INTELLIGENCE FOR THE WINE CONSUMER

BY LEN NAPOLITANO

Which wines are best for barbecues? Summer grilling triggers two very different types of wine in my mind: First, there are the crisp, dry or semi-dry, white and rosé wines that really satisfy when served very chilled. You may not think of wine as necessarily a thirst quencher, but a refreshing white wine, like Pinot Grigio, and some dry rosé wines can be quite refreshing. The other wine style that comes to mind for a barbecue is richly flavored reds like Syrah, Zinfandel and Petite Sirah. The reason is because of barbecue sauce that usually smothers grilled chicken or ribs. I like the combination of the sweet and spicy flavor in the sauce with the full body and rich, dark fruitiness of these wines.

EXPERIENCE THE UNIQUE CHARACTER OF PROVENANCE

1695 ST. HELENA HWY SOUTH | RUTHERFORD | 707.968.3633 OPEN DAILY 10 AM TO 5 PM | PROVENANCEVINEYARDS.COM PLEASE ENJOY OUR FINE WINES RESPONSIBLY. ©2017 Provenance Vineyards, Rutherford, CA.

I’ve long been a big fan of Syrah but I have also grown pretty fond of the Petite Sirah as well. Both wines have an exotic black fruitiness with a spicy edge but the Petite Sirah has an additional boldness to it that can be jarring in a good way. Red Zinfandel also delivers a spicy fruit flavor that lends itself to summer grilling. Just keep in mind that these full-bodied red wines tend to come with higher alcohol levels than white wines and even many other red wines. Of course, when it comes to wine and food I always state that your personal preference takes precedent over any suggestions I make. If you only drink Merlot, for example, then that’s what you should drink with barbecue. But, if you’re in the mood to explore, try one of these alternatives. As I have mentioned in the past, Pinot Noir is a good wine to serve when you need to satisfy many different palates even at a barbecue. It’s the perfect red wine if you are looking for something safe – not too light, not too big. It can handle grilled fish as well as mild red meats served without rich sauces. Another is Beaujolais from France. It is even light enough to go with summer salads (and can even be served slightly chilled) and filled with bright, cherry-like fruit. Great without food, too.

SODA ROCK WINERY Soda Rock Winery is located just seven miles northeast of Healdsburg, which has been ranked several times as “one of the best small towns in America” by Fodor’s Magazine and Huffington Post. Soda Rock is steeped in history, and if the mossy old stone walls could talk, we’d hear some colorful stories. What actually started as its own town complete with postoffice, hotel, general store, grammar school, housing and a town bar in 1889 eventually dwindled down with the addition of neighboring Jimtown. When it was sold in the 1920s the new owners focused on growing grapes for home winemakers while the building housed a machine shop to which some of the vineyard machinery is still on display today. When Ken and Diane Wilson purchased the property in 2000, the charm you see today was just a vision in Ken’s imagination. Recognizing the property’s historic value and appreciating the architecture of the stone buildings and water tower, Ken launched Soda Rock’s long-term restoration plan. Today, you see a decade of carefully planned restoration using recycled and green materials whenever possible. Before entering the tasting room guests of the winery are greeted by “Lord Snort,” a two-ton statue of a wild boar constructed by local artist, Bryan Tedrick, which found its new home in November 2016. The tasting room bar was salvaged from a local tavern which offers a comfortable, easy-going atmosphere for your tasting experience. Soda Rock Winery has several wines giving homage over the past 150 years. “The General” named after the General Store, “Wentworth Zinfandel” for Fred Wentworth, the owner of the Alexander Valley store around 1870, and “Meeks Merlot” for Tom Meeks, winery/property owners from 1904-1925. The Wild Boar Red Blend has sold out upon release the past two years in a row. One of their newest releases, Twisted Rail Cabernet Sauvignon, has already won a Best of Class award at the 2016 Sonoma County Harvest Fair and a Gold Medal at the 2017 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition. The most recent 2014 Rockpile Primitivo just won Best of Class in the 2017 Dan Berger International Wine Competition. The picnic grounds give you a gorgeous view of Alexander Valley, and allow you the time to relax and enjoy the surrounding vineyard and hillside vistas. As the restoration of the property continues, doors remain open to share this remarkable site with the surrounding community and visitors alike; watching as it once again regains its place as the hub of activity for the valley. Currently, Soda Rock Winery has become a popular wedding venue attracting clients from the Bay Area and beyond. It also plays host to the annual Children of Vineyard Workers Scholarship Gala which raises funds to donate as scholarships to students who wish to further their education.

