The von Schubert family estate stretches as far as the eye can see up the steep slopes of the river valley and includes three famed vineyards: the Abtsberg, the Herrenberg, and the Bruderberg. All unique, each vineyard produces wines of distinction. I have a personal love for the Abtsberg, which refers to its history the place grapes were grown for the Abbey of St. Maximin. Vines have been planted in the blue slate soils for nearly 1,000 years. With just 7.5 percent alcohol, this ethereal, aromatic white smells of peaches and orange blossoms. The mouthfeel is delicate with a medium-sweet finish making it a wine to pair alongside fiery, spicy fare or fruit-based desserts. This is Riesling at its best.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.martinraywinery.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2015 Martin Ray, Pinot Noir, Green Valley of Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, California\u003c/a> $40\u003cbr>\nMartin Ray has a legacy as a California winemaking pioneer. Though the brand began in the Santa Cruz Mountains decades ago, it’s now based in one of the state’s oldest continually-working wineries in Sonoma county. This fleshy yet perfumed Pinot Noir showcases the effects of growing grapes in the rich Gold Ridge soil of Russian River Valley’s special Green Valley. Here the fog lingers keeping temperatures cool, which ultimately creates wines of elegance and style. A beautiful red that will surprise and impress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://19crimes.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2015 “19 Crimes” Red Wine, South Eastern Australia\u003c/a> $12\u003cbr>\nThe story behind the 19 Crimes brand is whimsical, which is part of the enjoyment of drinking this juicy, peppery red blend. It’s not a serious wine, but seriously fun to sip. In the late 1700s when Australia was a British colony, criminals convicted of one of nineteen crimes were sent to live in Australia as punishment. They called it “conviction by transportation.” Today, we would call living Down Under winning the lottery! Ah, what a few hundred years does to our perspective.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.broadbent.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Broadbent Madeira Malmsey 10 Years Old, Portugal\u003c/a> $45\u003cbr>\nMadeira is one of the most famed wines and is undergoing a renaissance in the United States thanks in part to the efforts of Bartholomew Broadbent. Though he imports world-class wine from around the globe, his Broadbent Maderia label has special meaning. It was inspired by his wine-icon father, Master of Wine and writer, Michael Broadbent. With his father’s blending acumen at hand, Bartholomew founded his brand of fortified wines from Madeira, the Portuguese island located 400 miles off the coast of Africa.

