FRESH TAKE

am a bona fide design enthusiast. I love design...as in scream-it-from-the-top-of-the-mountain love design. And although I may not want to possess or inhabit some of the aesthetics we cover in Cambria Style, I can flat out say that I appreciate each and every home, chair, kitchen, and other gorgeous design element we share with our readers. And, from the letters and emails I receive, it’s safe to say that you love design as much as I do. So, never one to shy away from great design conversation, Cambria Style is proud to introduce two new design experiences, the first of which is a workbook included in this issue: “Kitchen & Bath Design Inspiration: The Ultimate Design Planner.” Part ideas crucible, part expert guide, part project checklist, the planner is a must-have tool to shepherd you through what can be the overwhelming task of remodeling your kitchen or bathroom. We have consulted with some of the top builders and designers in the country to compile a resource that goes hand in hand with any project: How to choose your designer or architect, lay out your space, and select the finishing details such as hardware and paint color—we’ve got you covered. Not to mention there are oodles of Cambria design swatches inside so you can find your ideal countertop. The second of our new experiences is our podcast: Beyond the Surface is a series of conversations that dig deep into a variety of design topics, the first of which is “An American Original: Mid-Century Modern,” which shares its theme with this issue. Traversing history, lifestyle, and pop culture, we take you from early modernism all the way to the present day, and dish with guest experts on everything from how to work with your mid-century space to making the perfect martini. Think of it as a way to read our magazine while driving home from the office. On the pages of this issue you’ll tour retro homes in the desert and contemporary takes on the mid-century style across the country. Plus, there’s a look inside an artisanal paint company, comfort food recipes galore, and a deep dive into California wine. Once you have finished reading, do check out the podcast on iTunes or our website and go Beyond the Surface of mid-century modern with us. We’d love to have you.

Seeking to channel the halcyon days of his childhood in California, Kennedy imbues each interior with what he dubs “jet-set nostalgia.” His work extends beyond interior design to include his own lines of case goods, upholstery, candles, bedding, and pottery. The author of two books, California Modern (2015) and Making Midcentury Modern (2017), Kennedy is not afraid to showcase his long-held attitude toward design and life: a “golden state of mind.” See how that mantra comes to life on page 28.

Because he grew up in the family business of real estate development and construction, Werner approaches projects like the Washington home on page 34 with a hands-on sensibility. Today, his Seattle firm, founded in 1996, subscribes to a holistic process that incorporates interior design, architecture, and landscaping. “Our profession is unlike any other,” he says with enthusiasm. “It’s both an art and a science.” With projects across the globe and more than two dozen awards under his belt, Werner continues to take his industrious crew onward and upward.

Influenced by her international travels, Los Angeles–based Boudreau has spent the past 20 years developing a penchant for elegant simplicity and environments that take you on an “emotional journey.” Her most recent projects include her vacation home—the airy retreat in Palm Springs featured on page 44—a chic London remodel, and an art-filled residence overlooking the Hollywood Hills. In true 21st-century form, Boudreau offers an all-digital “express design” service to budget-conscious clients in addition to traditional interior design and styling.

editor’s take

KITCHEN

What I love about the renovation of this 1948 home is that it’s a gentle remodel. Kristine Anderson of Peterssen/Keller Architecture embraced what was already there and, where updates were needed, ensured they were in sympathy with the original architecture. To add in contemporary nuance, the goal was to usher in light and flow while elevating the design, thus the rollaway doors and sleek and durable Cambria Fieldstone countertops. ARCHITECTURE

Strategically placed clerestory windows, which were very popular in the 1950s and ’60s, bring light deep into the interior.

LIVING ROOM

Cantilevers are a big part of modernist design, and when you look closely, there are oh so many in this home, from the canopy outside the homeowners’ garage (behind the wife’s vintage sportscar!) to the kitchen’s Marcel Breuer bar stools.

