Naked Space Exhibit Time and Space
May 12 (Wednesday) and 13 (Thursday)
Are Rapidly Approaching
This week's digital drawing is the Invitation for our Exhibit. Jackie Jones-Lee was going to do a tradtional invitation for us, but last week was hectic, and we were missing each other in tradtional "meeting" fashion. We followed our own tradition of moving along horizontally (feminist logic) with whatever we had. And so this morning, having got the program well under way, an invitation just popped right out of it. We're running with close time limits so if you've got changes to propose, you'll have to do so quickly.
Because we've been working mostly over the Internet this semester, many of you are unaware of what others are doing. Meetings are anathema in a fast-track world. So Michael and Pat and I decided that a Table of Contents for the Exhibit Poem, would include links to all project, and soon, names of all contributors. I'm working on it. Current draft up at Table of Contents. You should check as I complete this, and be sure you are correctly identified.
Because this is a hypertext poem there is no printed version. But we will print a simpler program so you'll have something tangible with your name on it. This means if you don't make sure I have all the information on your project soon, you might miss getting your name on the program. You have to leave us printing time.
The activity at this semester's exhibit will be the decorating of a "Pimp Goblet," "Holy Grail," "Chalice of Tribute," "Chalice of Love" . . . whatever you want to call the cup of life and love that is the subject of Humankind's never ending search, from Sir Galahad and his fellow Knights through the young Turks (Kim's Pimps) through the search today for humanism through spirituality. A sample is in Pat's office. The first painting on the site was:
Chalice of Tribute
Complete with coloring sheet
We'll have glue and sparkles and glitter and as many little plastic goblets as we can afford at Table 13 in the Gallery. We'll hve as many volunteers as the week of classes for the semester can afford. If you have a little glass that you can bring to decorate, and any suitable decorations lying around the house, that could help, because we're expecting a large crowd this Spring.
By the way, adults are having as much fun with the goblets as the children, so bring some treasures to play with yourself.
First draft of program, starting to put exhibit items in order, according to the Exhibit Poem links. Be sure to follow this, so that you can make sure it's accurate with respect to your work.
The Naked Space Exhibit will take place on Wednesday, May 12, and Thursday May 13, from 10:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. in the western-most sector of the Grand Hall. You are welcome to come and go as fits your schedule. Please invite your family, children, friends, neighbors, etc. to share in our gallery display and discussions. We'll need help setting our displays up in the morning and taking them down in the evening. And we'll definitely needs some supervisory help for goblet decorating at Table 13. Thank you for volunteering. jeanne

Travel Opportunity to Thailand.
CSUDH course credit offered. About $2000, including airfare.Chiang Mai Field Trip Flyer. Dr. John Quicker, Criminologist, offers a summer field trip to Chiang Mai in Northern Thailand.
That's where I rode an elephant in the elephant camp for working elephants. Elephants were used for construction in Thailand until the 20th century brought modern machines. The elephant camps are like welfare safety nets for the elephants who no longer have jobs, and the people who used to have jobs caring for the elephants.
Chiang Mai is also where I released a whole family of birds in the name of freedom. They usually only give you one in a small cage to release, but they sensed that I wanted to turn the whole batch loose, and they offered me a huge cage from which I could let them all go. All the little birds were crammed in like sardines. They were so happy to be released. jeanne

That's more expensive than an introductory MacBook Pro and not everyone will be able to afford that.
Consequently, this is an issue where the administration can afford to draw lines in the sand and refuse to compromise.
My friend group—the gay nightclub sort of people—were always like, 'Oh I wish I could afford to do that.'
So then why—if they probably can't find a job or afford the apartment that they live in—are Israelis so damn happy?
Germany could not afford to build an army to equal France's and also an air force to equal Britain's.

Old English geforðian "to put forth, contribute; further, advance; carry out, accomplish," from ge- completive prefix (see a- (1)) + forðian "to further," from forð "forward, onward" (see forth).
Change of -th- to -d- took place late 16c. (and also transformed burthen and murther into their modern forms). Prefix shift to af- took place 16c. under mistaken belief that it was a Latin word in ad-. Notion of "accomplish" (late Old English) gradually became "manage to buy or maintain; have enough money (to do something)" (1833). Older sense is preserved in afford (one) an opportunity. Related: Afforded; affording.

If you have not used postMessage (or Cross Document Messaging to use it's proper title) it's a way of securely sending messages between frames even when the documents passing messages are on different domains. To learn more about it you can read this introduction that we wrote during the IE8 launch.
It works in IE8, IE9 and IE9 for WP7… however in IE it only works for embedded frames. This can cause issues for some users that maybe using it to pass messages back from pop-up windows or other tabs as they receive the error message "No Such Interface supported".
An example of the issue can be seen on the following test page. Click the Create Popup button and then in the new window click the Call postMessage directly button. In IE, this demo will fail and the script will display the exception "No Such Interface supported". The issue also exists if you want to use post Message across tabs as demonstrated in the following test.
There are some instances where you can workaround this problem. If the popup window instead calls a script function in its window.opener page (click the Call opener's proxy function button), the script function can call postMessage to send a message to the child frame. However the workaround isn't useful in cases where you are working cross domain, because same-origin-policy dictates that the popup window and the window.opener page must be from the same origin in order to call each other's script functions.

