Broker & Owner

If one looks up the meaning of the word Luxury - or in these times, “Googles it” - one will find words such as great comfort, extravagance, grandeur, splendor, etc. associated with it. All of these words do describe a part of what a luxury home brings along with the basic functions of shelter and the place families are raised and lives are lived. However, in the business of real estate, luxury also brings along with it some other descriptive terms. Luxury homes demonstrate creativity, definition, a theme which reflects the owner’s view of life, pride, and most of all, a statement. These factors all add up to the impetus behind actually buying and living in a luxurious residence. It feels good to drive into a gated environment, or to listen to the melodic cadence of a water feature bringing calm to the surroundings, or the incredible variety of birds and other small contributors to the peaceful atmosphere of a truly luxurious property. In other words, there is so much more to home than just the building. It truly is an environment of your design and preference. And why is that so important? Simple…those who can afford such pieces of natural art have worked diligently to be able to afford it. The lifestyle is earned, and rightfully so. When you browse through our offering of some of the luxurious properties our company and Sales Executives currently offer for your consideration, you will see some or all of those factors demonstrated in many of these prime examples. Coupled with living in the areas we serve, the lifestyle could hardly be more attractive. We hope you enjoy perusing these pages. Of course, for the ultimate experience in becoming acquainted with our Luxury Collection, give one of our Sales Executives a call and ask to go out and personally visit any of the homes you see here. They will be happy to assist you and to begin the adventure of creating the environment you choose for your own interpretation of the luxury lifestyle!

Wine and Happiness Sommelier Jörn “Joey” Kleinhans trains new and experienced oenophiles on how to get the most enjoyment out of wine. By Alyssa Gautieri

At

only three years old, Sommelier Jörn “Joey” Kleinhans discovered his interest and passion for wine in his hometown of Etzenborn, Germany. “I started tasting wine at a very early age,” says Kleinhans, who was allowed to sample wine at family gatherings. “Many people appreciate wine, not necessarily for its alcoholic element, but because they see the beauty and complexity in wine,” he says. Although he takes great care not to condone underage drinking, Kleinhans acknowledges that the culture throughout Europe is very different than in the United States. The U.S. legal drinking age of 21 is much more restrictive than the range of 16 to 18 in most European countries, which he notes presents challenges for young people who want to pursue higher education or a career studying wine.

When Kleinhans rediscovered his passion for wine in his 20s, he felt dissatisfied with the conversation surrounding wine in America, and he was inspired to start The Sommelier Company. “I thought we can do something amazing here,” he recalls. “Why don’t we bring together America’s best sommeliers around the country, and put them in front of those audiences that can appreciate them properly?’” As the founder of The Sommelier Company, Kleinhans works alongside a team of more than 100 sommeliers and wine educators to expand the country’s passion for wine. Whether guiding wine tasting experiences, designing restaurant wine programs, creating executive wine education programs or expanding homeowners’ personal wine collections, The Sommelier Company has become a nationwide resource for wine expertise. Wine tasting events are available for anywhere between 1 and 1,000 guests. When Kleinhans leads wine and whisky tasting workshops, he likes to keep things “entertaining and provocative, but in a way that people without prior knowledge can relate.” While Kleinhans understands the value of entertainment, he also prides himself on his ability to educate future wine enthusiasts. “While you are perceiving these complex flavors [in the wine], we create the proper context that make these tastings memorable and useful so that you remember it for the rest of your life,” says Kleinhans. “A well-executed wine tasting is a dramatic and lifechanging event for people who want to learn more about wine, as well as for those who already know about wine and want to learn more.” For Kleinhans, the most challenging part of being a sommelier is mastering objective communication. “The hardest part in life, in general, is to communicate with people,” he says. “If you do that well, then your success can be unlimited. Speaking about wine with clarity, and especially with the right hierarchy of knowledge — starting with the fundamental knowledge and then building upon it — is very challenging.” Kleinhans selects to work only with other sommeliers that can communicate well — which he says, shockingly, is the minority of sommeliers.