The von Schubert family estate stretches as far as the eye can see up the steep slopes of the river valley and includes three famed vineyards: the Abtsberg, the Herrenberg, and the Bruderberg. All unique, each vineyard produces wines of distinction. I have a personal love for the Abtsberg, which refers to its history the place grapes were grown for the Abbey of St. Maximin. Vines have been planted in the blue slate soils for nearly 1,000 years. With just 7.5 percent alcohol, this ethereal, aromatic white smells of peaches and orange blossoms. The mouthfeel is delicate with a medium-sweet finish making it a wine to pair alongside fiery, spicy fare or fruit-based desserts. This is Riesling at its best.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Though the brand began in the Santa Cruz Mountains decades ago, it’s now based in one of the state’s oldest continually-working wineries in Sonoma county. This fleshy yet perfumed Pinot Noir showcases the effects of growing grapes in the rich Gold Ridge soil of Russian River Valley’s special Green Valley. Here the fog lingers keeping temperatures cool, which ultimately creates wines of elegance and style. A beautiful red that will surprise and impress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://19crimes.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2015 “19 Crimes” Red Wine, South Eastern Australia\u003c/a> $12\u003cbr>\nThe story behind the 19 Crimes brand is whimsical, which is part of the enjoyment of drinking this juicy, peppery red blend. It’s not a serious wine, but seriously fun to sip. In the late 1700s when Australia was a British colony, criminals convicted of one of nineteen crimes were sent to live in Australia as punishment. They called it “conviction by transportation.” Today, we would call living Down Under winning the lottery! Ah, what a few hundred years does to our perspective.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.broadbent.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Broadbent Madeira Malmsey 10 Years Old, Portugal\u003c/a> $45\u003cbr>\nMadeira is one of the most famed wines and is undergoing a renaissance in the United States thanks in part to the efforts of Bartholomew Broadbent. Though he imports world-class wine from around the globe, his Broadbent Maderia label has special meaning. It was inspired by his wine-icon father, Master of Wine and writer, Michael Broadbent. With his father’s blending acumen at hand, Bartholomew founded his brand of fortified wines from Madeira, the Portuguese island located 400 miles off the coast of Africa. This Malmsey (name of a grape variety) is an aged, sweet style with toasted almond and toffee aromas layered with bright acidity and lusciously sweet yet balanced flavors. Pour as a perfect complement to an après-dinner cheese platter. Then, send the Broadbent boys a kiss of thanks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18192\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18192\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-wine.jpg\" alt=\"Wine that guests drank on the set of season 12 episode 6.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-wine.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-wine-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-wine-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-wine-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-wine-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-wine-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-wine-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-wine-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-wine-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-wine-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine that guests drank on the set of season 12 episode 6. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Here is the recipe for the Pyrenees Cocktail that Leslie served to the guests in this episode:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18191\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18191\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-cocktail1.jpg\" alt=\"Get a taste of the Pyrenees with this delicious and flavorful cocktail recipe featuring Pistachio oil!\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-cocktail1.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-cocktail1-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-cocktail1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-cocktail1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-cocktail1-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-cocktail1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-cocktail1-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-cocktail1-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-cocktail1-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1206-guests-cocktail1-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Get a taste of the Pyrenees with this delicious and flavorful cocktail recipe featuring Pistachio oil! \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Pyrenees Cocktail\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes one cocktail\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>2 ounces Lustau Solera Reserva Brandy\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 ½ tablespoons freshly squeezed Lemon Juice\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tablespoon Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tablespoon egg whites\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 teaspoon Nielsen-Massey Orange Blossom Water\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 teaspoon La Tourangelle Pistachio Oil\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003col>\n\u003cli>Combine all of the ingredients in a shaker with ice.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Shake vigorously and strain into a chilled glass.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Serve immediately.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ol>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

I reach for this brew when I want a malty, lush sip of San Francisco history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18137\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18137\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp-1205-beer-wine.jpg\" alt=\"Wine and beer that guests drank on the set of season 12 episode 5.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp-1205-beer-wine.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp-1205-beer-wine-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp-1205-beer-wine-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp-1205-beer-wine-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp-1205-beer-wine-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp-1205-beer-wine-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp-1205-beer-wine-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp-1205-beer-wine-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp-1205-beer-wine-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp-1205-beer-wine-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine and beer that guests drank on the set of season 12 episode 5. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Back in the 1940s through the early 1970s, Martin Ray was a winemaking pioneer in the Santa Cruz mountains. The brand disappeared and was resurrected in 1990 by Courtney Benham. Now housed in Sonoma’s Russian River Valley in one of the state’s oldest continually-working wineries, Martin Ray is not only a producer to seek out, but a wonderful spot to visit. Making wines from Napa, Sonoma, and Santa Cruz, their portfolio covers whites, reds and pinks. This Napa Cabernet captures Stags Leap District’s signature structure with velvety richness. A splurge-worthy wine that will show beautifully for years to come, it’s also one to uncork tonight alongside a grilled steak. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.baronepizzini.it/en/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Barone Pizzini “Animante” Brut, Franciacorta DOCG, Italy\u003c/a> $37\u003cbr>\nFor bubbly lovers like myself, I covet world-class sparklers that aren’t mainstream. Franciacorta is just that: high quality and unique. Named for a place of origin in northern Italy, Franciacorta, is made using the traditional sparkling wine method with the second fermentation in bottle. This produces elegance and complexity in the final wine. Barone Pizzini has been producing wine since 1870 and this classically crisp, dry bubbly is crafted with Chardonnay, Pinot Nero (Pinot Noir), and Pinot Bianco (Pinot Blanc). With a streak of refreshing minerality and citrusy freshness, it’s sparkling wine that will impress. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.rondiplomatico.com/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Diplomatico “Reserva Exclusiva” Rum, Venezuela\u003c/a> $44\u003cbr>\nRum is on a roll. Undergoing a renaissance, the spirit’s rise in popularity in the past few years can be attributed to increased consumer curiosity and the amount of specialized rums currently available on the market. This version from Venezuela’s, Dipolmatico, is stunning. Made with distilled sugar cane honey aged for up to 12 years, the result is a rum that’s warm and smooth. Sweet fruit notes are laced with aromas of brown spices, ginger, and butterscotch in a complex, opulent spirit. If you enjoy tawny port, cognac, or dessert wines, this swoon-worthy sip will convert you to the Rum-lovers club. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.marinbrewing.com/pt-reyes-porter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marin Brewing Company, Pt. Reyes Porter, Marin County, California $6\u003c/a> (22 oz bottle)\u003cbr>\nThe microbrewery craze has generated a plethora of local breweries, but Marin Brewing is one of the originals. Started in 1989 by Craig Tasley and Brendan Moylan, their brews have been award-winners for decades. This ode to Ireland is a tasty Porter with big, bold flavors. Packed with bittersweet chocolate notes and a decadent roasted richness, it’s a beer that will drape you in deliciousness. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18112\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine.jpg\" alt=\"Wine, beer and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 12 episode 4.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1657\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18112\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-160x138.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-800x690.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-768x663.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-1020x880.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-1180x1018.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-960x829.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-240x207.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-375x324.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-520x449.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine, beer and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 12 episode 4. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n",

