It was founded in 1999 by famed vintner, Brice Cutrer Jones, after he sold Sonoma-Cutrer and bought Hallberg Ranch. A Pinot Noir master, Jones has crafted a version like no other with the Hallberg Blanc. It represents the best of both worlds because he’s made a white wine from red grapes. How? The juice is gently extracted from the red Pinot Noir grapes with little skin contact, which is the thing that imparts the purple hue to red wines.

Decant and drink now with hearty dishes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_20794\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-20794\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/40/2020/06/1511wine-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2020/06/1511wine-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2020/06/1511wine-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2020/06/1511wine-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2020/06/1511wine-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2020/06/1511wine-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine and spirits guests drank on the set of season 15 episode 11. \u003ccite>(Maya Wise/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Thirsty for more beverage advice?

It refers to sparkling wine produced in regions of France that aren’t in Champagne (yes, Champagne is a wine AND a place). These include Crémant de Loire, Alsace and Bourgogne. Crémant de Limoux, however, is the most important to know because it’s where France’s original sparkling wine – dating back to 1531 – was made. This pale pink sparkler is mostly Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc with Pinot Noir made in their original Méthode Traditionnelle (bubbles created in the bottle). Its succulent berry fruit notes are balanced with a soft effervesce that says, “party in a glass.” Pop this affordable find with sushi, satay skewers, or a charcuterie platter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.globalvineyard.com/calcu/\">\u003cstrong>2019 Calcu Reserva Especial Rosé\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Colchagua Valley, Chile, $13\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nOne of the best-value pink wines on the market every year comes from Calcu. It’s a hidden gem from Chile’s Colchagua Valley. The name refers to the local language’s word for “a healing doctor” and the wines reflect this unique place. Calcu’s rosé is made with mostly Malbec and a dash of Petite Verdot crafted into a dry, delicate garnet wine. You will want to stock up on this beauty as it’s the ultimate in summer sipping. Fresh enough for an afternoon glass on the patio but flavorful enough to pair with flank steak and roast chicken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.blackstallionwinery.com/all-wines?page=2\">\u003cstrong>2016 Black Stallion ‘Gaspare Vineyard’ Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Oak Knoll District, Napa Valley, California, $75\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nWhen Gaspare and Caterina Indelicato arrived to America from Sicily in 1924, they started growing grapes in central California. Their family eventually built a wine empire known as Delicato Family Wines. Their Gaspare Vineyard anchors the property and this 100 percent Cabernet Sauvignon from the vineyard is made in tribute to the family’s patriarch. Rich and bold with intense dark fruit flavors, it sports enough acidity and structure to age for a decade, but it’s also drinkable now. The tannins will pair well with a grilled steak or blue cheese.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.blackstallionwinery.com/product?productid=EB6DBC71-D4B6-B1DC-EA9B-BEEA219EE7B0\">\u003cstrong>2018 Black Stallion Heritage Chardonnay\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Napa Valley, California, $22\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nAs a fan of one of California’s iconic wine brands, Delicato, I’ve been taken with their latest endeavor, Black Stallion.

Each week, I’ll share my tasting notes about the wine, beer and spirits the guests and I drank on set during the taping of the show.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.bellenda.it/en/wines/\">\u003cstrong>Prima Cuvée Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Italy, $18\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nWine drinkers know (and love) the name Prosecco. They’re generally not as familiar, however, with the historic spot in Northern Italy where many of the best versions are produced: Valdobbiadene. The area’s steep hillside vineyards are a picturesque patchwork of green against a pristine blue sky. Planted to the variety, Glera, these white grapes give Prosecco its aromatic succulence. Bellenda Winery’s ‘Prima’ is flavorful fizz. Affordable yet impressive, it’s a stylish Prosecco ideal for special occasions or everyday sipping.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.clarendelle.com/en/la-famille-clarendelle/clarendelle-blanc/\">2018 Clarendelle Bordeaux Blanc\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Bordeaux, France, $20\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nIt’s a treat to indulge in wines from one of Bordeaux’s famed names at a price that pleases. As owners of the classic (and expensive) first-growth, Château Haut-Brion, the Dillon family’s Clarence Dillon négociant wines are inspired by the great house. The Clarendelle line offers top-notch value with a focus on quality. This dry, elegant white wine is a blend of Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc. Light and lemon-scented with a hint of honeyed richness, I call it a “twice-the-price” wine as its worth double the price tag.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.villamatilde.it/en/rocca-dei-leoni.php\">2018 Villa Matilde ‘Rocca Dei Leoni’ Falanghina, Campania IGP\u003c/a> \u003c/strong>\u003cem>\u003cbr>\nItaly, $20\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nItalian whites are some of my global favorites because they blend the ping of food-friendly freshness with unique minerally notes. In other words, they’re wines with more complexity than just fruitiness. This crisp white is made from a grape called Falanghina (pronounced fal-en-gheena). It’s hails from the southern Italian region of Campania surrounding the city of Naples where pizza was born. Try alongside a pesto-laden vegetable pie and take a sip-trip to Italia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.travelingvineyard.com/guide/shop/product/PSR107/\">\u003cstrong>2018 5 String Partner’s Reserve Petite Sirah\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Paso Robles, California, $25\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nAs a fan of reds from California’s Paso Robles region on the state’s Central Coast, this lush wine is a crowd-pleaser. Don’t let the petite in the name fool you, this is a hearty big red. The grape variety produces powerful wines with peppery notes and full-bodied flair. As the Director of Sommology for Traveling Vineyard, I recommend pairing this wine with pulled pork in a sweet/spicy barbeque sauce topped with crunchy coleslaw. The combination will warm your heart with palate-pleasing deliciousness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.ginmare.com/en/\">Gin Mare Mediterranean Gin\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Spain, $40\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nImagine gazing at pure blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea while sipping a gin cocktail and basking in sunshine on the Costa Brava. Well, this unique gin will take you there. It’s a virtual vacation in a glass. What makes it special? Hailing from Spain, the botanicals Gin Mare uses are a cornucopia of aromas from around the Mediterranean basin.

