Don't Call it Petite

This could be the new gateway-wine to the un-initiated on *weird varieties* (or “weird varietals” as they would say). Gone is the shear wall of structural blackness and obfuscation often seen, and in its place a sweetish, fruit-FWD drop unassuming on first sight, but packed with all the goodness of PV. Impenetrable black ruby in the glass with blue edges, ridiculously staining, a nose of dusty…

Dusty’s letters

Emergency letter

Dear nabor neighbor, this is an imirgensy emergency letter!

Do not tell my brother were where I’m hiding if you see me!

He fond found the letter I sent to you. I don’t know how, I promise I hid it very well and he never saw me put it in your mailbox.

I’m scarred scared because he sounds very very angry, and it’s getting dark, my knee hurts very very much because I fell wile runing while running.

I’m scared of the dark and I’ve never been outside at night. But I don’t want him to find me, I don’t know what will happen if he finds me, but I know I’ll cry a lot.

He is SO scary, I wish he wasn’t scary.

Please let me in if you see me, I’m don’t want to be alone :’(

“L.A. Supports Wine Country Event” - November 12th, 2017

LOS ANGELES; (October 31, 2017) – Mother Nature traveled through the North Coast region of California this past month with tragically historic record setting wildfires exaggerated by 70 mile-an-hour winds. Over 8,000 structures have been damaged in the spreading fires and thousands of lives have been changed forever. The wine industry, meaning the people that live, work, and farm in the regions are the most important casualty in this natural disaster. It will take a great deal of time and energy to build back what used to be. Donations are going to be needed in every way to help those in need. To help bring these California communities closer to their fundraising goals, wineLA is putting together a benefit for Wildfire Relief supporting Habitat for Humanity  - going to those that need it most in Wine Country. It is time to come together and donate to our California family in the north.

The wineLA team is working to put together an event on November 12, 2017, which will be open to anyone to come out to help support our efforts. We are looking for volunteers to help bring this event to life so we can reach our goal and grow the fund north of 1 million dollars.  

ABOUT REBUILDING WINE COUNTRY:  HABITAT FOR HUMANITY SONOMA: Rebuild Wine Country is for long-term giving. Immediate needs are being met by fantastic community non-profit partners already. This fund is about the bigger picture in the weeks, months, and years to come, protecting economic recovery for those without a roof over their head. With these funds, our fiscal sponsor Habitat for Humanity of Sonoma County will distribute aid to sister chapters in all affected counties to repair and rebuild homes for those who need it most.

Donations:

Benefits affected families in Wine Country as a whole, by rebuilding homes

Goes 100% to the charity - no fees are imposed by YouCaring (vs 5% or more on GoFundMe)

Is tax deductible - Habitat for Humanity of Sonoma County is our 501(c)(3) fiscal sponsor

Has no administrative costs - all management of this fundraiser is executed by wine industry professionals

ABOUT THE EVENT:  www.LAsupportsWineCountry.com Sunday, November 12th at The MacArthur (formerly the Park Plaza)  we are looking for entertainers to anchor the festivities, wineries to pour, restaurants to serve, and auction items galore!  3 stages - 4 ballroom spaces full of activities; from costumed performers walking the aisles, to notable artworks from formidable artists and silent auction items a plenty!  Come and do some holiday shopping and give 100% of the proceeds to charity!  Donate if you're too busy, or better yet - sign up your employer as a sponsor and give your entire staff a ticket to join the event.

Click here for tickets or to make donations: www.LAsupportsWineCountry.com

TICKETS ARE NOW AVAILABLE www.LAsupportsWineCountry.com

ABOUT WINELA

wineLA is about enhancing the wine culture of Los Angeles one event at a time. To do so, wine must be in rhythm with fashion, music, food and other beverages.  It must take advantage of the geography, the architecture and the centers of interest. Los Angeles is a giant playground with an amazing array of venues, spaces, wine bars, restaurants, beaches, roof tops, gardens, and magical views. We want to be a part of the LA lifestyle, the wine lifestyle, and celebrate the people, the place and the passion.  

In 2005 - founder Ian Blackburn hosted www.LAsupportsLA.com - an event to support victims of Katrina.  Over 2500 guests - world famous entertainers - and hundreds of thousands of dollars were raised and donated to two charity entities.  The event was seamless - and appeared to take months to prepare… but we accomplished the event in just 8 days… and hundreds of talented and loving individuals came together to make one of the most legendary events of all time take place.  This time - we do it for Northern California and the industry we love and depend upon.

[wine-porn]

Dust it Off

Deep, dark, cherry-ridden elixir with a predictable grimy nose peeling off gobs of mineral and deep cassis. Berry and bluster abound: a textbook Happy Canyon cab. I chose not to decant, as this wine is ripe and round, not showing too many things decanting will elevate. Age, perhaps, but more air: no. Lovely vegetal ire introduces the taste, all polished down on rather user-friendly distiction…

[wine-porn]

Ballard Perfection

Extravagantly deep and brooding, but with that spritely charge of bright fruit the variety demands. A nose headily perfumed with briary root, oak and molasses, clean and transparent throughout. So sullen, so delicious, so balancing depth with vivaciousness. Kimsey makes a beautiful Syrah, and Dusty nailed it here in a low-alcohol wonder packed with brilliant berry and easy structure. 2021 DUSTY…

[wine-porn]

SRH

I don’t drink a lot of luxury Pinots. Anyone who has ever drank wine with me knows I steer clear of the *reserve* bottlings–often skipping them completely in a tasting. I’ve found–as a lot of you understand–the sumptuous reserve bottles often carry with them factors I find demeaning to the grape’s expression. I find the *plain* far more to my liking, with their typically lower alcohol, extraction…

[wine-porn]

Infantile El Pomar

This is some fruity shizzzz: oh man it hits instantly and fresh, almost to barrel-sample or press-wine levels: so thin and muscular the fruitiness is. Plum and apple in the nose, burnt down on lively young smokiness all energetic and ALIVE. At first, you’re almost turned away by it, feeling it might be all super-market in perhaps unimaginative fuzzy lushness. But it goes a different directin with…

[wine-porn]

Radiating

An odd Pinot: NOT of a style usually seen in California. The 99% is going to HATE this wine, as it delivers NONE of the Merlot-chubby grandiosity the big names deliver to their sugar-addled fans. Easy graphite and thin acidity in the nose, bulked up by copious fruit (that part is California), but consistently rather closed-in and demure. A wet-wood sort of shadow cast on slightly smoky,…

[wine-porn]

All Hail Grenache

Grenache is such an under-appreciated grape with the masses. Screw all the chubby GSM’s in the Red Blend section–those are often the only experience the 99 have with Grenache and most of them are void of character. And if ever there was an argument for *Grenache delivers what Pinot promises* this bottle is point and mark. Supple, velvety and luscious, a nose both dirty, funky and polished,…

[wine-porn]

Sparkling Provence

Nary a rosé tint to it, just a breath of rosiness inside deep straw. This is a calm, even pet-nat, not plagued by explosive frizze or harsh spritz: a muted *phitzz* on opening and fine layer of foam upon pour. Bubbles continue meadering their way from the bottom long into the glass–a significance much more akin to fine sparkling wine than typically seen from pet-nat. The nose is dusty and thick,…

[wine-porn]

Spruce Bruce

Gloriously bitter, tangy and writhing in spirit, this is an example of the grape which makes me–again–wonder about two kinds of people: People who prefer pudding Chardonnays day after day, reaching for the same tired, over-wrought examples over and over; And those who say Chardonnay is boring and refuse to drink it. My guess is the latters are all formerly formers, or perhaps those in the latter…
