Bennett Lane Winery A Favorite Stop for Succulent Cabernets

Open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

3340 Highway 128, just over two miles north of Calistoga www.bennettlane.com (707) 942-6684 | 1-877-MAX-NAPA TASTING EXPERIENCES Signature Flight includes 4 wines at $20/flight Reserve Flight: 3 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignons, $45/flight Wine Blending Experience features a vineyard tour and a sensory evaluation seminar focused on Cabernet, Merlot and Syrah – the prin- cipal components in Bennett Lane’s signature red Maximus blend — followed by a customblending experience. This experience costs $225 per person, or for groups of 6 or more, $175 per person due to setup, exclusivity, and the materials involved.

Plan on popping the question?

Ask about the Bennett Lane Proposal Package 22

As the warmth of summer days roll into Napa Valley, a fool-proof way to make the most of the season is a day spent at the Bennett Lane Winery in Calistoga. One of our favorite stops every year, Bennett Lane is known for its succulent Cabernets, their signature “feasting wine,” Maximus, and for one of the finest visitor experiences in the valley. Founded by Randy and Lisa Lynch in 2003, Bennett Lane’s off-the-beaten-track location and friendly tasting room offers visitors to Napa a “secret gem” and a great way to learn about – and try – some of Napa’s best wines in a more intimate setting.

Bennett Lane’s Cabs have continuously garnered critical acclaim. In the short period that the winery has been open they have received an incredible 41 scores of 90+ points between Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast and Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. Year after year the popular blend of Cabernet, Merlot and Syrah has won accolades from critics and visitors alike. The “red feasting wine,” as Maximus is affectionately referred to on the label, demonstrates owners Randy and Lisa Lynch’s commitment to making wine an integral part of entertaining with family and friends. The current vintage of 2010 is available in the tasting room – at $42 per bottle this is the best deal in the valley.

Bennett Lane’s wines are crafted to be approachable, yet complex – or what owner Randy Lynch calls “the best of both worlds, meaning you can drink them today, but they are structured enough to cellar for several years. My goal is for us to make consistent wines – both in quality and taste – from year to year, so that consumers can trust Bennett Lane wines,” he says.

In addition to the elegantly appointed tasting bar, visitors to the winery can also experience their new “Seated Tasting” option. This offering, available the year ’round, allows groups of 2-6 people to do a deep dive into the winery’s more exclusive wine offerings under the guidance of a personal wine specialist. Guests will be greeted upon arrival by their host and seated at a private table. The specialist will then lead the group through a tasting of four of Bennett Lane’s top end wines. In this intimate and relaxed

Wine Country This Week >> WINE COUNTRY NEWS

setting (a bit like having a personal wine steward in your own living room), there will be plenty of time for tasting and exploring each wine in depth. Moving at a leisurely pace, the personal wine expert will share the full story on each bottling and answer any questions regarding winemaking, fruit sourcing, cellaring and more. Priced at $35 per person, it’s a classic example of the intimate hospitality that Bennett Lane is known for – comfortable, relaxed, informative and above all, friendly.

The Signature Tasting Flight at Bennett Lane is $20 and includes four of Bennett Lane’s wines: 2015 Reserve Chardonnay, 2010 Maximus Red Feasting Wine, 2012 & 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon. Cabernet enthusiasts can upgrade to their Reserve Tasting Flight for $45, and get a chance to try three of the wineries top tier Cabernets, including the Lynch Family Vineyard Calistoga Cabernet with less than 100 cases produced.

Be sure to put Bennett Lane on your short-list of must-visit tasting rooms as the production is small and the Cabernets sell out quickly. Visiting Bennett Lane affords tasters another rarity with a small winery – a likely run-in (and perhaps a last minute barrel tasting if you’re lucky!) with owners Randy and Lisa Lynch.

Bennett Lane Winery is located in an understated Mediterranean-style building at the secluded and beautiful northern end of Napa Valley, and is well worth the drive.

