INTELLIGENCE FOR THE WINE CONSUMER
BY LEN NAPOLITANO
Is it sulfites in wine that give me headaches?
Sulfites are the reason for mandatory label warnings on wine
bottles because a small percentage of the US population, less than one
percent, suffer an allergic reaction to sulfites, such as sneezing or
coughing. About ten percent of these sufferers have a more serious
reaction, such as shortness of breath.
However, people who get headaches from wine should not
automatically blame the sulfites. In the majority of cases the cause is
probably something else, such as histamines in the wine. Some
people take an antihistamine in advance of drinking wine in order to
prevent getting a reaction from the histamines in the wine. Needless
to say, the causes of allergic reactions of any kind are difficult to pin
down without a doctor’s assistance and if you suffer any ailment as a
result of drinking wine, you should consult with a doctor.
If you have a wine allergy you can try narrowing down the cause
by first sampling wines made from organically grown grapes, such as
Bonterra made by Fetzer, or Sanford from Santa Barbara County,
among many others. These wines are made from grapes that are
grown without the use of synthetic chemicals, like pesticides,
herbicides and fungicides. If no relief comes from drinking wine from
organically grown grapes, the next step is to try a 100% organic wine,
which contains a minimal amount of sulfites that occur naturally in
production, and has no sulfites added. These wines are commonly
found in natural food grocery stores.
To be sure, every wine, organic or not, contains some sulfites
because sulfites are produced naturally in the process of winemaking.
If the total sulfite content is 10 parts per million or higher, however,
the government requires a warning label. Winemakers add more
sulfites because they help to preserve the quality of the wine for longterm shelf life. Therefore, wines that contain no added sulfites should
be consumed while the wine is young.

BY JOSH STEIN
Winter Means Oaky Delight
Winery operations are year-round, but the intensity of this
year’s harvest, which is so dependent upon time and speed, gives
way to a much more gentle process as our winter rains finally
begin, cellars get more chilly and damp, and wines begin to finish
their primary and secondary fermentations and are “racked” into
barrel. Alternatively, wines fermented in tanks which are meant
to finish those processes in the barrel are transferred off the “gross
lees,” the solid by-products of making wine, which include dead
yeast cells and various nutrients, so as to allow the oak’s influence
to be in the mix earlier in the production process before the wine
is even completely made. Regardless of which route toward oak
reds and some whites take, the reasons for “barreling down”
involve a slowdown into “cellar time.”
Wine is a production process, not alchemy – we “cook” with
grapes, essentially – and so the choice of using barrels is just that,
a choice, and one with many subtle logistical options available to
the winemaker. Before going into them, here’s what going into
barrel does for a wine. While almost all reds spend some time in
contact with oak, only some whites do. Oak imparts an
underlying creaminess, and time in contact with it encourages
malolactic fermentation to begin and to complete since
Oenococcus oeni, the organism which acutally does the acid shift,
is resident in oak; this serves to soften the wine since lactic acid is
half as strong as malic (think milk versus apple juice) and
provides perhaps another of the reasons barrels of oak were
chosen for storage in antiquity. Lastly, tannin formation and
interchange takes place between the barrels and the wine, and
time in barrel in combination with the micro-oxygenation as the
wood breathes serve to help create a chemically stable, silkier
finished wine.
With that as context, whether oak has been used as a primary
fermentation vessel or not, when ready to age in contact with
wood, the wine is transfered either from tank to barrel or from
barrel to barrel. Gravity-fed wineries do these processes through
the manipulation of space to allow the wine to literally drain
downwards without mechanical aids; most other wineries use
pumps of various designs to move wine horizontally or vertically
around their production spaces into barrels with as little
disturbance or oxygen contact as possible. Some wineries go the
opposite direction, concatenating their wines into larger lots held
in large oak or redwood vats or steel tanks, with or without oak
stave inserts.
Costs, of course, always play a role. A new imported barrel is
north of $1,000, and that barrel will be used at most four times
for any discernible “oakiness” it would impart. Think of a stormbattered piece of wood, only what’s left in the barrel after wine
has been in it for a year or two resembles more a dark, yucky
wine aquarium than driftwood. Once exhausted, a barrel can be
shaved and re-coopered for an additional cost, but it’s just that, an
additional cost which is dependent on the cooper’s skills to be
done properly or else the wines stored in the “rejuvenated” barrel
will take on port-like overtones. This is why some wineries
choose instead to use older, “neutal” barrels or small steel tanks
with various kinds of oak adjuncts like sticks, beads or cubes
inserted, or they will use larger staves with notches, hanging on a
lip around the edge of a large steel tank.
As you can see, what is mechanically a simple process –
separating liquid from most of the solids from fermentation –
becomes a much more complicated cultural and thus financial
process. How much of a difference this makes in consumer
awareness and apprecation is, of course, a subjective result. What
is undeniable, however, is the impact of oak on finished wine –
and its impact to the bottom line
for the winemaker both for costs
and for sales. Consider that
when next looking at a barrel
chai: it’s not just a room of wood
and liquid – it’s the recorder of
winegrowing decisions. Enjoy!

