Blog Post Title:The Devil’s Share Author: Doug B. Date: June 8th, 2008 Why I Chose This: I am sure a majority of you are going to be at New Years Eve parties tonight, and it is inevitable that the well-known martini glass will have a presence.

J Vineyards sports an ambitiously schizophrenic line-up of fine beverages ranging from elegant bubbles to complex table wine to the delectable pear liqueur. The space-age green bottles are as inspired as the liquid refreshments that they contain, and upon entering the equally space-age tasting room at the winery in Sonoma County’s Healdsburg, it is clear that these people mean business.