Just north of the lovely, laid back, wine region called Hopland, near the quaint town of Ukiah, there lies the beautiful and historic Jaxon Keys Winery and Distillery.

Jaxon Keys owners Ken and Diane Wilson pride themselves in practicing sustainable farming producing close to 5,000 cases focusing on estate-grown Rhone varietals and more.

At Jaxon Keys, you feel that celestial experience starting with their hand-crafted wines that speak to the soul. It’s easy to fall in love with all of their varietals, but it’s the Rhones that are riveting!

Start with the Estate Grenache, Jon Vincent ... a delicious blend of wild cherry, dried strawberry and raspberry mingles with traces of espresso and toasted oak. Next try the GSM (a Grenache, Syrah and Merlot blend) from the first sip, bright, fresh flavors fill the palate! The GPS (Grenache, Primitivo and Syrah) has deep, dark fruit aromas fused with traces of oak and new leather. Anna Mac Estate Syrah is lush with blackberry and plum, and finishes with rich and intense Petite Sirah.

Don’t forget to try their deliciously creamy brandy – America’s Best Brandy as named nine years running by the American Distilling Institute – a must taste!

The Jaxon Keys tasting room staff are gracious hosts, both welcoming and warm! They are passionate about their wine and

PRAGER WINERY & PORT WORKS Living the “Sweet Life” Wine lovers visiting Napa can be overwhelmed by the hustle, bustle, high-tech tasting rooms, over-the-top wineries and crowds. A visit to Prager Winery & Port Works, transports visitors back to a time when things were slower, families worked together and the wine producers were simple farmers. At Prager the pace is slow and easy, with stunning wines and offers visitors a chance to take a deep breath, relax and enjoy some of the best Napa ports in the world.

The Prager family has a long history in the Napa Valley. Jim Prager is from Orange County, California and grew up among the agriculture of this part of the southland, back when it was really Orange County with its orange groves and other agricultural products. Jim had always been crazy about port, and after tasting some incredible California ports, he moved to the Napa Valley and the first crush was in 1979. For their first crush they produced Cabernet, Zinfandel and their first Noble Companion port. Jim realized that by producing port style wines it would give them their own unique niche. That strategy has made them one of the most beloved producers of port in the United States.

An Eclectic Tasting Room Style With hints of vintage rock wafting across the air, visitors walk through the barrel room to reach the tasting room. The walls are covered with currency from nearly every country in the world — a decorative motif that Jeff Prager said started when his father Jim lightheartedly posted a dollar bill from a survey in the upper corner of the room. “It’s sort of gotten a little out of control,” said 32

Jeff, “Visitors started posting their own dollars, rubles or whatever.

Over the years, they sometimes come back and look for the bills they put up.”

Now the collection has spread into the barrel room and a newly constructed tasting area, as there is literally no more room in the original tasting room. “We even have some currency up there from countries that no longer exist,” said Jeff’s brother, John. “Foreign visitors see the walls, and they empty their wallets of old, out-ofcirculation bills. They sign their names, look for their own spot. It’s like they’ve been looking for someplace to put them.”

Extraordinary White Port Pairs with Sweet and Savory Aria White Port is a semi-sweet wine named after the family’s first granddaughter, Aria. This elegant wine is made from 100% Napa Valley Chardonnay, and was aged for three years in oak barrels. The wine offers flavors of baked pears and apples, a hint of buttered popcorn with a light hazelnut finish. Obvious pairings for this wine would be crème brulee, or other dessert, however; it also is a great compliment to savory crab, halibut and oysters on the half-shell.

Visiting Prager The winery is located at 1281 Lewelling Lane, St. Helena and is open by appointment only daily from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

On Wednesday and Sunday the winery opens at 11:00 a.m. The tasting is $20 per person and visitors taste five premium ports and wines and visitors keep the souvenir glass.

