Goosecross: What's the Best Wine to Serve on Thanksgiving?
2009 Honig Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc
2009 Honig Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc
The Sauvignon blanc is processed using two different methods. To preserve the delicate
tropical fruit flavors, a portion of the fruit goes directly into the press as whole
clusters. The remaining fruit is de-stemmed and left in contact with the skins for several
hours before pressing, enhancing the grapefruit/citrus components. All of the juice is
fermented cold (55 degrees F) in stainless steel tanks. Perfectly balanced grapefruit and
melon aromas and flavors are accented by lime and mango. A round mid-palate is followed
by a vibrant, crisp, lingering finish.

2006 Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Artemis Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
90 points Wine Enthusiast: "Made almost exclusively from Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a
deeply colored, reipely rich young wine that shows masses of blackberries. There are
supporting notes of paine grille, anise, violets, anise and smoky oak, with a firm grounding
of minerals. Shows some tartness and astringency that strongly suggest time in the cellar.
Try beyond 2012." (04/12) One of Stag's Leaps signature wines, the Artemis blends fruit
from the winery's Arcadia, Fay and SLV vineyards. Briar fruit and wild rosemary aromas and
flavors open up to reveal grilled meat and nutmeg notes that pair perfectly with steak au
poivre or osso bucco. Drink now with some decanting or age for 5-7 years.

2009 Kalinda Dry Creek Sauvignon Blanc
2009 Kalinda Dry Creek Sauvignon Blanc
A great value in zippy, tangy Sauvignon Blanc. Clean and crisp with citric flavors.
Sauvignon Blanc - One of the best known "international" varieties originally cultivated in
France and considered the parent of, with Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon. Sauvignon's
wonderfully distinctive aromatics generate some of wine's most colorful descriptors, among
them "cat pee," herbaceous, grassy, citrusy the world over. In France, the apex of Sauvignon
Blanc production is the Loire Valley, in the appellations of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé,
where the terroir expresses itself most beautifully through the grape. Sauvignon Blanc is
also the leading white grape varietal in Bordeaux, where it is paired with the fatter, richer
Sémillon to varying degrees. Relatively easy to cultivate, though more suited to cool climates,
Sauvignon Blanc has made inroads in Europe outside of France, especially in Northeastern
Italy's Friuli and Alto Adige, but also on the Slovenian border. These lovely wines are
often overshadowed by Sauvignon Blanc's achievements in the New World, namely New Zealand,
South Africa and California. New Zealand's Sauvignon Blancs, more conspicuously fruity than
most French examples, landed the small island nation on the world wine map in the late-1980s
and 1990s. South African Sauvignons are one of the most successful international varieties
produced in that country and are often quite elegant and affordable. In California, Robert
Mondavi managed to, almost single-handedly, created a market for Sauvignon Blanc by renaming
his oak-fermented version Fumé Blanc. While some wineries still use the name, California
Sauvignon Blanc has secured its place in the California wine pantheon, particularly those
from the Napa Valley. Washington State, Chile and Argentina also have considerable plantings
of the grape.
Country: United States - When people consider domestic wine, they normally think
about the state of California. The fine viticultural Region within California, including
the Napa Valley, Sonoma, Santa Cruz Mountains, Mendocino and Santa Barbara, are capable
of growing grapes of world-class quality. But there's plenty of fabulous wine coming from
other states, too. Oregon, Washington and New York are also causing eyebrows (and glassware)
to be raised around the world. Click for a list of bestselling items from the United States.
Sub-Region: California - With the explosive growth that California's wine industry has
seen the past several years, it's easy to view winemaking and grape growing in the Golden
State as a recent phenomenon. And while it's true that California's viticultural history is
brief compared to several European countries, this state's roots date back well over 200 years.
Due to the enormous response to California wine within the United States and worldwide, there
are thousands of excellent and diverse wines being produced within the state each year. For
our entire selection of California wines, please visit this link.
Specific Appellation: Napa Valley - America's most famous wine region, which encompasses a
varied geographical territory running about 20 miles long from the San Francisco Bay northward
to the foot of Mount St. Helena. Napa's great diversity, both in terms of climate and terroir,
has led to the creation of a number of smaller AVAs like Stags Leap District, Rutherford,
Howell Mountain, Oakville and Mount Veeder, among others. Cabernet and chardonnay still reign
supreme, but just about everything under the sun is grown in Napa Valley, in quality levels
ranging from $2 jug wine to $500 a bottle California cab.

