<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal; line-height: 107%;">Anyone who
has seen the movie “Sideways” can attest to Myles, the lead character’s love
for Pinot Noir. Well what’s not to love?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Here are a few tidbits that shine a light on this fickle, delicate and
difficult grape.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal; line-height: 107%;">Pinot Noir dates
back 2000 years to Roman times. It predates Cabernet Sauvignon by over 1000
years!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Currently, it ranks as the 10<sup>th</sup>
most planted grape varietal in the world with France in the lead and the USA a
close second for most acres planted.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal; line-height: 107%;">French for
Black Pinecone, Pinot Noir’s moniker reflects its dark color and shape of the
grape cluster.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Interestingly, Pinot Noir
shares the same DNA with Pinot Gris/Grigio and Pinot Blanc apart from a few color
mutations.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal; line-height: 107%;">A thin skinned
grape prone to disease, rot and frost bite, Pinot Noir earns its fickle reputation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It grows best in a cool damp climate near
protected valleys and large bodies of water.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Difficult to ripen and easily damaged, this grape can give vintners a
run for their money.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

outcome!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A light to medium bodied red
wine, Pinot Noir is pale in color almost translucent with subtle flavors of
spicy earth, black cherries, berries, and current. Pair it with grilled salmon,
roast duck, pork loin, baked chicken or an earthy mushroom risotto. You will
not be disappointed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal; line-height: 107%;">California and
Oregon are the major Pinot Noir growers in the United States.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Oregon’s
signature grape is Pinot Noir, gaining international accolades for their
superior quality in both grapes and wine. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Because Wisconsin is not at all suited for growing
Pinot Noir, Harbor Ridge sources this fine fickle grape from the Columbia
Gorge, an appellation shared with Oregon and Washington, to produce our Pinot
Noir.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal; line-height: 107%;">Launched in
October of 2018, Harbor Ridge’s Pinot Noir is aged with French and American oak
submerged in cool stainless-steel tanks for ten months.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Characteristically light in color, our Pinot
Noir is delicate, yet savory with flavors of black cherry and berries and an
undercurrent of spice.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Open a bottle,
settle in and enjoy a glass. It’s so worth it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">In recent
years, Rose` wine has swelled in popularity across the nation. Everyone seems to have hopped on the Rose`
Bandwagon. Truly, this is one wagon we want
to get on! Here are some fun facts about the latest wine
craze. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">The trendy
pink drink is not all that new. Despite its
current popularity, Rose` was first made by the ancient Greeks in 7000 BC. Rose` is a precursor to both red and white
wine.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">While Rose` can
be made using several methods, the simplest explanation is that it is a wine
made with only a portion of the color from its grape skins. Dark red grapes are crushed and left with the
skins and juice to soak together for two to three days. The “must “, (skins and juice), is then
pressed, after which the skins are removed as fermentation continues. The longer the skins remain with the juice,
the darker the color of the final product.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Rosé wines
can be made using any red grape variety including the Marquette Grape grown in
the Harbor Ridge Vineyard. Others are
made with the addition of some white grapes.
This blending introduces all sorts of additional flavors and aromas,
making for an interesting and complex final product. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Rose` wines
range from sweet to very dry and everything in between. The color spectrum includes shades of light
pale pink, bright vibrant pink and every hue of pink in-between. Best served at a white wine temperature (45
degrees), Rose` wines should be consumed within 2-3 years.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Known by the fashionable set as “Summer Water”,
Rose` is a perfectly refreshing warm weather drink. When summer ends, drinking Rose` continues.
Not just for poolside parties, this is an incredibly versatile food friendly
wine. Pair it with tart goat cheeses, pastas,
seafood, salads and spicy ethnic foods.
Enjoy this adaptable wine at summer barbeques, lady’s luncheons and
Thanksgiving dinner.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Harbor Ridge
Winery has two Rose` offerings. Our semi-dry, Double Gold Medal Bouquet Rosé
introduced in 2016 was aptly named. A
blend of Marchel Foch, Sauvignon Blanc and Gewürztraminer, it abounds with
floral and fruity aromas just like a lovely bouquet, then ends with a crisp,
but smooth finish.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">New in 2019,
our dry sparkling Cracklin’ Rose` is crafted with our 2018 estate grown
Marquette Grapes. Effervescent and vivacious
with flavors of strawberry and melon, HRW’s newest offering will remind you
of warm summer days in Door County. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "cambria" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Now that you
are armed with information about our favorite pink drink, we hope you and your
friends will see the world with Rose` in your glasses. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">Now that we’re well into 2018 some of us are still working on
fulfilling our New Year’s resolutions, while others have already abandoned
them.</span><span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">Our resolution is an easy one to
keep. </span><span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">Drink more wine!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">So let’s make it count. How
can drinking wine culminate into an even more enjoyable experience? The perfect wine and food pairing is a start
to greater enjoyment, but what about something that can alter your experience
entirely? What about serving temperature?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">In researching this topic, we found that many wine experts believe
most people drink their red wine a little too warm and white wine much too
cold. Well, why should it really matter,
and should it make that big of a difference? As it turns out, it does make a whole lot of
difference because the temperature of the wine can influence how it smells and
tastes. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">For example, HRW’s dry oak-aged <i>Chardonnay</i> is best appreciated around 55 degrees, where the light
oak taste comes through without dominating the creamy vanilla and spice aromas.
If it was served 10 degrees cooler, none
of those subtle nuances would come through. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">At the same time, the lovely apple and pear aromas of our semi-dry
Pinot Grigio, <i>Three Wise</i> <i>Guys</i>, really stand out when it is served
at 45 degrees. The same goes for our
semi-sweet <i>Gimme One Good Riesling. </i>If
it was served any colder its mouthwatering crisp and fruity flavors would
barely register on the tongue. </span><span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">In fact, if you are serving white wine that is already chilled
you should first take it out of the refrigerator, (which is usually set at or
below 40 degrees), for 15 minutes.</span><span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">As far as reds, a common
misconception is that they must be served at a warm room temperature. It turns
out that red wine aficionados prefer a little chill to their red wine, and suggest
actually chilling red wine in the refrigerator 15 – 20 minutes before uncorking
it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">The lighter reds, (which are often blends, such as <i>Knockin’ Heads Red</i> or <i>Crimes Against Vines)</i>, perform best when
they are at the cooler end of the scale in the low 60’s. In fact, Crimes at 60
degrees will taste semi-sweet, but if chilled at 45 degrees it will taste quite
sweet.</span><span style="color: red; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">To enjoy the rich lushness of <i>Cabernets</i> and <i>Zinfandels</i>,
however, one should serve them at around 62 – 65 degrees. And, if possible, use an aerater, decanter,
or even a wide mouth stemless glass to let these full-bodied reds breathe ahead
of time. This gives them more exposure
to air, which unleashes their aromas and softens tannins, improving their
overall flavor.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">We recently introduced Harbor, a port-style wine, similar to a
Ruby Port.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif";">While many of us have always sipped ports and other fortified
wines at a warmer room temperature it turns out that wine experts recommend
that it be served at a cooler 60 degrees.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="color: #26282a; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">Skeptical? Try your
favorite white and red at these different temperature spectrums and see what
you think. Let us know what you
discover, and above all, enjoy!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: 16.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For
our Cabernet Sauvignon lovers, you’re in for a treat! Harbor Ridge will be uncorking our
long-awaited 2013 Napa Cab in March, the first of our new Ultra-Premium line of
wines. Only 201 cases have been
produced, 15 of which will be placed in Reserve. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 16.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2013
was an excellent year for Cabernet Sauvignon grapes in California’s Napa Valley
and once you taste our new Ultra-premium Cabernet Sauvignon, you’ll surely
agree. Aged to perfection for 30 months
in our French Hybrid oak barrels, it delights the senses with subtle spice and
toasted vanilla aromas. Ripe
elderberries and dark stone fruit flavors swirl along with silky tannins,
leading to a smooth and satisfying finish.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Yes, it may be a little bit cold and possibly snowy this time of year, but it is absolutely beautiful
here. Plus, there are tons of outdoor
activities in which you can soak up the magic and wonder of the peninsula in
winter. Likewise, Door County offers a
myriad of ways to enjoy the indoors.