POPE VALLEY WINERY
A Century-Old Treasure

Sometimes, the best a destination has to offer can’t be found in your Frommer’s
guide. High above the heavily-trafficked Napa Valley floor and hundreds of
pretentious, monotonous wineries, sits a century-old treasure: Pope Valley Winery.
This scenic road less traveled, draped with vineyards and offering panoramic views
of the picturesque Napa Valley, leads you northeast of the Silverado Trail and back in
time to 40 quaint, country acres. Here, the Burgundy Wine and Olive Oil Factory was
founded in 1897, a three-story gravitational winery that shipped wine by train to Al
Capone’s Chicago speakeasies during Prohibition. A century later, it was purchased by
the Eakle family, long-time Pope Valley Residents, and given new life.
The winery no longer sells to gangsters, but not too much else has changed. Pope
Valley Winery’s mark of authenticity is signed and sealed with the nineteenth century
farming equipment, hand dug cave and original blacksmith shop, farmhouse and
wagon shed, all still on the property.
In 2009, siblings David Eakle as winemaker and Diana Eakle Hawkins as general
manager, took hold of the reins with the goal of bringing Pope Valley Winery to the
next level of quality, distinction and recognition. They hand-craft 5,000 cases of fine
wines a year, among them the Estate Reserve Cab and Merlot Eakle Ranch, which both
won Best in Class for their 2010 vintages at the San Francisco Chronicle Wine
Competition. They’re known for their Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel Port, and a very
rare Old Vine Chenin Blanc, and produce Sangiovese Rosé, Sauvignon Blanc and
Zinfandel as well.
Visitors – who are welcomed like old friends – can embark on one-of-a-kind tours
of the historic grounds and through the cave, which took nine long years to dig. A
variety of tasting options include custom wine flights, picnics, a private view of the
vineyards from their 1897 Lounge and a Brunch & Bubbles Experience for the early
birds. Wine Club members can even get away for a night with a stay in the original
farmhouse, sipping wine under a bright sky completely blanketed in stars.
No need for frills, extravagance or even paved roads. The only bells and whistles
you’ll find here is literally on old ringing bell on a big oak tree. Pope Valley Winery
prides itself in staying true to its historic, Old Napa roots, while making fine wines that
can compete with the best of the New Age Valley below.

Domaine Carneros Announces a Different
Kind of Blend with its ‘Recharge Station’
Energy Packed Pairing of Yoga, ‘Juicing’
and Farm-to-Fork Fare in Napa Valley
In the tech savvy San Francisco Bay Area, everyone’s rejuicing
their electric cars, smart phones, tablets and more, but all of this
technology can too often leave us feeling drained. Are you looking for
a healthy boost of energy but finding the cult cleansing just a bit too
extreme? Forgo the fads and set your sights on sparkling this year.
Practice everything in moderation at Domaine Carneros with its new
“Recharge Station,” an inspiring half-day experience where you and
your friends recharge with al-fresco yoga, a “juice bar” and custom
farm-to-fork lunch.
Vitality begins with Domaine Carneros’ Vinyasa in the Vineyard,
an hour-long, instructor-led yoga class with breathtaking views from
the chateau’s terrace. Set amidst the estate’s organic vineyards, sun
salutations seamlessly transition to cool-down and a guided tasting at
the “juice bar,” offering three unique barrel samples of future release
wines. With a glass half-full, stimulating discussion on winemaking
and organic farming precedes your preferred farm-to fork fare –
eating clean, vegan or gluten-free? Domaine Carneros will provide
your healthy choice for a revitalizing lunch perfectly paired with the
estate’s vegan wines.
Soaking in all of the different sights, sounds, tastes and people,
your mini-retreat to Domaine Carneros will leave you refreshed,
recharged, and feeling your best. So gather your urban tribe and
unplug to recharge with an escape to Napa Valley where you’ll find
your center, deepen your yoga practice and bubble-over with
gratitude.
The stimulating half-day experience is by appointment only for up

