The United States is a bit of a latecomer to the international wine scene. In the colonial and post-colonial eras, the wine industry was tiny and continued as such until the early 20th century, when California emerged as the dominant force in North American wine production. That quickly came to a halt with Prohibition, however, an ill-advised experiment that lasted from 1920 until 1932. Following repeal, California had to recreate its wine industry, a process that took a good 40 years to get up to speed. More

101 Wine Co. (Jonata) Pinot Noir California The Paring 2008 (308004)

750ml

$24.99

In stock, 12+ available

The owners of Napa's legendary Screaming Eagle vineyard recently launched 101 Wine Company (dba Jonata), a new winery in the Santa Ynez Valley. The Paring wines are made from the younger vines that aren't quite ready for the Jonata label.

Robert Parker on Jonata: "This remarkable Santa Ynez estate is under the same ownership as Napa Valley’s Screaming Eagle winery. While well-known Bordeaux consultant, Michel Rolland, and Screaming Eagle’s winemaker, Andy Erickson, play important roles at Jonata, the people most responsible for the quality of the wines are owners Charles Banks, Stan Kroenke, and winemaker Matt Dees. Jonata’s debut vintage, the 2004s, were somewhat of a work in progress, but the 2005s convincingly established what compelling wines were about to emerge... this is one of California’s most exciting new wineries."

750ml

$14.99

IWC 89

In stock, 12+ available

89 points Josh Raynolds (International Wine Cellar): "Green-tinged gold. Impressively complex bouquet evokes pear, Meyer lemon, iodine, smoked meat and toasty lees; this has the nose of a much more expensive wine. Fleshy pear and floral honey flavors are deep and a touch warm, picking up refreshing lime and dusty minerals on the finish. An outstanding value. (Apr 2008)"

A to Z Chardonnay Oregon 2008 (307852)

750ml

$14.99

In stock, 12+ available

Producer notes: "The 2008 A to Z Oregon Chardonnay has an expansive aromatic profile of lime blossoms, wet stones, lemon honey, tangerine, guava, granny smith apple and brioche. In the mouth, the wine is bright and intense with good complexity and balance between acid and richness. Classic Oregon steely Chardonnay with a long, clean finish with lingering mineral and citrus notes."

A to Z Pinot Noir Oregon 2008 (307832)

750ml

$16.99

IWC 87

In stock, 12+ available

List $20.00

87 points Josh Raynolds (International Wine Cellar): "[$20 list] Bright red. Initially reduced nose opens to display red berry and cracked pepper scents, plus a subtle note of dried rose. Light-bodied, tangy raspberry and cherry skin flavors are firmed by bright acidity and offer good straightforward appeal. Finishes slightly tart, leaving white pepper and bitter cherry notes behind. (Jul/Aug 2010)"

Producer notes: "The 2008 A to Z Oregon Pinot Noir reveals all of the depth, concentration and beauty of the 2008 vintage. Deeply colored with aromas of minerals, red and black cherries, and spice, the wine opens in the mouth with rich, red and blue fruits, dark spice and dusty tannins. Great ripe acidity and tannic structure bring balance to this classic, succulent, intense wine, perhaps the most beautiful Pinot Noir we have made."

Abeja Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley 2006 (304784)

750ml

$42.99

WS 91

In stock, 12+ available

91 points Wine Spectator: "Ripe, supple and expressive, offering a mouthful of tobacco-accented cherry, currant and floral aromas and flavors that sail effortlessly over modest tannins into the long, balanced finish. Drink now through 2014. 2,800 cases made. (6/15/09)"

San Francisco Chronicle: "A more toast-dominant profile right now than its 60 percent new oak would suggest. But there's cocoa and coffee nuance to it, and a suave kirsch tone amid lots of notably ripe blackberry. Very stylish, but well done. (8/9/09)"

Abreu Cabernet Sauvignon Madrona Ranch Napa Valley 2005 (306652)

$339.99

RP 96

In stock, 1 available

List $400.00

96+ points Robert Parker: "[$400 list] The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Madrona Ranch is an extraordinary wine that has a European structural profile imposed on the incredibly rich, pure fruit of Napa. Incense, creme de cassis, licorice, toasty oak, and spring flowers are all present in the complex aromatics. In the mouth, the wine is full-bodied, very rich in extract and depth of concentration, but there is a beautiful delineation because of the structural aspects and the sweet tannins, which are present but never aggressive. This is a beauty that should hit its stride in 5-7 years and last for three decades-plus. (Dec 2008)"

