Brian Loring throwing his LWC Gang sign for Loring Wine Company. Brian, in addition to being a rock star winemaker, is also a really funny and cool guy. I joked with him that at Noir, we have a wall of his wine. I call it the wall o' Loring.
Curt Schalchlin, wine maker at Sans Liege, a relatively new producer of wild, Rhone-styled wines. His three right now are the 2007 Cotes du Coast, a White blend of Viognier, Rousanne, and Marsanne. (Coincidentally, I got to try the '06 at Bottlerock in Downtown LA recently) The 2006 Offering, a blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre with a touch of Viognier. And the 2006 Grenache, which is simply awesome.

Peter Cargasacchi, holding it down. Cargassachi, in addition to making wines with his own fruit, sells some of the most sought after Pinot Noir out there. He sells to Bonaccorsi, Loring, Pali, and only a few others. And oh yeah, Peter claimed he didn't show up on film.