Hi guys, I have been working almost 2 months on a project and today I browsed through videohive and found an item, which is very similar to mine. Even the fonts are the same :\ Well this speaks maybe of lack of creativity from me but however I want to upload the file, but to be sure that its discussed here first,because I dont want any troubles. Here is the project , which I think is very well done and here is mine . Please advise me , does they are too similar to be accepted and any other thoughts on the project are much appreciated! The project is 80% done so it will be slightly different.
looks different to me.
fonts are free to use for everybody, will be really funny if someone will use a font then no one else can use it
if you think certain parts are similar just change them
looks nice but colors are bland. I'm assuming is just a draft version and you wanted to use those bright colors as the item you pointed out.
thanks for the reply doru, yes about the colors, the situation is just like you pointed it out
hard to say with the colors. Looks to me that one can't copyright the colors of a project.
bw, this happens to me all the time. I work on a project and then someone will just pop up with something really similar.
I agree about the colors and fonts but the style is also the same thats whats bother me
We've been seeing a lot of these kinds of projects lately, but most of the time, they're different enough to be considered acceptable. I wouldn't worry about them looking too similar.
As long as the quality of the design and animation is high enough, chances are it'll be approved for sale.
I believe you and ur's good

I had a nose tab break in the original pair. I only wanted a replacement pair of nose pads, but I was given a new pair of frames with lenses. That was a unexpected perk. Thanks very much. This type of customer care is on par with Nordstrom. I will not shop anywhere else for glasses.
Color: Tortoise; Size: S
I have bought several glasses from Eye Buy Direct for the last 5 years. I have always been very satisfied, but this last pair I purchased I'm very excited about. These glasses are made extremely strong & are designer frames! If I purchased these glasses at a brick & motar eye glass shop, they would cost me over $500. At Eye Buy Direct, I paid under $150. 5 Star ratings*****

Reacting to a New York Times column in which Frank Rich claimed Fox News was responsible for violent acts like the murder of abortionist George Tiller or the Holocaust Museum shooting, on MSNBC on Friday, John Harwood remarked: "I love Frank's columns, but I don't believe that cable television causes people to become violent."
Harwood, who is a reporter for the Times as well as the co-host of a weekly Friday show on MSNBC, The New York Times Edition, began by quoting Rich's latest Op-Ed: "And here's Frank Rich on the 'silent enablers' of what he calls 'extremist Obama haters,' like the actor John Voight. Frank writes, 'Voight's devout wish was to "bring an end to this false prophet Obama." This kind of rhetoric, with its pseudo-scriptural call to action, is toxic. It's getting louder each day of the Obama presidency and no one, not even Fox News viewers, can say they weren't warned.'"
After Harwood expressed that he thought Rich went too far, co-host Norah O'Donnell agreed and added: "Yeah and I think people end up hearing what they want to hear. They latch on to something. And they hear – I've heard people listen to the same channel before and hear two different – totally different things. That's part of it, I think."

Opinions and experiences of visitors with Centre Naturiste Le Clapotis.
It's a very pleasant site and the staff are welcoming.
It's very wooded and might be difficult for larger caravans / campers as most of the pitches are rather small. The large number of trees make it easy to find shade - but not always sun. The atosphere is very quiet and respectful. One the down side the pool is down a steep flight of steps and there is no guard. There are only 10 sun beds available which was a real disappointment. The showers / toilets are / are being upgraded one block is excellent - the other (near the bar) is OK
Shower water is 'warm' but not hot. Washing up sinks have unlimited very hot water.
Shop when we visited (3rd week in August) was almost empty and very disappointing.
Lake side ideal for windsurfing but could do with seating / sun loungers as it would then be very pleasant.

The two met while students at the University of Texas at Arlington when both pledged the same fraternity and were also both members of a dance performance company. It was an immediate case of "opposites attract" that has continued to this day. Brown's interests range from Sex and the City to jazzercize while Monreal's interests range from bad "B" action and horror films to boxing. They share a love for animals and especially dogs and cats, as well as for movies, game nights, traveling and live theater. They also love spoiling their eight nieces and nephews and their five "fur children" — four dogs and one cat. Brown is an interior designer and Monreal is a police officer.

