Merryvale Carneros Pinot Noir

This is Merryvale's third offering of Carneros Pinot Noir. The grapes for this wine are from Block A1 of the Stanley Ranch Vineyard which is situated near the Napa River and benefit greatly from cool winds and fog from every direction. We were quite blown away when we tasted this Pinot as it offered strong aromas of cherry and candied fruit to compliment its full body, ripe tannins and red currant flavors. Merryvale has done it again, this time with the fickle and recently famous Pinot Noir grape! MEPN04 MEPN04

Merryvale Cabernet Sauvignon

There has been much hype in the press about the 2001 California vintage in regards to the Cabernet crop and they are absolutely correct to be as excited as they are. Predicted by some to be the best vintage on record from Northern California, Merryvale has given us two offerings that fit the bill. The 2001 Merryvale Cabernet sauvignon "Vineyard X" is a huge and powerful wine. Loads of lucious fruit and perfectly integrated tannins and oak along with its 30+ second finish will make it hard for anyone to keep the corks in these bottles. This is a 20 year wine and needs a couple more years of cellaring to help the wine open up! (Subject to Availability) MCVX01 MCVX01

Wine based Cocktails Coming

At the Olive Garden restaurant chain's annual Wine Category Management Meeting, vendors met with company marketers to discuss the future. In a savvy spirit of partnership, Olive Garden revealed its goals, growth opportunities and areas of improvement with its winery partners. In turn, winery vendors shared the latest industry trends, pricing and marketing ideas and other valuable suggestions.
Greg Rees, director of beverage marketing for Olive Garden, describes how Trinchero Family Estates Winery responded at the company's recent event: "They always do a great job. They think outside the box, give us interesting tactics and different ways of presenting wines. What's neat is they are not strictly selling their own product but recommend wines that aren't theirs if they believe it benefits our overall wine list." Hotel Magazines
Bill Barry, VP of hospitality and foodservice for Trinchero Family Estates, says his company has built a skilled marketing department that supports their customers with innovative data, analysis, and growth recommendations. http://hfbexecutive.com
The most innovative idea presented by Trinchero to Olive Garden? "Wine-based cocktails," says Rees. "They created recipes and held a tasting. Most people think Sangria when they think about wine drinks. Trinchero's idea helps grow the entire wine category."
