June 2007
Summer is in full gear at Dry
Creek Vineyard. Our Summer Kick off party, held
on Saturday, June 2, was a huge success.
The afternoon was filled with the smooth
sounds of Black Top Moon, along with barbecued
hot dogs and hamburgers, and our delicious Fumé
Blanc and Heritage Zinfandel. Many folks brought
their picnic blankets and made an afternoon of
it. We’re already looking forward to next year!
|

It’s a terrific time to be in the Dry Creek
Valley and Healdsburg area. Summer concerts on
the plaza in downtown Healdsburg (Tuesday
nights), Saturday farmer's markets and other tastings, fairs, and auctions keep the entire
summer alive with activity. Hopefully your wine
country plans include a stop at Dry Creek
Vineyard. We look forward to seeing you this
summer! |

It’s something to ponder -
which white wine should I drink
while enjoying an afternoon in the
sun? For us, there’s no better
choice than our 2005 Chardonnay
from the Russian River Valley.
|
|
Rich, yet
delicate and well balanced,
this Chardonnay delivers all
the elegance and
sophistication of a
Chardonnay at a much higher
price point. At $20 per
bottle, it is a true steal.
We recommend serving our
Chardonnay at about 60°
- this brings out the
wonderful character and
charm of this delicious
white wine. Perfect to
complement our
Featured Recipe,
Dry Creek Lime Grilled
Chicken Caesar Salad.

Aah, the
4th of July. It’s one of our favorite
times of year. Families and friends
gather to celebrate – barbecues,
swimming,
picnicking, boating – it’s truly
a great time of year. |
|
|
 |
Of course,
the celebration would not be complete
without a bottle, or two, or three…of
delicious Dry Creek Vineyard wine. A
well-chilled bottle of our
Chenin Blanc
or
Fumé Blanc is a perfect choice for
the afternoon.
After the sun goes
down, enjoy the fireworks along with a
bottle of our
Zinfandel or
Cabernet
Sauvignon. You really can’t go wrong!

We’ve heard it
before - Wine,
consumed in
moderation, has
positive health
benefits. In a new
study by the
original "French
Paradox," researcher
Serge Renaud
offers more evidence
that moderate wine
consumption is
associated with a
significant
reduction in
all-cause mortality,
cardiovascular
disease and cancer
among men.
|
 |
|
Renaud and
colleagues
from the
University
of Bordeaux
found that
moderate
wine
consumption
(2-3 glasses
a day) was
associated
with a 30%
reduction in
the death
rate from
all causes;
a 35%
percent
reduction in
death rates
from
cardiovascular
disease; and
an 18-24%
reduction in
death rates
from cancer.
The French
Paradox, of
60 minutes
fame, is the
observation
that,
although the
French and
Americans
have similar
high fat
diets, the
French have
a much lower
incidence of
cardiovascular
disease.
Speculation
was that
this is due
to the
protective
effects of
wine
consumption,
since the
French drink
much more
wine than we
do. Of
course,
there are
many other
possible
explanations.
We for
one don’t
need any
more
explaining.
Let’s grab a
glass and
drink to our
health! |
