Celebrate - St. Julian Winery

The Buds are
Bursting!
The snow has melted and the vines are waking up and getting ready
to do what they do best. The soil begins to warm and the sap starts to flow in
the vines, pushing out the tiny leaves that will make our 2016 vintage wines.
Bud break is nature’s way of telling us that the fun is just beginning. The
excitement of this year’s ups and downs, with all its unknowns, begins with
this small bud.
In the tasting rooms, our teams are busy with spring cleaning,
training new Wine Consultants and planning great new educational events.
We hope to see you at one of these fun experiences. In the back of the winery,
the crew has been adding some new tanks and bottling equipment. In addition
to having baby Emilie in January, Winemaker Nancie, along with her lab team,
have been closely monitoring the progression of the wines in barrels and
tanks, making adjustments as needed. Many wines are in the final stages
getting ready for botteling. Still Master Larry has been working on some new
rum and gin to be released this spring- another great reason to plan a visit!
The spring also has many of our taste buds craving lighter wines. We
are excited to share with you some of our new releases which are perfect for
the season, like Sauvignon Blanc, Sweet Nancie Blueberry, Serious Rosé and
the return of Bella Bee. So many delicious reasons to be excited about spring!
April is Michigan Wine Month
Celebratewith
St. Julian!
As Michigan’s oldest and most awarded winery, St. Julian has been making
wine from 100% Michigan fruit for 95 years! We are proud to work
alongside our growers, winemakers, distributors and
all lovers of wine who support this amazing industry.
Cheers to the Great Lakes State & Great Wines!
Nancie Oxley, Winemaker
This past winter was unseasonably mild, yet our vines were able to harden
off for the winter and rest for the coming season. That’s great news as we are hoping to
recover from the significant damage to the vines sustained during the harsh winters of
2014 and 2015. With spring comes the warmth and sunshine needed to awaken the
vines. We are cautious with the warm weather projections since the vines are primed
for bud break. Early bud break means greater potential for spring frost damage.
Fingers crossed that our Michigan warm up is slow and steady, giving the vines an
unhurried “wake up call” to start the 2016 vintage. ( As of the second week of March,
when this newsletter went to print, the weather was cooperating!)
Our April new release wines come from the 2015 vintage. While 2015 was
limited on quantity due to the winter damage, the quality of the fruit we did harvest
was exceptional. Many of you ask how we determine which wines to feature each
quarter for Wine Club. Priority access to new-release and limited quantity wines is
one of the great perks of Wine Club! While we wish we had enough of every wine to
give to every member, Mother Nature does play a hand in the selection process. Harsh
weather means less wine to share. New release wines are allocated for different clubs
depending on the number of bottles produced and the number of members in each
club level. All members receive exclusive selections, but for some of the extremely
small lot wines, we reserve them for our 4 and 6 bottle club levels due to availability.
Here are a few favorites we are excited to share this quarter!
Those of you lucky enough to have experienced Bella Bee in October 2014,
know that this wine quickly sold out. It became one of our most requested
wines to bring back. We heard you! It’s out of love for our sweet wine
members that we decided to re-release this wine. Pure Michigan honey
from Christensen Family Apiaries in White Pigeon, MI, is infused into the
blend of Vidal, Seyval and Cayuga wine, which is a very difficult and
involved process. It takes over 1 pound of honey to make 1 gallon of wine!
The result is flavors of honey with hints of peach blossom and honeycomb,
perfect with so many spring dishes!
One of our staff’s all-time favorites for the warmer weather is a nice, crisp
dry Rose’ and we are so excited about the return of this wine. The 2015 BR
Serious Rose’ is made in the traditional saignee’ method, or “bleeding off”
method, from the red varieties Chambourcin, Pinot noir, Merlot, Cabernet
franc and Chancellor. This juice only comes into contact with the skins and
seeds for a short amount of time, producing a light and fruity wine that is
pink in color. This refreshing dry blend gains beautiful color and structure
from the Chambourcin and Chancellor. The Pinot noir gives it the bright
flavors of strawberry and raspberry, as well as the acidity. The Merlot and
Cabernet franc add a touch of complexity. This wine is seriously perfect for
spring and summer.