This week I discuss: \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/2017/04/13/leslie-sbroccos-check-please-bay-area-season-12-wine-and-spirits-tips/\">the reemergence of craft beer in America.\u003c/a>\u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.martinraywinery.com/napa-valley\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2014 Martin Ray, Cabernet Sauvignon, Stags Leap District, Napa Valley, California\u003c/a> $70\u003cbr>\nI remember starting my journey with wine two decades ago and learning one of California’s historic names, Martin Ray. Back in the 1940s through the early 1970s, Martin Ray was a winemaking pioneer in the Santa Cruz mountains. The brand disappeared and was resurrected in 1990 by Courtney Benham. Now housed in Sonoma’s Russian River Valley in one of the state’s oldest continually-working wineries, Martin Ray is not only a producer to seek out, but a wonderful spot to visit. Making wines from Napa, Sonoma, and Santa Cruz, their portfolio covers whites, reds and pinks. This Napa Cabernet captures Stags Leap District’s signature structure with velvety richness. A splurge-worthy wine that will show beautifully for years to come, it’s also one to uncork tonight alongside a grilled steak. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Franciacorta is just that: high quality and unique. Named for a place of origin in northern Italy, Franciacorta, is made using the traditional sparkling wine method with the second fermentation in bottle. This produces elegance and complexity in the final wine. Barone Pizzini has been producing wine since 1870 and this classically crisp, dry bubbly is crafted with Chardonnay, Pinot Nero (Pinot Noir), and Pinot Bianco (Pinot Blanc). With a streak of refreshing minerality and citrusy freshness, it’s sparkling wine that will impress. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.rondiplomatico.com/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Diplomatico “Reserva Exclusiva” Rum, Venezuela\u003c/a> $44\u003cbr>\nRum is on a roll. Undergoing a renaissance, the spirit’s rise in popularity in the past few years can be attributed to increased consumer curiosity and the amount of specialized rums currently available on the market. This version from Venezuela’s, Dipolmatico, is stunning. Made with distilled sugar cane honey aged for up to 12 years, the result is a rum that’s warm and smooth. Sweet fruit notes are laced with aromas of brown spices, ginger, and butterscotch in a complex, opulent spirit. If you enjoy tawny port, cognac, or dessert wines, this swoon-worthy sip will convert you to the Rum-lovers club. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.marinbrewing.com/pt-reyes-porter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marin Brewing Company, Pt. Reyes Porter, Marin County, California $6\u003c/a> (22 oz bottle)\u003cbr>\nThe microbrewery craze has generated a plethora of local breweries, but Marin Brewing is one of the originals. Started in 1989 by Craig Tasley and Brendan Moylan, their brews have been award-winners for decades. This ode to Ireland is a tasty Porter with big, bold flavors. Packed with bittersweet chocolate notes and a decadent roasted richness, it’s a beer that will drape you in deliciousness. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18112\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine.jpg\" alt=\"Wine, beer and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 12 episode 4.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1657\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18112\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-160x138.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-800x690.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-768x663.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-1020x880.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-1180x1018.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-960x829.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-240x207.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-375x324.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/05/cp1204-wine-520x449.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wine, beer and spirits that guests drank on the set of season 12 episode 4. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

