2007
Aubert - Chardonnay Reuling Vineyard
Another spectacular 2007 Aubert Chardonnay. A bit more restrained and austere than the Ritchie or Lauren vineyard products, with great mineral and acid structure. A lovely, age-worthy effort in a very sophisticated, French style.
2005
Levendi - Cabernet Sauvignon Sweetwater Ranch
A beautifully balanced, delicious cabernet. It's very dark color suggests power and concentration. Yet, surprisingly, this wine is graceful, feminine, plum-y and surprisingly approachable. Seems almost like a pinot noir, but with a slightly rounder, bigger mouthfeel.
2006
Bonhomme, Andre - Macon-Villages
What a surprisingly lovely, young white Burgundy. Dry, well-balanced, supple and extremely food friendly. A fresh, interesting, nicely structured wine. At under $24 a bottle, this is an extraordinary find and a fabulous value!
2000
Terra Valentine - Cabernet Sauvignon Wurtele Vineyard
Lovely fruit, soft tannins, well-integrated and starting to reach its peak.