TEL AVIV (Feb. 24)
Funeral services were held yesterday at the old Tel Aviv cemetery for Mordechai Namir who died Saturday at his home at the age of 78. The former Mayor of Tel Aviv, secretary general of Histadrut and Minister of Labor was eulogized by Mayor Shlomo Lahat, Histadrut secretary general Yeruham Meshel, and Yehoshua Rabinowitz who was a former Tel Aviv Mayor and is presently Minister of Finance. For the last six years Mr. Namir was confined to his home after suffering a stroke.
Born in the Ukraine, he received a traditional Jewish education and studied law and economics at Odessa University. He was arrested in the early 1920s for Zionist activities. Upon his release in 1924 he came to Palestine and two years later became the secretary of the Labor Party. He became circulation manager of Davar and in 1929 was named director of Histadrut's statistical department. In 1944 he became a member of the Histadrut Executive.
Mr. Namir was prominent as a diplomat. He was a special envoy to Rumania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia and then was appointed counselor of the Israeli legation in Moscow. In 1949 he replaced Golda Meir as Ambassador to Moscow. In 1951 he was elected secretary general of Histadrut and was subsequently elected to the Knesset.
In 1956 he was Minister of Labor and in 1959 was elected Tel Aviv's Mayor, a position he held for almost 10 years and then relinquished the post because of failing health. He had been active as a member of the Tel Aviv Municipal Council since 1935, was a member of the Haganah's national headquarters, and had been a member of the presidium of the World Zionist Action Committee and the World Jewish Congress.
During his tenure as Tel Aviv Mayor he began a slum clearance program on the beachfront and a project to establish a business and commercial center there. He was instrumental in expelling the Israeli Communist Party from Histadrut in 1953. Mr. Namir was the author of "Work in Progress," "Industry in Palestine," and "Yearly Economic Palestine Summaries."

The dispute arose after Chambers was banned for taking steroids in 2003. Not only was he stripped of medals, but fellow relay runners - including Campbell - had to surrender theirs too, as the team's performance as a whole had been chemically tainted. Even then, Campbell was ready to welcome his team-mate back once the ban had run its course. But to protect the next generation, he wanted those who had pushed the drugs exposed, and it was Chambers' failure to point the finger that triggered his weekend refusal to join the lap of honour.
It is sad for Campbell that he now looks set to retire on this sour note, and sad too for fans to see Britain's only gold at the championships tarnished. But Campbell deserves praise for his stance as well as his athleticism. The pervasive reach of drugs in sport was seen again on Sunday, when the police made a raid very near the stadium. Unless this menace is checked, the healthiest of hobbies could become a medical risk, and fair competition will never get off the starting blocks.

South African Wine Night
I recently took a trip to South Africa, and as wine lovers are apt to do, I filled my suitcase with wine sleeves so that I could bring a taste of Africa back with me. Of course, as wine lovers are also apt to do, there was more wine purchased than wine sleeves brought and I had to wrap a few bottles in towels…

Wine of the Week – Inspiration Vineyards Russian River Valley 2009 Viognier
It's intriguing to me the high quality Rhone wines that can come out of the Russian River Valley, especially since this is known as a 'cool' climate, and the Southern Rhone is warm. While not widely planted, you can find Rhone whites Marsanne, Roussanne, & Viognier here. Grenache blanc doesn't seem to exist yet in RRV, my likely hobby planting may be one of the first. Excellent Syrah (which does well in both cool and warm climates, with a big flavor profile difference) and small plantings of Grenache can also be found.
I am one of the odder ducks perhaps, as I also like Russian River Zinfandel. Dry Creek Valley is of course the respected King, but there are quite a decent amount of very old vine, head trained Zin here.
What's my point? I guess that despite being cooler, we have a long enough growing season and hang time, plus cool foggy nights. This allows for longer, slower ripening, good acidity, and good flavor profile maturation, without excess ripeness and alcohol, and loss of acidity. (As sugars increase, acid levels eventually decrease.) Acidity is what makes wine food friendly. Alcohol is what makes you fall down.
Achieving a Balanced California Viognier
What does this have to do with Inspiration Vineyards Viognier? It's from Russian River, and I am comparing it side by side with a Dry Creek (much warmer climate) Viognier. California Viognier has unfortunately (earned in some cases) gotten a bit of a bad rap, for being too big, flabby (lacking acidity) and overly floral.
This is a varietal that is characteristically quite floral AND lower on acidity levels, so over ripening it is a dangerous proposition. Additionally some producers are leaving some sweetness (Residual sugar, or RS) on it to appeal to mass palates. A tiny bit of RS can be a positive thing in achieving balance, but some I have tried exceed that.
About Inspiration Vineyards
Inspiration Vineyards recently came on my radar in 2010 when they moved to a new tasting room in Santa Rosa (by Carol Shelton) and joined the Wine Road.
Jon & Barbara Philips have been chasing their dream, started making wine in 1999, and in 2001 plunged right in buying a house and 4.5 acres in the Russian River Valley. I have had the pleasure to meet them both. Passionate about wine, the region, the community. Jon is a wine geek extraordinaire. You can read more on theirA story here. They make a variety of wines; my favorites being their Rhones (Syrah & this Viognier) and Burgundian wines (Pinot Noir & Chardonnay.)

