We are now seeing the first signs of the 2008 vintage –
Bud Break! Those first green leaves are sprouting on the
pruned vines, as vineyard crews continue preparing for
the growing season. The hills and valleys are lush with
green cover crops and wildflowers and excitement is in
the air!

In the cellar, winemakers are tasting through the barrels
of the 2007 vintage, and first indications are that it is a
stellar year. The first whites and pinks of 2007 are being
bottled, and everyone is looking forward to sharing them
at the Vintners’ Festival on April 19th!

Weather

At this time of year, we look for “winter weather” here in wine country. This hopefully means some rain to replenish the
soils and cold enough temperatures to keep the vines dormant until March or April. Days are generally cool, in the high 50’s
– 60’s. We have more “weather” this time of year than others, so bring raingear just in case and dress in layers as
temperatures can change throughout the day. It’s a nice time to visit – the stark contrast of the dormant vines against
wintery skies is striking, and crowds are much thinner than in the summer months! ...

The idea that wine and cheese are perfect companions is, I'm
afraid, one of the great myths, perpetuated perhaps by two
most feted and triumphant partnership-port and Stilton and
Roquefort and Sauternes. Generally speaking, cheese is one of
the trickiest foods to choose wine for. But is it any wonder?

Cheese is frequently strong and pungently flavoured; it is often
high in fat; it may be high in acid, it is often very salty; and it
can have a gluey, mouth-coating texture. Some cheese even
manage to combine all these wine -and tastebud-challenging
features- and the whole subject is made more complicated by
the fact that cheese vary as much from producer to producer
and according to maturity as do wines.

For all the new influences in New York, the west coats, too,
has seen an enormous change in its cooking in the last 15 or so
years -and all because of the wine. California cuisine based on a
super-abundance and variety of local fresh produce of all kinds,
is made to partner the wines - the Chardonnays and Cabernets,
the Merlots, Zinfandels and Pinot Noirs, the Sauvignons, the
Rhône-style wines and Italian blends. There is even a phrase for
it: "cooking to the wine". California cooking continues to
evolve and innovate, but the principle is constant to obtain
maximum flavour without being heavy-handed. While rest of
America can still treat garlic with reserve, here it is nothing to
find six cloves in a recipe, along with chilli peppers, olive oil,  
Cheese & Wine
and a mountain of sage leaves and Italian parsley. Mashed potatoes may given zip with mustard; steak doused with
mustard, garlic, ginger and soy. A growing preference for vegetarian foods and a modern tendency for people to graze
during the day rather than sit down to cooked meals, both favor cheese. Nothing could be easier, tastier, or more
nourishing than a light meal of a few good pieces of cheese, with bread, salad, fresh fruit and a great glass of wine on
the side.
No doubt we shall continue to see cheeses being
offered at end of a formal lunch or dinner. However,
more and more people accept that unless we plan our
menus in order to leave room for cheese, only the
heartiest of appetites can do them justice.

It is at the specialty cheese shop - in a small town or a
large city - where the best cheeses can be bought. Just
like people with passion for good wines, lovers of
cheese have became both better informed and more
demanding in their choice. What they are looking for is
character and flavor, the attributes given to cheese by
the care and attention of the artisan cheesemaker
using traditional techniques rather than by the
technician applying science in a factory.
The traditional cheesemaker is backed up by the careful husbandry of the farmer producing the finest milk. However, it
is not only the traditional cheeses that are proving so popular. New cheeses, too, are being developed and made by
hand, in limited numbers, on small farms in many areas of France.

The restaurant earned two stars in the first-ever LA Michelin Guide,
congratulations from Cheflaszlo!

Mélisse is truly exceptional with an extensive wine list. Josiah Citrin is an
imaginative chef with impeccable execution and reputation, a rare
professional who is also teaching student chefs in his kitchen! I visited
Josiah on Friday night for an exclusive interview that I'm putting together
for
Eszencia, (voted best wine magazine in Hungary), and for Hejszakacsok.hu,
a website with many student readers. But before we got started, he fed me
at the bar with an incredible five course dinner. The food is outstanding. It
was as if I dined at a fine Michelin-rated restaurant in Europe!

When I finished eating, he came and he explained every course I ate.  He
took me to the kitchen for a tour and I ended up staying with him for over
three hours, and was able to shadow him and take pictures as well as take
notes. It was an amazing experience. I really saw what his kitchen can do,
and I will never forget how kind and ......

Dear Friend, here is how you can help

This video from The Humane Society of the U.S. is the one that led to the
largest beef recall in history.

It's really hard to watch. But I encourage you to try, and then take action online
by asking the USDA to clean up cruel slaughterhouses by banning "downers," or
animals who can't walk, from the food supply.

The current lax enforcement and loophole-ridden government policy allow
hideous abuses to occur, causing excessive suffering and endangering our food
supply. Please join me in asking the USDA to crack down on downers.

It will only take a minute.

See
video from the undercover investigation, and take action to stop this
cruelty. WARNING: Very graphic images of cruelty.
