ALBAN
Protégé · 1 appearance
The original “Rhône Ranger,” John Alban is a pioneer of the Rhône revolution that swept through California’s Central Coast. His estate is located in the Edna Valley, near Arroyo Grande in San Luis Obispo County. Reva is pure Syrah grown in light, chalky soils. This combination results in a wine with inky color, concentrated flavors, and a unique iodine and oyster shell aromatic. Densely-packed blueberry and crème de cassis, with licorice, smoke and candied-violet nuances adding complexity. IDEAL DRINKING WINDOW: 2025-2035 FOOD PAIRING RECOMMENDATIONS: Fantastic with grilled or roasted pork, game, beef, or lamb, as well as most smoked meats. It is also very good with hearty Asian-inspired dishes. DECANT: 2-4 hours in advance STEMWARE: Large glasses such as Zalto Denk’Art Bordeaux or Riedel Sommeliers Hermitage Grand Cru IDEAL SERVICE TEMPERATURE: 65°F
CHÂTEAU CHEVAL BLANC
Protégé · 1 appearance
One of one of the most prestigious wines in Bordeaux, the location of Cheval Blanc on the Pomerol border is part of the reason for the voluptuous character. Comprised of 55% Cabernet Franc, 40% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, the vines average 45 years of age, with some parcels of Cabernet Franc being more than 100 years old! This is a wine for the future which will earn a legendary status as it evolves and matures. The nose explodes with plums, cherries, graphite, tobacco, and violets. This wine is sensuous, fresh and vibrant. It possesses incredible richness, while still remaining light on its feet. IDEAL DRINKING WINDOW: 2030-2040 PAIRING RECOMMENDATIONS: A “Right Bank” Bordeaux-style blend which offers a softer tannin profile and richer mid-palate, this wine matches with a wide variety of meats including squab, lamb, and leaner cuts of beef. Try it with Beef Bourguignon! DECANT: 1-2 hours in advance STEMWARE: Large Bordeaux glasses, ideally Zalto Denk’Art Bordeaux or Riedel Sommeliers Bordeaux Grand Cru IDEAL SERVICE TEMPERATURE: 60°F
COLGIN CELLARS
Protégé · 1 appearance
Crafted by winemaker Allison Tauziet and winemaking consultant Dr. Alain Raynaud, this stunning Bordeaux-style blend is comprised of 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Franc and 8% Petit Verdot. The IX Estate was named after the date (September 9th) that Ann Colgin was married on the Pritchard Hill site, overlooking Lake Hennessey. The 20-acre, east-facing, vineyard was meticulously planted in weathered igneous rock by superstar viticulturalist, David Abreu. This wine explodes with inky cassis and blackberry, graphite and floral notes, yet shows pristine harmony and equilibrium. The iron and the crushed rock flavors from "IX Estate" beam through the fruit giving this wine a perfect sense of place. IDEAL DRINKING WINDOW: 2025-2035 PAIRING RECOMMENDATIONS: The rich flavor and high tannin in Cabernet Sauvignon make it a perfect partner for rich grilled meats and flavorful sauces. Its savory qualities like tobacco and black pepper pair well with foods high in umami. Think Marinated Ribeye Steak with Sauce au Poivre! DECANT: 1-2 hours in advance STEMWARE: Large Bordeaux glasses, ideally Zalto Denk’Art Bordeaux or Riedel Sommeliers Bordeaux Grand Cru IDEAL SERVICE TEMPERATURE: 65°F
DETERT FAMILY
Protégé · 1 appearance
The Detert "East Block” is a 7-acre parcel of old-vine Cabernet Franc within the historic To Kalon Vineyard. Planted in 1949, this is believed to be the first planting of Cabernet Franc in Napa Valley. In 2009, winemaker Tom Garrett began holding back one barrel of East Block so that he could showcase the extraordinary quality of these heritage vines and pay homage to the vineyard’s history. The exceptionally well-drained alluvial soils of the East Block, situated on the famed Oakville Bench, produce a powerful, incredibly complex and sophisticated Cabernet Franc. This wine dazzles with aromas of violets, sage, dark berries, bittersweet-chocolate, and anise. IDEAL DRINKING WINDOW: 2028-2038 PAIRING RECOMMENDATIONS: The rich flavor and high tannin in Cabernet Sauvignon make it a perfect partner for rich grilled meats and flavorful sauces. Its savory qualities like tobacco and black pepper pair well with foods high in umami. Think Marinated Ribeye Steak with Sauce au Poivre! DECANT: 1-2 hours in advance STEMWARE: Large Bordeaux glasses, ideally Zalto Denk’Art Bordeaux or Riedel Sommeliers Bordeaux Grand Cru IDEAL SERVICE TEMPERATURE: 65°F
JEAN-LOUIS CHAVE
Protégé · 1 appearance
Jean-Louis Chave represents the 16th generation of unbroken winemaking lineage in the Northern Rhône Valley dating back to 1481. Jean Louis joined his father Gérard in 1992 after earning a degree in oenology at UC Davis. The key to perfect balance is in their mastery of blending. The Chave family has never released a single vineyard Hermitage. Produced from 100% Syrah, the wine is assembled from outstanding vineyards throughout the region. However, the backbone comes from 50-80 year-old vines located in the steep, granitic “Les Bessards.” The Chave methods are thoroughly traditional—low yields, whole-cluster fermentation, and minimal new oak. The result is the haunting aroma of lavender and Herbs de Provence, followed by powerful flavors of black and blue berries, pepper bacon, and scorched earth. IDEAL DRINKING WINDOW: 2022-2032 FOOD PAIRING RECOMMENDATIONS: Fantastic with grilled or roasted pork, game, beef, or lamb, as well as most smoked meats. It is also very good with hearty Asian-inspired dishes. DECANT: 1-2 hours in advance STEMWARE: Large glasses such as Zalto Denk’Art Bordeaux or Riedel Sommeliers Hermitage Grand Cru IDEAL SERVICE TEMPERATURE: 65°F
KONGSGAARD
Protégé · 1 appearance
After 20 years of winemaking in the Napa Valley, John Kongsgaard launched his own label in 1996. The 2004 Food & Wine Magazine, "Winemaker of the Year," has since become one of the most influential and revered winemakers in country. The Fimasaurus is a personal ‘homage’ to John’s very close friend, Russian pianist Yefim "Fima" Bronfman. This wine is extremely rare, with only 100 cases produced from a blend of co-fermented Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grown on a rocky hilltop vineyard on Atlas Peak. Like Fima himself, the wine is powerful and intense, showing loads of blackcurrants, plums, menthol, dark chocolate, and baking spice. IDEAL DRINKING WINDOW: 2021-2030 PAIRING RECOMMENDATIONS: A “Right Bank” Bordeaux-style blend which offers a softer tannin profile and richer mid-palate, this wine matches with a wide variety of meats including squab, lamb, and leaner cuts of beef. Try it with Beef Bourguignon! DECANT: 1-2 hours in advance STEMWARE: Large Bordeaux glasses, ideally Zalto Denk’Art Bordeaux or Riedel Sommeliers Bordeaux Grand Cru IDEAL SERVICE TEMPERATURE: 65°F