A popular brew from Belgium, Palm dates to 1747 and integrates quality English hops with French barley and Belgian yeast. An international sip that will transport you to Europe in a glass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.latisimports.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rodenbach Caractère Rouge, Belgium\u003c/a> $24 (per 750 ml bottle)\u003cbr>\nPalm also produces a deliciously different sour red/brown beer from Rodenbach brewery. This tart and zesty ale is made by soaking sour cherries, raspberries, and cranberries with the beer for six months. It’s like sipping a fruit bowl of freshness and flavor. The fermentation process is unique, too, as top yeasts and flora mature for 24 months in 150-year-old oak casks. I was surprisingly pleased by the mouth-puckering, elegant quality of this beer. It’s almost like drinking a light-hearted Pinot Noir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.weingutwittmann.de/en/wine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2015 Wittmann Riesling Troken, Rheinhessen, Germany\u003c/a> $20\u003cbr>\nAs a Riesling lover, I’m constantly searching for bottles that showcase the best of the variety. This mineral-laden, citrus-scented, dry-styled beauty is one to seek out. Crafted by the Wittmann’s whose family-owned winery in the Rheinhessen has a viticultural history back to 1663, the grapes are biodynamically grown. Pick up a few bottles and try it for yourself with spicy food or a selection of fresh cheeses.

It was remarkable and ageless. It was as if the picture of Dorian Gray came to life in my glass. Can a wine still have life after 200 years? Yes, if it’s Madeira. A fortified made on the Portuguese island of Madiera located 400 miles off the coast of Africa, Madeira is the world’s longest-lived wine. It is also an underappreciated food wine. The Blandy’s dry Sercial is appealingly fresh with nutty aromas and an earthy elegance.

This tart and zesty ale is made by soaking sour cherries, raspberries, and cranberries with the beer for six months. It’s like sipping a fruit bowl of freshness and flavor. The fermentation process is unique, too, as top yeasts and flora mature for 24 months in 150-year-old oak casks. I was surprisingly pleased by the mouth-puckering, elegant quality of this beer.

This mineral-laden, citrus-scented, dry-styled beauty is one to seek out. Crafted by the Wittmann’s whose family-owned winery in the Rheinhessen has a viticultural history back to 1663, the grapes are biodynamically grown.

It was remarkable and ageless. It was as if the picture of Dorian Gray came to life in my glass. Can a wine still have life after 200 years? Yes, if it’s Madeira. A fortified made on the Portuguese island of Madiera located 400 miles off the coast of Africa, Madeira is the world’s longest-lived wine. It is also an underappreciated food wine. The Blandy’s dry Sercial is appealingly fresh with nutty aromas and an earthy elegance.