We have many favorite wines here at the winery, but this may be our alltime most loved white wine. The 2015 BR Sauvignon Blanc is Estate
grown on 2 acres at our Mountain Road Vineyard in Coloma. This
variety LOVES the Mountain Road Vineyard. The soil is gravely, which
allows for good drainage so the roots can dig deep and don’t get what
we call “wet feet.” Located on a hill, Mt. Road’s elevation gives the vines
good sun exposure during the day, which builds the citrus flavors, and
then cools them off at night. This temperature shift helps to build the
beautiful acid that is classic to this wine. Also, this higher elevation
helps reduce winter kill on the vines. Crisp flavors of grapefruit and
passionfruit are perfect for the warmer weather. Our Sauvignon blanc is
very limited. We actually painstakingly hand bottled this vintage so as
not to waste a drop! St. Julian President David Braganini and his brother
John have plans to expand the Sauvignon blanc vineyard at Mountain
Road. In the future, we will have more to enjoy! Also, we do plan on
having some available at our Vino in the Vines events this summer. This
is another great reason to come visit us at Mountain Road!
What wines would you recommend for
people who think they only like beer?
Cassidy Browning
Fargo, ND
So many people identify themselves as only a
beer drinker. Yet beers and wines have many of
the same flavor profiles. For every style of
beer, there is a complimentary style of
wine. Here are some suggestions to try!
Light Beer (lagers and pilsner): Known
for being light, crisp and refreshing this is
the most popular style of beer in the world.
Light beer is usually lower in alcohol
content and is light in color, making for an
easy drinking beer for any occasion. A great
wine choice would be an easy drinking one
that is refreshing and bubbly like Sweet
Nancie Sparkling Traminette or MI Brut
Champagne. Also, our SJ Reisling doesn’t
have bubbles but it’s crisp & refreshing.
Indian Pale Ale (IPAs): Pale ales are
richer, heavier and fruitier. They can be
sweet while being bitter. A wine that
compliments an IPA would have a nice
balance of fruit and tannin. Our Braganini
Reserve Pinot Noir or Cabernet Franc are
lighter in body and have balanced tannic
(bitter) notes that are popular among IPA
beers.
Wheat Ale: This style of beer is only lightly
hopped and offers a smooth, creamy
texture with a range of flavor profiles from
slightly sweet to notes of citrus and
coriander. Wheat ale drinkers should
consider trying our Braganini Reserve
Chardonnay, which offers a smooth buttery
sensation with notes of citrus and oak.
Dark Beer (porter and stout): This style
of beer is dark, earthy, robust and known
for having chocolate and coffee notes. Dark
beer drinkers will enjoy a strong wine to
accompany their strong taste, something
like our Braganini Reserve Syrah, Meritage
or Chancellor could be very satisfying for
their palate.
Meet our Grower
Great wines come from great fruit.
At St. Julian, we pride ourselves on
being a “Pure Michigan” winery. We use 100% southwest Michigan fruit grown by
local farmers, many who have been working with St. Julian for generations. The
healthy relationships that St. Julian has with its growers is a key factor to the quality
of wines we produce year after year. We would like to introduce you to Dan Nitz.
He, along with his father Jim and daughter Ashley, have been growing grapes on
their land in Baroda, MI since the turn of the century.
How did you get involved with growing grapes?
Dan: It’s a family business. My great grandpa had juice grapes dating back to the early 1900s. My dad is 3rd generation, I’m 4th and
Ashley is 5th generation. Ashley has a son, so technically we have 6. We now have 368 acres with 268 acres being wine grapes. We
began selling grapes to St. Julian back in the 1970s.
Ashley, what is your role in the family business?
Ashley: I run errands, clean the equipment, mow and paint posts. I’m just trying to learn as much as I can. We are building a Wedding
Barn on one of our vineyards and I’ve been working on that.
What grapes do you grow?
Dan: About 20 varieties. We grow vinifera, hybrid and juice grapes. Our vinifera are Riesling, Pinot gris, Chardonnay, Albariño,
Cabernet franc and Merlot, The hybrids are Traminette, Chambourcin, Chancellor, Foch and Vidal blanc. A lot of our wine grapes died
last year from the cold. We pulled all the Cabernet sauvignon and Syrah. Syrah was pulled out by just about everyone. They make a
nice big bunch and are easy to grow, but the winters make them tender. We’ve just begun to pull down sprouts and then fold them
down and cover them with straw. That way if there is another cold spell they don’t freeze. So we could go back to growing these picky
ones like Syrah, Cabernet sauvignon and Pinot blanc.
