When it comes to vintages, vintners usually love the one they're with.
"It's the best wine I've ever made," a winemaker told me yesterday, while pouring his 2008 Cabernets. A year ago, 2007 was his best, and before that, 2006.
It stands to reason that with any new vintage, say 2010, for example, a winemaker has spent a year grooming his vines for harvest. And then when the grapes are picked and crushed, particularly if it's under adverse conditions, it's no wonder most marvel at what they've accomplished.
It's no different, really, than when new parents set their eyes on a newborn. For a long time, when moms and dads peek into the crib to see their infant, well, they have to pinch themselves. They can hardly believe that this miracle happened. (If you think I'm kidding, don't forget how many vintners refer to their wines as their children, irrespective of the number or their age.)
Just before a harvest, though, many winemakers bottle an earlier vintage, let's say 2008, for reds. Often for days and weeks they taste the wines over and over again, and they become intimately familiar with the wine's traits.
The same is true right after bottling those 2008s or before the wines are shipped to market or shown to customers. Once a winemaker believes his wine is good to go, he will have tried it on numerous occasions, and under varying circumstances.
Of course, vintners have the most on the line with the wine they are selling, or still have to sell. So right now you'll hear vintners saying their 2007, or 2008, or perhaps 2009, is the best wine they've made—depending on which vintage is for sale. It's only later, when the "kids" are up to teenage highjinks that vintners might allow this year or that had been difficult from early adolescence on.
This summer, as I finalized our coverage of the 2007 Cabernet vintage, and I interviewed winemakers about recent years, I received a mixed, or staggered, response. Many admitted 2007 was a great year for Cabernet (and just about any other wine in California). But some, who had long since sold out of '07, said that clearly, their 2008s were superior, this coming at a time when they had either just bottled the wines or were getting ready to.
As an aside, I've noticed too that once a vintage, say 2007, is sold out, winemakers rarely pay as much attention to it (i.e. drinking it); they have younger wines to taste and sell.
A few others said 2009 would be the best. I expect that many winemakers can improve the quality of their wines each year, provided the harvest isn't a nightmare.
The just-finished 2010 vintage in California should be mixed, as it was one of the most trying years in memory, particularly for late-ripening reds. Most red wines are being pressed and fermented, and it's one stage where a winemaker can begin to assess quality.
Amid the talk about 2010, there are those who say the wines will be lower in alcohol because of the cool growing season; a few have told me the 2010 Cabernets will be "blockbusters." Most, though, are clearly happy with what they have; most winemakers aiming for great wines only pick the grapes they think they can turn into beauties. So they're tasting the cream of the crop.
I'm starting to hear more enthusiastic endorsements from vintners about 2010, and I'm thrilled. They've just peeked into the crib and are amazed by what they've found.
Mike Officer — Santa Rosa, CA — December 9, 2010 8:11pm ET
I'll run counter to what you're hearing Jim. As a set, our 2010 Zinfandels have the highest alcohols we've experienced. And that's with usually being the first to pick in vineyards we share with other vintners.
As for winemakers loving the one they're with, another reason simply could be experience. (Guess you touched upon this.) There are a lot of young winemakers out there. I've been doing it for 13 years and with each year, I still learn a heck of a lot. Hence, as long as the vintage isn't a complete wipe-out, it's only natural that our wines would improve with each vintage. Basically, I'm on the steep slope portion of an asymptotic learning curve.
But along came 2010... You won't be hearing from me how great it was. Mother Nature hit us with pretty much every punch possible. We'll still make good wines by being highly selective but I'm just happy to have survived it.
Adam Lee — Santa Rosa, CA — December 9, 2010 10:31pm ET
A brand new wine....like the 2010s right now....remind me of a new baby in another way, too, Jim. When a baby is born the doctor takes it away and checks it physically, making sure it can hear, checking his or her joints, etc. The doctor isn't going to tell you if the baby is going to be the bank president or the bank thief, all the doctor is trying to do is to see if anything is wrong with the baby.
At this early stage, all I am tasting for in barrel is to see if there is something wrong with the wine. If not, then fantastic --- we will wait to see if the wine turns out to be good or great --- but at least it isn't flawed. That's what I look for now.