Furnishings selected by interior designer Jay Nuhring have clean mid-century lines but are mostly contemporary— save the pink chair, which is a 1938 design by Gerrit Rietveld. Another contemporary insert is the lift-and-slide glass doors that open to the leafy patio.

PA N T R Y

The olive-green glazed ceramic tiles in the pantry scream mid-century! If you’re not a fan of green, try mustard, burnt orange, or teal blue for a similar retro effect.

B AT H R O O M

If you’ve gone wild with a statement tile, like this sparkly blue mosaic, pair it with a simple countertop, such as Cambria’s subtle White Cliff, shown here in a high-sheen polish.

Classic mid-century modern homes were rife with wood paneling, often walnut. Here, however, it’s a warm African teak that plays off the color of the bedding.

WERNER STRAUBE PHOTOGRAPHY

When it comes to making a statement, this Chicago-based interior designer is up to the task.

onna Mondi has been designing homes for as long as she can remember. “I was all about my dollhouse as a little girl,” she recalls, sharing how her father, an engineer, would help her fabricate wallpaper, lighting, and furniture for the miniature house. Fastforward to today, and it’s no surprise that her firm, Donna Mondi Interior Design, is focused on the home. “I like the personal connection with my clients,” she explains. “When you pick something, you’re picking it for them.” For this serene, mid-century–inflected apartment nestled in Chicago’s swanky No.9 Walton building, the owners wanted to make a statement in the kitchen. Mondi’s solution? “We chose Cambria Brittanicca for the countertops and backsplash,” she explains. “It has a beautiful, dramatic vein that really draws your eye to it. And it’s indestructible,” she adds. “It performs without sacrificing beauty.” —Colleen Curry

GIVING BACK Charitable cotton-knit beanie business Love Your Melon blends retail and studio space with aplomb. By J E S S E D O R R I S Photography by S T E V E H E N K E

ometimes you really can do well by doing good. All it takes is a couple of fresh ideas. The first came to Zachary Quinn while he was studying business at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota. A way to help children undergoing treatment for cancer, he thought, might be as simple as providing the comfort and protection of a cute beanie. What began as a way to use design to manifest empathy has, six years later, become a movement: To date, Love Your Melon has given away over 160,000 hats to children fighting cancerâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and over $6.1 million dollars to the cause. Meanwhile, the company has expanded its made-in-America products to apparel and housewares, with 50 percent of net profits going to a fund supporting nonprofits that provide therapy and programming for kids with cancer and their families. 1 8

STOREFRONT

Custom-finished bleached-maple floors warm up the bright, neutral space.

Last spring, Quinn had a second great idea: to open a physical space to represent Love Your Melon’s online brand. He wanted to build a destination for social-media influencers, a hub for socially conscious neighbors, and a brick-and-mortar flagship for his growing line of wares. Make that Cambria-and-brick-and-mortar. Quinn had first fallen for the stone when he used it in his own home. So when he found a dark, rustic shop in a historic building in Minneapolis’ North Loop neighborhood, he enlisted it again as a fresh, contemporary element. “We set out to create a place where the historic building and new fixtures and finishes could interact. The line between new and old turned out beautifully,” he says. Expanses of Cambria Skara Brae form a striking bench that runs the length of a shelving wall showcasing rows of the famed beanies—all in white. “It captures your attention right when you walk in,” Quinn says. The wall looks particularly eye-catching on Instagram (a ’gramworthy selfie spot being a must-have for the millennial crowd). Cambria stone also frames a kitchenette marked off by mosaic tile and reoccurs on the third floor, in the office. “We were persistent about sticking to gray tones, white, and brushed silver,” Quinn explains. 2 0

