For the past 6 years, the Santa Lucia Highlands Artisan winemakers have held what is arguably one of the most delicious and fun introspectives on an AVA: what began as the Highlands Fling, morphed into the Santa Lucia Highlands Gala, a gathering of all the wineries that produce wines from fruit grown in the SLH AVA. 
This narrow strip of rugged land above the Salinas River was once home to cattle and row crops. Over the last 30 years, driven largely by the success of pinot noir and the efforts of Rich Smith of Paraiso and the Central Coast Vineyard Team, Steve McIntyre of Monterey-Pacific , Dan Lee of Morgan and the ambassadorial crusade of Gary Pisoni, this region has become a mecca for Burgundian fruit and consistently produces some of the finest examples of  pinot and chardonnay coming out of North America.
This years event, organized by Dave Muret of the SLH Artisans with assistance from Holly Boekenoogen (left), whose family hosted the event last year at their vineyard, was held inside the cavernous Mer Soleil barrel room off River Road, in the northern part of the benchlands. As beautiful as the Highlands are in May, or any other time [...]]]></description>

Ah, Carmel. 
Just the sound of it evokes images of quaint thatch-roofed cottages, art galleries, misty ocean beach walks and the sunshiney voice of Doris Day wafting in the backdrop of your dreams. And dogs&#8230;everywhere.
Have you been there lately? Yikes, the place has exploded with wine tasting rooms, from the truly arty bizarre (Figge) to the newly relocated Scheid, who left behind Cannery Row for downtown Carmel. 
There are so many places to get beautifully lost in this beachfront town. It’s probably the safest place to get toasted in all the land. But let’s just say, walk carefully and don’t even think of driving, if you plan to do the entire tour of all the tasting rooms, called the Carmel Wine Walk By-the-Sea, from Caraccioli Cellars to Wrath. You can obtain a Wine Tasting Passport from the Carmel Chamber of Commerce, which is an $80 value, and includes a $10 tasting flight at each of the participating tasting rooms.
Last week, I grabbed my adventurous friend Lolin and headed out for a day of fun as the weather turned gloomy and the chill in the air solidified into actual precip. But it didn’t dampen our spirits.
First, we ducked into The Cheese [...]]]></description>

Monterey wineries had an impressive showing at the recently completed 2012 SF Chronicle competition, once confirming that this AVA has &#8220;Pinot Power&#8221; in spades. And let&#8217;s not forget all the gorgeous Chardonnay that flows like golden sunshine from the vine-threaded hillsides.

It was Double Gold for Wrath for their 2009 “Fermata” chardonnay, $34.99, Double Gold for Paraiso’s 2009 SLH estate pinot, $24.99, Double Gold for Scheid’s 2009 Estate pinot noir ($32), and Double Gold for Hahn SLH Estate 2010 pinot noir ($34.99).
Proving Winemaker Sabrine Rodems has the golden touch when it comes to pinot, Wrath took Gold for both the 2009 Pommard 4/667 and 115/667 pinots, $34.99.  
CRU scored Gold for their Vineyard Montage pinot, $23. Mendelson Vineyard (Napa) took their 2008 Doctor’s vineyard pinot to Double Gold, and the 2009 version to Gold in the $35 to $40 category. 
Bernardus took Silver for their SLH pinot in this category, as did Wrath for their 2009 “Ex Vite” pinot, Monterey appellation. This is a fabulously bright wine, overflowing with strawberry and rhubarb pie, with no wood to get in the way. It was fermented in neutral barrels.
Truckee River Wine Company, a humble little spot I’ve enjoyed visiting up by the Truckee [...]]]></description>