David Dickson — Sacramento, CA — December 10, 2010 1:31am ET
Let me preface this by saying that compared to the weighing in of two vintners, this is merely an opinion and not based in hands on experience. However, I can certainly imagine a couple of reasons for the "love the one you're with' phenomenon.
First, if the vintner doesn't talk up his wines who will. And beyond that, who will buy them? Bordeaux leads the way in proclaiming each and every new vintage to be a wonder. It certainly hasn't hurt their pricing power much.
Beyond that, however, I want to believe that the true winemaker brings a little wonder of his or her own to each new vintage. If we truly believe in terroir and the individuality of each new vintage then the winemaker's true calling is to listen to what each season, each vineyard tells him or her and then find a way to bring out the best of that season. Sort of how a baseball manager takes a bunch of rookies, free agents, and journeymen and creates a World Series winner. It doesn't happen often, but when it does I am sure the sense of satisfaction is wonderful.
Maybe that is a fantasy but it is what keeps me looking forward to each new vintage and looking for those winemakers who at least in my eyes, have that same fantasy. And as each new season rolls around every sports team has aspirations that may or may not play out. I am guessing the same goes for each new vintage as it goes into the barrels.
Hey, and if I am wrong don't spoil the fantasy! I have to have something to cling to. I still can't believe someone ruined Santa Claus for me.
David Rossi — Napa, CA, USA — December 10, 2010 8:12am ET
I try to stay away from the ranking of the vintage when people ask. I usually try to describe the relative weight of the wines(alc %, concentration, oak contribution, etc)rather than a firm "2010 is better than 2009". This usually frustrates consumers and the trade because they usually like to hear "this is the best vintage ever". They also want to feel confident in the purchase. So the purchasers also want to be "marketed to".
I think Mike makes a good point about improving the winemaking in a vintage. Each year we strive to improve the process, decisions and execution in the vineyards and winery. This often makes us think the current vintage is better than the past.
I think this combination of vintner optimism and pride coupled with the desire of everyone to think the current products are the best out there means we will be seeing many more "Best Vintage Ever's"
Mace D Howell Iii — fremont,ca,usa — December 10, 2010 9:56am ET
I believe this issue is simply a matter of taste. The 2007 vintage for Napa Cabernet was marked by a much brighter fruit profile than that of 2005 or 2006. I like a darker fruit profile. The funny thing is I prefer the 2007 vintage in Washington to that of 2005 or 2006. I also believe that 2007 Napa Cabernet is a pinot noire drinker's vintage. I am definitely not qualified to determine the quality of a vintage, but I have done several side by side tastings and almost always come to the same conclusion. During the Wine Experience in Vegas I thought the 2007 Columbia Crest Reserve blew away the 2005 version. I also thought the best cab. I tasted there was Michael Mina's 2007 Quilceda Creek Cab. I also found it strange that of all the 2007 Napa Cabs I tasted, the 2007 Revana had the darkest fruit profile, and it made the top ten. Was this simply because it bucked the 2007 trend?
Lastly, I was just at a tasting of Hourglass and Realm and I asked Juan from Realm about the 2007's and he said he really loves 2005. The same was echoed from Hourglass. I believe it is the darf fruit profile and more minerality. One last note, the 2006 Staglin Cab. was so much better than the 2007 that I could not believe they actually poured them side by side. Everyone there was saying the same thing.
Troy Peterson — Burbank, CA — December 10, 2010 10:20am ET
Fred Schrader and TRB can probably get away with it and be right in the end! To my knowledge, Jamie Kutch is one of the few vintners besides Mike Officer to admit to a difficult year (2008) that produced wines less to his liking than past vintages. And he put it in writing!
Mike Officer — Santa Rosa, CA — December 10, 2010 10:27am ET
To David Dickson, what you say is definitely true for me. I'm addicted to the cycle of growing grapes and making wine. I get such an adrenalin rush at the start of each growing season. The slate has been wiped clean and we have another chance of trying to achieve something special. I love it!
Brian Loring — Lompoc, CA — December 10, 2010 12:44pm ET
Like Mike, I think I'm also on the steep slope portion of an asymptotic learning curve... or possibly climbing a nearly vertical cliff. And I'd like to think that each year we'll continue to improve what we do, and make better wines. Mother Nature doesn't always allow for that (like in 2008), but then hopefully our accumulated experience will allow us to at least make the best wines possible.
But Jim's point is also true, since I do feel as winemakers we often get acclimated to the current vintage. That's why it's important to get critical evaluation along the way. Jim's reviews not only help consumers navigate through all of the different offerings, they help winemakers get an objective look at what they've produced. Of course, we secretly hope that Jim agrees that the current vintage is our best ever :) But either way, the goal is always to learn and do better next year.