“The products we bring into that then speak for themselves.” An example of one of Quinn’s most intriguing product ideas on display? A prototype of the beanie vending machine Love Your Melon intends to place in hospitals across the country. Other brands can get in on the action, too: the ground-floor retail space has a mini photography studio open to all to use, and a bar for parties and networking after dark. The project’s clean white palette can be seen as a blank slate for new ideas. Clearly Love Your Melon is on the right track, as its revenue has tripled in the past three years. It’s all proof that profits and principles, like a fresh new beanie, can be a perfect fit. Cambria design shown: Skara Brae (kitchenette countertops)

MOD MEN Christopher Kennedy makes mid-century modern in the Mojave Desert. By G E O R G I N A M c W H I R T E R Photography by G R AY C R A W F O R D

At first glance, one could be forgiven for thinking a spaceship had landed in Joshua Tree, California. On closer inspection, however, the silvery glint of metal in the sun reveals itself as a small steel prefab perched lightly atop the boulder-strewn desert. It’s the holiday home of a Canadian couple who use it as a writer’s retreat (him) and yoga refuge (her). The husband was en route to Coachella when he spotted a prototype of the building in a magazine—and lost no time commissioning architects o2 Architecture and interior designer Christopher Kennedy for one of his own. The galvanized-steel shell is decidedly contemporary: a two-bed, one-bath cube with an open-plan kitchen-living-dining area. For interiors, though, the couple wanted something…different. “We just got into this show called Mad Men,” the husband told Kennedy. “Could you do a look like that?” He certainly could. In fact, Kennedy was already something of a design doyen of California modernism. He started the project

by freeze-framing a scene in Don Draper’s office and building a custom sofa to match. (Top marks for attention to detail.) And it went from there. Pedigreed vintage pieces—like a Paul McCobb credenza—dovetail with modern classics still in production, like the Eero Saarinen dining chairs. “It’s swanky mid-century,” Kennedy says. “I love it because of the incongruity. You drive down this long, winding dirt path and don’t expect the level of sophistication that awaits.”

WE JUST GOT INTO THIS SHOW CALLED MAD MEN. COULD YOU DO A LOOK LIKE THAT?

Although Cambria was specified throughout, it is the living area that showcases Kennedy’s favorite example—and the most unusual use— of the stone. At one end of the room is what he dubs the focal point: a walnut wall inset with glazed ceramic tiles reminiscent of California pottery popular in the 1960s, anchored by a long, floating bench clad in Cambria stone. “We wanted durable, modern, elegant, and timeless stone surfacing. Cambria absolutely fit the bill,” he says.

A vintage George Nelson Cigar pendant hangs in the corner of the room, drawing further attention to the retro vignette. (Although the piece can still be purchased new today, “we wanted the patina of an original,” Kennedy says.) Floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall drapery also speaks to the era, but that wasn’t won without debate. “The wonderful architect, Lance O’Donnell, and I didn’t agree on that at first,” the designer notes. “He said, ‘This is a contemporary

home. We would normally do a roller shade.’” Kennedy argued that if you look at the cleanlined mid-century houses in the Los Angeles hills in those great black-and-white photos by Julius Shulman and the like, they all have draperies. O’Donnell was duly convinced, and the couple loves the cozy yet airy note they lend. For all his attention to historical accuracy, Kennedy is quick to point out that mid-century for him is not just about “nostalgia for a certain

architect, lamp, or chair. As society becomes increasingly ugly and fractured, I think we have a collective yearning for a time when kids could ride their bikes until sundown and a family sat down to dine together, not just texted. There’s a certain graceful beauty that’s been lost in our society and our manners. I want to infuse my interiors with the best of that era in terms of its ethos as well as its style and sophistication.” Amen to that.