If it’s a good time with great wines you are looking for, avoid the guessing games and go
up to V. Sattui’s organic thirty-eight acres south of St. Helena to be treated right and to taste
some of the finest winery-only releases in the Valley without attitude or pretension.It’s that
very sense that the customer experience matters most that will have you return again and
again. V. Sattui, one of the originators of the modern wine country experience, hasn’t
forgotten why people come to Napa Valley, and they always overdeliver. We’re not the only
ones who have noticed, by the way; their head of winemakng, Brooks Painter, was named
Winemaker of the Year in 2013, and again in 2014. The winery itself has been named
Winery of the Year or Best Winery in Northern California more than half a dozen times in the
last decade.
At the same time, this 130-year-old winery is well known for “good wines at good prices,”
but that’s not what inspires such loyalty for the winery and its all-winery-only releases. It’s
that they’ve never forgotten where they’ve come from or what truly matters in the wine
business. The winery itself is named after owner Dario Sattui’s pioneering San Francisco
vintner great-grandfather, Vittorio Sattui, who founded the enterprise as “St. Helena Wine
Cellars” on then-Montgomery Street, now-Columbus Avenue in 1885. In 1899, the winery
relocated to the Mission District as “V. Sattui Wine Co.” The winery closed production in
1921 because of Prohibition, but Dario, remembering his childhood amongst the barrels and
tanks of the old underground cellar, refounded the winery in St. Helena in 1975, intent upon
a wine experience modeled on a small European village, where visitors would feel
encouraged to stay and feel part of “wine country” and its great wines without pretense or

large wallets. As Vittorio often
proclaimed, “There is nothing
like St. Helena grapes,” and as
folks say today, there is nothing
like V. Sattui anywhere else in the
Napa Valley.
Why? For starters, the winery
produces more than sixty
different wines, ranging from
vineyard-designate and reserve
Cabernet, Merlot, Petite Sirah,
Pinot Noir, Syrah and Zinfandel
bottlings; to a range of
Chardonnays, Rieslings and
Sauvignon Blancs; as well as
three rosés; dessert wines including Angelica,
Madeira, Muscat and port; Italian-inspired releases
of Sangiovese, Vin Santo and older releases
available nowhere else, so there is always
something for anyone desiring a particular wine or
style. Equally, the tasting fees are more than fair
given the modern Valley, reflecting a philosophy
that wine is for everyone.
There are also, depending on the day, four or
five different ways to taste: including two-and-ahalf acres of shaded picnic grounds with no charge
for picnicking with purchases made from their
extensive in-house deli, marketplace, and cheese
case that includes more than two hundred cheeses
from which to choose, including twice-daily pulled
mozzarella. V. Sattui also offers weekend
Barbecues, with wood-fired pizzas. . Group
activities for small or large parties can be arranged
by appointment; the winery is well known for
never failing to please at such gatherings. And in
line with this consumer-focused approach is the
lack of anything but word-of-mouth to spread the
news. Dario proudly remarks, “To this day, we
spend almost no money to advertise.” Once folks
visit, however, they keep coming back.
Clearly, thousands of annual case buyers and
Look for us on Facebook and become a Fan!
six-thousand Wine-of-the-Month Club members
can’t all be off course, right? How many other
wineries anywhere on the planet can boast that
level of loyal following without one bottle of
distribution? V. Sattui pioneered this direct sales
approach, making sure their efforts go into wines
consumers want. No outside distribution means
the ability to produce lots of different options
without regard for what the corporate giants have
dictated must be on store shelves. Dario’s
philosophy is pretty straightforward, another rarity
in today’s world: “I’ve always tried to make the best
product I could, sell it at a fair price and let the
product speak for itself.”
To that end, the winery also offers several
special ways to taste its best releases. The Estate
Tower Tasting offers select limited release, estate
wines, and older vintages in the relaxing warmth of
the fireplace each afternoon, subject to availability,
from mid-October through to March. Equally, the
Wine Geek Tour is aimed at the ultimate
enthusiast, taking visitors through the winery’s
history, its vineyards and the production and
barrel-selection process. Participants sample a
selection of highly rated wines and tank and barrel
samples, accompanied by a selection of housecured meats and artisanal
cheeses. Last but not least,
January 24th, brings the 2015
Barrel Tasting Party and its 60
wines and barrel samples of