Reflecting the humor and good nature of the Prager Family, another iconic spot at the winery is the Prager “website.” In the winery there is a small window filled with ancient etched port bottles and is overrun by spiders and spider webs.

Make their your way to the northern edge of Napa Valley into the quaint town of Calistoga, a treat is in store the minute you walk through the door of August Briggs.

The small, airy tasting room right on the main drag of Lincoln Avenue is home to the winery’s trove of eclectic varietals. With a continually rotating tasting menu, visitors will find plenty of options from which to choose. Some of those varietals might be rare to Napa Valley, like the Charbono, a complex red that grows on only 86 acres in California.

Co-owner Matt Gasco said the winery is turning its focus more on rare varietals, like Charbono, because wine drinkers are becoming more experimental. Though the standards like Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon will always be in large demand, the younger generation of wine drinkers, as with food, are into trying new things.

“Everyone knows Cab is good in Napa,” he said. “But there’s so much else. We can grow so many varietals here, and do them well.

We want to showcase that.”

Some of the rarer wines August Briggs is dabbling in are Pinot Blanc and Pinot Meunier, plus a few different takes on Pinot Noir and Zinfandel. In all, August Briggs makes 15 wines from 11 varieties, all sourced from local, single vineyards.

But since the winery’s production is small, the best way to secure a bottle of your favorite wine is to join the wine club. Members have priority purchasing power for the small-batch wines that don’t always make it to the tasting room before selling out. They also receive discounts, special promotions and invitations to winery events held several times a year.

Coming into the tasting room for a flight can help introduce curious wine drinkers to the portfolio. August Briggs rotates its menu a few times a month and builds it around the seasons.

Visitors can always choose among two flights of three wines to try and will be led through the tasting by a knowledgeable staff member. Like anything, good help is hardHomewood to find, and Gasco said, Winery he and his co-owner are very particular to hire people who have deep knowledge about wine and the world beyond so they can give visitors a personalized experience that will deepen their enjoyment of the wine and answer any questions they may have.

The tasting room is open year round 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily, Tuesday by appointment only, and seasonally they stay open until 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday. No matter the season or the time of day, August Briggs will be a welcoming, friendly wine experience for novices and connoisseurs. >> SHOSHANA HEBSHI

Sutter Home Tasting Room...

You’ll Feel Right at Home at this Iconic Napa Valley Destination Located just south of St. Helena situated between some of the Napa Valley’s most famous wineries is the beautiful and historic Sutter Home and its popular tasting room. Sutter Home completely breaks the mold of the high-priced tradition of Napa tasting fees and offers visitors complimentary tastings that include six wines.

Sutter Home’s wine portfolio offers up an amazing selection of 23 delicious wines that aim to please. Wines include Chardonnay Moscato, Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, Malbec, Merlot, Moscato, Pink Moscato, Pinto Grigio, Pinot Noir, Red Blend, Red Moscato, Riesling, Riesling Moscato, Sangria, Sauvignon Blanc, Sweet Red, White Merlot, White Zinfandel and Zinfandel.

The grounds are gorgeous and visitors are encouraged to take a self-guided tour of the property and enjoy the stunning gardens and photograph the exterior of the original family home.

History & Family The history of Sutter Home Winery dates back to 1874, when a Swiss-German immigrant named John Thomann established a small winery and distillery in the heart of California’s Napa Valley. After John died in 1900, his heirs sold the winery and the fine Victorian home to another Swiss family, the Leuenbergers. The Leuenbergers rechristened the estate Sutter Home (after Lina Leuenberger’s father, John A. Sutter). The advent of Prohibition in 1918 shut down Sutter Home, and it remained abandoned until 1947, when it was purchased by John and Mario Trinchero, Italian immigrant brothers whose family had long been active in the Italian wine business.

Relocating from New York City to the small town of St. Helena, the Trincheros began producing a diverse assortment of Napa Valley wines.