FERRARI-CARANO VINEYARDS & WINERY Twice as Nice Visit Ferrari-Carano Vineyards and Winery in Dry Creek Valley, or taste the wines on the Healdsburg Plaza at FerrariCarano’s Seasons of the Vineyard Wine Shop.

Ferrari-Carano Vineyards and Winery Founded in 1981 by Don and Rhonda Carano, Ferrari-Carano is home to award-winning wines, five acres of beautiful gardens and breathtaking vineyard views. Starting with a small, 30-acre vineyard in the late ’70s, Ferrari-Carano has grown to about 1,900 certified sustainably-farmed vineyard acres in six appellations. Visit the beautiful home of Ferrari-Carano wines, the spectacular Italianate hospitality center, Villa Fiore, on the 70-acre Dry Creek Valley ranch with estate vineyards and beautiful gardens.

Wine Tasting Daily At the winery, visitors may taste classic and limited-release wines in the Villa Fiore Wine Shop, in the Enoteca located in the underground cellar, or on Il Terrazzo, the outdoor terrace overlooking the vineyards. On Il Terrazzo and depending on the day, choose to relax on the terrace with table service from the Villa Fiore tasting bar, try a wine flight for $30 (five wines) which 22

includes an Ferrari-Carano logo glass, or if you prefer to relax and sip at your own pace, choose a wine by the glass or bottle for your enjoyment. Choose your favorite wine and stay awhile to take in the beautiful garden views.

Free Daily Winery Tour If you’d like an in-depth look at Ferrari-Carano, reserve your spot for the winery tour, offered daily at 10 a.m., free and by appointment. Hosted by friendly and knowledgeable staff, you will stroll through the gardens, see vineyards up close, perhaps catch one of the winemaking team or cellar crew hard at work on the crush pad or in the winery’s cellars or tank rooms, view Don and Rhonda Carano’s personal wine cellar, and visit the Enoteca and Villa Fiore tasting rooms. You will hear about Ferrari-Carano’s history – how Don and Rhonda first came to Sonoma County on a wine buying trip and just fell in love with the area. After the tour, you are invited to taste Ferrari-Carano wines at the Classic Wine Bar or in the Enoteca. Winery tours are available daily, 10 a.m., by appointment. To schedule your tour, email tourinformation@ferrari-carano.com or call the Hospitality Department at (707) 433-6700 or 1-800-831-0381.

SUSTAINABLE VINEYARD PRACTICES Ferrari-Carano and Lazy Creek Vineyards have long practiced sustainable farming techniques to help protect the lands they farm – both vineyard and agriculture – and the environment that surrounds them. Don and Rhonda Carano realized early on that to achieve their goal of producing memorable, quality wines they needed to start in the vineyards and not focus solely on the winemaking. Inspired to meet their present goals while preserving the land, Don and Rhonda made the commitment to implement sustainable farming techniques from vineyard to bottle. In 2014, directed by Don Carano and orchestrated under the supervision of Steve Domenichelli, Director of Vineyard Operations, Ferrari-Carano’s then 24 vineyards earned California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance (CSWA) certification, becoming a Certified California Sustainable Vineyard for their numerous efforts to preserve the land for future generations. The certification acknowledges Ferrari-Carano for being conscientious of the environment, surroundings, neighbors and their labor force on their vineyard ranches. The same may be true of Lazy Creek Vineyards, as the winery is a Certified California Sustainable Vineyard and Winery.

