Get Restaurant Information: All Good Pizza (San Francisco) Kendejah Restaurant (San Leandro) Siam Bay Authentic Thai Cuisine (Oakland) My name is Leslie Sbrocco and I’m the host of Check, Please! Bay Area. Each week, I will be sharing my tasting notes about the wine, beer, and spirits the guests and I drank on set during the taping of the show. I will also share some wine, beer and spirits tips with each episode. This week I discuss: pinot gris. Schramsberg ‘Mirabelle’ Brut, California $29 For the quality, Mirabelle is a top value for bubbly lovers. A label from iconic Napa Valley sparkling wine producer, Schramsberg, who has been crafting world-class wines for more than 50 years, this California bottling is class in a glass. 2017 Funcken Hausen Rose, South Mendoza, Argentina $18 (one liter) With a whimsical name and a larger format bottle, this wine is a steal for parties and casual sipping. Made from Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, its a dry, delicious pink that’s oh so FUN to drink. 2016 Dutcher Crossing ‘Bacigalupi Vineyard’ Chardonnay, Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, California $41 With a philosophy focused on small-lot, high-quality winemaking, owner Debra Mathy and winemaker Nick Briggs, are making wines worth of seeking out. The winery is based in Dry Creek Valley in Sonoma, but this Chardonnay hails from a famed vineyard in neighboring Russian River Valley. It is rich and lush yet balanced and juicy with a streak of minerality reminiscent of top white Burgundy. 2015 Chimney Rock Cabernet Sauvignon, Stags Leap District, Napa Valley, California $99 Chimney Rock is one of Napa Valley’s classic anchor wineries. It produces some of what I consider Napa’s best versions of Cabernet Sauvignon. Case in point, the 2015 Stags Leap District bottling. Intense, weighty, complex and layered, it has only begun to shine. With the potential to age for decades, it’s a splurge-worthy red to covet.
