    All About Rosé

    A decade ago, rosé was viewed mainly as a seasonal wine, with spring releases sold out by September. However, noted St. Supéry Estate Vineyards & Winery CEO Emma Swain in a recent episode of the https://stsupery.com/podcast (St. Supéry Sips) podcast, that is no longer the case. “It certainly doesn't seem to be that way today,” she said. “Rosé is taking a much greater role throughout the year.” Joining Swain on this rosé-themed podcast episode were Wendy Stanford, director of category management for imported wines at http://www.wine.com (Wine.com), and Nicole Haarklau, food and beverage director at https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/dalga-hotel-vin-autograph-collection/overview/?scid=ed7c159d-2c91-45b5-904d-31458a840732&gclid=Cj0KCQjw5ZSWBhCVARIsALERCvyoWFymjTp6M7lyGfx_WDl2ViyHHFA5jsMQvJFdR63T-1voV-gxpocaAsm7EALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds (Hotel Vin), an Autograph Collection property in Grapevine, Texas.

    Sustainable Seafood part 1: Chef Kyle Connaughton from Single Thread Farms

    As the holder of Napa Green certifications for its vineyards and winery, St. Supéry is deeply committed to sustainability. This is true not only in the vineyards and winery, but also on the dinner plate. Just as sustainably farmed grapes are the basis for its estate-grown wines, St. Supéry seeks out sustainable seafood for the winery’s culinary program and highlights responsible purveyors through its annual Great Sustainable Seafood Tour. In the latest episode of the https://stsupery.com/podcast (St.Supéry Sips) podcast, winery CEO Emma Swain chatted with Kyle Connaughton, chef and co-owner at https://www.singlethreadfarms.com/restaurant (SingleThread Farms) in Healdsburg, about the importance of sourcing sustainable seafood in restaurants, and supporting responsible purveyors.

    Raise a Glass for #SauvBlancDay

    Wine drinkers around the world know chardonnay as Napa Valley’s signature white grape, but what some do not realize is that the region also produces beautifully complex sauvignon blanc. The valley is home to just 2,500 acres of sauvignon blanc, and nearly one-tenth of it is planted in the estate vineyards at St. Supéry Estate Vineyards and Winery. While the official date falls on May 6, you might say that every day is Sauvignon Blanc Day at St. Supéry.  In the latest episode of the https://stsupery.com/podcast (St. Supéry Sips) podcast, winery CEO Emma Swain discussed the appeal of sauvignon blanc and its future in the Napa Valley with guests Dan Petroski, winemaker and owner of https://massican.com/ (Massican) winery in Napa Valley; Kelli Audrey White, author of http://www.napavalleythenandnow.com/ (Napa Valley Then & Now); and Steven Jones, vice president of food and beverage for https://www.gatehospitality.com/ (Gate HospitalityGroup), operator of four luxurious private clubs in Florida.

    Sustainability is an essential part of the company ethos at St. Supéry Estate Vineyards and Winery. For years, the winery has maintained Napa Green Winery and Napa Green Vineyard certifications, which are designed to protect the land and environment through practices like cover-cropping in the vineyards, generating energy through solar arrays, and water conservation. In honor of “Down to Earth Month” in April, St. Supéry CEO Emma Swain invited another Napa Valley leader in sustainability, Beth Novak Milliken, president and CEO of Spottswoode Estate, to join her on the St. Supéry Sips podcast for a discussion about what distinguishes different eco-focused certifications, and the importance taking care of the environment and our communities.