Abreu Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Madrona Ranch 2002 (301218)

750ml

$299.00

RP 98

In stock, 1 available

98 points Robert Parker: "The 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Madrona Ranch has turned out better out of bottle than it was from cask. An extraordinary expression of Cabernet Sauvignon with ethereal notes of Asian spice, white flowers, creme de cassis, licorice, blackberries, and roasted espresso, the wine cascades over the palate with no hard edges. Extraordinarily pure, rich, and sweet with everything in perfect proportions and integrated impeccably, this is a monumental Cabernet Sauvignon with complexity, finesse, and amazing balance. It should drink well young but keep for 20 or more years. This is a prodigious effort from Napa’s top viticulturalist - a man who has had an enormously positive impact on the quality of the finest wines of Napa Valley. (Dec 2005)"

Abreu Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley Thorevilos 2000 (307122)

RP 92

In stock, 3 available

92 points Robert Parker: "The first release from the 20-acre Thorevilos Vineyard (co-owned by David Abreu and Ric Forman) is the 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon Thorevilos, a blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot. It is a dense, sweet, black currant-flavored effort with hints of scorched earth, cedar, and flowers in the background. Fruit-driven (mostly blue and black fruits), with a Pomerol-like succulence/lushness, it should drink well young, and evolve for 15+ years. (Dec 2003)"

Abreu Rothwell Hyde Napa Valley 2002 (307121)

750ml

$149.00

In stock, 2 available

Robert Parker (Parker's Wine Buyer's Guide, 7th ed.): "David Abreu is the world-class viticulturist for many of Napa Valley's best-run vineyards, and is an uncompromising perfectionist whose 'take no prisoners' policy and demanding formula for producing top-quality fruit does not always sit well with some people. However, for those seeking great wines, Abreu is the real deal. These are as good as Napa Cabernet Sauvignons can be...monumental examples of wines that will last 25 to 30 or more years. (2008)"

50% Merlot, 37% Petit Verdot, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petit Sirah, 1% Malbec and 1% Cabernet Franc. Rich in color with beautiful floral aromas on the nose and supple, plummy fruit on the palate. 1,816 cases produced.

Alexander Valley Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley 2007 (305661)

750ml

$16.99

RP 87

In stock, 12+ available

List $20.00

87 points Robert Parker: "Another top value, the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon offers spicy, cedary, black currant notes intermixed with hints of roasted herbs and smoke. Medium-bodied with excellent fruit, good purity, and an adequate finish, it can be drunk over the next 2-3 years. (Aug 2009)"

Producer notes: "In the glass, the 2007 Estate Cabernet displays big aromas of black cherry, cassis, cocoa powder and plum and flavors of cassis, black cherry and plum along with soft, integrated tannins. This is certainly a great wine to serve with beef, whether braised short ribs or a Tuscan steak rubbed with olive oil and rosemary."

Alexander Valley Vineyards Chardonnay Estate 2007 (302976)

750ml

$14.99

In stock, 8 available

Maggie and Harry Wetzel bought a large chunk of the Cyrus Alexander homestead in 1962, raised livestock, and in a fit of perspicacious prescience planted grapes (they were among the first in the Alexander Valley to do so) and built a small winery. Their oldest son Hank produced the family's first wine in 1975. Over the years production has grown to about 100,000 cases, and AVV has become known for outstanding wines at extremely fair prices. The '07 Estate Chardonnay was two-thirds stainless steel fermented, the remainder in barrel. Fruit forward, with notes of citrus and tropical fruits, the oak is handled subtly, with the whole package being a model of harmony and balance.

CG 87

In stock, 12+ available

List $18.00

87 points Connoisseurs' Guide: "A solid sense of ripe-apple fruit underlies both toast and a touch of herbs in the nose and is reiterated as the directing feature of this wine's rounded, moderately rich flavors. Plump, frontal and friendly with the faintest suggestion of sweetness, the wine is not among the more complex Chardonnays to be had, but it is a tasty, well-fruited drink that is priced for guilt-free enjoyment. GOOD VALUE. (Apr 2010)"

WE 87

In stock, 12+ available

List $20.00

87 points Wine Enthusiast: "[$20 list] A lovely Merlot, soft and supple. Shows a fine balance of cherry fruit, herbs and sweet oak, with modest alcohol and dusty tannins. Very nice and elegant. (Dec 2009)"

Producer notes: "Anyone who thinks Merlot is a lightweight has never tried this one. The 2007 is a well-structured wine with the kind of characteristics often ascribed to Cabernet. Those characteristics are the result of the unique qualities of the five vineyards on the valley's southern end that provided the fruit for the 2007. The heavier soils in each of the vineyard sites allowed the fruit to ripen slowly and develop a wide range of flavors. What you will find here is a lush Merlot with aromas of black cherry, plum, blackberry and cassis. In the glass are big flavors of plum, vanilla and dark cherry. On those occassions when you are about to reach for a Cab to serve with a particular dish, try this Merlot. You'll be surprised how good a partner it is."

