Happy Easter from Red Red Wine On A Sunday. Relaxing this Sunday evening with one of my favorites - Terra D Oro Zinfandel Port. Hmmmmm - sweet and smooth. The perfect compliment to some homemade Shortcake topped with Strawberries and Cool Whip.

Listening to the spoils of a weekend at the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Festival - the official compilation from the bands that played at the show and a nice Jerry Lee Lewis 7" ep that I picked up at one of the dealers booths.

2007 RoxyAnn Claret


What a beautiful weekend out here in Northern California. Missed Record Store day due to a commitment to my daughter's Girl Scout troup, but hit up the local record store today and picked up a few gems (the Cars new single and the Husker Du / Green Day split on orange vinyl!)

Cracked open a 2007 RoxyAnn Claret this evening to go with a homemade Lasagna. The first taste of this wine yielded a mellow fruity nose and a nice smooth finish. I'd like to thank Lorn at the Ashland Wine Cellar for pointing me over to this nice representation of what Southern Oregon Wines are all about. I was lucky enough to spend a few days up in Ashland last week and was happy to find his fine establishment.

Here's the back label propoganda: Since 1908, The Parsons Family have farmed the southwest slopes of RoxyAnn Peak in Southern Oregon's Rogue Valley. Today, these vineyards take advantage of the same shallow, fractured linestone-clay soils to yield RoxyAnn Winery's signature ripe, concentrated style. Our estate Claret showcases layers of ripe currant, black cherry, and blackberry with juicy plum, anise and mocha flavors giving way to seweet barrel spice and polished tannins in the long, rich, flavorful finish.

You can find the website here ----> RoxyAnn Winery

2009 La Granja Carinena Syrah


A beautiful afternoon out here in Northern California. It is about 70 degrees this afternoon and I've been slaving away in the garden all day, so I've decided to stay in this evening and roast some Catalonian Pork Stuffed Apples. I've got a Mallorcan Vegetable Stew with cabbage, bell peppers and artichoke hearts bubbling away on the stove top also. These should go well with the wine that I've just uncorked, a Syrah from the North East region of Spain called Carinena. Here's some propoganda from the producer:

History of brand:
La Granja 360º means in Spanish "The farm 360". We are happy we can present you more animals from our farm, especially this one, which brings us more matches for the day to day.

Vineyard:
The region is located in the north of Spain, a new plantation of the Syrah grape. The Cariñena Denominación de origen is situated at 56 km south east of Zaragoza, in Aragón. In the Iberian mountains between the Campo de Cariñena valley and the Ebro river. The Denominación covers 50.000 hectares and has a long viticulture tradition and has a rich culture heritage from the mudejar period.Generally the climate is arid in Cariñena, with an annual rainfall of 350 mm. The summer are dry and sunny, the winters are cold and the area often feels the effects of "the Cierzo" wind, wich contributes to the dryness of the climate. The soil are poor, stony and made up of ochre-coloured limestone. The vineyards are found at an altitude of
between 400 and 800 m.

Fermentation & Ageing:
After manual harvesting, the grapes are destemmed and pressed before fermention in stainless steel tanks at 26º C during 25 days. The maceration, which lasts10 days with 3 daily "pompages" (pump overs), incorporates the malolactic fermentation. Finally, the wine is filtered and bottled under the strictest hygienic conditions.

Winemaker's notes:
Deep dark red. Plenty of fruit to taste, blackberry primarily. A medium bodied wine. Juicy with balanced tannins.

Service suggestions:
A great match with spicy Mexican food, oven cooked with meat or that typical Spanish meal

My take on the wine - a nice Syrah and a bargain at $4.99 down at my local Trader Joes. Not a fruit bomb, but has nice blueberry and blackberry notes. I'll be getting more for future Catalonian dinners.

Here's another perspective from a great website called The Reverse Wine Snob, just follow the link ------> 2009 La Granja Syrah

You can find the recipes for the Pork Stuffed Apples and Mallorcan Vegetable Stew in this great book - Deliciouso! The Regional Cooking of Spain