MID-CENTURY CONTEMPORARY A Washington designer puts a Zen twist on retro style. By M A R Y J O B O W L I N G Photography by A N D R E W G I A M M A R C O

When Seattle-based designer Garret Werner of Garret Cord Werner, Architects & Interior Designers tackled the remodel of a midcentury rambler in Clyde Hill, Washington, the goal was to celebrate what was working about the streamlined style while making it a fit for his contemporary clients. “They had long loved mid-century architecture and wanted to keep the character of the original structure,” he says. “That said, there were a few things we could do to make this house even better.” The owners, Valerie Wasserman and Scott Moore, appreciated their home’s clean lines so much they lived in it for three years with their trio of children before embarking on the project. That stint gave them knowledge about what was working—and what wasn’t. Intuiting their aims, Werner reinvented the layout to open up key rooms to the newly transformed backyard and spectacular vistas of Lake Washington. Pre-remodel, the kitchen was gloomy, dark, and closed off from the living area and the master bedroom was situated at the front of the house, away from the view. Werner removed walls to open up the kitchen to the living space and its scenic outlook; moved the master bedroom to the back of the house, where the landscaped pool C A M B R I A U S A .

kitchen is an enlarged galley style but with a low-maintenance mind-set. “Having elegant, easy-care elements was an absolute must for these clients,” Werner says. An example is the Cambria stone used for the kitchen and bathroom countertops, a material selected because of its natural appearance and durability.

A fireplace clad in floorto-ceiling Cambria stone was added to the newly configured master; next toÂ it is a vintage desk from the 1960s.

Throughout the house, classic finishes and contemporary surfaces mingle. Werner preserved the original cedar ceilings, simply sandblasting them to achieve a fresher, lighter color. But new elements such as a steel-clad fireplace and acid-stained steel framing add distinctive, of-today notes. As does the Zen element that pervades the remodel. Bringing a sense of serenity to the home are the Japanese-inspired gardens at the front of the home, which incorporate maple trees and raked gravel, an ofuro-esque soaking tub in the master bathroom, and a flowing water feature that spills into the lap pool out back.

Wasserman and Moore brought some iconic pieces to the interior—such as an Eames lounge chair, Carl Hansen CH07 chair, and Eero Saarinen table—but in spite of their deep respect for the style, the couple did not want to live in the equivalent of a mid-century museum. Noting the curvaceous custom sofa in the living room and the art deco styling of the headboard in the master bedroom, Werner says, “They already had a nice collection of Cambria design shown: Rosedale (countertop, backsplash)

mid-century items, but we mixed in a range of styles and eras to keep it interesting. We were after timeless.” Werner describes the home as an attractive cipher that suits his clients perfectly. “All of the character remains, so much so that it can be difficult to discern where the remodel begins,” he says. “I think that you might look at the house and wonder, ‘Is it old or is it new?’ It’s a delightful mystery.”

A full-length lap pool replaced one that was in disrepair. A waterfall placed strategically at the far end provides a focal point.

Jamie Davis and his tightly knit team mix new colors by hand.

t Portola Paints & Glazes in West Hollywood, California, flipping through the fan decks is an insight into the imagination of its founders. Sure, Mont Blanc is alabaster. Costa Azul has the look and feel of distressed blue jeans. And Wet Concrete actually resembles the stuff. But what of the deeply contemplative turquoise hue of Lost Highway or the period-correct, depressingly accurate, and evocative Mar Vista seafoam? Immediately, you get the sense that there is creativity, whimsy, and humanism in these blends. “The colors aren’t made from a computer algorithm,” says co-owner Jamie Davis. “They’re made from experience.” The small-batch, customized approach touches everything about Portola, which Davis has run with his brother, Casey, both deeply rooted Angelenos, since 2001. (“My brother and I were both home births in Laurel Canyon, so it’s in our blood,” Davis says.) What started as an endeavor by their contractor father researching lime paints in 1998 turned into a hyperlocal family business specializing in limewash and Roman clay. The matriarch of the family keeps the books. The hearth, so to speak, of Portola’s retail space is the wooden table that bisects the customer-facing area. Davis spends most of his time here among the plasterboards and butcher paper, brush in hand, using the natural, ALL IN THE southerly light to test his work. Lining the east and FA M I LY west walls are floor-to-ceiling built-in shelves and cabinets crafted by the Davis brothers’ father.