This version of Sauvignon hails from the cool climate Casablanca Valley, which is home to many of the country’s top whites and Pinot Noirs. Located on the western coast of Chile running alongside the coastal mountain range, Casablanca is influenced by cold Pacific Ocean currents providing a long, slow growing season. Ritual’s version of Sauvignon Blanc is crisp and fresh with a ping of vibrant acidity making it an ideal wine to pair with fish of any kind and fresh-from-the-garden salads. The wine marries layers of complexity with affordability and versatility. Stock up as it will become a household favorite.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.amavicellars.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2015 Amavi Semillon, Walla Walla Valley, Washington\u003c/a> $24\u003cbr>\nI have long adored the wines of Amavi Cellars in Washington’s Walla Walla Valley. Their focus on sustainability and quality is unmatched. This Semillon – a white variety known in the Bordeaux region of France – showcases how well the grape has taken to Washington’s sunny yet cool climate. Like its European brethren, Amavi blends a touch of Sauvignon Blanc with Semillon to balance its richness. Flashing a generous amount of ripe melon and citrus fruit character on the nose and palate, it also teases with minerality and brightness. A white with class and style.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.donnafugata.it/en/wines/mille-e-una-notte/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2011 Donnafugata “Mille e una Notte” Sicily, Italy\u003c/a> $80\u003cbr>\nWhen I opened this wine, I let a genie out of the bottle and the magical carpet ride of aromas and flavors began. Swirling dark berry fruit notes kicked off the vinous journey quickly followed by wafts of black licorice, earthiness and spice. Once I sipped the wine, the texture took over wrapping me in a plush cashmere-like cloak. It’s no doubt I was enamored as Donnafugata is one of Sicily’s famed producers. With a 160-year history and a name that means woman in flight, there is a whimsical yet serious approach to all their wines. The “Mille e una Notte” is a blend of the island’s signature red grape, Nero d’Avola, along with Petit Verdot and Syrah. It ranks among the top tier of wines I’ve sampled in the past several years. I encourage you to experience Donnafugata’s adventure in a glass. It’s worth every cent…and more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.broadsidewine.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2014 Broadside Cabernet Sauvignon, Paso Robles, California\u003c/a> $15\u003cbr>\nWhen it comes to affordable Cabernet Sauvignon to grace your dinner table and share with friends and family, look no further than Broadside. This Paso Robles winery shines a light on the type of powerful yet balanced reds that can be produced in the region. It’s brambly, blackberry-like fruit flavors are interlaced with notes of pepper and brown spice. A remarkably easy wine to sip and enjoy with grilled steak, roast pork or stuffed mushrooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Duplais Swiss Absinthe Verte, Switzerland\u003c/strong> $80\u003cbr>\nWhen the Green Fairy –“la fey verte” — visits, it’s said to bring transformation and enlightenment. Better known as Absinthe, this green-hued, aromatic elixir is crafted from a neutral spirit infused with a variety of herbs and plants like anise, fennel and wormwood, from which it takes its name. Dating back to 18th century Switzerland and France, it was sold as a medicinal remedy for just about everything before it was banned in 1910.

