The 2022 Pinot Noir Silice Vineyard is transparent and pure. It has detailed aromas of cranberry, pomegranate and tangerine peel, while accents of mossy bark and mushrooms evoke a shady forest. The medium-bodied palate is concentrated and dynamic with flavors that shift from fruit to earth and spice. It has a silky texture, vibrant acidity and a long, spicy finish. It will mature gracefully over the next 10+ years.

"A restrained yet layered wine with aromas of wax, quince, lemons, chalk and leesy savoriness. Medium-bodied, it shows orange flavors on a savory palate and a tannic grip that’s balanced by weight and lifted acidity. Drink now."

93-95 William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Roulot's 2022 Meursault 1er Cru Clos des Bouchères delivers aromas of pear, peach, green apple and orange oil mingled with toasted nuts, white flowers and bread dough. Medium to full-bodied, supple and satiny, it's rich and layered, with a gourmand, charming profile and a long, saline finish.

"From the lowest yields since 2004, the 2015 El Desafio de Jonata smells like a barrel sample with its jammy blackberry, blueberry, cassis, crushed rock and lead pencil aromas and flavors. Rich, mouthfilling, plush and textured, yet with loads of underlying tannin, it's going to be another terrific vintage for this cuvée, yet it needs to be forgotten for 5-7 years. The blend is 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% each of Merlot and Petit Verdot (there’s no Cabernet Franc) aged 20 months in 80% new barrels."

This fresh red leads with rubbed sage and floral notes before joining lively and crisp berry and pomegranate flavors. The generous acidity lifts the flavors onto the finish around firming, gravelly tannins, plus late hints of cherry and herbs. Grenache, Carignane and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2034. 900 cases made.

92 Antonio Galloni - Vinous

The 2022 Gravels is a gorgeous, beautifully balanced wine. The blend of 60% Grenache, 25% Carignane and 15% Mourvèdre works so well. Understated and delicate, with lovely textural depth, the 2022 is very fine. The 100% stems are not that evident in this vintage. Instead, the 2022 speaks to total balance and class.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon China Blue leads with a polished, blue-fruited nose flanked with subtle tinges of tobacco, woody accents and the welcome herbal lift that runs through this roster. The palate is beautiful and decadent while remaining alluring and light on its feet, concluding with a graceful, harmonious and tense finish that gently but persistently swells in dimension with time in the glass. It's a fantastic and unique showing of Happy Canyon Cabernet Sauvignon.

93 Antonio Galloni - Vinous

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon China Blue Vineyard is polished and sensual from the get-go. Crushed flowers and bright red-toned fruit immediately confer freshness and a level of high-toned notes not especially typical of Happy Canyon Cabernets. This is an especially savory and pungent Cabernet. Soft tannins make it a delight to taste, even in its youth.

"The first vintage made at the new facility, the 2020 Echo De Lynch-Bages checks in as 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot that was raised all in once-used barrels. It’s a big, mouth-filling, serious second wine revealing classic Pauillac lead pencil and tobacco notes., plenty of ripe black fruits, velvety tannins, and a great finish. One of the more opulent, expansive wines in the vintage, it has loads to love as well as more than a hint of the style of the Grand Vin."

91 Wine Spectator

This has a nice generous feel, with cassis and damson plum unfurling easily, backed by light floral and iron notes through the fresh finish. Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now through 2033. 10,416 cases made.

"Very rich and elegant, this is loaded with flavors of dried apricot, butterscotch and white chocolate. The long and zesty finish is filed with smoke and toffee." —K.M.

Named for the tractor acquired with the original property in 1973, Shafer's 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon TD-9 blends fruit from the estate with purchased fruit to provide an entry-level Cabernet Sauvignon. A blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 4% Malbec and 3% Petit Verdot, aged in 100% new French oak, it does offer plenty of vanilla and spice shadings to balance the cherry fruit. Full-bodied and velvety-textured, it offers plenty of pleasure for what amounts to a fair price within the Napa scheme of things. With more than 10,000 cases produced, it should be widely available at steakhouses and retail.

The 2022 TD-9 checks in as 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 4% Malbec, and the rest Petit Verdot. It has a juicy, lively, medium to full-bodied style to go with pretty red and black fruits, some spicy wood and floral notes, fine tannins, and a great finish.

90 Antonio Galloni - Vinous

The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon TD-9 is a pretty wine. Crushed flowers, sweet red berry fruit and sweet spice tones are nicely lifted. This is an especially delicate, aromatic Cabernet Sauvignon that shows the lighter structure of the year.

Shimmering notes of orange peel and lemon juice illuminate over the succulent muscovado sweetness, whilst the generous lime acidity cleans the palate in preparation for the next flood of flavours: caramel and dried fig. Never-ending and remarkable.

93 Mark Squires - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"The 1985 Colheita Tawny Port Dalva comes in with 129 grams per liter of residual sugar. This adds a layer or two of depth to the 1994 Colheita reviewed. It is pretty fine. The texture is richer, a bit unctuous, and the finish lingers beautifully. Dribbling waves of caramel and a hint of molasses over the palate, this quickly becomes irresistible. It is nicely balanced, too, easy to drink."

91 Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's the Wine Advocate

A blend of 50% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 15% Meunier, the 2018 Extra-Brut displays a bright, perfumed bouquet with aromas of blanched almond, fresh bread, spring flower, menthol and licorice. Medium to full-bodied, elegant and seamless, it’s vinous with bright acids and a lingering, saline finish. Il should age well over the next five to eight years.