5th Annual Napa Truffle Festival
World-Class Cuisine Meets Cutting-Edge Truffle Science, January 16-19
Dig truffles?
Join in the fun, science and culinary
adventure of a lifetime in pursuit of the rare
and delectable black truffle – specifically the
winter Périgord truffle: Tuber melanosporum
(aka black diamond) – which will be
discussed, examined, probed, prepared,
demonstrated and finally, paired with wines
and feasted upon for breakfast, lunch and
dinner at the fifth annual Napa Truffle
Festival!
Chief Scientist Dr. Paul Thomas and
Managing Director Robert Chang, you will
learn about the myriad of scientific factors
involved io successfully growing truffles.
The Science of Canine Truffle Scent Location
and Practical Implementation – A portion of
the seminar will include truffle dog training
discussions and demos, led by Alana McGee,
ATC’s Master Dog Trainer. Includes buffet lunch
on Friday and Saturday truffle orchard tour/dog
training demo at Sinskey Vineyards.
–– Friday, January 16 ––
–– Saturday, January 17 ––
Scientific Grower Truffle Cultivation Seminar
Truffle orchards are highly profitable, and
are an excellent and viable way to diversify
land usage. The demand for European black
truffles, the most sought after truffles in the
world (AKA “the diamond of the kitchen”), far
exceeds supply. Current black truffle
production is almost exclusively in Europe,
but now these truffles can be cultivated in
select areas around the world. North
America, especially regions like Napa and
Sonoma, offer particularly suitable
climates/soil.
Designed for potential truffle growers, this
in-depth seminar provides a detailed
technical overview of the science and
methodology involved in truffle cultivation.
Presented by American Truffle Company’s
All About Truffles
For the curious and the hungry, and anyone
who loves truffles (the fungi kind)
Come learn all about truffles – the cuisine,
the sex and the science! In this exciting,
comprehensive primer about all things
truffle, you will get tips on cooking with
truffles from our Michelin-star host chef Ken
Frank of La Toque who will share how to
handle fresh truffles in the kitchen, as well as
common myths and misconceptions about
the various truffle species and “products.”
You’ll also get a glimpse into the science of
truffles (including “sex and truffles”!) with
world-renowned truffle scientist Dr. Paul
Thomas and truffle expert Robert Chang;
plus why science plays a key role in how
truffles are grown and harvested.

History of Truffle hunting: Pigs, Dogs,
Robots and Common Misconceptions
To round up the truffle day, Master Dog
Trainer Alana McGee will guide you through
the fascinating and fun world of training
dogs to harvest truffles, complete with a
demonstration at a real truffle orchard,
located at Robert Sinskey Vineyards.
Includes: continental breakfast, All About
Truffles seminar, truffle orchard tour and dog
training demonstration. Winery Truffle Lunch at
Peju Province is optional.

The Scent of Truffles
Unlike mushrooms that grow above ground, truffles rely entirely on animals to eat them as a means of spore dispersal. And how do
they do that exactly? Well, by smelling good, of course! As truffles mature they develop aromas that signal to the surrounding
wildlife that there is something tasty hidden under the soil.
Dogs Lead the Hunt
To many growers, the real fun of growing truffles begins with the harvest. Equipped only with trusty truffle hunting dogs, harvesting
truffles is a hands-on endeavor (no mechanical harvesting devices are used). Almost any dog can be trained to truffle hunt, but here
in the burgeoning American truffle cultivation world, foraging dogs are commonly German Shepherds, Labradors, Golden Retrievers,
Belgian Malinois and other hunting breeds. In Italy though, site of some of the most famed and prodigious truffle and wild mushroom growing areas, the official Italian hunting dogs are Lagotto Romagnolos, or “lake dog from Romagna.”
These dogs who hunt for “black gold” are worth their weight in gold, fetching prices as high as $13,000. While commonly trained to
hunt for the most desirable truffles on an inoculated farm – the black Perigord (Tuber melanosporum), the white or Alba (Tuber
magnatum pico), the summer Burgundy (Tuber aestivum/uncinatum), and the Bianchetto (Tuber albidium pico) – they can also be
taught to hunt for mushrooms.
Along with dogs, female pigs have traditionally been used in truffle hunts in Europe, primarily because they’re attracted to the male
pig pheromones similar to those found in certain types of truffles. What’s the difference between the two hunters? The most significant advantage to using dogs – as well as having the companionship of your friendly canine companion on the hunt – is that while
they are excellent truffle hunters, they don’t eat them as do pigs. Another practical consideration is transport: a pooch, unlike a pig, is
generally eager to jump into your car’s backseat.