The family believed in the value of hard work, ingenuity, humility and integrity that have characterized them ever since.

Follow us on Twitter @WineCountryTW

Each member of the family was a part of the business, mother Mary kept the books, children Vera and Roger helped on the bottling line, and brother Bob worked with his father Mario and Uncle John, cleaning out tanks and barrels. The family’s unity kept Sutter Home together and eventually made it the success it is today. With its creation of White Zinfandel in the early 1970s and the introduction of high-quality, affordably priced varietal wines during the 1980s and ‘90s, Sutter Home in the Napa Valley became a household name and the second largest, independent family-run winery in the United States.

Best Gift Shop in the Napa Valley Along with great wines, Sutter Home features the best gift shop in the Valley, and visitors will be sure to find wine country related items to bring home to family and friends. Wine-themed hostess gifts, cute shirts, tote bags, cookbooks, picnic supplies, specialty foods and sauces, wine glasses and lots of fun items to explore.

HUGE BEAR WINES Ursa Gigantes and Pork Ragu with Polenta!

They say big flavors call for a big wine. And that’s exactly what you can expect from this mouth-watering Pork Ragu with Grilled Polenta and the 2013 Huge Bear Ursa Gigantes – a Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot blend. As our days get busier as the weather gets warmer, this easy-to-prepare slow-cooker ragu is perfect for spring and summer. Herbal notes like thyme, rosemary and bay from the pork will fill your house and cause your stomach to stir well before dinner time.

As any good cook will tell you, choose a wine to cook with that you would serve with the finished meal. And this lush, fruit-laden Cabernet blend happens to be a perfect choice for both. The canned tomatoes and an addition of wine during the braising process keeps the dish from feeling too heavy, lending a touch of acidity to the finished sauce.

For more bold tasting recipes that never shy away from the big flavors of Huge Bear wines, visit their website hugebearwines.com or, stop in to their tasting room located in the historic bank building in downtown Calistoga at 1373 Lincoln Avenue to sample their entire range of red and white small-production wines.

Varietals Rosé, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Red Blend, Cabernet Franc

“Come in, wine is open, and it’s awesome.”

PORK RAGU WITH GRILLED POLENTA (SERVES 6) Ingredients • 3 pounds boneless pork shoulder (Boston butt), cut into 3 pieces • Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil • 1 large onion, finely chopped • 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped • 1 6-ounce can tomato paste • 1/2 cup 2013 Huge Bear Ursa Gigantes • 1 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes • 4 sprigs fresh thyme • 3 sprigs fresh rosemary • 2 dried bay leaves • 1 tube, 24 ounces, prepared polenta, cut into ½-inch slices Preparation Heat oil in crock-pot on high. Add onion and garlic to pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is starts to brown and caramelize, about 8-12 minutes.

Add tomato paste, stirring occasionally until slightly darkened in color, about 5-8 minutes. Add wine and cook until reduced by about half, about 5-8 minutes. Add canned tomatoes, crushing with your hands as you ago, then add thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves; stir in 2 cups of water.

Season pork with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large heavy pot over medium.

Cook pork, turning often until evenly brown, 10-12 minutes. Transfer to crock-pot along with pan drippings. Reduce heat to low and cook 6-8 hours.

Once cooked thoroughly the pork is falling-apart tender and the sauce is thickened. Using two forks, break up pork into pieces or shred it (your choice!); taste and season with salt and pepper.

Slice polenta and brush lightly with oil. Grill 2-3 minutes on each side to score and warm the slices. Top with warm Ragu. Serve with 2013 Ursa Gigantes. Enjoy!