Private Tastings Private tastings are available by appointment. Each tasting, hosted in the PreVail Room, is designed to highlight the many nuances of wine in a fun and informative style and include Matchmaker (a wine and food pairing), Chardonnay Lovers, The King of Reds, The PreVail Tasting and Scentiments, to name a few. Private Tastings range in price from $20 to $35, and groups of up to eight are welcome. To schedule a private tasting, contact the hospitality department, privatetasting@ferraricarano.com, call the Hospitality Department or visit the website, www.ferrari-carano.com.

Cole’s Chop House You may be able to get a decent steak at some restaurants, but to have a truly great steak experience, seek out a genuine steakhouse. Cole’s Chop House in downtown Napa is the triedand-true great steakhouse, capturing the essence of fine dining down to every last detail. Accolades abound from Food Network, Open Table, Trip Advisor and Napa Valley Wine List Award to gold standards such as Zagat and Michelin Guide. Cole’s Chop House is a treasured favorite for locals and a gem for visitors. Step inside the sophisticated dining room within the heritage stone building from 1886 and you will instantly understand why Cole’s has the reputation it does, from both locals and new guests. The warm and intimate ambience provides the perfect place to unwind after a long day and open that bottle of wine you’ve been saving for a special night. Executive Chef Jesús Méndez executes each dish with perfection. Formerly of Robert Sinskey Vineyards, Chef Méndez assisted in his Culinary Program where he gained invaluable knowledge from both the wine cellar and kitchen. For two years prior to the opening of Cole’s Chop House, Chef Méndez worked in the kitchen at Celadon, a renowned California cuisine restaurant also in downtown Napa. The culinary team at Cole’s selects only the finest cuts, from USDA beef to pork from family farms in Iowa to lamb chops from New Zealand. 26

Cole’s Chop House serves up classic dishes as well as seasonal offerings. Perhaps the star of the steak menu is the Tomahawk steak, a 36-38 oz. long bone rib-eye steak. This USDA Prime steak is dry-aged for 21 days by Allen Brothers in Chicago. A juicy and flavorful steak that melts in your mouth! There’s also Cole’s Famous 21 Day Dry-Aged New York Steak or 21 Day Dry-Aged Porterhouse Steak, meant for two to share. If you aren’t in the mood for steak, Cole’s has options. Choose from Marcho Farms Provimi Veal Chop, a full rack of New Zealand Lamb Chops, or a 14 Day Dry-Aged Center-Cut Pork Chop. Traditional sides such as creamed spinach, baked potatoes, thin-sliced onion rings and asparagus with hollandaise complete the perfect meal, or try the to-die-for Yukon Gold Potato and Gruyère Gratin. For dessert, don’t miss the warm summer fruit crisp, which is a heavenly mix of Bing cherries, nectarines and blueberries, topped with brown sugar, butter and oatmeal. Served with a scoop of vanilla bean gelato, the calories are worth every bite. But food isn’t the only area where Cole’s exceeds. Besides having an extensive wine list emphasizing Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from the area’s finest wineries, Cole’s Chop House also offers a wide selection of bourbon and whiskeys. Taste custommade Bourbon by Woodford Distillery, one of the oldest names

Char Vale Winery Located in the lush Green Valley of the Russian River Valley, Char Vale is a new, family-owned vineyard and winery with two key goals: to make the finest Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines; and to create a welcoming retreat, where you can relax and enjoy these wines.

