In keeping with the season, Ruiz has
created a new craft cocktail he calls Golden
Fields, which utilizes Johnnie Walker
Black, Jura wine, corn anglaise and lemon.
Located between Burgundy and Switzerland,
the Jura region of France—where the wine
is created—offers a uniquely cool climate
for oenology. "Jura wines are distinct and
unusual wines. The most famous [is] Vin
Jaune, which is made using a process
similar to sherry, developing under a flor-
like strain of yeast. This is made from the
local savagnin grape variety," he explained.
Some of Ruiz's favorite ingredients for fall
include: blood oranges, root vegetables
and his personal favorite, chicha morada, a
purple corn native to Peru.
