Made in the style of Monticello's 2008s, a ripe, softly delicious wine. It packs lots of berry, cherry, currant and chocolate fruit, with a savory earthiness suggesting green olives. Flashy enough to…
John Kinney is doing great things with Livermore Valley fruit, most especially with many of his whites, including this classically oaked Fumé Blanc, the grapes barrel-fermented in 100% French oak (Se…
Translucent, fresh aromatics, like green pears glimpsed through clear water, characterize this wine. There's also an herbal edge of fresh, green foliage on this slender and refreshing wine. The limpi…
Minty cedar and red raspberry jam provide a freshness to this medium-built wine, subtle in spice and made in a soft, approachable style. Cherry and cinnamon round out the lengthy finish.
An earthy wine that offers complexity around a full-bodied juiciness of blackberry and bitter black tea, this is made in a big style and will appeal to fans of concentration and decisive use of oak.

The Cambres vineyard sits on the hills just to the south of the Douro river, giving a rich, perfumed style of wood-aged wine. This is structured, with a dry core and big black fruits that will soften…
A wine that already shows some of the typical oxidative character of Savagnin. It creates a wine that has great style, richness and wonderful tangy, smoky character. It could age further, although it…