Char Vale Medal Winning Wines As a recent review in the Sonoma County Preferred Wine Country Day Trips (Spring/Summer 2017) stated, “Prepare to be wowed. The Chardonnay and Pinot Noirs are truly world class, yet affordable.” Char Vale had its first harvest in 2014 and currently has two styles of estategrown Pinot Noir available. The wines are made solely from grapes grown and nurtured in the ten acre estate vineyard. The grapes are crafted into wine in the adjoining winery. The two styles of Pinot Noir are created by the Char Vale winemaker, Tim Callahan, through blending of distinct barrels of wine derived from separately harvested and oak aged batches of wine. The Estate Pinot Noir leans to a rich, fruity taste experience, while the Estate Vineyard 28

Select Pinot Noir has complex layers of flavor. Both wines are limited production, less than 200 cases annually, and both are currently available for the 2014 and 2015 vintage years. Char Vale is proud that, after only two vintages, its Pinot Noir was awarded a Gold Medal in the recent Santa Rosa Press Democrat, North Coast Wine Challenge. Char Vale also produces a Chardonnay from grapes harvested at a single vineyard in the Carneros region of Sonoma County. The grapes are pressed and crafted into wine at the Char Vale winery. The Chardonnay is lightly oaked, with hints of citrus, pears and apples. Less than 200 cases are produced annually. The wine is currently available for the 2014 and 2015 vintages. For the first time, Char Vale has produced a Rosé of Pinot Noir, from the 2015 vintage. It is ideal for summer dining. Production is extremely limited at less than 40 cases.

Tasting Room The tasting room opened at the Char Vale property earlier this year. It was created by remodeling of the original home

at the site. A full glass wall and large, adjoining deck open up expansive views, overlooking the vineyard, and make a welcoming location to sit back and taste the wines. For those interested, there is an easy access from the deck to the nearby vines, allowing a close look at the developing fruit. A Char Vale staff member is usually available to tell you about the cultivation of the grapes and progress during the season.

Plantings Char Vale has just grafted a few additional clones of Pinot Noir into the vineyard, to achieve additional blends in the future. A small amount of Riesling has also been added, with the goal of producing a future dessert wine.

Foley Johnson Napa History in the Making Right in the heart of Napa Valley, just a mile or so from the famed Oakville Grocery, it would be easy to say that everything old is new again, a bit of Napa history in the making and really, a truly welcoming winery that begins to reveal itself only as you arrive and begin to explore the wines and the somewhat hidden grounds, well shaded and beautifully landscaped. Foley Johnson is just five years old and relatively small by any standard. No surprise if you’re not familiar with the winery or the wines, but you will be. It’s a family affair, named jointly in honor of founder Bill Foley and his wife Carol Johnson Foley, with son Patrick Foley at the helm of winemaking after stints in Argentina, New Zealand and the Chalk Hill district in Sonoma. Pat’s first Foley Johnson wine, a 2014 Estate Meritage Red Blend, earned a 92 Point nod from famed critic Robert Parker, a hint of what’s to come. The winery and tasting room are easy to find, and a nice neighborhood to be in with notable names like Peju and St. Supery framing the 50-acre estate, a bit deceiving from Highway 29 since the long side of the property runs west to east towards the Napa River. Surrounded by vineyards planted mostly to Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, with small blocks of Malbec, Petit Verdot, Petite Sirah, Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc, Foley Johnson features two principal winery buildings in a rustic farm style, with the major winery built after Bill Foley acquired the former Sawyer Cellars in 2012. Vineyards are young, averaging 15 years in 21 distinct blocks. 32