2006 Sterling SVR Reserve Napa Valley Bordeaux Blend (Was $40)
94 points from the Wine Enthusiast: "Beautiful now, with decanting, due to the generous
fruit flavors and the way the oak shows them off. Dry and smooth, it brims with blackberry,
cherry, red and black currant, blueberry, cocoa, anise and sandalwood and smoky flavors
that go on and on. Should age, too. Mainly Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot and Petit Verdot.
Now-2014." (12/09) According to Wine Spectator: "Tight, structured and full-bodied, with
firm, ripe dried currant, blackberry, mineral, anise and sage flavors that have a touch of
black licorice before ending with loamy, earthy tannins. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and
Petit Verdot. Best from 2011 through 2017. " (11/09) Decant this wine and it will reward
your palate with dark black cherry fruit, spicy cedar notes, lead pencil aromas and a firm
tannic backbone that will hold up well with a grilled meat dish. The wine shows lots of
structure, acidity and tannin to hold up well over the next several years in a cellar.

espresso and black fruits, soft acidity, rich, medium to full-bodied flavors, and a

to consume during its first 10-12 years of life. As I have written before, Carolyn and
Perry Butler have quickly made Juslyn one of the finest sources of top quality wine on
Spring Mountain. They planted their estate vineyard in 1997 and have been sourcing high
quality grapes from several of Andy Beckstoffer’s top Napa Valley vineyards." (12/06)

95 points Robert Parker: "The 2007 has terrific black currant fruit, licorice,
incense, and subtle smoke, an opulent, even voluptuous mouthfeel, dazzling purity
and texture, and a skyscraper-like mouthfeel. This is a sensational Opus One, with
sweet tannin and impressive precision and depth. It can be drunk now or cellared
for 25+ years." (12./09) 93 points Stephen Tanzer: "Deep red-ruby. Very sexy, perfumed
aromas of ripe black raspberry, roast coffee and flowers; there's a wildness here that
I find compelling. Quite fresh and juicy in the mouth, but with a slightly exotic
character to the dark berry, black cherry, smoky oak and bitter chocolate flavors.
Not a fat style of 2007 but perfumed and energetic. Most impressive today on the firm,
long finish, where substantial ripe tannins reach the front teeth. Built for a long
evolution in bottle. I'd love to compare this against the 2006 in ten years."

1994 V. Sattui Reserve Stock Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet Sauvignon and Blends - Cabernet Sauvignon has come a long way from its role as
a blending varietal, however dominant, in the wines of Bordeaux. Today it is the most
planted red varietal in the world. Identified as a descendent of Cabernet Franc and
Sauvignon Blanc, the late-ripening Cabernet Sauvignon needs to be planted in warmer
climates to fully ripen. Its small berries can easily be identified for their distinctive
blue color, thick skins and high tannins. And while the varietal has its own definitive
characteristics: green pepper-like aromas and black currant flavors among them, it is
perhaps most prized for its ability to convey terroir, vintage and winemaking. A relatively
new varietal, Cabernet Sauvignon started making inroads into the wines of the Médoc and
Graves in the late-18th century. Today it is also dominant in the up-and-coming
Entre-Deux-Mers region of Bordeaux and can also be found in Southwest France. It is the
companion varietal to Sangiovese in Italy's Super Tuscans and is planted all over Europe,
stretching to lesser-known winegrowing regions like Russia and Lebanon. In the Americas
Cabernet Sauvignon has found champions in every nook and cranny of California and among
winemakers in Washington, where it complements plantings of Merlot. In South America,
Cab thrives in Chile, but can also be found in smaller amounts in Argentina and
even in Mexico.

Zinfandel is considered America's own great indigenous grape, even though its origins
lie on the Adriatic coast. Planted throughout California and the Pacific Northwest,
Zinfandel is at its best in warm regions with cooler temperatures during harvest. The
wines can range from off-dry Rosés, White Zinfandels, and light bistro styled wines,
to big, rich powerful wines - even luscious wines for dessert bottling. The flavors
range from plummy to raspberry, although deep blackberry fruit and brambly spice tones
are most common.

California's Napa Valley has been a source of world-class Cabernet Sauvignon for well

lush, ripe full-bodied feel and rich flavors of currant and berry. Wines from the valley
floor, particularly around Rutherford, are famed for a dusty quality and those coming
from the hillsides surrounding the valley, Mt. Veeder , Diamond Mountain and Howell
Mountain for example, tend to be a little leaner with more obvious structural elements.