This version of Sauvignon hails from the cool climate Casablanca Valley, which is home to many of the country’s top whites and Pinot Noirs. Located on the western coast of Chile running alongside the coastal mountain range, Casablanca is influenced by cold Pacific Ocean currents providing a long, slow growing season. Ritual’s version of Sauvignon Blanc is crisp and fresh with a ping of vibrant acidity making it an ideal wine to pair with fish of any kind and fresh-from-the-garden salads. The wine marries layers of complexity with affordability and versatility. Stock up as it will become a household favorite.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Their focus on sustainability and quality is unmatched. This Semillon – a white variety known in the Bordeaux region of France – showcases how well the grape has taken to Washington’s sunny yet cool climate. Like its European brethren, Amavi blends a touch of Sauvignon Blanc with Semillon to balance its richness. Flashing a generous amount of ripe melon and citrus fruit character on the nose and palate, it also teases with minerality and brightness. A white with class and style.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.donnafugata.it/en/wines/mille-e-una-notte/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2011 Donnafugata “Mille e una Notte” Sicily, Italy\u003c/a> $80\u003cbr>\nWhen I opened this wine, I let a genie out of the bottle and the magical carpet ride of aromas and flavors began. Swirling dark berry fruit notes kicked off the vinous journey quickly followed by wafts of black licorice, earthiness and spice. Once I sipped the wine, the texture took over wrapping me in a plush cashmere-like cloak. It’s no doubt I was enamored as Donnafugata is one of Sicily’s famed producers. With a 160-year history and a name that means woman in flight, there is a whimsical yet serious approach to all their wines. The “Mille e una Notte” is a blend of the island’s signature red grape, Nero d’Avola, along with Petit Verdot and Syrah. It ranks among the top tier of wines I’ve sampled in the past several years. I encourage you to experience Donnafugata’s adventure in a glass. It’s worth every cent…and more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.broadsidewine.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2014 Broadside Cabernet Sauvignon, Paso Robles, California\u003c/a> $15\u003cbr>\nWhen it comes to affordable Cabernet Sauvignon to grace your dinner table and share with friends and family, look no further than Broadside. This Paso Robles winery shines a light on the type of powerful yet balanced reds that can be produced in the region. It’s brambly, blackberry-like fruit flavors are interlaced with notes of pepper and brown spice. A remarkably easy wine to sip and enjoy with grilled steak, roast pork or stuffed mushrooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Duplais Swiss Absinthe Verte, Switzerland\u003c/strong> $80\u003cbr>\nWhen the Green Fairy –“la fey verte” — visits, it’s said to bring transformation and enlightenment. Better known as Absinthe, this green-hued, aromatic elixir is crafted from a neutral spirit infused with a variety of herbs and plants like anise, fennel and wormwood, from which it takes its name. Dating back to 18th century Switzerland and France, it was sold as a medicinal remedy for just about everything before it was banned in 1910. No longer banned, Absinthe is undergoing a renaissance and Duplais is the place to start (and finish) your exploration. It’s the first post-ban Absinthe back on the market nearly a century later and is based on the original recipe from Switzerland. Traditionally served in a small glass with a sugar cube drizzled with water, pour yourself a glass and head to green fairyland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18050\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18050\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/cp1202-wine.jpg\" alt=\"Wines that guests drank on the set of season 12 episode 2.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/cp1202-wine.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/cp1202-wine-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/cp1202-wine-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/cp1202-wine-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/cp1202-wine-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/cp1202-wine-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/cp1202-wine-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/cp1202-wine-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/cp1202-wine-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/cp1202-wine-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wines that guests drank on the set of season 12 episode 2. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

This elegantly-styled dry rosé qualifies as distinctive AND delicious. Hailing from the Lombardy region of Italy, Franciacorta is an area designated to make top-quality sparkling wine in the traditional method. The grape varieties permitted in Franciacorta include Chardonnay and Pinot Noir (known as Pinot Nero in Italy) and a touch of Pinot Bianco. This version – from the famed house of Antinori – is 100 percent Pinot Nero.

One of the best visits I’ve ever had (and that’s saying a lot) is a day spent on the island of Santorini with Yiannis Paraskevopoulos. He is the co-owner of Gaia (pronounced Yeah-Ah) and a fascinating man. This complex yet crisp white is made from the island’s signature grape, Assyrtiko. Using only wild yeast strains to ferment the wine in both tank and oak barrels, the resulting white has a character all its own.

I discovered this boutique producer last year after sampling their stellar reds. Located in the northern reaches of Alexander Valley along the winding road dotted with other recognized names like Jordan, Medlock Ames was founded by Chris James and Ames Morison. The vineyards are farmed organically and they focus on sustainability in all wines they produce. This stylish Merlot captures a European-esque vibrancy coupled with California suppleness. Next time you visit Sonoma, put a stop at Medlock Ames on your itinerary.

A spirit born in France’s Cognac region, it is made by distilling grapes grown in bucolic western France. Pierre Ferrand’s vines are planted in the chalky soil of the Grande Champagne area (not to be confused with the sparkling wine region of Champagne in northeastern France). Their singular, stunning Cognacs are crafted with a sense of pride and history. The 1840 Cognac from Ferrand is an homage to the pioneers of another craft – the cocktail kind. Stylistically, this bottling is based upon a rare version of Cognac from 1840 and is rich and lush. It transports you to a time when Cognac reigned supreme in cocktails such as Juleps and Punchers. Treat yourself to a snifter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18005\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18005\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920.jpg\" alt=\"Wines that guests drank on the set of the premiere episode of season 12.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wines that guests drank on the set of the premiere episode of season 12. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n",