What are some of your favorite varietals?
Dan: To drink, I like Albariño, Sauvignon blanc and Riesling. To grow, it’s Chambourcin. It’s easy and doesn’t get disease because it has
a nice big bunch. It’s loose, so you don’t get bunch rot. The tight cluster ones, like Riesling and Pinot gris, are so tight that if you get half
an inch of rain, they split and start to go bad.
Since you’ve been in the business, how has the Michigan Wine Industry
changed?
Dan: In the 1980s and earlier, we treated the wine grapes like we do the juice
grapes. We trimmed, sprayed and harvested them. Today is very different. We pull
the leaves around the grapes at least 3 times to make sure the sun exposure is
constant because it builds color, sugar and flavor. We never used to thin before.
Now, if the vines are producing too much fruit, we trim off extra bunches so the fruit
flavors concentrate. We’ll take the top bunches and leave the bottom bunches
because you get better quality closer to the cane. We’ve learned that if we go over 4
tons per acre the quality of the juice goes down hill and St. Julian won’t accept the
grapes. You have to have good quality fruit to make good quality wine. We go to
lots of growing and wine conferences and are always learning. Every year we are
getting better. Michigan was hanging 40 or 50 years behind the rest of the world
and now we are catching up and our wines are really really good. We compete with
the world now and everyone puts their heart into it.
What do you want people to know about Michigan wines?
Dan: Southwest Michigan makes some really great wine! We keep the acids in the
grapes because of the cold nights. Out west, it’s just so hot that they bake all their
fruit flavors out. It’s always warm and their acid drops out and they have to add
citric acid to balance their wines. Our acid is natural and the cold nights keeps our
fruity flavors. Our white wines we have down to a “T” and the reds are getting
better and better. St. Julian puts the growers names on the bottle and that gives us
pride and makes us do a better job in the vineyard. It shows in the quality of the
wines and we make some darn good wines.

Spirit
We are excited to announce that Still Master Larry Gilbert has crafted 2
new spirits using our Christian Carl Copper Still! Named for Winery
President David’s children, Angela and Gene, A & G Rum and A & G Gin
will be released this spring. Last summer, Larry experimented with
some prototype stills creating small batches using botanicals like
fennel, black pepper, juniper berry and vanilla. After many experiments,
the final formulas were determined. Look for updates on its release at
www.stjulian.com
A & G GIN
In order to make gin, Larry starts with our vodka made from grapes. He then takes
his secret blend of botanicals and puts them in a basket. The vodka is then distilled
again, steeping it in the botanicals throughout the distillation process. This added
distillation makes for a very smooth spirit. It is through the addition of these herbs
and spices that the vodka becomes gin. So delicious with aromas of juniper
blossoms and wildflowers, this gin has nice fruit flavors with anise seed and a great
lemon finish. Here at the winery, we are loving it on ice with a splash of soda; or
straight up as Martini. It’s very refreshing and perfect for warmer weather!
A & G RUM
Rum MUST be made from cane sugar, cane juice or molasses. Larry used white cane
sugar mixed with water and then fermented this mixture. When fermentation was
complete, it was distilled and stored in barrels. The rum was then aged in oak barrels
to give it a nice vanilla finish. This rum is amber in color with aromas of toffee,
mocha and spice. It’s a delicious, lightly spiced rum perfect with tropical flavors, like
pineapple and orange. Try a Michigan Tornado Warning: 2 oz. A & G Rum,
5 oz. Ginger Beer or ginger ale and fresh lime. Then hang on!

Cap Drain - Cuvee #3
Tasting Notes from Nancie Oxley:

This bold dry red blend is made using a technique called Cap Drain
where the tank of wine is drained and the "cap" of skins remains in
the tank. We let nature take its course for 24 hours and gravity
slowly presses the skins, releasing the most beautiful balanced wine.
From the Cabernet sauvignon we gather natural acidity, from
Cabernet franc allspice and cherries, and from Syrah have hints of
tobacco. Come to our Cap Drain event to learn more about this
process!