2017 Broadway Under the Stars Season in the Winery Ruins at Jack London Park Outdoor Broadway Concerts Performed by Accomplished Broadway & Hollywood Artists, named by USA Today’s 10 Best as the #2 “Outdoor Concert Venue You Shouldn’t Miss” Transcendence Theatre Company presents their 2017 Broadway Under the Stars season—spectacular outdoor Broadway concerts in Sonoma Wine Country—running June 16 through September 10 in Jack London State Historic Park (2400 London Ranch Road, Glen Ellen). Transcendence Theatre Company, named

by USA Today’s 10BEST as the #2 “Outdoor Concert Venue You Shouldn’t Miss” in the United States, received four 2016 Broadway World San Francisco awards including Best Special Theater Event for the fifth consecutive year.

Transcendence’s Broadway Under the Stars is an award-winning series of Broadway-inspired concerts featuring performers from New York and Los Angeles—artists who often come to the Sonoma stage directly from recent Broadway appearances. More than a standard musical revue, each show weaves well-known Broadway and popular songs into a spectacular themed performance in the open-air 150-year-old Winery Ruins at Jack London State Historic Park.

All events begin with picnicking amongst the vineyards of Jack London’s historic Beauty Ranch meadow—including gourmet food truck fare, an assortment of local wineries pouring and pre-show music from local musicians—casting a magical spell of communal festivity and summer celebration. Sunset heralds the start of the show and the stage begins to sparkle as dusk descends and the Broadway stars sing and dance under a starlit nighttime sky.

Celebrate the beginning of summer and experience a journey through Broadway’s most memorable and inspiring moments, with music and dance that will take you to new heights.

Lake Sonoma Winery The Sonoma County winegrowing region boasts some of the most diverse assemblages of terroir and micro-climates in the world. This diversity is best noted and expressed through Sonoma’s sub-appellations, many of which have become truly renowned for the specific varietals that thrive in each region.

Lake Sonoma Winery focuses on the most celebrated of these sub-appellations to offer a brilliant portfolio of fine wines designed to showcase the region’s unique characteristics and the varietal for which it has come to be known. The portfolio includes the best Sonoma Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon.

The tasting lounge is located in the historic Sonoma Plaza at 134 Church street and is open daily from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Founded in 1977, the facility offers fans, followers and club members a warm, welcoming space to enjoy wine in the heart of Sonoma’s downtown shopping district.

Filled with natural light, the spacious room is built for comfort with intimate tables and space for groups. With an open A-frame floor plan, exposed dark wood beams and high-top tables of galvanized steel and natural wood surround a marble kitchen-style island serving as a tasting bar. Casual cushioned sofas and leather chairs add an easy lounge feel to the space. A wall of glass doors opens to the patio and fire pit while windows along the back bar add more natural light.

A tasting flight of five wines is $15. Wines by the glass are also available from $8.50 to $14. Club members receive additional perks on both wine and tastings. A private tasting room accommodates groups up to eight with advance reservations. For reservations or more information, call (707) 721-1979. >>BY BONNIE ZIMMERMANN

Wine Country This Week >> MONTEREY

SCRATCH: A New Tasting Room in Carmel Scratch is a project of winemaker Sabrine Rodems, producing small-lot Riesling, Grenache, Pinot Noir and Cabernet from Monterey, Arroyo Seco, Santa Lucia Highlands and Santa Cruz Mountains AVA’s. Sabrine received her Bachelor degree from UCLA in Theatre, Film and Television and worked in the film and theatre industry for many years before deciding to go back to school to earn her Master of Science in Viticulture and Enology from UC Davis. For the past ten years Sabrine has been making highly acclaimed wines from some of the best vineyards in California.

Working in the Central Coast and Monterey area has given her access to some of the best cool climate grapes in the world.

The tasting room is located on Dolores Street between Ocean and 7th in the Winfield Gallery Atrium, Carmel-by-the-Sea. Open weekdays 12–6 p.m. and Friday and Saturday 12 –7p.m. Call (831)320-0726 for more information. You can keep up at Instagram, Twitter and Face Book @scratchwines as well.