Note: the current vintage is 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://maisonferrand.com/en/content/pierre-ferrand-cognac/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pierre Ferrand Cognac “1840” 1er Cru de Cognac, Grande Champagne, France\u003c/a> $45\u003cbr>\nOne of the best ways to end an evening is by savoring a glass of Cognac. A spirit born in France’s Cognac region, it is made by distilling grapes grown in bucolic western France. Pierre Ferrand’s vines are planted in the chalky soil of the Grande Champagne area (not to be confused with the sparkling wine region of Champagne in northeastern France). Their singular, stunning Cognacs are crafted with a sense of pride and history. The 1840 Cognac from Ferrand is an homage to the pioneers of another craft – the cocktail kind. Stylistically, this bottling is based upon a rare version of Cognac from 1840 and is rich and lush. It transports you to a time when Cognac reigned supreme in cocktails such as Juleps and Punchers. Treat yourself to a snifter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18005\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18005\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920.jpg\" alt=\"Wines that guests drank on the set of the premiere episode of season 12.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2017/04/CP1201-wine-wendygoodfriend1920-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wines that guests drank on the set of the premiere episode of season 12. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

A mostly Pinot Noir-based blend with Chardonnay, the wine is rich and fruity. Not a Champagne for those who like lean and crisp, this is generous style. Paired with tuna tartare or seared salmon, it’s a bubbly for lovers of lush.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://tascadalmerita.it/en/wines/cavallo-delle-fate-grillo_49\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2014 Tasca d’Almerita “Tenuta Regaliali” Grillo, Sicilia DOC, Italy\u003c/a> $22\u003cbr>\nWhen people ask me to recommend an adventurous white, I suggest Grillo. It’s my go-to white wine for unique citrusy freshness layered with a fleshy texture. Tasca’s Cavallo Delle Fate version of the native Sicilian white variety is complex and classy. It’s a stunning example of Grillo and ranks among the best from Sicily.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://kutchwines.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2012 Kutch Pinot Noir “McDougall Ranch” Sonoma Coast, California\u003c/a> $55\u003cbr>\nJamie Kutch is a winemaker with personality – just like the wines he crafts. Each of his vineyard-designate bottlings is a mirror that reflects the place they originate. The McDougall is always my top choice in his lineup of Pinot Noir as it expresses the succulence of a Pinot fruit while maintaining the vibrancy and elegance for which Kutch wines are known.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.jlohr.com/wines/j-lohr-cuvee-series/2012-j-lohr-pom/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2012 J.

Lohr in the early 1970s with vineyards in the Monterey area, he brought attention to what is now considered a world-class growing region. Even though the winery has a decades-deep history in central California, this wine is an ode to Bordeaux in France. Inspired by the blends of the Right Bank – in this case the Pomerol region – it’s a blend of mostly Merlot and Cabernet Franc with a kick of Malbec. These grapes give a velvety texture to the red with concentrated dark fruit flavors and exotic, spicy aromas. It’s a wine to wrap yourself in and indulge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_17819\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17819\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine.jpg\" alt=\"Wines that guests drank on the set of the sixteenth episode of season 11.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-400x267.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wines that guests drank on the set of the sixteenth episode of season 11. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n",

It’s my go-to white wine for unique citrusy freshness layered with a fleshy texture. Tasca’s Cavallo Delle Fate version of the native Sicilian white variety is complex and classy. It’s a stunning example of Grillo and ranks among the best from Sicily.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://kutchwines.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2012 Kutch Pinot Noir “McDougall Ranch” Sonoma Coast, California\u003c/a> $55\u003cbr>\nJamie Kutch is a winemaker with personality – just like the wines he crafts. Each of his vineyard-designate bottlings is a mirror that reflects the place they originate. The McDougall is always my top choice in his lineup of Pinot Noir as it expresses the succulence of a Pinot fruit while maintaining the vibrancy and elegance for which Kutch wines are known.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.jlohr.com/wines/j-lohr-cuvee-series/2012-j-lohr-pom/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2012 J. Lohr “Cuvée POM” Paso Robles, California\u003c/a> $50\u003cbr>\nJerry Lohr is a pioneer in the California wine industry. Founding J. Lohr in the early 1970s with vineyards in the Monterey area, he brought attention to what is now considered a world-class growing region. Even though the winery has a decades-deep history in central California, this wine is an ode to Bordeaux in France. Inspired by the blends of the Right Bank – in this case the Pomerol region – it’s a blend of mostly Merlot and Cabernet Franc with a kick of Malbec. These grapes give a velvety texture to the red with concentrated dark fruit flavors and exotic, spicy aromas. It’s a wine to wrap yourself in and indulge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_17819\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17819\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine.jpg\" alt=\"Wines that guests drank on the set of the sixteenth episode of season 11.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-400x267.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1116-wine-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wines that guests drank on the set of the sixteenth episode of season 11. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

