Made entirely from Pinot Noir grapes, the 2024 White Pinot Noir has the acidity and brightness of a white wine (and color), with the texture of a red. Lengthy acidity coats the light-bodied frame of spicy raspberry, cherry, and plum fruitiness balanced by spice and sea spray. There's substance to the mouthfeel at low alcohol levels, making it an easy-drinking, food-friendly, chillable-like red, aged in neutral barrels. Drink now.

An undoubtedly full-bodied, well-concentrated wine, the 2023 Pinot Noir Muldune Trail is from a site at 1,600 feet elevation and offers plush, lush, and richly woven black cherry liqueur seasoned in baking spice and toasted oak. The soft midpalate shows the ease of the tannins and the power of the underlying acidity's ability to refresh. Drink now through 2033.

Lemon peel and tangerine-spray aromas make for a bright nose on this bottling that’s layered in earth tones. The palate’s leathery texture frames baked lemon and salted-apple slice flavors.

There’s an aggressive herbaceousness to this bottling that will please those seeking a savory style. Crushed rock, dank herbs, and mossy raspberry aromas lead from the nose into a palate of cranberry, cherry, thyme, and petrol flavors.

The nose of this Pinot delivers aromas of Bing cherry, pomegranate, cedar, and flowers, while the palate shows flavors of fresh berries, roses, barrel spice, and orange peel, with powder-fine tannins and lively acidity peaking through the finish.

The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Christopher's Vineyard is a totally different animal from the 2016 Rockfall, even though these vineyards are only a stone’s throw apart. Muscular, brooding and potent, the 2016 is a dark, intense, primary wine that is a little reticent today. The body and structure are there, but it’s very closed down. I would expect the 2016 to be giving up the goods a bit more at ten years old, but there’s nothing pointing to evolution here. Jury's out as to whether this will ever soften.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Sealift Vineyard is the best of the Pinot Noirs in this range, with an extra measure of concentration that helps the wine get its point across. That said, it’s still a bit reserved, delivering its dark berry fruit, orange peel, lavender and white pepper tones with grace. A breeze of salty acids leaves behind a particularly refreshing sensation. Very nicely done.

The 2022 Cabernet Franc is a new wine in this range, made as an earlier-drinking, more affordable offering than the flagship Cabernets. Mocha, espresso, rich blackberry fruit and underbrush tones saturate in generous layers, all motivated by absolutely mouthwatering acidity. There’s so much concentration here at only 13.6% alcohol. Balanced, fine structure and a lifted, fresh finish are quite attractive. Lovely, especially for the year.

The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon (Knights Valley) delivers a potent, powerful array of crème de cassis, tobacco leaf, sage, cedar and crushed rocks, soaking into the palate with real confidence. The addition of 6% Petit Verdot can be felt in the wine’s chalky, upright structure. While approachable today, the 2022 will likely benefit from some time in the cellar.

The 2023 Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley) is a classic wine from this appellation. Exuberant and fruit-forward in its bouquet, it’s more restrained and cohesive on the palate. Gentle acids and powdery tannins carry the 2023 through the finish, leaving behind echoes of brambly fruit and grilled herbs. It’s another Hartford wine with impressive balance

The 2023 Chardonnay Stone Côte Vineyard shows lovely balance and a sense of roundness that nicely frames its river rock minerality and mid-weight build. Layers of yellow stone fruit, marzipan, chamomile and slate drape gently across the palate, motivated by subtle acids.

The 2023 Chardonnay Three Jacks Vineyard is a classic Russian River Chardonnay presented in a measured, neatly balanced package. Baked apple tart, lemon peel, white flowers and a kiss of sweet French oak embrace the palate with gentle creaminess. A bump of weight in the mid-palate leads to a notably smooth, polished finish.

