Typically ripe and buttery, this textbook California Chardonnay shows nice nuances of toast, dough and nutmeg in addition to ripe pears and cream. It's a tasty, crowd-pleaser that will suit many occasions.

Spicy oak and good fruit concentration are the hallmarks of this full-bodied, almond and honey-scented wine that charms you with its restraint and rather mature-tasting complexity. A lingering finish suggests sipping after the meal as well as during.

Aromatic and supple, it's easy to get swept away by the floral, sandalwood, incense, strawberry and cherry aromas and flavors of this red. Charming and lively, with the balance and expression to enjoy now. Features fine length. Best from 2025 through 2042. - Bruce Sanderson

An elegant, subdued red, offering black cherry, black currant, violet and sweet spices. Gaining depth from smoke and mineral hints, this is balanced and fades gracefully on the lingering finish. Drink now through 2032. - Bruce Sanderson

A well-defined red, with cherry, strawberry, sandalwood and mineral flavors fused to a linear frame. Gaining support from lively acidity and dense tannins, this feels balanced overall, with a resonant aftertaste. Best from 2026 through 2045. - Bruce Sanderson
Score: 93 | May 31, 2023 | Wine Spectator
A focused, even racy red, whose blackberry, black cherry, earth and spice notes are fused to the linear frame. Shows fine concentration, balance and length, yet needs some time to unwind. Best from 2026 through 2043. - Bruce Sanderson
Score: 93 | May 31, 2023 | Wine Spectator
Sweet sawdust and vanilla notes mingle with black cherry and blackberry flavors in this silky, polished red, whose tannins are soft and balanced with fine acidity, ending with a lingering finish of tomato leaf and oak spice. Best from 2025 through 2042. - Bruce Sanderson
Score: 92 | May 31, 2023 | Wine Spectator
Rich and juicy, offering cherry, raspberry and spice flavors that coat the palate, while earth and tobacco accents add detail. Features a line of fine tannins underneath but, for now, this is all about fleshy fruit. Shows fine harmony, polish and length. Best from 2024 through 2037. - Bruce Sanderson