They’re generally not as familiar, however, with the historic spot in Northern Italy where many of the best versions are produced: Valdobbiadene. The area’s steep hillside vineyards are a picturesque patchwork of green against a pristine blue sky. Planted to the variety, Glera, these white grapes give Prosecco its aromatic succulence. Bellenda Winery’s ‘Prima’ is flavorful fizz. Affordable yet impressive, it’s a stylish Prosecco ideal for special occasions or everyday sipping.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.clarendelle.com/en/la-famille-clarendelle/clarendelle-blanc/\">2018 Clarendelle Bordeaux Blanc\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Bordeaux, France, $20\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nIt’s a treat to indulge in wines from one of Bordeaux’s famed names at a price that pleases. As owners of the classic (and expensive) first-growth, Château Haut-Brion, the Dillon family’s Clarence Dillon négociant wines are inspired by the great house. The Clarendelle line offers top-notch value with a focus on quality. This dry, elegant white wine is a blend of Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc. Light and lemon-scented with a hint of honeyed richness, I call it a “twice-the-price” wine as its worth double the price tag.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.villamatilde.it/en/rocca-dei-leoni.php\">2018 Villa Matilde ‘Rocca Dei Leoni’ Falanghina, Campania IGP\u003c/a> \u003c/strong>\u003cem>\u003cbr>\nItaly, $20\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nItalian whites are some of my global favorites because they blend the ping of food-friendly freshness with unique minerally notes. In other words, they’re wines with more complexity than just fruitiness. This crisp white is made from a grape called Falanghina (pronounced fal-en-gheena). It’s hails from the southern Italian region of Campania surrounding the city of Naples where pizza was born. Try alongside a pesto-laden vegetable pie and take a sip-trip to Italia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.travelingvineyard.com/guide/shop/product/PSR107/\">\u003cstrong>2018 5 String Partner’s Reserve Petite Sirah\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Paso Robles, California, $25\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nAs a fan of reds from California’s Paso Robles region on the state’s Central Coast, this lush wine is a crowd-pleaser. Don’t let the petite in the name fool you, this is a hearty big red. The grape variety produces powerful wines with peppery notes and full-bodied flair. As the Director of Sommology for Traveling Vineyard, I recommend pairing this wine with pulled pork in a sweet/spicy barbeque sauce topped with crunchy coleslaw. The combination will warm your heart with palate-pleasing deliciousness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.ginmare.com/en/\">Gin Mare Mediterranean Gin\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Spain, $40\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nImagine gazing at pure blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea while sipping a gin cocktail and basking in sunshine on the Costa Brava. Well, this unique gin will take you there. It’s a virtual vacation in a glass. What makes it special? Hailing from Spain, the botanicals Gin Mare uses are a cornucopia of aromas from around the Mediterranean basin. Thyme from Turkey, rosemary from Greece, Spanish olives and Italian basil impart savory notes that I adore but rarely find in gin. It’s the ideal base for two of my go-to cocktails, a Negroni and a Martini.

Their ancestors helped create the Oregon wine industry, and now second-generation family members Luisa and Anna Maria run the business.