Quiet. Ahhh…. No long lines anywhere, lodging rates are much lower than during
the tourist season and quite a few businesses stay open all year long. Take Harbor Ridge for instance. We’re open 7 days a week, and during this
time of year it’s wonderful to have a relaxing tasting and not be on a hurried
time schedule. Plus, we miss you and
love having you visit!!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

response to our new wines and urge you to come taste them. All three wines will

<b><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Crimes
Against Vines</span></b><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">, released in late June, was a real labor of
love, as it was the first of our wines to have come from our very own Marquette
grape vines on the property. This tasty
blend of Cabernet Franc and Marquette grapes, sweetened with Door County
cherries, explodes with flavors of raspberry, dark plum, cherry and chocolate,
and finishes with a hint of vanilla. Based on what you’ve been telling us, it’s
a crime to not absolutely love this wine!</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-left: .75in; mso-add-space: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Early July brought <b>Over the Falls</b>, made from the oh, so sweet Niagara grape. Fresh and fruity from start to finish, this
new wine has already become one of our best sellers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; margin-left: .75in; mso-add-space: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">The last of our new wines, <b>Two Rows Make a White</b>, premiered in late July and was an instant
hit with our visitors during the hot summer here in Door County. The yin and yang blend of tart and tropical
Vidal Blanc, and sweetly spicy Gewürztraminer grapes both refresh and tantalize
the taste buds.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">In early 2017 Harbor Ridge Winery, will be releasing our

this different from the rest of our wonderful wines? Simply put, a Premium Select Wine is one that
comes from an exceptional harvest of a specific varietal, aged in either our
hybrid French/ American or Italian Garbelletto oak barrels for at least two
years then bottled and stored several months before serving. Once it is uncorked the end result is a
superior quality wine well worth the wait!</span></div>

always be available in limited quantities.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">The first to premiere will be the <b>Harbor Ridge</b> <b>2013 Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. </b>We’ll
fill you in on a secret: it is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! 2013 was a banner year for Napa Cabernet
Sauvignon grapes, and we aged this sumptuous red for thirty months in our
French/American barrels. We’ll let you
know when it is available for tasting and purchase, so make sure you hightail
it over to the winery or our website when it’s officially available for
sale. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Next up will be our very first Port style wine
made from our own Marquette Grapes, <b>“The
Harbor “</b>. If history is any judge, like the rest of our fine wines, The
Harbor<b> </b>will be yet another
winner. Stay tuned.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="line-height: 150%; margin-left: .75in; mso-add-space: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Lastly, we’ll be adding a new, highly anticipated <b>semi-dry Rose`</b> to our “fun label” line
up sometime in the summer of 2017.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