More on the melon and tropical fruit scale than citrus/herbal side, it sports a deep minerality that intrigues. Its complexity will appeal to SB fans, while the lack of overt green notes will appeal to Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio drinkers looking to enjoy a great bottle of white. Pair alongside steamed fish in lemon beurre blanc sauce served over jasmine rice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.mcevoyranch.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2015 McEvoy Ranch “Rosebud” Rosé, Carneros, California\u003c/a> $22\u003cbr>\nMcEvoy is one of the most beautiful spots to visit in northern California (and I’ve been to a lot of places). Located in the rolling hills of Petaluma, the ranch is blanketed with olive trees. McEvoy Ranch is primarily known for its award-winning olive oil and beauty products made from olive oil, but wine is the newest addition to their roster. This crisp, dry-styled pink is a blend of Syrah and Pinot Noir and will please Rosé drinkers looking to expand beyond French versions. It’s a wine to sip all year long and will make an ideal partner for the Thanksgiving table.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.mcevoyranch.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2011 McEvoy Ranch “Red Piano” blend, North Coast, California\u003c/a> $35\u003cbr>\nThe McEvoy family has a history as pioneers. Nan McEvoy’s grandfather started the San Francisco Chronicle in 1865 and she was Chairwoman of the paper until her retirement in 1995. She then took on the project of planting 1,000 Tuscan olive tree seedlings in the Petaluma hills and creating McEvoy ranch. Her son Nion is now at the helm, and with the wine project, is continuing the family’s innovative spirit. There is a red piano at the property showcasing the family’s love of music so it makes sense that this succulent, juicy Red Piano is an eclectic blend of grapes like Syrah, Montepulciano, and Refosco. To me, it reflects the heart and soul of McEvoy – unique and stylish but with a nod to the fun of life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_17790\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17790\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine.jpg\" alt=\"Wines that guests drank on the set of the fifteenth episode of season 11.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-400x267.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wines that guests drank on the set of the fifteenth episode of season 11. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n",

Located in the rolling hills of Petaluma, the ranch is blanketed with olive trees. McEvoy Ranch is primarily known for its award-winning olive oil and beauty products made from olive oil, but wine is the newest addition to their roster. This crisp, dry-styled pink is a blend of Syrah and Pinot Noir and will please Rosé drinkers looking to expand beyond French versions. It’s a wine to sip all year long and will make an ideal partner for the Thanksgiving table.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.mcevoyranch.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2011 McEvoy Ranch “Red Piano” blend, North Coast, California\u003c/a> $35\u003cbr>\nThe McEvoy family has a history as pioneers. Nan McEvoy’s grandfather started the San Francisco Chronicle in 1865 and she was Chairwoman of the paper until her retirement in 1995. She then took on the project of planting 1,000 Tuscan olive tree seedlings in the Petaluma hills and creating McEvoy ranch. Her son Nion is now at the helm, and with the wine project, is continuing the family’s innovative spirit. There is a red piano at the property showcasing the family’s love of music so it makes sense that this succulent, juicy Red Piano is an eclectic blend of grapes like Syrah, Montepulciano, and Refosco. To me, it reflects the heart and soul of McEvoy – unique and stylish but with a nod to the fun of life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_17790\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17790\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/checkplease/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine.jpg\" alt=\"Wines that guests drank on the set of the fifteenth episode of season 11.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-400x267.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2016/10/cp1115-wine-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wines that guests drank on the set of the fifteenth episode of season 11. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