THE SCIENCE OF PAINT Material scientist Dr. Andrew Dent of Material ConneXion dishes on the recent innovations behind the seemingly simple finish.

When the company started out, the brothers’ color offerings were smaller and they did a lot of custom matching. These days, Davis is more likely to turn to Pinterest and Instagram to get a fuller idea of his clients’ tastes. His sense of color is inspired by the tapestry of the city, with its cottages sitting among Spanish-style haciendas—often all on the same block. The colors that Portola makes are mixed in the area just behind the register, while the base coats are produced at a facility in South Los Angeles, which Davis posits is the last remaining familyowned paint factory around. Where possible, he likes to collaborate with the greater, like-minded L.A. community. “When we started this company, the internet wasn’t even a thing, and now there are companies that don’t even have brick and mortar,” Davis says. “That’s going to be a challenge moving forward, figuring out how to keep the same service that’s gotten us where we are, while also freeing myself and my brother to figure out how to expand the business outside of a single store.” In the loftlike space directly above the showroom is an office where Davis and his team hand-paint each swatch and assemble individual fan decks. “They’re made by hand; they have to be,” Davis says. “It’s about staying true to what makes it special.” Davis innovates by monitoring trends outside his industry, looking to fashion brands like A.P.C. and Rag & Bone. The colors that helped launch the business, Davis notes, are coming full circle. Mustard yellow and terra-cotta are slowly replacing lifeless off-whites—and there’s even demand again for chartreuse. Don’t bet against a brilliant response from Portola to accompany the resurgence.

What other interior product could claim the same level of impact as a can of paint? It is said to be the first thing the eyes respond to when entering a room and is typically the largest canvas for color in any space yet achieves this with the material thickness of a couple of sheets of paper. The development of low- and zero-VOC options allows us to breathe easy, and the evolution of paint chemistry means that we can cover more with less. Colors are evolving, too, with the pigment industry offering new effects and colors. The first good new blue for 200 years was found less than a decade ago, and the hunt for a nontoxic stable red is heating up. (Ferrari pays $300 million a year for its signature pigment.) Special effects such as ultra-mattes, a

wider range of metallic sheens, and iridescent effects are also trending from cars into our homes via electronics. With such a large canvas, there has been an inevitable desire to innovate, leading companies to add value in surprising ways. Want to stick magnets to your wall? Need it to be a dry-erase surface? Trying to reduce noise levels in a room? All can be solved by a coat of paint—there’s even a version that creates energy from sunlight, and for those of us tired of following our messy kids around the house with a wet sponge, there are self-cleaning, odoreating, and antibacterial options. It seems that paint manufacturers have solved every challenge for reimagining our interior spaces, leaving only one problem left: which color?

always make a playlist before I start a project,” says interior designer Michelle Boudreau. “Choosing songs helps get me in the spirit of the design.” For the renovation of her and her husband’s weekend home in Palm Springs, California, that meant Rat Pack jazz and ’70s surf rock. The melodies conjure up the golden-age heyday of the vacation mecca, when the desert city was the playground of Hollywood’s rich and famous and poolside cocktail parties were all the rage.

The project began when Californian Boudreau and her British husband returned to Los Angeles after a decade living in London. “The first thing I wanted was to buy a mid-century home I could reinterpret as my own,” Boudreau says. Palm Springs had long been a special city to her. “My grandmother took me there when I was young,” she explains. “I just adored the glamour of it all; the cocktails, the parties, the flowing caftans and fabulous jewelry. It’s magical!” It was also where she fell in love with midcentury architecture, touring the city’s myriad superb examples. (She cites Arthur Elrod’s legendary party pad in the James Bond flick Diamonds Are Forever as top of the list.)

