    Floral and aromas take the lead in this full-bodied, creamy-textured wine that offers a soft mouth-feel and the roundness that comes from aging on the lees. Concentration in peaches melons and a good viscosity help the wine stand out. (Jim Gordon)

  3. Chalk Hill Sonoma Coast Chardonnay

    2021 / 750 ml. | Item#58798

    WS9393 pts. - Wine & Spirits - 12/22
    William Foley grounded his wine empire in Sonoma County with the purchase of the Chalk Hill Estate in 2010. Michael Beaulac, who joined the team in 2021, produced this wine from other Foley family vineyards in Carneros, Chalk Hill and the Sonoma Coast. In it, he captures the chamomile character of chardonnay, showcasing the variety’s gentle fruit rather than its tropical ripeness. Scents of lemon cream and malt add to the wine’s richness.
    SP9292 pts. - Wine Spectator - Web only – 2022
    Presents pear drop, Fuji apple, ripe Bartlett pear and lemon blossom details that are elegant and restrained, but they weave in and out on a light, fresh frame that’s quite impressive. Gains a savory element, thanks to a touch of toasted sesame seed. Drink now. 98,000 cases made. (MaryAnn Worobiec)

    VN9191 pts. - Vinous - May 2022
    The 2020 Geyserville is quite soft in this vintage. Bright red-fleshed fruit, crushed flowers, cedar, spice and sweet pipe tobacco all grace this mid-weight edition of Geyserville. All things considered, the 2020 is nicely done.

  5. Ridge Pagani Ranch Zinfandel

    2019 / 750 ml. | Item#55977

    JD9494 pts. - Jeb Dunnuck - 7/22/2021
    The deep purple/ruby-hued 2019 Zinfandel Pagani Ranch comes from a site in the Sonoma Valley and is 90% Zinfandel, 6% Petit Sirah, and the rest Alicante Bouschet. Red plums, blueberries, blood orange, and candied violet notes all emerge from this beauty, which is medium to full-bodied and offers an ultra-fine texture, silky tannins, and a great finish. This is one impressive, satisfying Zinfandel to enjoy over the coming 7–8 years. (Jeb Dunnuck)
    SP9393 pts. - Wine Spectator - Jun 30, 2022
    Deeply structured but not weighty, showing black raspberry and blueberry flavors laced with bittersweet chocolate, green peppercorns and fruitcake spices that build tension toward refined tannins. Drink now through 2030. 3,990 cases made. (Tim Fish)

  9. Dehlinger Goldridge Pinot Noir

    2019 / 750 ml. | Item#58953

    WE9696 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 11/1/2021
    Juicy layers of berry and cherry are met by spicy acidity in this deliciously well-made, structured and highly enjoyable wine, grown in the plentiful, generous soils for which it is named. Dusty texture provides a grip that takes on a stone-like minerality and pleasing complexity. (Virginie Boone)
    VN9292 pts. - Vinous - Jan 2022
    The 2019 Pinot Noir Goldridge is a very pretty, delicate wine. Crushed red berry fruit, rose petal, spice and mint all grace this understated, nuanced Pinot Noir from Dehlinger. This is a decidedly gracious style. (Antonio Galloni)
    SP9292 pts. - Wine Spectator - Web only – 2021
    Fruity and open-textured, with luscious spiciness to the red cherry and berry flavors that are bound together by a creamy richness. Floral hints line the finish. Drink now through 2025. 945 cases made. (Kim Marcus)

  10. Kamen Cabernet Sauvignon

    2019 / 750 ml. | Item#59867

    VN9494 pts. - Vinous - Jan 2022
    The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is mostly Martini clone from the core of the estate. A heady, ample wine, the 2019 is endowed with striking opulence. Blackberry jam, chocolate, spice, new leather, licorice and mocha shows tremendous depth. Attractive floral notes emerge with a bit of aeration, adding brightness. The contours are remarkably soft for a young mountain Cabernet. These wines age beautifully, their youthful opulence notwithstanding, so I would not be in a rush here. (Antonio Galloni)
    SP9393 pts. - Wine Spectator - Jul 31, 2022
    Alluring, with steeped plum and cassis notes cruising through, backed by lively licorice snap, bramble and sweet tobacco accents. A long echo of singed alder permeates on the finish. Best from 2023 through 2034. 2,250 cases made. (James Molesworth)

    WE9595 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 11/1/2021
    A hint of stemmy earthiness leads the way to a luxurious, expansive and velvety palate. The acidity is edgy and fresh, lifting the savory and floral components over a rich, complex berry core. (Virginie Boone)
    RP9292 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 3rd Jun 2021
    Medium ruby, the 2019 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley opens with savory scents of cranberry sauce, rhubarb, cherries and violet perfume with earthy and meaty touches. The medium-bodied palate is lushly fruited with a grainy texture, juicy freshness and long, spicy finish. 5,200 cases produced. (Erin Brooks)
    JD9090 pts. - Jeb Dunnuck - 7/22/2021
    Leading off a slew of Pinot Noirs, the 2019 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley reveals a healthy ruby color as well as terrific raspberry and cherry fruits, medium-bodied richness, a supple, elegant mouthfeel, present yet light tannins, and a good finish. It’s charming, and while it drops off slightly on the finish, it’s balanced and satisfying. It should have 7–8 years of longevity. (Jeb Dunnuck)

