<\/a>At our house, we are uncorking a memorable bubbly from J Winery<\/a> & Vineyards in California’s glorious Sonoma Valley. We first visited the winery outside Healdsburg about 10 years ago, a pleasant jaunt from San Francisco, where we were visiting my brother-in-law, the artist Daniel Dallabrida<\/a>. We brought back a bottle of J Cuvee Brut for a party he was giving to introduce his East Coast kin to West Coast friends.<\/p>\n