When Boudreau found one of her favorite design typologies on the market, a classic mid-century William Krisel butterfly-roof home, she jumped at the chance to purchase it. As her husband is an architect by trade, the pair embarked on modernizing their vacation home together. Their aim was to respect Krisel’s vision but add personal details and contemporary flair. Aside from a lick of paint and a few other minor cosmetic changes, the house hadn’t been touched in 50 years. The couple determined to keep the original floor plan but added on a master suite wrapped in an L shape around the pool. “It’s our little escape at the end of the house,” Boudreau says with a laugh. Moving their master suite freed up space in the main house for spacious guest quarters—a must for these avid entertainers. In each guest bedroom Boudreau pays homage to an aspect of Palm Springs culture. There’s the Pool room, defined

by an aqua the color of the swimming pools in Slim Aarons’ photographs of Palm Springs soirées. Then there’s the Palm room, featuring palm leaves on the wallpaper, plus on the real-life trees—seen through clerestory windows—the couple had trucked in to grace the yard. Structurally, the pair added glass sliders and windows to take advantage of views out to their newly designed pool and yard, which, with the help of a few desert-planting tomes, was transformed from barren rock to a lush oasis. As Krisel’s midcentury bungalows tend to be small, around 1,200 square feet, the addition of all that glazing makes the home feel more spacious than it actually is. For both interior and exterior, Boudreau selected a cool-neutral palette consisting of a soft midgray paint often used in 1960s homes and white, which shows up vibrantly under the bright Southern California sun, making it the perfect canvas on Cambria design shown: Ironsbridge (fireplace)

which to catch architectural shadows. In the courtyard, for instance, the couple removed the existing roof and added shade battens (“hubby’s idea!” Boudreau credits), which cast syncopated shadows on the whiteconcrete ground. For furnishings, however, they didn’t shy away from the occasional saturated hue; note the cerulean blue of a vintage Knoll Womb chair. (“Mid-century homeowners weren’t afraid of color,” Boudreau says by way of explanation.) “Being an interior designer is like having a blank 3-D canvas,” she continues with passion. “You can shape the look and feel of an environment.” Her modus operandi is to mix luxury materials, like the stone, tile, brass, and walnut popular in the ’50s, ’60s, and ’70s, with contemporary abstract art and the clean, light elements of today’s voguish designs. For stone, one of her central loves, she chose four Cambria designs, including Clareanne from the Marble Collection, a gray surface organically streaked with threads of white, and pale Whitehall, with minute flecks of gray. In addition to using Cambria stone on countertops, she fabricated a fireplace that makes an architectural feature of the natural material, inspired Cambria design shown: Whitehall (countertop)

by the way designers in the 1970s began to use stone more creatively. “What I love about Cambria is its beautiful patterning and utmost durability,” she says. “It’s impermeable. There’s no worry about having to seal it or maintain it. It just works as is.” Brass is another material that crops up throughout, as “a pinch of Palm Springs sunshine.” See the living room’s Puzzle chandelier by designer-retailer Jonathan Adler—a name synonymous with retro-glam style.

different sizes, which soften the square angles of the kitchen. “Lighting is jewelry for the home,” Boudreau says. “I’m obsessed.” Walnut, a typically mid-century wood, is much adored by the designer. She created paneling of the wood inset with thin brass strips at precise, regular intervals to snake through select rooms. “It was a story in itself to get that made!” she remarks with a laugh. “We were emphatic about every detail so we had to ensure the grain in every panel matched perfectly.”

EXTERIOR

To open up the kitchen to indoor-outdoor living, Boudreau added glass sliders and clerestory windows to the 1962 William Krisel home.

But back to that playlist. Alongside the aforementioned golden oldies, noughties electronica also made the cut. “We didn’t want the house to be stuck in the past,” Boudreau says. Take the sound system and other smart technology hidden in the walls; when the couple are away, everything is on remote control. Nothing old-fashioned about that. “It’s all about mixing old with new,” Boudreau says. “The challenge,” she acknowledges, “is balancing the two appropriately.” Interestingly, the couple’s Palm Springs home is entirely different from their Los Angeles house, which trends minimalist and European with “loads of natural textures and black.” Boudreau’s aim for every project is to infuse each dwelling with its own personality. And this house sure has character. Every weekend the couple can be found luxuriating by the pool in their mid-century home, martinis in hand, tunes blasting…perhaps the same Palm Springs playlist that started it all. Cin cin!

