2008 Anaheim/OC Travel Guide - (Page 44) DINING OC PROFILE: hael Jordan, Sommelier Mic Michael Jordan, a Southern California restaurateur veteran, is the heart and soul of Napa Rose restaurant in Disney’s Grand California Hotel. We spoke to him about the incredible cuisine and wine that OC has to offer. Q: What is the quintessential OC dish/recipe/food and why? A: Something light and fresh with local spiny lobsters and California avocados and citrus (perfect for a coastal-style chardonnay). Or a hearty, country-style, comforting dish like braised short ribs of prime grade beef, from local Newport Meat Co., with a Central Coast syrah or Sonoma County old vine zinfandel. Wow! Q: What wine choices do we have at our disposal here in OC, and how is that unique? A: We actually have several small artisan wineries here in the OC, but California is home to almost every wine grape varietal now. We’ve been blessed with great vintages for 10 years. Q: What words would you use to describe California wines? A: Ripe, luscious fruit! Ready to drink! You can taste the sunshine in these wines. They are rich, smooth and velvety, ripe and delicious. We are so fortunate to have the warm climate and endless hours of sunshine to ripen the grapes to perfection, but also to have cooler valleys and coastline so there is a long ripening season, giving great complexity to the grape and the wines. Q: What new foods are being paired with wines these days? A: Asian flavors are great with Albarino, Riesling and sauvignon blanc. OC is home to many great Vietnamese and Thai restaurants that feature live crab and lobster picked fresh from the tank — these are great with the clean, bright white wines. And there is a real trend toward wine country-style cooking, with a blend of Cal-Med flavors [that] go with great pinot noir, syrah, Grenache and zinfandel. Q: What’s the best thing about living in the OC? We have it all here! The Riviera-style coastline, the warmth, the fresh produce, seafood, dairies with artisan cheese, winemakers and some of the world’s greatest chefs to prepare it for you. Courtesy of the AOCVCB