Wine Review – 2009 d'Arenberg the Hermit Crab Viognier Marsanne
My relationship with Rhones from Oz is still in the courtship stage, after too many poor Shiraz experiences. My palate is not fan of over ripe, flabby Shiraz and Viognier one can pick up if not careful.
One of my favorite sections in Randall Grahm's "Been Doon So Long." is where he pokes fun for a few pages 'Proper Syrah' terminology vs. "Antipodean Syrah" (Australian.)
e.g. (paraphrased)
Proper Syrah: Name of the Wine is determined by the Geographical location of the vineyard
A. Syrah: Name of the Wine is determined by: Cute animal name + geographical feature e.g. Wallaby Ridge, Wombat Gorge
Proper Syrah: Primary flavors: white pepper, anise, meat, bacon fat, and licorice
A. Syrah: Primary flavors: blackberry sundae and American Oak
It's funnier when Randall writes it, and there are two pages worth. It's meant in jest, obviously great Rhones come out of Australia, and I look forward to trying many again this year at the Rhone nirvana Hospice du Rhone.
I was wandering through K&L Wine, my 'supplier' in San Fran awaiting will call pick up and saw this. The 90 WS score didn't really woo me, and the <$15 price more scared me. It's not a value if I pour it down the drain. But I am always curious to try white Rhone blends, and Marsanne always adds interesting character a blend, especially Viognier based, so I tossed a bottle in the cart. Glad I did.
2009 d'Arenberg the Hermit Crab Viognier Marsanne
Viognier is the primary varietal in this blend at 72%, the other 28% being Marsanne.
To The Eye: pale yellow straw; very clear
On The Nose: Abundant; white peach, green apple, guava, lime; oyster shell
In The Mouth: Lush; big stone fruit, citrus, melon. Some minerality. Juicy, Good acidity at finish, only 13% alcohol.
Recommendation:a Quaffer solo; have to ponder more what food I would pair with this besides shellfish. Would please a wide variety of palates.
Rating: Very Good, 89 Points
Where to Buy: d'Arenberg usually has good distribution, Google it or check with your local wine shop. (And always inquire if they can order it.)
K&L Wines has ~5o bottles left at $12.99.