No one understands that premise more than Duffy Keys and Jim Borsack. When
the duo landed their extraordinary slice of Napa heaven in the Oakville AVA – next
door to some of the world’s most celebrated wineries, including Silver Oak,
PlumpJack, Groth, Gargiulo and Rudd – they were committed to producing handcrafted, beautifully balanced, food-friendly wines, and pairing them with exquisite
culinary creations. Then, for good measure, they decided to throw in a little fun, as
well. As Duffy explains, “We wanted to fashion a wine country experience that is
highly personal. Our wine guides will be with our guests throughout their visit. The
wine guide will take you through our culinary gardens, caves and create for you a
very individual Napa event, tailored to your specific taste and needs. We want you to
walk out the door and say ‘wow, that was lovely!’”
B Cellars, the first new winery on the Oakville Cross Road in eighteen years, has all
the makings of a dream-like wine country experience including a state-of-the art
winery and architecturally stunning tasting room that features panoramic views of

their verdant vineyards, a professional, interactive demonstration
kitchen, private event spaces opening onto grand courtyards, outdoor
tasting terraces and a 15,000-square-foot cave.
Visitors to thewinery can choose a variety of tasting experiences.
Their primary tour offers a lovely stroll through the picturesque
gardens, a swing through the impressive wine production rooms,
followed by a walk through the B Cellars’ caves, glass in hand.
Following the trek, guests enjoy a seated tasting of B Cellars Flagship
blended wine in the Hospitality House.
For another great experience, opt for the Private Appellation
tasting, at $65 per person, which includes the tour and then a tasting
of four Cabernet Sauvignons from the most distinct growing areas in
the Napa Valley. Each tasting of current and future release wine is
artfully paired with artisan cheese, charcuterie and seasonal
garnishes.
Guests can also savor B Cellars single-vineyard heritage wines
paired with artisan cheeses and charcuterie in the Beckstoffer
Heritage Room located within the caves at $95 per person. These
wines, made from grapes grown in pioneering grower Andy
Beckstoffer’s storied vineyards widely recognized as producing some
of the best wines for which the region is known, offer wine lovers the
opportunity to experience a truly historic perspective of Napa Valley’s
heritage. B Cellars is the only winery in the Napa Valley where guests
will be able to experience wines from each of these six storied
vineyards such as ToKalon and Dr. Crane vineyards. Says Duffy Keys,
“Our belief is that a winemaker, much like a good chef, needs to start
with fantastic ingredients.”
B Cellars’ wines are expertly guided to maturation by the talented
winemaker, Kirk Venge, the second generation of one of the Napa
Valley’s winemaking dynasties. While he is following in the footsteps
of his father, the renowned winemaker Nils Venge, Kirk has a unique
style of his own and a keen understanding of the Napa Valley and all
it has to offer.
If all of this seems like a bit overwhelming, B Cellars will
thoughtfully provide you with a full-service, on-site concierge to
assist you with tasting appointments and help you to fully enjoy all
that this fabulous wine country destination has to offer.
B Cellars is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. by appointment
only and features four proprietary blends, as well as Sauvignon Blanc,
rosé and eight small-production, vineyard-designate wines, including
Caldwell’s Syrah, Dr. Crane Cabernet Sauvignon, To Kalon Cabernet,
Georges III Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and Petite Sirah.

winemakers might use a grape variety they
would not normally bottle as a stand-alone
wine under their own brand. The grapes
may be sourced from a specific part of a
single vineyard, or the wine might be aged
using a unique barrel regime not regularly
employed by the winery. Some of the most
novel offerings are produced as joint lots –
multiple vintners who collaborate to create
a blend exclusively for the Premiere Napa
Valley brand.
The wines are offered as futures at the
auction only to licensed members of the
wine trade for resale to their customers and
ultra-premium wine collectors. Each bottle
is hand-labeled, individually numbered
and signed by the winemaker, similar to a
limited edition work of fine art.
The Premiere Napa Valley barrel tasting
and auction on February 21 is the

Cucina di Rosa
Valley in February 2015. Created solely for
the Premiere Napa Valley portfolio and
produced in quantities as small as 60 and
never more than 240 bottles, the wines will
be sold exclusively to members of the wine
trade during the nonprofit trade
association’s annual barrel tasting and
auction. Descriptions of the 225 lots can
be viewed at premierenapawines.com
“For Premiere Napa Valley, every
winemaker crafts a blend that is truly
unique from all of the other wines they
produce,” notes Michael Scholz of the St.
Supéry Estate Vineyards and Winery team
that is chairing the 2015 Premiere Napa
Valley Steering Committee. “The barrel
they create is the only barrel of its kind
making Premiere Napa Valley one of the
rarest wine brands in the world.”
Though reminiscent of how Hospice de
Beaune wines are produced, the process is

More than 90% of the wines are from the

culmination of a week rich in wine tasting and educational and
professional networking experiences hosted by both the NVV and
the vintners who have crafted the wines. Now in its 19th year,
Premiere Week, as it has come to be known, is an annual
homecoming for trade and media to spend intimate time with
Napa Valley winery owners and winemakers the world-renowned
region.
Licensed wine sellers, including retailers, restaurateurs and
wholesalers can still request a ticket to the invitation-only
Premiere Napa Valley event at premierenapawines.com. For those
not able to attend, absentee bids will be accepted beginning
January 15.
For members of the wine-loving public who would like to
purchase these rare examples of Napa Valley winemaking
innovation and creativity, there are several ways to secure
selections for private cellars: Wines that have already been released
from previous Premiere Napa Valley auctions are noted on the
website along with the wine seller’s contact information.
Consumers interested in purchasing the futures that will be sold in
February can contact their favorite retailer to bid on their behalf.