James Laube — Napa, CA — December 10, 2010 2:25pm ET
Mace, point well taken (and Mike and Brian and Adam, indeed each year great winemakers improve on past performance). I've long believed that it takes wines a few years to show their true form, that is, in the first months and years they undergo many changes. But usually by age four or five, they become more predictable in how they show. That's but one reason wineries used to age their reds for five years before releasing them. I could easily contradict myself, however, and agree that on any given day any given vintage or producer can put a smile on your face with a surprise performance.
Lorenzo Erlic — victoria canada — December 10, 2010 7:46pm ET
Ever watched "The Omen"? I've been at it with California Zinfandel grapes since 1975 and I'm still beyond excited when crate after crate of them come through me to my crusher. Yet the wines that evolve each time end up different and with age I've come to accept realistically both their strengths and weaknesses. That's how it goes!
Mace D Howell Iii — fremont,ca,usa — December 11, 2010 3:46pm ET
I am curious why a couple of years ago at the Wine Experience that everytime we tried a cab. or bordeaux blend we were in awe at the quality-ex.2005 Les Pavots and Schrader, but this time we struggled to find wines like Revana or 2006 Staglin. Is it because they will show that much better in a year or two? Or do we simply have a difference of opinion? This is very important for myself and others in terms of buying decisions. I would treasure your thoughts.
Jonathan Lawrence — somewhere in the world — December 11, 2010 5:36pm ET
Brian, your secret is safe with me. ... Tchaikovsky considered his symphonies his "children," if I'm not mistaken. History will judge. My six-year-old is finally showing signs of humanity, and I'm prepared to take some credit, but not too much.
Merrill Lindquist — Calistoga, CA — December 12, 2010 3:58pm ET
I'm with Adam in his post above. All I am doing at this point is verifying that the newly barreled 2010 is sound, and having a first look at the barrel to barrel differences in order to make the first round of changes. That's it - no promises, no guesses as to where it will stack up among my various vintages. WAY too early to tell.
I do think, Jim, you are being a bit simplistic in your assertions about "vintners love the one they are with." Maybe that's just what they say to you, or perhaps what you are selectively hearing. When asked about my favorite vintages of my own wine, I'm very candid with the person or small group I'm discussing and tasting with. I think there might be a world of difference between what one wants published in your blog, and what a vintner might say during a meaningful exchange that is not published out to the world. When I say what my favorites are, it is often accompanied by reasons and qualifiers why it is so.
I guess I'm just tired of the press/consumer blog jokes about how each vintage is someone's vintage of the century.
John Jorgenson — Seattle, — December 13, 2010 8:04pm ET
If I am making enchiladas and Mother Nature hands me nutmeg, I wouldn't hesitate to blame her for the shortcomings of the finished product. When she tosses me the metaphorical equivalent in the form of a child I would love the child as though there were no flaw. It may even be that at some point in time I feel that this child was my best ever, certainly in terms of the lessons the child had taught me. But wine is not a child and neither are symphonies, but they are works of art.
Philip A Chauche — Germantown, MD — December 14, 2010 12:26pm ET
Thanks all for a very interesting and informative blog. I especially appreciate the comments from the vinters.
I am no expert, but it seems to me that in every vintage, the quality of the fruit puts a ceiling on the quality of the wine, and the winemaker brings up the floor.
In bringing up the floor, the winemaker can choose to emphasize microclimate or the terriore to make a truly distinctive wine, whether in a great vintage or a challenging one.
Even in the challenging years, the winemaker can sort out only the choicest fruit to make something special.
At the end, it might be more helpful to consumers to know the depth of breadth of a particular harvest, and they can adjust their buying patterns accordingly.
Nile Zacherle — Calistoga CA — December 15, 2010 6:44pm ET
I would definitely agree with the comments of Brian and Mike. I would add that each vintage we work with offers large and small variables that tend to teach us something new about the site we are working with and typically offers a vintage character. They may not be as pronounced as our Old World friends although then do give us differences. I think that's why we get so excited about the next season coming up and maybe the one we are selling as well. We should be, as winegrowers, always striving to improve our vintage success regardless of Mother Nature's whims, of course sometimes you can only do so much. I would also add that 2010 was a challenging year and I am very positive with my first impressions although nothing a little 'elevage' to see how these kids behave.