Expand Your Wine Horizons July 11 with a Hot Night of Kinky Whites at Thomas George Estates
Learning about and tasting wine, has been an ongoing, progressive journey, these last 20 years. Along the way, 'breakthrough' events have occurred that have completely transformed what I drink and enjoy.
The first of those was expanding to white wines. I occasionally hear casual wine drinkers utter 'real wine drinkers only drink reds.' It's not up to me to define what is or isn't a real wine drinker, but any serious wine taster, writer, or industry person I have ever met, usually has an appreciation for both. Unfortunately for many people, white wine is associated with chardonnay, which invokes the ABC – 'Anything But Chardonnay' syndrome. For many, this was a backlash from the over popularity of oaky butter bombs California style of chardonnay.
Both philosophies are unfortunate, and cripple your wine education and experiences. The range of white wine varietals (grapes), and styles is staggering, and wonderful, if you'll venture beyond the usual Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc. And thats not to malign those; Chardonnay is like an empty canvas, and the many styles, especially from France, are staggering. Look for the popular 'naked' or unoaked chardonnay, now more commonly found. Ask your wine store for neutral oaked French (or any country) to try something different.
But in addition, there is a wide range of incredibly interesting white wines, from light, crisp, low alcohol, to big white wines with presence and mouthfeel. Some of my faves include Viognier, Marsanne, Roussanne, Grenache Blanc (all Rhone whites) as well as Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, and so many others. White wines also generally offer broader ranges for food pairings.
The other event that changed my wine tasting experience was my (never ending) discovery of Rhone wines, wines varietals that originated and/or associated with the Rhone Valley in France. I had enjoyed Viognier for years, it was actually a white wine I stumbled across, that was touted as a white wine for red wine drinkers. It generally has good density, weight, mouthfeel, and when its fermented dry (some CA vintners leave a tiny bit of sweetness) is a very appealing wine.
I was well on my way to a steady relationship with Rhones, and then I attended the 2010 Hospice du Rhone in Paso Robles, the mecca event for Rhone wines, which I HIGHLY recommend. I went from dating to marriage overnight, and now am often nicknamed 'Rhonehound.' At the recent Wine Bloggers Conference in Walla Walla, I hunted down as many Rhone producers as I could, like I was on a quest for the Grail.
Ok, so what does all THAT have to do with a Hot Night of Kinky Whites at Thomas George Winery? It's a new event, created and promoted by local wine celeb Ziggy the Wine Gal.
No, I am not promoting this event for money. I am passionate about these varietals, and consumers exposure to them. Heck I even paid for tickets, when I often get press passes. Besides how could a wine blog called 'Simple Hedonisms' NOT attend an event called 'Kinky Whites'!
Join local wineries Davis Family Vineyards, Dutton-Goldfield, Joseph Swan, and Thomas George Estates, pouring their exotic, white wines; Gewurztraminer, Marsanne, Pinot Blanc, Riesling, Roussanne & Viognier! Frolic in the vineyard and dine in the awesome Thomas George wine cave, pairing these unique white wines with exquisite dishes prepared by Chef Christopher Greenwald of Bay Laurel Culinary.
This is the first of what is hoped to be an annual event. You can purchase tickets online here or Call the winery at 707-431-8031 to reserve.Tickets are $100 per person, $69 for companion. Event starts at 5 p.m., hope to see you there!
Simple Hedonisms gets 'Rhoned' in Paso Robles at HdR 2010
For weeks I was writing, Tweeting, and adding Facebook Posts about last weekend's event; Hospice du Rhone. I had to admit, after all the build up, I wondered if I was going to be disappointed – kinda like that movie that gets so many rave reviews that you feel let down after so much hype. (Spoiler – the event met and exceeded expectations.)
We left Thursday morning so that we could get to Paso in time to hit a few tasting rooms, as the agenda was jammed pack Friday and Saturday, and Sunday we had to head back early. (I will write a seperate article on the tasting experience, but the sample of four visited had great hospitality and wines.)
It had been a decade since I had been to Paso Robles, and much had evolved; the region had expanded significantly, but so had I as a passionate wine writer and consumer. Wine is such an amazing thing, after 20 years of consuming it, reading, traveling , tasting – the more I learn, the more I expose my palette to new things, the more doors it opens up to enter; seeming now at an accelerated pace. Part of this expansion has been discovering the full breadth of Rhone wines. I discovered Viognier and Syrah years ago, followed by Grenache, but getting to experience and appreciate many more of the 22 Rhone wines, both as individual varietals, and often blended together, has been one of the most enjoyable, never ending discoveries I have embarked on. I could gush more, but will save that for future articles and thoughts I'd love to share.
One of the interesting phenomenon about Paso Robles, besides doubling in wineries in a decade to over 180, it has become a concentration of planting for an array of Rhone varietals, something Sonoma County is lacking outside of a few. The town has also expanded with restaurants and cultural aspects, yet retains much of the small town feel, and 'wild west.' Its off the beaten path (good thing or moving would be tempting) but I can't think of a better place for a (US based) host of a global celebration of Rhone varietals. (I mean hey, the Rhone Valley in France wouldn't bite.)
Day 1 – The Rhone's Begin
Seminar : We Have Come a Long Way Baby ! The Past, Present and Future of South African Syrah
Producers: Marc Kent, Boekenhoutskloof; David Trafford, De Trafford; Eben Sadie, Fairview Winery; Andrea Mullineux, Mullineaux Family Wines; Eben Sadie, Sadie Family Wines; Tulbagh Mountain Vineyards; Chris Mullineux, Stellenzicht
Moderated by: James Molesworth, Wine Spectator
You have to be serious about wine, and a have a spit cup, to start tasting Syrah at 9 a.m. An incredible array of syrah's were discussed, and poured, covering the history and diversity of South African syrah. South Africa has a amazing breadth of varietals and soil diversity; 250,000 acres planted by 4000 growers, with wine produced by over 500 wineries. You can learn more about their wines at The Wines of South Africa website.