  12. Bedrock Old Hill Ranch Heritage

    2021 / 750 ml. | Item#59598

    VN9898 pts. - Vinous - Jan 2023
    The 2021 Old Hill Heritage Wine is sensational. What a wine. Deep and beautifully layered, the 2021 is seamless, nuanced and just insanely complete from the very first taste. Absolutely nothing is out of place. Yields were very low, which seems to have simply concentrated the black cherry and plum flavors and ripened the tannins perfectly, all while maintaining the bright acid profile that is such a signature of this historic field blend site. The 2021 is one of the very finest wines I have tasted from Bedrock. It is destined to become a classic. (Antonio Galloni)
    SP9393 pts. - Wine Spectator - Mar 31, 2023
    Potent yet detailed, layered with deep blackberry, grilled anise, pepper, clove and other dusky spices that build power and richness toward broad-shouldered tannins. Approachable now but will be better in a few years. Zinfandel, Grenache, Mataro, Syrah, Petit Sirah and Alicante Bouschet. Best from 2024 through 2031. (Tim Fish)

  13. Ridge Geyserville

    2018 / 750 ml. | Item#51874

    JD9595 pts. - Jeb Dunnuck - May 21, 2020
    A wine that always delivers, the 2018 Geyserville from Ridge comes all from a single vineyard in the Alexander Valley and checks in as 68% Zinfandel, 20% Carignane, 10% Petite Sirah, and the rest Alicante Bouschet. It has a big, cedary bouquet of red and black plums, sandalwood, potpourri, and Asian spices that develops and fills out nicely with time in the glass. This carries to a more medium-bodied Zinfandel that has wonderful purity of fruit, present yet ripe tannins, flawless balance, and a great, great finish. This structured yet ethereal example of this cuvée ranks with the finest vintages to date. Drink it any time over the coming 10–15 years. (Jeb Dunnuck)
    SP9393 pts. - Wine Spectator - Jun 30, 2020
    Robust yet brooding, with multilayered black plum, licorice and Asian five-spice powder flavors that build richness toward big, briary tannins. Zinfandel, Carignane, Petite Sirah and Alicante Bouschet. Best from 2022 through 2030. 10,500 cases made.

  14. Bedrock Bedrock Vineyard Heritage

    2021 / 750 ml. | Item#58794

    VN9696 pts. - Vinous - Jan 2023
    The 2021 Bedrock Heritage Wine is a great expression of this site. Black cherry, chocolate, spice, leather and tobacco are front and center. This dark, virile Zinfandel-based field blend packs a serious punch. There’s plenty of detail and nuance behind all of that intensity. The 2021 is a big wine, but also less monolithic than some previous editions. There’s a bit more whole cluster in the 2021 than in the past, so perhaps that explains the wine’s nuance. The 2021 is one of the best wines I have ever tasted from the Bedrock vineyard, and I say that as someone who is not yet fully convinced of the potential here. (Antonio Galloni)
    SP9494 pts. - Wine Spectator - Mar 31, 2023
    Bold and brooding, this Zin-based blend is a cornucopia of aromas and flavors, with deep blackberry, smoky anise, black pepper, clove and other dusky spice notes that build tension and structure toward broad-shouldered tannins. Hands off for now. Zinfandel, Carignan and Mataro. Best from 2024 through 2032. 800 cases made. (Tim Fish)

  15. Louis M. Martini Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon

    2019 / 750 ml. | Item#38768

    JS9393 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Tuesday, August 9, 2022
    A delicious, savory cabernet with aromas and flavors of dried flowers and cherries. Medium body with round, creamy tannins. Savory and flavorful. Supple. Real cabernet character. Delicious now.
    RP8787 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 31st May 2022
    With 180,000 cases produced and a price tag under $25 (savvy shoppers will be able to find it under $20), consumers shouldn’t overlook Martini’s 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma County, which comes largely from the Gallo-owned properties of Frei Ranch (39%) and Barrel Creek (34%). It offers up bright cassis notes on the nose, plus hints of boysenberry and cherry, while the medium to full-bodied palate is silky and softly dusty on the finish. While it’s less rich and complex than many more expensive Cabernets from Napa and Sonoma, it’s a solid, fruit-forward wine that most readers should find affordable. (Joe Czerwinski)
    SP8787 pts. - Wine Spectator - Web only – 2022
    Direct and solid, with a core of black currant and plum fruit laced liberally with roasted tobacco leaf and vanilla accents. Drink now through 2024. 180,000 cases made. (James Molesworth)