Pittsburgh theater fires founder, but show goes on
PITTSBURGH (AP) - The Pittsburgh Irish & Classical Theatre has fired its founder and artistic director.
Andrew Paul founded the nonprofit theater company 17 years ago. He says the board of directors fired him Tuesday without warning.
For the last two years Paul has split his time between Pittsburgh and Las Vegas, after his wife got a job there.
Board chairman Eugene O'Sullivan says the theater decided it needed to have a full-time artistic director in Pittsburgh.
Paul says he prides himself on a passionate and "very high-risk vision" that has drawn critical acclaim.
O'Sullivan says Paul was a terrific leader but the season's shows will go on. The first play, "Our Class," is scheduled to open April 10.
Actor-director Alan Stanford has been named interim leader of the company.

12:37 AM ET 03.18 | Injured Lakers power forward Pau Gasol is still unsure when he will make his return to the court, as he has been feeling some extra pain in his right foot after ramping up the intensity in his rehab. However, Gasol said that the additional pain is not a setback, explaining what foot specialist Dr. Kenneth Jung told him during a recent visit. "He said it's to be expected as you raise the intensity, the amount you're putting on the foot is going to create a little soreness," said Gasol. "It's a pretty normal reaction from the injury that I had." Gasol tore the plantar fascia in his right foot on Feb. 5. The Lakers estimated that it would take Gasol six-to-eight weeks to return to the court, and he's currently at about six weeks. If Gasol does not play on Monday against the Suns, his next chance to return would be Friday against the Wizards.

Historical Fiction
November 2012

About the Book:
from Amazon.com:
For Joan of Arc, it was about surviving in a man's world. Nearly six hundred years later, at West Point, not much has changed. One of the greatest heroines of all time returns and reveals the wisdom she received from Archangel Michael. When you dare to commit to your deepest desires, your heart grows to accommodate the task at hand, no matter how daunting", Archangel Michael advises Joan of Arc before she embarks on a mission that will change the course of history. With only eleven days left to live, she must take yet another leap of faith, surrender to the guidance of Archangel Michael, and set the record straight to ensure those in the future know the truth. Her legacy reaches across the veil of time to awaken the heroine in all women. And for one twenty-first-century woman, Jane Archer, a West Point cadet, it means finding the courage to expose a cultural crime that has been disempowering women for centuries. In the process, she must learn to trust her own inner guidance.
My Review:
At first I was a little thrown by the back and forth of Return of the Heroine. The chapters alternate between 15th century France, where the story is narrated by Joan of Arc, and 1990s United States, where the story is told in the third person. For the first few chapters this alternating structure made it a little difficult to get into the story.
After a few chapters, though, I adjusted and found the story to be captivating. I knew the basic story of Joan of Arc, but this book made it come to life. I experienced every victory and every defeat right along with Joan, including the feel of the flames licking her feet at the end.(if you didn't know Joan was burned at the stake I apologize for the spoiler
The parallel story, of Jane Archer, the West Point cadet, while not quite as compelling, is still a strong dramatic tale. Jane is dealing with the culture of rape and abuse against women at the illustrious military college. I was surprised by the anecdotal statistic in the book, so I did a little research.
According to the Huffington Post:
The Pentagon said it received 2,923 reports of sexual assault across the military in the 12 months ending Sept. 30 2008. That's about a 9 percent increase over the totals reported the year before, but only a fraction of the crimes presumably being committed.
Among the cases reported, only a small number went to military courts, officials acknowledged.
The Pentagon office that collects the data estimates that only 10 percent to 20 percent of sexual assaults among members of the active duty military are reported _ a figure similar to estimates of reported cases in the civilian sphere.
So even though Return of the Heroine is set in the 90s, apparently this is a subject we need to continue talking about until it is taken seriously.
Again I seem to have stumbled upon a book with strong female characters, but for this I am grateful. Jane is an independent woman who has a loving and equal relationship with her boyfriend, Jack. They respect each other's strengths and weaknesses and learn not to judge each other by a stereotype.
One of the biggest themes in this book was to listen to the "voices" in your head and not to let fear rule you. As my regular readers know, overcoming my fears has been a recurring theme on this blog (The Year of No Fear, No Punishment; No Fear, My One Word for 2013: Courage). Here are some quotes from the book that really struck home with me:
If you walk a path you know in your heart to be true and you encounter fear, it is showing you that your mind has not yet grown to accommodate your heart.
"Scar tissue is stronger than skin," the doctor said…
…To her it seemed metaphorically true. When shit happens, we get stronger.
Fear will cause you to make choices that may not be in your best interest. Fear causes you to doubt and lose faith.
Return of the Heroine is a powerful read for fans of historical fiction and/or tales of strong women. I give it four stars!!
I received a complimentary copy of this book for the purpose of review. All opinions are 100% my own.