2014 Rosé­—only 5 cases left before the 2016 release. Just because she is wearing pink don’t be fooled by this sister! This is a bold Rosé that is dry and fruity with hints of rhubarb, strawberries and melon.

Red delicious in mouth and Granny Smith on the Sabrine Rodems finish. Perfect for the patio!

2013 Riesling These Riesling grapes are sourced from the rocky river bed of the Arroyo Seco. The rocky soil allows for great drainage and minerality that is pervasive in this wine. This Riesling is screamin’ dry! Big acid, bright minerality, grapefruit and lemon with a hint of flowers.

2013 Grenache A spicy Grenache from the gravelly soils of the Arroyo Seco, with fresh fruit compote of berries plum, and black cherries with nutmeg and black pepper. You really taste the warm rocks of the Arroyo in the rich fruit with the structural support of the whole cluster.

2013 Pinot Noir This wine is from the Santa Lucia Highlands KW Ranch Vineyard. A rich and lush Pinot Noir with black cherries, plum, nutmeg, clove, anise and rhubarb with tannin structure that fills your mouth from the 50% whole cluster fermentation. A mixture of 667 and Pommard 4 clones work together to accentuate their distinct characters, the fruitiness of the 667 and the earthiness of the Pommard 4.

2013 Cabernet Santa Cruz Mountains is known for its quintessential Cabernet Sauvignon. This fruit is sourced from the steep hillside of JANACA Vineyard on Mt. Madonna in the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA. What Cabernet is all about. Rich flavors of plum and blackberries with juniper, nutmeg, clove, balanced by acidity and tannins arising from proximity to the ocean. Classic Cabernet in every sense.

About the Winemaker Sabrine Rodems is the youngest of six and back in the day, living in Novato (which was practically a cow town in the 70’s) did everything that was free—winery tours, cheese factory tours, chicken farm tours, and a lot of camping. She went on more tours by the time she was seven than most people would in their entire lives. These memories stayed with her and left a great impression.

With a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre, Film and Television from UCLA, she spent a decade working as an electrician, carpenter and prop builder for stage and screen (movies, opera, plays, etc.), IATSE Local #16 in San Francisco.

In the late 1990s, She went back to university and was considering medicine, but her sister (a family doctor) jokingly said, “We don’t need another doctor in the family, we need an Enologist in the family.” The family grew up with a passion for food and wine, and she wanted to do something that combined art and science, so she decided to transfer her pre-med course work and pursue a Master of Science in Viticulture and Enology from UC Davis receiving her degree in 2004.

She joined San Saba Vineyard in June of 2004 and was promoted to winemaker in March of 2006. In 2008 when the Thomas Family purchased San Saba Vineyards, Wrath was created. In 2011, with the blessing and support of Wrath’s owners Michael and Barbara Thomas, Sabrine launched her own personal wine project, Scratch Wines.

Scratch pushed her limits. A personal challenge to pick varietals and make them in styles that show them off at their best: high acid Riesling, spicy Grenache, bold Pinot Noir and complex Cabernet.

Pushing the boundaries of art as well, Scratch features works from provocative artists in the tasting room.

The rocky soil of the dry river bed of Arroyo Seco lends itself to Riesling and Grenache. When tasting her Riesling and other Rieslings from there, these river rocks can come to mind. The Grenache from the Arroyo is spicy and with the whole cluster it pushes the spice and the dark fruit forward. The Pinot Noir from KW Ranch has a lot of rich fruit flavors and with the added structure and flavor of the whole cluster it becomes a more complex glass of wine. In 2013 she made her first Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet, a classic showing off its coastal climate.

The Rosé is dry and refreshing! Scratch is a passion brand says she, you will find the raw data on the back label to get an idea of what it means and what the style of the wine is going to be like—without flowery language. Sabrine Rodems’ wines reflect her life expressed through the making of wine...she does it her way...

“This is not to say that there is no risk. In fact, it is laden with risk. Maybe that is what I like about it!”