Alexander Valley Vineyards Zinfandel Alexander Valley "Sin Zin" 2007 (306667)

750ml

$15.99

In stock, 12+ available

List $20.00

Producer notes: "The 2007 is a classic Alexander Valley Zinfandel. In the glass, you'll find generous aromas of black cherries, blueberries, vanilla and spice. The big fruit notes are apparent right at the front end. The hefty flavors of cherries and plums carry this wine right through the mid-palate, paving the way for a lengthy finish, where a touch of spicy oak rears its head."

Altamura Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2006 (308042)

WS 94

RP 94

In stock, 12+ available

94 points Wine Spectator: "A brilliant 2006, with gorgeous, rich, supple and juicy blackberry-laced Cabernet flavors that are bold and intense, yet supple and refined, with complex mocha, roasted herb, espresso and anise flavors that combine power with finesse. Drink now through 2020. Highly Recommended. (5/31/10)"

94 points Robert Parker: "The 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) possesses aromas of creme de cassis, white chocolate, espresso roast, dusty, loamy soil, and a full-bodied structure. With rich, powerful flavors that cascade over the palate as well as beautiful purity and depth, it will be even better with another 2-4 years of cellaring, and is capable of lasting 20-25 years. (Dec 2009)"

RP 92

In stock, 11 available

92 points Robert Parker: "The dark plum/ruby-hued, seductive 2006 Sangiovese exhibits notes of sweet cigar tobacco intermixed with plums, balsamic, strawberries, and black cherries. Round, generous, medium to full-bodied, and disarming, it should be consumed over the next 4-6 years. (Dec 2009)"

Altamura Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley 2007 (306289)

WS 92

RP 90

In stock, 3 available

List $48.00

92 points Wine Spectator: "[$48 list] Opulent, and very expressive, delivering a very smooth, rich texture and flavors that just explode with ripeness. Lemon bar, orange marmalade, lemon verbena and juicy pineapple join fragrant hints of smoke, mineral and honeycomb. Despite the richness, a juicy acidity keeps the flavors bright and lively. Drink now. 500 cases made. (8/31/10)"

90 points Robert Parker: "The wood aging is not apparent when tasting the 2007 Sauvignon Blanc, although it does possess more texture and depth than most Napa Sauvignons. It offers hints of nectarines, exotic melons, honeysuckle, grapefruit, and orange blossoms in its medium-bodied, delicious, textured, dry personality. Enjoy it over the next several years. (Dec 2009)"

Alysian Chardonnay RRV Cresta Ridge Vineyard Taurin Block 2007 (308096)

750ml

$34.99

CG 91

In stock, 12+ available

91 points Connoisseurs' Guide: "From the very first sniff through to its long, crisply balanced finish, this vital, carefully structured young wine exhibits a particularly fine sense of proportion as regards its mix of perfectly ripened apples, toast and creamy oak. As rich as it may be, however, it possesses a real sense of refinement and grace, and, while there should be no absolutely doubts about its ability to grow into better with time, we admit that it will be tempting to pull a few corks early on. (Nov 2009)"

Producer notes: "Purchased and developed by Gary & Debbie Farrell in 1999, Cresta Ridge Vineyard is highly coveted for its cool, Green Valley location and highly desirable Goldridge soils. The 'no expense spared' approach to development, included matching devigorating rootstocks with low-yielding clones and close vine-spacing; 'stressing' the plants into producing small quantities of very high quality fruit. Wines produced from the Taurin Block (Gary’s favorite) have proven successful, receiving 90+ ratings year after year.

Tasting notes: Classic aromas of fresh lemon grass, citrus and green apple exude from this brilliantly clean wine. On the palate, flavors mirror aromatics, but are infused with a classic, elegant minerality and subtle spicy-oak nuances. This wine is built on a platform of structural integrity; and while its generous fruit profile always commands center stage, it is the supporting acidity and lower alcohol that allows that fruit to build and retain its "leading role" through the long, refreshing finish. Aged in 100% French oak (45% new) for 10 months. 50% ML fermentation (in barrel). 14.1% alc. 469 cases produced."