The 2023 Chardonnay Warrior Princess Block, from Zena Crown Vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills, comes across very Old-World and almost Chenin-Blanc-like. Tense, phenolic and pure, the 2023 unfurls layers of candlewax, wet wool, chalk, mint and green apple as it settles across the palate with a sense of softness and understated creaminess. I like where this sits in the range—it definitely expresses a different style than the rest of the Hartford Chardonnays.

The 2023 Grenache Morning Chorus Vineyard, from a site on Sonoma Mountain, is very young but very promising. Pine, blood orange, lavender and dark cherry tones flesh out across the broad, caressing palate, but a strong toasty oak imprint stands in the way of the wine's definition today. Still, there's great depth of fruit and ample mid-palate heft to make this a joy to drink. A nip of mountain structure on the finish adds a bit of flair.

The 2023 Pinot Noir Truly Rita comes from the Dierberg site in the Sta. Rita Hills. It opens with a tropical-leaning bouquet of passion fruit, guava, ripe raspberry and black tea. It’s finely chiseled but nicely articulated, with a deft balance of body and tannin. The 2023 is a confident, exuberant wine that will benefit from a year or two to calm down.

The 2024 Chardonnay (Russian River Valley) really overdelivers. It’s an ideal expression of the Russian River Valley, with all the bright, sunny orchard fruit and spritzy citrus lift you could hope for, but also an extra measure of freshness and juiciness that leaves the mouth watering. Notably restrained, the 2024 shows excellent finesse, especially for an appellation-level bottling.

The 2023 Zinfandel Jolene's Vineyard is richer and darker than the Russian River bottling, but it’s still undeniably pure. Mocha, blue fruit, cedar and white pepper blossom in the glass. The 2023 feels a little somber today, but it sizzles with an undercurrent of freshness and never feels too heavy.

Fresh apple and zesty curd. Poised, bright, pure, with lifted fruit and a clean, layered texture. Mineral edges with lively acidity add energy. A gentle, refined and balanced

Generous and juicy, with lemon sherbet, pear and lime zest notes complemented by details of toasted green tea, lemon oregano and wet rock minerality. Harmonious and complex on the finish. Drink now. 322 cases made.

A juicy, succulent, medium-bodied wine with aromas and flavors of sweet pears, apples, Meyer lemons and finger limes. Mouthwatering acidity leads to a long finish and a hint of sweet spices at the end. Drink now.

Based on 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot, 2% Merlot, and 1% Cabernet Franc and aged 19 months in 49% new French oak, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley comes from a mix of sites throughout the valley, and total production is down as they continue to focus on quality. Ripe black fruits, hints of cassis, graphite, and dark chocolate define the aromatics, and it's medium to full-bodied, with a pure, layered mouthfeel and ripe tannins. There are 9,843 cases produced, and it will drink beautifully over the coming 10-12 years. Drink 2025-2037.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Willamette Valley is scented of red cherry, blackberry, forest floor and floral potpourri. The medium-bodied palate is silky and bright with concentrated, crunchy flavors and a long, spicy finish. This is dangerously easy to drink!

The 2022 Pinot Noir Estate Vineyard has layered aromas of red cherries and berries, charcuterie, forest floor and well-integrated wafts of baking spice. The medium-bodied palate features bright, crunchy flavors. It’s framed by soft, dusty tannins and has a long, spicy finish.

Matured for six months in stainless steel, the 2024 Viognier has inviting scents of apple, peach, beeswax, citrus blossoms and petrichor. The full-bodied palate pairs concentrated, mouth-coating flavors with surprisingly fresh acidity, and it has a long, nuanced finish. 1,553 cases were made.

The NV Brut Rosé Extended Tirage is composed of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier. Base wines were matured in stainless steel and French oak, and it spent six years en tirage. Disgorged in May of 2024, it has a pale onion-skin color and scents of red apple skin, raspberries and freshly baked bread. The medium-bodied palate offers concentrated, savory flavors and a soft, creamy mousse. Its bright acidity is balanced by two grams of dosage, and it has a long, elegant finish.