SONOMA COUNTY | WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK
Sonoma County Wineries Celebrate the Season
The Wine Road of Northern Sonoma County hosts its 23rd Annual
“Winter WINEland” event January 17 and 18, 2015
While the vineyards throughout Sonoma County might be
dormant all winter, Wine Road is once again shaking the cold
weather blues with its annual “Winter WINEland” event on Saturday,
January 17 and Sunday, January 18, 2015. In its 23rd year, “Winter
WINEland” invites guests to create their own journey through wine
country discovering new wines, tasting limited production wines,
new releases or library wines. At participating wineries throughout
the Alexander, Dry Creek and Russian River Valleys, every winery
will have something with a special event price for the weekend.
Attendees will save on wine, logo items, gourmet food products or
fun wine country gift items. This is a weekend to save!
GEYSERVILLE
Tickets include wine tastings
at all participating wineries,
including some that are usually
open by appointment only.

WOODFOUR BREWING COMPANY
Leading the Way in Food & Beer Pairing Experiences

The Barlow is Sebastopol’s newest and most hip place to be in Sonoma County’s world of food
and drink. Home to dozens of artisanal boutiques, local-centric food markets, wine tasting rooms
and craft breweries, The Barlow truly has something for everyone – much like Woodfour
Brewing Company’s eclectic menu and extensive craft beer offerings. Woodfour Brewing
Company is the only craft brewery in The Barlow with a local, seasonal menu that is meant to be
paired with beer. The array of farmhouse-inspired craft beer is just as eclectic as their delicious
lunch and dinner menus. Rightly so, because Executive Chef Aaron Wright works closely with
Co-Owner and Brewmaster Seth Wood to develop invigorating dishes that are perfectly tailored to
fit the beer styles.
“When it comes to food and beer pairing, beer takes a seasonal role and then we complement
the beer with dishes that are influenced by the season,” Owner Olav Vier says. Currently, their
lunch and dinner menus feature winter root vegetables such as potatoes and beets, alongside
dishes with hardy legumes and beans. Creamy cheeses, pickled goodies, flavorful appetizers and
diverse salads – all designed to complement the flavors of the beers – make way for the seafood
and meat portion of the menu, which is full of arctic char, Dungeness crab, farm chicken,
bratwurst and pork belly.
“There’s a certain expectation people have when they come to a place like this – a brewery,”
Wood states. With a menu that features sophisticated dishes, such as the braised pork belly with
sunchoke, apple crumble, chicories and baby leeks, guest expectations are surely exceeded once
the food comes to the table. Pair these phenomenal dishes with the nuanced and flavorful
selection of craft beers, and you’ve got yourself an authentic “wine country” food and beer pairing

experience. “We really want to put the beer on the table right beside the great food experience. It’s such a
familiar concept in the wine industry, but the food and beer experience is mostly unexplored,” Vier says.
Until now, Vier was right, but things have changed since Woodfour Brewing Company has stepped onto
the scene.
“We’re a little different and we want to be,” Vier proudly states. “We want to be a destination spot . . .
and inspire conversation – get people talking about it.” With flavorful and exciting matchups like the
melted Raclette cheese with yukon gold potatoes, cornichons, parsley and pickled onions alongside the
Berliner Weisse, there is certainly a great deal to talk about. This particular dish is wonderfully balanced
with the rich, hardy potatoes and creamy melted cheese topped with the tangy pickles and subtly sweet
pickled onions. The Berliner Weisse, a beer that is made using a traditional sour mash and Brettanomyces
yeast, is the perfect accompaniment to this winter dish. The way the beer and food mingle on the palate,
creating synergies and juxtapositions of texture and flavor, is lovely.
Another amazing dish, the arctic char with curried cauliflower, beluga lentils and maitake mushrooms,
really pairs well with Wood’s mouthwatering Saison. This beer is one of their regulars on tap and is a
Sonoma County interpretation of the classic French and Belgian style farmhouse beer. Its creamy body,
freshly baked bread flavors and richness make this beer an excellent choice with the tender and juicy
arctic char. Chef Wright has seasoned the arctic char perfectly with a nice crispy outside while still
maintaining tenderness on the inside; the curried cauliflower and spiced beluga lentils give the beer an
extra punch of spiciness on the palate. Together, this dish and the Saison become a pleasurable
playground of flavors for the taste buds. Other amazing dishes that paired exceptionally well with specific
beers are the heirloom bean cassoulette with the Roger (a West Coast Baltic Stout) and the salad of apple
and chicory with the Sonoma Fest (an Oktoberfest Vienna malted beer).
With Olav Vier at the helm of this fine food and artisanal craft beer destination, Executive Chef Aaron
Wright and Co-Owner and Brewmaster Seth Wood are given the freedom to express their creative
innovations in the world of food and drink. There is a true synergy between this team of three and with
each dish served alongside each craft beer, guests will surely agree that Woodfour Brewing Company is
clearly paving the way in phenomenal food and beer pairing experiences.

WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK | SONOMA COUNTY
INN AT THE TIDES
Tranquility and rejuvenation
on the Sonoma Coast
If you’re seeking sanctuary along the Sonoma coast, steer
your way to The Inn at the Tides in Bodega Bay. Whether
visiting for dinner, or stealing away for the night, it’s an ideal
Northern California Wine Country retreat. This seaside
destination is a place to relax and breathe in brisk, salty air
– a short scenic drive from most San Francisco Bay Area
cities.
A distinctive property
The Inn at the Tides’ quaint cluster of guest lodges are
tiered along a hillside property, designed to preserve and
meld with the coastal surroundings. A majority of the first
floor rooms have private patios, where guests often catch a
glimpse of deer and other wildlife scampering throughout
the grounds. Bodega is lively spot for bird watchers – where
hundreds of birds migrate – such as egrets, blue herons,
sandpipers and ospreys.
Dining, docks and drinks
Located at the inn, open for dinner, is the Bay View
Restaurant serving “delizioso” Italian cuisine Wednesday
through Sunday. It’s fine dining (yet casual dress) boasts
sweeping views of the tranquil Bodega harbor.
Throughout the year, the Bay View Restaurant hosts its
popular Dinner with the Winemaker series. Guests mingle
and dine with a guest winemaker on these select nights.
Each dinner starts with an optional no-host hors d’oeuvres
reception at 6:30 p.m., followed by a sit-down prix fixe
dinner at 7 p.m. Each course is paired with wines from the
winemaker featured that night, such as: Kosta Browne
Winery and Trecini Cellars on January 30, Benziger Family
Winery February 13, Vermeil Wines March 20, Ramazzotti
Wines April 24 and more.
Directly across the highway is the popular The Tides
Wharf Restaurant and Bar – part of the Inn at the Tides
property. It’s a family-friendly restaurant, gift shop and fish
market that’s been a bustling favorite of locals and visitors
alike for more than 50 years. Open seven days a week, the
restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner with
panoramic bay views. Find comfort in a bowl of clam
chowder, delve hands-first into steaming Cioppino (bib
recommended), or crack into fresh-caught crabs during the
height of local Dungeness season – typically December
through July. (The Tides hosts all-you-can-eat crab feeds
January 9, 23, February 6, 20, March 6 and March 13.
Don’t miss out!)

Season of the Olive Arrives in the Sonoma Valley
The fourteenth annual Sonoma
Valley Olive Season, a celebration of
the olive harvest and an agricultural
and epicurean showcase, will take
place January through February 2015. Encompassing a range of
exceptional events, culinary thrills and Valley-wide promotions –
from the Blessing of the Olives ceremony to an elegant Feast of the
Olive Dinner – the upcoming Season of the Olive promises to
transform the winter months in Sonoma into a celebration of the
senses.
Key events and promotions are planned Valley-wide in honor of
the two-month celebration. On Saturday, January 3, the traditional
Blessing of the Olives ceremony will take place within the historic
Mission San Francisco Solano. In addition, local restaurants and
lodging properties will offer olive season packages and promotions,
including exclusive olive-inspired menu items and spa treatments
throughout the winter months. Throughout the Season of the Olive,
visitors will have the opportunity to roll up their sleeves for an olive
curing workshop, attend festive events such as the annual Martini
Madness competition, and enjoy an array of activities from olive oil
tastings and art exhibits to live music, family activities and food and
wine pairings. In addition, guests will have the daily opportunity to
taste local, freshly pressed olive oil at The Olive Press, Figone’s
www.WineCountryThisWeek.com
Olive Oil Company and B.R. Cohn
Winery & Olive Oil Company nearly
every day throughout the season. A
complete list of events and
promotions can be found at www.olivefestival.com.
Season of the Olive favorites slated to return this season include
the highly-anticipated Feast of the Olive Dinner on January 31.
This multi-course, olive-inspired ceremonial prepared by Sonoma
Valley’s finest chefs, is one of the Season’s anchor events and is a
food-lover’s paradise. Preceding Feast of the Olive, master
bartenders and chefs will gather to compete for the best martini at
the wildly popular Martini Madness, where patrons can sample
each concoction and place their votes (January 9; 5-7 p.m.,
MacArthur Place). Then, from February 13-15, the Season of the
Olive will culminate with the Olive Season Finale Weekend, a
magnificent celebration of events, dinners and tastings. More
information about the weekend can be dinner found here:
www.olivefestival.com/sonoma-valley-olive-season-finalweekend.html.