Alysian Pinot Noir RRV Hallberg Vineyard Crossroads 2007 (308098)

750ml

$48.99

In stock, 2 available

List $55.00

PinotFile: "[$55 list] 14.2% alc., pH 3.41, 230 cases. Hallberg Vineyard is located in the Green Valley AVA. This vineyard was developed in 2000 by Kirk Lokka, a skilled viticulturist. Dijon clones 777 and 828. 100% destemmed. Aged 14 months in 45% new French oak barrels. Shy dark stone fruit aromas emerge slowly in the glass offset by scents of oak and toasted brioche. With patient swirling, a tasty array of earth-infused blackberry and plum fruit emerges backed by a hint of lemon zest most evident on the crisp finish. A big-boned wine balanced nicely by lively acidity and very silky in the mouth. Tasted much better 8 hours later. (6/10/10)"

Producer notes: "Hallberg Vineyard is ideally situated in the Green Valley sub-appellation of the Russian River Valley just north of Sebastopol. This area is highly desirable for Pinot Noir cultivation due to its cool, breezy climate and prized Goldridge sandy-loam soils. Many of the region's most respected and decorated vineyards reside in this area. This vineyard was developed 10 years ago by Kirk Lokka, one of Sonoma County's most dedicated and highly skilled viticulturists. His commitment has always been clear... to grow the highest quality fruit possible at any cost. While his fruit is some of the most costly in the region, it is always among the best.

Tasting notes: Deep, succulent blackberry-blueberry aromas lead to rich and expansive dark-fruit flavors, which are framed by lavish oak and mediumfirm tannins. Though this wine never strays from its varietal identity, it displays a bit more extract and substance than is typical of our style. This is certainly not a negative, as all that flamboyance is kept in check beautifully by modest alcohol, low pH and generous acidity. This would be an ideal companion to lamb or spicy meat dishes. Barrel aged 14 months in 100% French oak (45% new). 14.2% alc. 230 cases produced."

Alysian Pinot Noir RRV Russian River Selection 2007 (308097)

750ml

$34.99

CG 91

In stock, 5 available

List $48.00

91 points Connoisseurs' Guide: "[$48 list] Gary Farrell is the hand behind the new Alysian label, and the wines predictably sport the restraint and refinement that have traditionally been Mr. Farrell's forte. This rich, but decidedly lively, bottling displays ample red-cherry fruit and is deftly highlighted throughout with creamy oak. While it is arguably just a touch tight at the finish, its firmness in no way implies thinness, and there is real potential for four or five years of very positive growth. (Oct 2009)"

Producer notes: "Alluring scents of lavender, blueberry and spice lead to cascading flavors of dark berries, pomegranate and wild plum. Flavors continue to build and intensify on the palate, and though blackberry/raspberry fruit remains the focus, spice and lavish oak elements add amazing depth and richness to the experience. It’s the finish, however, that ultimately substantiates the wine’s credibility; as correct tannins and crisp acidity provide the structural integrity and balance required for long-term cellaring and a refreshing, vibrant finish. Aged in 100% French oak (45% new) for 10 months. ML fermentation in barrel. 14.2% alc. 1,524 cases produced."

Amavi Cabernet Sauvignon Walla Walla Valley 2006 (302866)

750ml

$26.99

In stock, 1 available

Walla Walla's Amavi Cellars is the brainchild of Ray Goff, a refugee from the world of industrial beer (think Budweiser). Partner and winemaker Jean-Francois Pellet has worked everywhere from Heitz Cellars in Napa to Spain to his native Switzerland. Their efforts are largely Cabernet-centric, and quite successful at that, as this 2006 attests. Comprised of 76% Cabernet, 18% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Franc, and even 5% Syrah, from grapes grown at some of Walla Walla's premier vineyard sites (Pepper Bridge and Seven Hills, to name two), this is complex, nuanced, with layers of dark chocolate and subtle oak spice. Richly textured, soft and pliant, the tannins are sufficiently refined to deliver as early as, well, now!

Ancien Chardonnay Carneros 2005 (300385)

750ml

$21.50

In stock, 1 available

Producer notes: "Layers of forward fruit, complex nuances of yeast and barrel, and a striking minerality that is seldom seen in California Chardonnay. This combines with structure and balanced acidity that promises further development over time."