Syrah releases were poured from as far back as a Mullineux Fairview 1986 Reserve 'Shiraz' to 2008 current release. I find the ongoing marketing distinction of Syrah and Shiraz interesting. Genetically the same, some Vintners don't really mean to imply anything calling it Shiraz vs Syrah; where as others jumped on the popular Shiraz bandwagon during its boom. I think that can backfire as stylistically Shiraz came to be known as a young, highly oaked, fruit bomb, which some experienced wine drinkers, self included, will shun. Commentary seemed to indicate a trend for South Africa seems to be to move back to Syrah naming from Shiraz.
Seminar – Côte Rôtie – The Next Generation
Producer: Stéphane Ogier of Domaine Michel and Stéphane Ogier, Ampuis, France
Moderated by: John Alban, Founding Director of Hospice du Rhône
In retrospect, this was my favorite seminar, both for wines tasted and the experience. Unfortunately two of the wines did not make it to be able to taste, but the other 7 were incredible. Stéphane gave a great presentation in his viticulture and wine making philosphies, excuding his passion for both as he spoke.
- The 2008 Viognier Condrieu really impressed me and was one of my favorites; harvested late, full bodied, but only 12.5 % alcohol. The importer told me at the tasting that afternoon Stéphane's wines were available at my favorite importer, K&L Wines, but they are sold out of all, much to my chagrin.
- The 2007 Syrah L'Ame Soeur, Vin de Pays was beautiful, Smoke and earth on the nose. I was impressed with the use of natural yeast.
- The 2007 Ogier Syrah, Belle Helene, Cote-Rotie, was planted 70 years ago by his grandfather. Smoky , floral nose; blackberry, black fruit. Nice finish.
- The finish was a 2005 Ogier Roussanne. Amazing golden color, honey, melon on nose. Stéphane is holding til 2014 for release; impressive restraint!
Rosé Lunch
The tradition for the Friday lunch has always been Rosé wines. Food was prepared by Chef John Toulze of the girl & the fig hailing from my own Sonoma County. A nice choice of Rhone rosé was available, many from South Africa.
Friday Rhône Rendezvous Tasting
I was thankful for the extra hour for prior to the public tasting, to make the rounds on a white tour, before diving into reds. The roster of Rhône producers pouring was almost intimidating. There was a wide array of artisan food offerings throughout the tasting – but I have to confess I was so distracted by the selection of Rhone varietals and producers I hardly ate any, nor gave a second glance to the Chef demonstrations.
The iRhône HdR iPhone app that I had written an early review of was very useful for the event, although not all Producers stuck to their list. (I was also a bit surprised by a few who had nothing but barrel samples, always a treat, but expected finished wines as well.) Since my review the App had been updated to allow Tweeting of Tasting Notes right to the #HdR2010 Twitter Hashtag, which was great.
My white run unearthed some great white Rhone finds, both single varietal and blends, including the blend from Alta Colina, the white blend and the Viognier from Denner Vineyards, the Fausse Piste 2009 Decouvertes Yakima Viognier,and the Kukkula 2008 Vaalea Derby Paso Robles Viogner rousanne blend. (If you can't tell, I was focused on Paso producers.)
The public had come in by the time I started my red run, so slowed down, and palette fatigue began to creep in a bit. My iPhone was also about out of battery, so unfortunately tasting notes and Tweeting stopped. Many great finds again, including a number from Hug Cellars, including their 2008 el Pape Central Coast GSM.
Evening event – Sommelier Soirée
Headed back to the hotel for a quick break, and got tied up attending to some personal things, so was late to this event. HdR is blessed to be attended by Top Sommeliers, hailing from throughout the United States. For this event, they pilfer their personal cellars to bring an exceptional array large format bottles. Entertainment was by the Grammy Award winner Louie Ortega and his band. I did get to taste some great wines, and meet some interesting people, including the US based Ambassador of New Zealand wines. (How do I get one of those jobs?!)
After an amazing, long day. it was time to retire to the hotel and dream of Day Two's lineups at Hospice du Rhone. Come back for Part 2 – cheers!
Wine Review – Reynoso Vineyards White Blend – 2009 Long Gamma
Tonight I am swirling in my glass a very interesting white wine blend, that is a project from Reynoso Vineyards, a small Cloverdale grower and vintner.
Long Gamma is a new brand that Reynoso just launched, a white blend and a red blend; priced to be affordable, very drinkable, made from premium Estate grapes.
The red blend (Syrah, Zin, Petite Sirah) will be released shortly. The term 'Long Gamma' is a bit of a mystery, but I believe refers to a Stock Trading term, which given that there are ex-Chicago denizens in this project, may be indicative of careers prior to the Wine Industry.
I was immediately intrigued by Long Gamma white blend when I learned the blended varietals; 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 25% Viognier, 15% Gewurtzraminer.
My taste buds immediately perked up at Viogner, a white Rhone varietal that adds great florals and excellent mouthfeel, whether blended or bottled as a varietal.
Wine Tasting Notes
Color: Bright pale yellow, with a slight green hue. Clear.
On The Nose: I had expected the Viognier to dominate the nose with its typical fragrant, floral aromas, but was clearly able to detect the Sauvignon Blanc. The hints of grassiness, grapefruit indicative of an SB are there, just a bit subdued. Interwoven are the viognier aromas; subtle citrus, peach, honey. Gewurztraminer is also a varietal know for its floral elements; I have to confess I don't drink Gewurtz as much as I'd like, as I only care for dry Gewurtz, and little is made here in North Sonoma.
In The Mouth: Wow – the 3 varietals meld together splendidly. Layers of peach, subtle lime, green apple. Touch of minerality and wet stone mid palette. Great mouthfeel and excellent balance, that ends in a lingering, slightly mouth watering finish, pleasing acidity. This is a quaffable wine suitable both for standalone consumption or paired with food. For the love of Dionysus do NOT overchill this wine and serve it right from the fridge – you mute all these great flavor profiles. Mid 50s please.
One of the best parts of this great blend – is the suggested retail is $10-12. I just ordered a half case to start, this is one of my new summer house whites.
In a few weeks you can purchase this on a new Long Gamma website, until then you can do so via contacting Reynoso, or as of now at Andy's Market in Sebastopol, BoardWalk Market in Tiburon, Wilibees Wines in Petaluma, and Farmstead Cheese and Wine in Alameda and Montclair.
