Vinous and reductive in the glass, this shows aromas of violets, red and black cherries and strawberries. Lush fruit on the palate, with a medium body, a supple style, ripe tannins and super-juicy acidity. Easy to drink now, but will improve in complexity in two or three years.

Wild fermentation, a little bit of barrel-aging on lees and a 10% addition of Sémillon in the blend make the 2023 Sauvignon Blanc far from your stereotypical Marlborough style. This wine plays on its clarity, texture and freshness. It's aromatically subtle, with green notes meeting nectarine and blackcurrant. While the region's natural freshness abounds, the wine retains a round shape and natural curve before being sewn up by a thread of acidity. There are layers of interest here that will keep you coming back.

Pale lemon yellow. Quite open in bouquet, with a little lemon confit on the nose. Builds very nicely. Middling in weight and complexity but very attractively made. Drink from 2024-2026. Tasted Mar 2025.

Aromas of limes, grapefruit, green apples and herbs. The palate is mid-weighted with bright acidity, giving a fresh and clean finish. Drink now. Screw cap. Ryan Montgomery Staff Writer & Critic

Aromas of dark cherries, potpourri, river stones and violets. The palate is tightly wound with finely integrated tannins, giving flavors of blueberries, rhubarb and dried herbs. Very structured and pure, with a powerful undertone that will soften with time. Drink or hold.

Coming from a mix of noteworthy sites in the valley and mostly Cabernet (there's some Merlot in the blend, I believe), the 2018 Napa Valley Red Wine sports a dense purple color to go with a full-bodied, opulent, monster of a wine that carries loads of red and black fruits, notes of spiced meats, dried tobacco, and chocolate, ripe tannins, integrated oak, and a wonderfully mouth-filling texture. This is about as opulent and sexy as 2018 gets and it's well worth seeing out. It's going to put a smile on your face any time over the coming 15-20 years.

Poised between fruit and wonderful old gold wood-aging flavors, the wine is rich and relatively sweet. Its dried fruit flavors are balanced by the wine's intense spice and acidity that comes from wood aging. Drink now

This tank sample of the final blend before bottling shows an abundance of ripe, juicy, almost syrupy fruit flavors, from blueberries to blackberries and cherries. It feels soft and plush, tastes warm and broad and adds chocolate and vanilla accents to all the sweet-tasting fruitiness. Drink or hold.

Ripe plums, darker berries, spice, and chocolaty, savory herb notes all emerge from the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley, a nicely textured, medium-bodied, incredibly satisfying Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon that has ripe tannins, plenty of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. It would be hard to find a better value-priced Cabernet Sauvignon in the vintage. Drink 2025-2030.

There are an impressive 20,000 cases of the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon, more than half of which comes from the winery's Rutherford holdings. A blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc 7% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 2% Malbec, all aged 18 months in 55% new French oak, it offers pleasing scents of cedar bark, mocha, vanilla, black cherries and hints of of dill and thyme. In the mouth, this medium to full-bodied offering lacks a bit of richness, but it does exhibit attractive fruit and just enough soft tannins to make it useful at the table.

This wine has density and some firm tannins. A spectacular vineyard that faces the Gironde estuary, this estate gives a rich wine that needs some serious aging. Drink this wine, with its black-currant fruits and solid tannins from 2027.