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 425°F. Rinse and dry fish. Stuff with garlic, lemon slices, and herbs. Drizzle with 2 Tbsp. olive oil and salt and pepper; set fish on one side of a baking pan. Wash and peel (if needed) root vegetables. Toss root vegetables, carrots, and beets in a bowl with the remaining olive oil plus salt and pepper. Arrange vegetables and caper berries alongside fish on baking pan. Bake until fish is white and flaky, 25-30 minutes.

SALTED CARAMEL BROWNIES Makes 9 brownies

INGREDIENTS FOR BROWNIES

nonstick coconut oil spray (or canola) unsweetened cocoa powder 1 stick unsalted butter, cut into ½-inch pieces ½ cup dark chocolate, chips or chopped 1 / 3 cup bittersweet chocolate, chips or chopped 2 / 3 cup all-purpose flour 1 Tbsp. espresso powder ½ tsp. baking powder ¼ tsp. kosher salt 2 large eggs 1 cup raw or turbinado sugar (or regular sugar) 1 tsp. vanilla ¾ cup (approximately 8) chopped store-bought salted caramel truffles 1 tsp. sea salt flakes or coarse salt INGREDIENTS FOR CARAMEL SAUCE

½ cup sugar 2 Tbsp. water 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter 2 Tbsp. heavy cream sea salt, to taste DIRECTIONS

Make brownies: Spray an 8-inch square baking pan with nonstick spray. Dust with cocoa powder, tap out excess, and set aside. Preheat oven to 350°F. Melt butter and both chocolates in a saucepan on medium heat, set aside, and let cool. Combine dry ingredients and set aside. Whisk eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. Add vanilla. Fold in cooled chocolate mix and then dry ingredients followed by chopped truffles. Pour batter into prepared pan, smooth top, and sprinkle with sea salt flakes. Bake until toothpick comes out clean, 25–30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool in pan. Make caramel sauce: In a small saucepan, bring sugar and water to a rolling boil over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Swirl pan gently and brush down sides of pan with a wet pastry brush to keep from sticking. Cook over medium-high heat until sugar is deep amber in color, 8 minutes. Remove pan from heat and add butter, cream, and salt (sauce will bubble up); whisk to combine. Cover and keep at room temperature. Reheat before using. Pour over brownies.

SOMMELIER

TASTY TWEAKS Customize these simple classics with even more fabulous flavor: Mac and Cheese Instead of luscious lobster, add crumbled bacon for a crispysalty hit or chopped herbs for freshness. Alternatively, swap out the cheeses for a different flavor profile (hint: Mix in some smoked Gouda for extra depth).

Scribe Pinot Noir Rosé

Whole Fish No need to copy our recipe exactly: Replace the root vegetables with whatever is in season—squash, eggplant, and tomatoes are a great summer combo, for example.

There’s nothing like a crisp glass of rosé to enjoy with pan-roasted fish, especially with scrumptious veggies. Textured cherry, citrus, and mineral notes give this wine a truly vibrant mouthfeel.

Brownies A generous dollop of whipped cream or peanut butter is a great topping alternative. Or spoon some high-quality chocolate sauce over each square for a chocoholic’s delight.