including event specifics and information on sponsors and

WALT Wines Introduces New Educational Experience
‘Appellation Exploration’ Launching at Sonoma Tasting Room
WALT’s Upcoming Appellation Exploration Schedule:
WALT Wines, producer of premier Pinot Noir and Chardonnay
wines sourced from celebrated vineyards along the California coast
and Oregon, announces the launch of the new educational
workshop series, Appellation Exploration. The six-part series kicks
off in January and will be offered at the WALT Tasting Room in the
trendy Sonoma Plaza. The workshop will focus on the importance
of terroir, climate and elevation and is led by some of the wine
industry’s most reputable talent.
“Our enthusiastic Pinot fans want to learn more about
appellations,” says President Mike Reynolds, “and we are excited to
offer this opportunity through the Appellation Exploration.
Expanding our Tasting Room experience will help showcase the
diversity of our portfolio while sharing insight into our premier
vineyard sources and winemaking techniques.”
WALT’s Appellation Exploration series takes place on the second
Thursday of each month and will be hosted by a different wine
expert in areas such as winemaking, wine education, vineyard
operations, select WALT vintners and more. Additional guest
speakers will also be included in each discussion sharing their
unique insights. Seasonal bites provided by Sonoma-based vendors
will be served at the end of the workshop.
Under the direction of award-winning HALL and WALT Director
of Winemaking Steve Leveque and Winemaker Megan Gunderson,
WALT has been praised by the industry’s top wine critics. Since
inception in 2011, over 40 wines have been rated 90 points and
above by numerous critics including the Wine Spectator, Wine
Enthusiast and Wine Advocate.

Wine Country This Week Launches Free App
Winery Geek: California’s Most Comprehensive Tasting Room Resource App
Wine Country This Week recently launched Winery Geek, a
comprehensive winery tasting room resource app for iPhone and
Android. The app is free to download and features an all-inclusive
listing of over 2,100 California wineries as far north as Mendocino
and as far south as San Diego. “We felt like there was a growing need
in the market for a comprehensive guide for visiting wineries in
California – presented in a convenient and accessible app format,”
states Mike Giangreco, Publisher of Wine Country This Week.
Winery Database
What makes Winery Geek so convenient is the ability to search for
wineries nearby. Users are provided with a list or map view that
indicates the wineries closest to his or her location; users can click on
any given winery/location and then view a detailed listing including
hours, directions, a click-to-call link, a link that pulls up the winery’s
official website and a link that pulls up the winery’s Yelp page – all
without leaving the Winery Geek app.
As the leading wine tourism publication in California’s wine
country since 1981, Wine Country This Week is “best equipped to
meet this need for comprehensive information about California’s
wineries,” Giangreco says. “We have a complete and expansive
database that we feel is highly beneficial to individuals who enjoy
wine tasting in California. We are very excited to offer Winery Geek
as a service of Wine Country This Week.”
Search Features
Unique features of Winery Geek include the ability to search for
wineries by varietals offered or specific attributes including caves,
family or pet friendly, food and wine pairing, picnic areas, vineyard or
New WineryGeek app now available for iPhone and Android!
winery tours and much more! These unique search features help
narrow down their choices when selecting which wineries to visit.
Tasting Deals
Since 1981, Wine Country This Week has maintained longstanding relationships with wineries, making them perfectly poised to
bring Winery Geek users a wide range of tasting deals. Users are be
able to visit a winery, claim the tasting deal with the app and
experience a range of savings on individual wine tasting visits.
Such features are distinguishing marks of Winery Geek and are the
reasons why the initial response to the app has been overwhelmingly
positive. Since the soft launch in July, Winery Geek has seen over
3,500 downloads in just two months!

This Week, visit www.winerygeek.com. To join the conversation,