Among his many tips for wine drinkers, Kleinhans encourages people of all ages to lead a “life toward enjoyment and happiness,” and he believes wine plays a major role. “Life is there to be enjoyed, and we find that — and millions of people agree — wine keeps your attention for many years,” he adds.

Tips from a Sommelier 1. Start with medium-quality wines

“One common misconception is that you have to work yourself up from lower quality to higher quality wine,” Kleinhans says. “You need to, at least, start with medium-quality wines.” The desirable flavors and proper harmony of medium quality wines will draw you into the world of wine, says Kleinhans, who recommends beginning with wines priced between 20 and 50 dollars. “Good wines cost a lot of money, but medium- and high-quality wine will become a huge life enhancement over many years,” he adds.

2. Focus on essential classic grape and region combinations

Wine lovers who start studying textbooks about wine appreciation are soon intimidated by the number of grapes and regions. “Many people are so overwhelmed by wine, [but] wine is actually very easy to learn if you study the classics,” Kleinhans says. For each grape variety, there are one or two essential regions, according to Kleinhans. The grape-region combinations to study first include Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa, California, blends based on Sangiovese from Tuscany, Italy, and Riesling from Mosel, Germany. Meanwhile France, the world’s most important wine producing country, is home to many classics — including blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from Bordeaux, Pinot Noir from Burgundy, and Grenache from the Southern Rhone Valley. Other important regions include Australia, Argentina and Spain. “Study these wine classics first,” Kleinhans says. “Once you study those, you’ll have a good overview of the world of wine.”

3. Bring wine into the home

“Homeowners are building their life around wine,” says Kleinhans, who has noticed the rise in wine cellars, rooms and fridges within luxury homes. “There is a direct relationship between real estate and wine [as] people are building and renting houses that accommodate their lifestyle.” Designed to be attractive additions to a home, in-home wine storage merges function with design — which also “increases real estate values tremendously,” according to Kleinhans.

4. Simple food pairings are the way to go

When it comes to food and wine pairings, Kleinhans loves classic flavors — such as Sauvignon Blanc from France with scallops and oysters. For a red wine pairing, he recommends Barolo — or the King of Wines — with wild boar, truffle and a heavy mushroom sauce. At Thanksgiving dinner, Pinot Noir perfectly pairs with turkey and cranberry sauce. “Those are three classics right there that will always make you happy,” Kleinhans says.

THE SUNSHINE KIDS

With four local offices in Ventura County, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Realty is dedicated to giving back to the community and those in need. The company is a proud sponsor of The Sunshine Kids Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to creating memorable experiences for children with cancer. They provide a variety of programs and events, free of charge, for kids who are receiving cancer treatments in hospitals.

On June 20th, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Realty hosted a kickoff event to raise money for The Sunshine Kids. The fundraiser was a jam packed Movie Night to see The Incredibles 2. The movie theatre was filled with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Realty professionals with the Sunshine Kids and their families in attendance. After receiving positive feedback from the Movie Night, the company wanted to take the fundraising up a notch. On September 15th, they hosted a 1920’s themed Great Gatsby Gala at the Las Posas Country Club. With nearly 200 guests in attendance, the company raised over $20,000 out of the $30,000 raised thus far through tickets and silent auction items. The local community donated over 100 silent auction items to the event and it was an absolute hit. With 1920’s dancers, celebrity guest speakers and a great audience, it was a very successful fundraiser. A few days later, on September 19th, five real estate agents had the opportunity to participate in a trip to Disneyland with The Sunshine Kids. The organization brought 30 Sunshine kids from hospitals all over the country to the most magical place on earth! In attendance were Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices volunteers and medical representatives. The day was spent taking the kids on the rides at Disneyland and making them smile! With a mission of raising $50,000 this year, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Realty will continue to host events and fundraisers to reach their goal.