Wine Review – Novy 2008 Viognier, Russian River Valley
The Viogner Varietal
Yes, I am drinking a Rhone white varietal – if you read regularly this shouldn't be a surprise, I regularly refer to the Rhone white wines as 'the white wine varietal for red drinkers.' Viognier holds a special place in my heart, as it was one of the first white wines, that weaned me off of exclusively drinking reds, some years ago.
Viognier came into vogue as a single white varietal in the last decade in the U.S. Its been planted as a blending grape, both for white and red wines, for generations. It is now widely planted all over the world, extending from Australia (where it's commonly blended with syrah/shiraz), Chile and Argentina. It's widely planted around the U.S. in CA, OR, and WA.
Viognier is especially known for its aromatics; it is a very floral varietal. Typical drunk young, winemakers can use a variety of techniques in production, ranging from stainless to neutral oak (new oak isn't recommended,)) longer lees (grape residue) contact, and with or without Malolactic (ML) fermentation. Each of these can impart a difference in mouthfeel, body, structure.
Novy Family Winery
I have written before about Novy, in my review of Siduri. Novy wines are made at Siduri, and is the label used for all their non Pinot Noir wines.
Their 2008 Viognier is a small production, only 63 cases made.
Color: light-medium straw color, clear
Aroma: fragrant as befits the varietal. Pear, Notes of citrus, pineapple.
In the Mouth: Aged in Stainless only, with excellent balance, and a mouth watering acidity at finish.
Pear, pineapple, green apple, with a lingering taste of peach at finish.
I tasted this wine both chilled, and then at room temperature, and it shows its flavor and aroma characteristics much better a bit warmer….As I have written repeatedly, this is a critical factor in enjoying a well made, full bodied white wine.
This is a solid expression of Viognier, and one I recommend, at a reasonable $20 retail. Its sold at at the winery, but still available at several distributors; locals can also try Bottle Barn in Santa Rosa, where I have seen Siduri and Novy before.
Wine Review – Penner-Ash Viognier
One of these days I will get around to writing the article thats been in my head for ages "White wines for Red wine drinkers" – but not today.
I discovered Viognier some years ago, reading an article about it as a suggested white wine varietal (grape type) that red wine drinkers might enjoy. Rarely bottled in the US back then as a varietal, it was produced mostly for blending. As this white Rhone (region of France) varietal has gained in popularity, it has gone through the price increase, quality decrease cycle I have witnessed other wine varietals experience. Wineries try and chase 'trends' – a risky venture in an industry where its 3-4 years before new vines are viable and another 12+ months before you can sell your first bottling. I don't encourage it.
The mini Viognier craze seems to have ebbed a bit, leaving better quality on the market, and on the plus side, a broader consumer appreciation for this varietal. Viognier is a wine I love to share with the uninitiated, especially when I find one that hasn't been over tampered with, as we like to do in CA sometimes.
Since I am in my part time home in my flat outside Portland, tonight's Viognier is from Penner-Ash, a 10,000/case year winery in Newberg, OR, part of the Willamette Valley. The fruit was sourced from the Rogue Valley, A Southern Oregon AVA.
The Viognier retails for ~$28 – I purchased my bottle at local grocery store. It comes in a screw top, which doesn't surprise me – Oregon is very focused on green measures, and this winery touts it's energy saving focus.
Viognier is a fragrant varietal, one of the reasons why it is desirable as a blending grape.
Color: A very pale yellow, with excellent clarity
Aroma: Fragrant, as a Viognier should be. Peach and citrus on the nose. A hint of green apple, spice.
In the Mouth: Viognier characteristically has good body and mouth feel. This doesn't disappoint. Melon, tropical fruit, good mid palette, a touch of sweetness, pear. A barely detectable bit of heat (alcohol) on finish.
An excellent expression of Viognier. This is very drinkable by itself, would pair well with many cheeses and a variety of foods.
For my fellow local Sonoma County friends, I had a great viognier this weekend I didn't review, is the 2008 Copain Viognier Tous Ensemble, under $25.
PLEASE remember to not drink good white wines over chilled – all nuances of aroma and flavor profiles are masked. In the event you don't have a cellar, and its been in the fridge, take out at least 15+ mins before drinking,. 58-64 degrees is optimal, and most fridges are generally in the 40s.
Fun times at Holiday in Carneros
The weekend of Nov. 21-22 was the Holiday in Carneros event, with over 20 wineries participating. The event is sponsored by Hospitality de Los Carneros ("HDLC"), which is a collective of Napa and Sonoma wineries located within the Carneros Appellation.
I don't make it down to 'the Valley' – a/k/a Sonoma Valley, as much as I'd like to, so I was glad that this weekend didn't have a lot of events to compete with Holiday in Carneros. I had previously stumbled upon the similar "April in Carneros" event last year, and had a good time, so I was really looking forward to going back.
Taking my own advice from my post on the Wine Road Wine and Food Affair, I took the time to do some planning. The HDLC website helped by providing a well marked map, and a handy list of who was offering what. I was a bit surprised to see some number of Carneros wineries did not participate, especially the many of the 'tin warehouse' wineries on 8th Street. (Lets see some Appellation Solidarity.) But, there were more than enough wineries to visit for the day. Printing out the Map and the Event details, I laid out a plan that took me to mostly wineries I had not visited before, and had varietals, and descriptions that interested me.
Having just returned back home after being in Portland all week (again), I decided to rest up on Saturday, and make a full day of it on Sunday. This turned out to be prudent, as several wineries reported that the crowds were lighter on Sunday, which allowed more quality time to interact with winemakers. I also followed my own advise about carrying a spit cup, and brought my own. For the most part, toting around a spit cup not only helped my tasting, but it also occasionally impacted what I was served. At one winery, a less experienced pourer gave me a funny look, in others I was offered tastes of wines not on the "menu."