Picnic at Foley Johnson

Experience the Modern Elegance of Foley Johnson Foley Johnson exemplifies the modern elegance and casual warmth of Rutherford, Napa Valley. As you turn off Highway 29 and enter the Foley Johnson driveway, a modern vine sculpture framing the front of the winery building gives you a peek into what’s to come. Enter the tasting room through a canopy of lush wisteria and find a modern, spacious room with a large granite bar fronting an impressive wall of wine. In the vaulted ceiling above hangs a vine-inspired chandelier, purchased at an art-and-wine auction. There are two basic opportunities to explore the wines. One option focuses on the Rutherford Estate wines, beginning with a crisp and inviting Sauvignon Blanc. Most of these wines are produced in small lots of just 10 barrels (the highly rated Meritage wine was just 75 cases at release) and include Estate Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot. The other tasting option features wines from the Handmade collection. Look closely at the labels and you’ll find a thumbprint identifying mark, symbolic of the hands on winemaking style. Unlike the Estate tier of wines, the Handmade wines hail beyond Napa Valley and include appellations such as Chalk Hill, Santa Ynez Valley and Sta. Rita Hills. These small-lot bottlings are produced in very limited quantities, so the tasting line-up often varies. These wines give guests a chance to taste some of the best vineyard sites throughout California. Reservations are preferred and greatly appreciated, since it allows the winery to properly prepare for your visit. But in this laid back environment, same day appointments are acceptable, and groups are welcomed. In fact, there’s a VIP tasting room just off the main lobby, and an almost secret (but now you know) library tasting room downstairs. Your next visit to Rutherford should include a stop at Foley Johnson to experience award winning wines in America’s preeminent wine growing region. >> BY JAMES CAUDILL

The winery grounds offer a great setting to picnic! Although the winery does not sell food onsite, guests are encouraged to pack their own picnics (remember how close by the Oakville Grocery is?) and enjoy a bottle of wine from the tasting room. At the front and northern side there are tented tables, and the rear of the facility opens to a stone patio and lawn outfitted with picnic tables and bocce ball court. Well behaved dogs are welcome. You might even see winemaker Pat Foley’s three year old Yellow Labrador Nala (who gets excited when other dogs arrive). Be sure to inquire about availability of picnic areas, as they are popular among those in the know, one of Napa’s secret spaces.

Tastings Estate Tasting $35: Five wines, offered daily Handmade Tasting $45: Five wines, offered daily Tasting fees waived with a two bottle purchase per guest Picnic Areas are available for wine club members without charge Small charges for Picnic areas waived with wine purchase Be sure to taste: Malbec, one of Napa’s future stars

Calistoga Inspired by Nature

Masters of Technique Finding the highest quality ingredients to make the finest tasting chocolates possible has always been a priority for Christian and Laura. Prior to opening their first shop, the couple taste-tested 36

hundreds of chocolates from around the globe in order to develop their signature style of seasonally focused recipes which reflect not only their personal taste but also highlight the locally sourced flavorings for the ganache fillings. Creating an American twist on a European specialty, the Earth and Sky bonbons are stronger in flavor than their old-world counterparts and the influence of the agricultural surroundings of Napa Valley is present in every bite. Their wine series is based on matching their fillings to the inherent characteristics of each wine varietal. For example, a white chocolate shelled bonbon may be filled with vanilla, pineapple, caramel or butterscotch ganache to pair with a Chardonnay or Viognier. And always a crowd favorite, blackberry and thyme ganache to pair with a hearty Napa Valley Cabernet. Christian and Laura continually experiment with different flavored teas, herbs, honeys and fruits to create one-of-a-kind offerings to please any palate. Later this fall, Earth and Sky will be introducing a limited-release holiday collection featuring traditional seasonal flavors using pumpkin spice, fresh peppermint, mulled cider and more. The bonbons are sold by the piece or serious chocolate lovers can create a custom assortment from more than fifteen flavors in a 16- or 25-piece box. Their shop is open Wednesday through Monday from 12 to 4 p.m. (hours expanding soon) for purchases and they are now creating custom bonbons for wedding clients, wine pairing programs at wineries and various special events throughout Napa Valley. For more information about their specialty confections, email earthandskychocolates@gmail.com. >> BY TANYA SEIBOLD

