Famous Russian artist (sculptor, painter, photographer,etc) will be on the front lawn at Masset Winery to show his works during Stan Fortier's live Blues show. Several pieces of Italian Carrera marble sculpture will be on hand as well as wine themed photos and paintings. Maybe we can talk him into doing a demonstration of his newly invented method wine-color painting! After a late night at the winery, Alexei came up with the idea of using wine rather than water for a new style of painting.

Trousseau Gris
Mutated version of the Trousseau grape found in the Jura region of France. Thought to be the grape misleadingly known as the Grey Riesling in California although it has no relationship with the Riesling cepage. Something of a mystery grape, it may also be the variety known as Bastardo in Portugal and Cabernet Gros in Australia.

After a notable winemaking career with many prominent wineries, Bill Arbios fulfilled a longstanding dream of having his own label with the debut of Arbios Cellars in 1993. Arbios Cellars focuses on a single Bordeaux-style red wine, made from 100 percent Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown in the acclaimed Alexander Valley of Sonoma County. Placing the emphasis on the terroir, Bill believes in honoring the character of the fruit without over-manipulating the wine. The resulting wines are ripe and intense with rich plum and cherry flavors and intriguing notes of olive and earth - a style that has been described as a cross between the new and old world. Arbios Cellars' production has grown from a mere 250 cases of the 1993 vintage to approximately 3000 cases today. The wine is available in major U.S. markets with distribution in numerous high-end restaurants and retail shops.