The fate of Superintendent Richard Tauer, placed on paid administrative leave earlier this month, comes before the Westminster School District Board of Trustees when it meets tonight (Thursday).
Tauer has been superintendent since July 1, 2010 after serving as assistant superintendent for human resources. He was hired under a three-year contract but a divided WSD board put him on leave at a special meeting earlier this month.
The agenda for tonight's meeting includes a closed session set to begin at 6 p.m. in the district offices, located at 14121 Cedarwood Ave., Westminster. Listed items in the closed session include "superintendent evaluation" as well as "public employee/discipline/dismissal/release."
At recent meetings, Tauer and some board members have clashed over reinstatement of certain administrative posts the superintendent felt were important to the operation of the district. Some trustees were concerned about the cost of those employees.
Also on the agenda are four items related to charter school facilities, authorization, oversight and renewal in the WSD. The regular session is scheduled to start at 7 p.m.
The WSD is a K-8 district serving most of Westminster as well as Midway City and parts of Garden Grove and Fountain Valley. The next meeting of the WSD board is set for Aug. 8.

With most things, I tend to go for the cheapest option, but I do love my tea, and having given up smoking years ago when pregnant with my oldest son, tea and books are my only real guilty pleasures for myself. I drink a lot of tea, and I do believe a steel kettle makes a nicer cuppa than a plastic one as plastic does leave some smell and taste, where metal does not- or if it does I can not detect it. When my last kettle died, I immediately turned to dooyoo for guidance in finding another. Sadly, I couldn't find a review for this one, but Nar2 did have a review for an earlier Breville kettle , which he was very happy with. For those of you who may be new to ... Read the complete review

Atlanta's Sean P, formerly of The Youngbloodz, is looking to help out his fellow citizens with their heating and energy bills this winter. The rapper has made a $5,000 donation to H.E.A.T. (Heating Energy Assistance Team), a non-profit organization that helps low income families, disabled persons and senior citizens in Georgia with their energy bills. "I could hardly believe that people in my own community had to make decisions about whether to buy food and medicine or pay their energy bills," Sean P. said in a statement. Additionally, Sean P will be teaming with H.E.A.T. for a campaign to encourage other entertainers from the state to join in the cause. In 2005, H.E.A.T. disbursed $1 million in energy assistance to nearly 4,600 households in Georgia. For more information on H.E.A.T., go to http://www.heatga.org/.

Bussing From Buenos Aries to Lima
Hi, I'm am currently touring South America by bus and I know my trip will take me to Buenos Aries. Flying our of BA is super expensive so I was thinking I would bus back up to Lima where it would be a lot cheaper to fly out of. I was wondering if anyone knew any good routes to take to get there. What is the average cost going to be and how long does it usually take? Thanks.1
http://www.omnilineas.com/argentina/bus/retiro/lima-peru/there are even direct buses, although 67 hours in a semi-cama bus..probably not the most pleasant experience
with stops and a little spare time: probably go BsAs - Salta (20 hours) and then either via San Pedro de Atacama (+12 hours or so) - Calama (+3) - Arica (+7) - Lima (+ ~ 1day) or via Bolivia.(takes much longer, but more beautiful)
But be aware that it might not be cheaper - the BsAs - Salta part is going to cost ~130 US-$.
Flying our of BA is super expensive so I was thinking I would bus back up to Lima where it would be a lot cheaper to fly out of.Where are you flying to?
When are you flying (exact dates)?
How much does it cost if you fly out of Lima?
How much would it cost if you fly out of Buenos Aires?