What started off as a friendship, and a mutual appreciation of fine chocolate, blossomed into a successful partnership in both business and love for Calistoga’s newest chocolatiers Christian Parks and Laura Koerth of Earth and Sky Chocolates located in the Calistoga Train Depot off Lincoln Avenue in the center of town. The husband and wife team met in 2004 in Chicago at the French Pastry School and found an instant connection to the intricate, European-style of bonbon. This haute chocolate-making technique uses modern-shaped molds to create dark couverture chocolate shells decorated with cocoa butter-based colors in vibrant Pollock-esque patterns which house decadent, creamy ganache centers—each filled with flavors inspired by their new wine country home such as heirloom fruit purees, local jams and honeys, teas, herbs and even wine and whiskey. Their eye-catching (and delicious) collection of bonbons, hand-wrapped caramels, nut brittles and toffees have garnered rave reviews since the company’s inception in 2007 and the demand for their confections found them looking for a larger retail and kitchen space to expand the business from its nine-year-old location in Jonesborough, Tennessee. In December 2016, the couple’s search was over when they found the Train Depot in Calistoga and made the decision to move the entire operation across the country. After a few months of renovating the turn-of-the-century railcar into a sleek showroom with a glossy all-white interior accented with touches of rustic wood, stone and chrome Sputnik lights, the natural light-filled car is now the perfect canvas to showcase the couple’s works of art and the new Earth and Sky Chocolates shop and kitchen opened, very appropriately, on Earth Day (April 22) of this year. “We’re fueled by what we see and find in nature. Like the beautiful views of the Pacific Coast which inspired our classic Sea Salt Caramel Bonbon—decorated with deep blues, seafoam greens Homewood Winery s colors.” said and silver on the outer shell to reflect the ocean’ Laura Koerth, Proprietor at Earth and Sky Chocolates. “It was the abundance of heirloom fruits and local jams which inspired us to create a nostalgic flavor like PB&J decorated in primary colors as a nod to everyone’s childhood favorite. Everything between the earth and the sky gives us inspiration.”

Your first impression may be lots of white latticework at the gate. The white lattice theme is continued with a large white trellis-like structure, which shades the picnic area. A goodly handful of black wrought iron picnic tables and chairs are scattered about under the trellis, creating a relaxing, welcoming ambience. Visitors are encouraged to bring a picnic, grab a bottle or six of wine and relax and stay a while. Once inside the winery and tasting room is where visitors may see (and taste) what makes Chateau Adoré different from other local wineries. A variety of wines and medals from various wine competitions are proudly displayed around the room. The overall atmosphere is bright, cheerful and colorful.

Wine Country This Week >> WINE COUNTRY NEWS

33rd Annual Winesong Event Tickets are on sale for the 33rd Annual Winesong event — a spectacular weekend of award-winning wine, fabulous food, fine art, music, merriment and charitable giving. Produced by the Mendocino Coast Hospital Foundation, the main event takes place at the gorgeous Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens on Saturday, September 9th, with A Pinot Noir Celebration at the nearby Little River Inn on Friday, September 8th. In addition, Winesong has just announced key honorees at this year’s event: Wine pioneer Nils Venge of famed Saddleback Cellars has been named Honored Vintner, wine writer and aficionado Dan Berger along with photographer and former wine industry executive George Rose have been named Auction Chairs, and local Anderson Valley Artist Rebecca Johnson has been named the 2017 Artist of the Year. Winesong allows attendees the opportunity to explore lauded wines from Mendocino County and around the world, all while sampling culinary delights from locally-based purveyors, as well as a selection of local brews and spirits. World-class artwork is also on display, all set against a backdrop of the stunning Botanical Gardens and the majestic Pacific Ocean. Winesong aims to create harmony between one of the most breathtaking vistas on earth and all of your other senses, all while raising money for the Mendocino Coast District Hospital. This year’s Honored Vintner, Nils Venge, is universally regarded as one of the foremost pioneers of the Napa Valley wine industry. Born to Danish immigrants, Venge’s exposure to wine came at an early age, as his parents operated a wine and liquor import and distribution company in Southern California. Venge continued his pursuit of wine at the University of California in Davis where he earned a BS in Viticulture in 1967. Following a tour of duty in Vietnam as a Navy Reservist, Venge moved to the Napa Valley to pursue his interest in winemaking. In the subsequent years, Venge worked for the notable wineries Charles Krug, Sterling, Villa Mount Eden and Groth. During his tenure at Groth, Venge became the first American winemaker to receive a perfect 100 point rating from Wine Critic Robert Parker Jr. The 1985 Groth Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon catapulted Venge to a venerated position in the California wine industry. Nils Venge continues to produce outstanding wines at his Oakville facility, Saddleback Cellars. Auction Chair Dan Berger is a former Los Angeles Times Wine Columnist and a lifelong journalist who spent ten years as a general assignment reporter and editor for The Associated Press. He began writing about wine in 1976 and has been nationally syndicated since 1979. He and his wife, Juliann Savage, publish a private weekly wine newsletter, Dan Berger’s Vintage Experiences, which began in February 1996. He has contributed articles to Wines & Vines, Decanter Magazine in London, Wine Press Northwest, Tasters’ Guild Journal, Sommelier Guild Journal, the privately published California Grapevine, trade journals Cheers and Beverage Dynamics, and numerous others. He has been a keynote speaker at wine marketing seminars and has been asked to judge several