Indeed, California not only produces close to 90 percent of all wine made in America, it’s the fourth-largest wine producer in the world, according to the Wine Institute advocacy group. But last year two of its most famous growing regions suffered a devastating blow when wildfires raged across Northern California, destroying thousands of homes and several historic wineries. “The tragedy is impossible to overstate,” says Leslee Miller, a certified sommelier, “and yet in some ways the news isn’t quite as bad as it looked on TV.” An early 2017 harvest meant that most of the grapes were safely off the vines before the wildfires began. And only a very small portion of the vines actually burned. The region is rebuilding quickly, and growers are taking the opportunity to reinvigorate the soil and their agricultural practices. What does this mean for wine lovers? “If there’s a silver lining to such a terrible event, it’s that California wine may get even better,” says Miller. “So keep enjoying it!” Cambria design shown: Ella

PRO TIP: TRY SERVING LIGHT

RAISE YOUR GLASS Wine is sacred to California’s economy today, but in the late 1700s it was literally sacred: Spanish missionaries planted the state’s first grapevines to produce the wine used in their religious sacraments. The commercial wine industry didn’t take hold for almost another hundred years, when gold rush prospectors drove demand. Napa and Sonoma Counties quickly became the seats of California winemaking and are still the bestknown regions to many, though today 70 percent of California wine is grown in the Central Valley. What makes California so well suited to winemaking? Year-round sunshine, for one thing, which allows for a long grape-growing season. Also essential: thousands of miles of coastline, which usher in the refreshing breezes and fog that

cool-climate varieties like pinot noir and chardonnay love. Diverse soils, including loam and clay, plus varied terrain—from hillsides to protected valleys—provide the ideal growing environments for a range of grapes. “The amazing thing about California is that it has so many subclimates,” says sommelier Leslee Miller. “So you can have a huge variety of styles even within one grape. Cabernet from Napa will be totally different than cabernet from Sonoma—and even within those two counties you’ll have variation.” California wine also has essential differences from European wines, says Miller. “Warmer growing temperatures mean our wines are fruitier and less acidic than their European counterparts, and many are higher in alcohol by volume.”

WHAT DOES IT GO WITH? Miller suggests thinking outside the box with food pairings. “You don’t have to do white wine with fish and red with beef,” she says. “Experiment. Try a dry sparkling wine with something creamy like mac and cheese or rich like fried chicken. Or a cool rosé with spicy, tangy tacos.”

REGIONAL VARIETALS 1

Including Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino, and Lake County, the area is best known for cabernet sauvignon (Napa) and pinot noir (Sonoma).

SONOMA | SCRIBE WINERY Scribe Winery is one of the newest, coolest wineries on the block, with a huge cult following. Adam and

Andrew Mariani, the brothers who own the winery, are changing the way wine drinkers enjoy and share wine. CENTRAL COAST | BONNY DOON VINEYARD Randall Grahm is one of the most progressive winemakers in American history. He is currently trying to invent 10,000 new grape varietals! There’s a reason the New Yorker recently called him the “Don Quixote of the vineyards.”

C E N T R A L VA L L E Y

Although not as known for “fine” wines, this region produces many of California’s wine grapes used for bulk wine production.

PL AN A WINE TOUR NAPA | MATTHIASSON WINES Award-winning Matthiasson Wine is at the forefront of the “New California” era with strong attention to farming, sustainability, and high-quality standards. Theirs are truly some of the best wines in California today.

CENTRAL COAST

Stretching from San Francisco to Santa Barbara, the Central Coast is a rich winemaking region. Paso Robles is famous for its reds—Syrah, zinfandel, cabernet sauvignon, and merlot—and Santa Barbara is better known for pinot noir.

“The best thing we can do to help the California wine regions recover from the 2018 wildfires is to visit,” says Miller. “The wineries—and inns and restaurants—are absolutely open for business. It’s beautiful, and there’s plenty of incredible food to eat and wine to taste.” Here are three of Miller’s favorite wineries to visit:

NORTH COAST

SOUTH COAST

Encompassing everything south of Los Angeles to Mexico, the region has several hot spots: Malibu, Temecula Valley, and San Diego County. Varied conditions produce great cabernets, Syrahs, and merlots, plus aromatic whites.