After a good start of a mimosa and pumpkin Belgian waffles, I made the trek down to the Valley. My check-in point was at Roshambo, which I chose simply because it was close to Gloria Ferrer. (Gloria Ferrer did not participate in Holiday in Carneros, but I had a wine club pickup there.) I hadn't had Roshambo wines in a few years (in fact, they were still in Dry Creek Valley last visit), so I figured it was about time. Plus, I had driven by Cornerstone Place many times, and never stopped in. Glad I did, as I had a nice visit with Steve Morvai, the G.M. who has been with them quite awhile. Steve was pouring a Sauvignon Blanc, their 'Justice' Syrah, the 'Rock' blend of Syrah, Zinfandel and Petite Syrah, and a Grenache. I liked them all, but the Grenache really caught my attention, as less common varietals often do. There was a huge case sale on it, so guess what I walked out with.
Cornerstone looked like a cool place, but my mission to hit 8 wineries in 4.5 hours didn't leave me a ton of time. I did stop to scarf down 2 pieces of pizza from Kashaya's Pizza – straight from their cool brick oven on wheels. Pizza was being served complimentary as part of the event for the 3 wineries pouring there. Santa Rosa based, I'd recommend Kashaya to any winery wanting food for an event.
For those of you that think Social Media doesn't draw traffic, think again. I didn't really know Anaba, and it wasn't on my initial list. However that morning, I Tweeted about the wineries where I WAS planning to stop, and got a note back from Anaba with a sad face and "No Anaba?" As a result of Anaba noticing, and replying to my tweet, I began to read up on it. Learning that Anaba was a "new winery" with"Rhone and Burgundian style wines," I appended my itinerary. I was glad I did. The facility is comfortable and non-pretentious. Everyone was friendly. And GREAT Rhone whites.
Side note for you red wine only drinkers –I was one of you once — branch out! Especially try some of the more full-bodied Rhone whites like Viognier, Roussanne, and Marsanne. I observed a lot of people skipping the whites, and remembered doing the same thing myself once, but I was glad I didn't skip these. 'Coriol' is a blend of the above 3, plus Grenache Blanc, with a wonderful, floral nose, and a good mouthfeel. Their Viognier was even better, and I bought a bottle. I also enjoyed their Sonoma Coast Pinot, and Coriol red, a Rhone blend of Grenache, Mourvedre, Syrah, Counoise, and Petire Sirah. (The latter being an 'adopted' Rhone varietal.) If you like desert wines, Anaba also makes a late harvest Viognier, and red and white ports.
The tasting room staff was young, but very attentive and knowledgeable. I'd have liked to learn a bit more about the genesis of the winery, and the owners/family were supposedly lurking in the back. They should take a lesson from the Ceja's and work the visitors; stories sell wine!
Ty Caton, Parmalee Hill – Eighth Street Wineries
Next, I h eaded over to Eighth Street, where 3 more wineries were pouring. I have had Ty's wine's before from my club at Cellars of Sonoma, and I am a fan of their Malbec. Nice people and good wines, but between the country music and the slightly hard sell on sale priced wines, I didn't linger.
Had visited Tin Barn before, so I skipped it and dropped in on Parmalee-Hill. After wine geeking over all the cool production equipment, I also enjoyed their wines, especially their Grenache Blanc and Marsanne/Roussanne blend I found white Rhone varietals at several Carneros spots and I wondered: why don't we have more of these in northern Sonoma County?
Would have liked to stop at Three Sticks and MacRostie, but they were not officially participating, so I kept rolling.
Robert Stemmler Winery
Next stop was down Ramal Road at Robert Stemmler Winery. The drive down a remote winding road, made me feel like I was driving around my beloved Russian River. From best I can tell, the winery isn't normally open for tasting, but has a good following based on the crowd. This is a Burgundian style producer, that day pouring a Carneros chardonnay, and Carneros and Russian River Pinot Noir. There was only one small table for pouring, so space was a bit tight. I really liked their wines, and thought their Carneros Pinot was the best of the appellation I tasted that day.
Unfortunately between the crowds, and a rather obnoxious 'taster' who fired off 100 questions, trying to present she knew a lot about wine, stymied me from detailed chat. (The barrage annoyed me enough to wander off and pet the local horses – the lady gave away what I suspected – she knew nothing about wines except buzz words, when she starting asking, going over the entire wine list "is this wine racked? and this one? and this one?" 'Racking" is the process of transferring wine from one container to another to get it off sediment, and improve clarity. ALL wines are RACKED; granted Pinot is sometimes less so, but it is. Next time ask if grapes need sun, too. Snarky mode off.) I came back to buy a few bottles after she left, but large crowd came in, so I decided to move on. Will come back in April.
I have had Etude Pinot a few times, and they have a big following, so decided to make my first visit. Service was friendly, though 3/4 of the pouring staff knew very little about wine. It was also odd to me that a winery known for Pinot was pouring only one, but that is perhaps related to their high price and very low yield vines. One thing that did catch my attention – they have migrated their Chardonnay to the new glass stopper tops I have been hearing about. FAR more elegant than a screw cap, and seals nicely. Consider me a big fan, I'd love to see more wineries use this style closure.
Ceja Vineyards
I thought it best to end the day on a safe note, removing the element of surprise with a winery I know delivers – Ceja. I could write (and should) an article just on Ceja, although they hardly need my help. This family of Latino growers, turned Winemaker, 'gets it.' They provide an amazing customer experience, work to make wine simple and enjoyable, paired with food, reasonable price points, invest in marketing, and have embraced multiple avenues of customer touch points and Social Media, from blogging to Twitter, Facebook and more. Multiple generations of the family take on roles, and at their beautiful facility (not the downtown tasting room) you can't go 10 feet without a Ceja warmly engaging you. As always, the experience included good food, live music, and great wine, comfortably staged around the property. I like all of their wines, but I am fond of their Vino de Casa, Red Blend, an unsual blend of Pinot Noir, Syrah, and Cabernet, priced at a very affordable $20.
A great ending to a great day in Carneros.
I look forward to the April event, cheers!
(ps, this Friday and Saturday is ANOTHER passport event in Sonoma Valley – come back for my Thursday post for more details!)