wine competitions over the years. Dan has also garnered many awards, including Wines and Vines magazine’s “Wine Writer of the Year.” In 2010, Mr. Berger was inducted into the Wine Media Guild Hall of Fame in New York. He is on the board of directors of the International Riesling Foundation. He is an aficionado of Napa and Sonoma wines. More than 40 years ago, Auction Chair George Rose began his long career as a photographer. Throughout the years, he has traveled a long and winding road through the elite world of popular music, film, news, politics and sports, eventually leading him to California’s Wine Country. During his prolific years as a Los Angeles-based photojournalist, Rose developed a remarkable and historic body of photographic work focused on popular culture. His independent assignments, focused primarily on the entertainment industry, have been published in USA Today, Time,

WINE COUNTRY NEWS << Wine Country This Week Continued Newsweek and Rolling Stone. 40 vintage prints of his are in the permanent collection of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. In 1987, Rose won a World Press Photo Award for news, and was named California “Newspaper Photographer of the Year” in 1976 by the University of Missouri, School of Journalism. The Los Angeles Times twice nominated him (1979 and 1980) for a Pulitzer Prize. For the past 25 years, Rose was a wine industry executive communications director at four successful wine companies: Fetzer Vineyards, Allied Domecq Wines USA, Kendall-Jackson, and J Vineyards & Winery. During this time, he continued to pursue his passion of photography. In 2015, Rose moved to Santa Barbara County’s Santa Ynez Valley. Much of his time is devoted to documenting the natural environment of the county as well as top vineyard estates up and down the coast of California. He is also a contributing photographer with Getty Images. 2017 Artist of the Year Rebecca Johnson grew up in an artcentric family in rural Hopewell, New Jersey. Her parents were designers, artists and art educators. “Life is art” was the family credo. This philosophy enriched and continues to inform Rebecca’s art and career. As a young artist Rebecca embraced the path of the successful professional. She received her BFA from Tyler School of Art and her MFA from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. She studied bronze casting at the Johnson Atelier in New Jersey and stone carving in quarries in Vermont. A fulcrum of change occurred when The British American Arts Council awarded her a three-month fellowship to work in Northwest Wales. In this land of stonewalls, craggy mountains, wild coast and rich folkloric history Rebecca’s ideas gestated. Time and solitude created space for her to thoroughly see and imbibe the light, color and form of the land. Her exterior and interior visions integrated and enhanced each other. Rebecca discovered a new degree of courage and conviction to follow her work to its true ultimate power, rural nature and a poetic vision. Rebecca now lives and works in Northern California, Mendocino County, a place of raw elemental forces. Her studio is located in the Anderson Valley, where inside a large renovated barn

she creates paintings. The doors of the studio open to a hillside meadow filled with her stone sculpture. The calm beauty of this rural place resonates in her work.
