Matanzas Creek
2015 Sauvignon Blanc Sonoma County
88 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2015 Sauvignon Blanc (Sonoma County) is fresh, vibrant and very pretty. Lemon peel, grapefruit, mint and white flowers are nicely delineated throughout in this brisk, vibrant Sauvignon Blanc. Best of all, the 2015 is a terrific value.

La Crema
2014 Pinot Noir Bennett Valley
88 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

La Crema's 2014 Pinot Noir, from a late-ripening estate vineyard in Bennett Valley, comes across as a bit compact, with less depth and mid-palate pliancy than some of the other wines in the range, partly owing to the micro-climate in this site. Blood orange, spice and red-toned fruit nuances add aromatic complexity throughout.

La Crema
2014 Pinot Noir Green Valley
88 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2014 Pinot Noir Green Valley is supple and forward, with good juiciness to the fruit and lovely overall balance. Sweet red cherry, plum, rose petal and mint are all pushed forward in this tasty, mid-weight offering from La Crema.

La Crema
2014 Pinot Noir Monterey
88 Points James Laube, Wine Spectator

Deftly balanced. Though smoky oak notes hold the upper hand for now, there's plenty of well-centered plum and black cherry flavors to fill out the palate.

La Crema

Kendall-Jackson
2015 Jackson Estate Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast

The 2015 Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast) is an attractive, mid-weight offering. Bright red cherry, hard candy, wild flowers and sweet spices are all pushed forward in this succulent Pinot Noir from vineyards in the Petaluma Gap.

Kendall-Jackson
2015 Grand Reserve Pinot Noir
88 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2015 Pinot Noir Grand Reserve is laced with sweet red cherry, spice, flowers and dried herbs. Supple and open-knit, with lovely inner perfume, the 2015 is best enjoyed over the next year or two, while the flavors remain bright.

Kendall-Jackson
2015 Avant Chardonnay
88 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2015 Chardonnay Avant is soft, open-knit and easy to drink. Candied lemon peel, pineapple white flowers and sweet spice give the wine much of its immediacy. The Avant is done entirely in stainless steel, with partially blocked malolactic fermentation to keep the flavors bright.

Kendall-Jackson
2015 Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay
88 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

Kendall-Jackson's flagship 2015 Chardonnay Vintner's Reserve is a model of consistency. Soft, supple and open-knit, with lovely tropical fruit, white flower and butter notes, the Vintner's Select is a pretty wine to drink over the next 2-3 years.

Hartford Court
2015 Land's Edge Vineyards Pinot Noir
88 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2015 Pinot Noir Land's Edge Vineyards is dark, powerful and brooding. Game, smoke, tobacco and large-scaled tannins give the Land's Edge a slightly burly feel. There is good depth, but this is a pretty rustic style.

Hartford Court
2015 Chardonnay Russian River Valley
88 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2015 Chardonnay (Russian River) is a very pretty appellation-level wine. Apricot pit, peach and stone fruit notes abound in a supple, mid-weight Chardonnay that captures plenty of the open-knit style that is typical of the Russian River.

Novy Family Wines
2015 Carlisle Vineyard Zinfandel
87-89 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2015 Zinfandel Carlisle Vineyard is another intense 2015 Zinfandel from Siduri. Plum, black cherry and chocolate notes infuse the 2015 and give it much of its darkness and textural richness.

Novy Family Wines
2015 Limerick Lane Vineyard Zinfandel
87-89 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2015 Zinfandel Limerick Lane Vineyard is rich, powerful and seductive. Incredibly primary at this stage, today the 2015 is all about fruit, while the more typical earthy and savory notes that are typical of this site still need time to develop. The dark red cherry and plum flavors are nicely pushed forward, and there is good tannic grip in the background.

Kendall-Jackson
2014 Grand Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
87-89 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Grand Reserve is dark, dense and powerful. Tasted from tank just prior to bottling, the 2014 looks like it is going to need at least six months in bottle to come into its own. There is no shortage of power or intensity today.

Kendall-Jackson
2015 Jackson Estate Chardonnay Sonoma Coast
87-89 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2015 Chardonnay Sonoma Coast is quite rich and ample in feel, with a bit more richness and tropical character than is typical for coastal Chardonnays. Taken on its own terms, the wine is attractive, but readers should expect a fairly unctuous style.

Novy Family Wines
2015 Zinfandel Russian River Valley
87 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2015 Zinfandel (Russian River Valley) is dark, plump and juicy, all of which make it a good choice for drinking now and over the next year or two. Black fruit, chocolate and cloves contribute to an impression of darkness and, at times, also heaviness.

La Crema
2014 Fog Veil Pinot Noir
87 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

Soft contours and supple fruit give the 2014 Pinot Noir Fog Veil much of its distinctive personality. Sweet spice and dried floral notes add an attractive upper register in this pretty, appealing Pinot from La Crema.

Kendall-Jackson
2015 Vintner's Reserve Syrah
86 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2015 Syrah Vintner's Reserve is a tasty, forward wine. Black cherry, lavender, mint, violet and black pepper add aromatic nuance, but this is a bold, fruit-driven style.

Cambria
2015 Clone 4 Chardonnay (SOE)
91 Points Wilfred Wong, Wine.com

Medium straw color; ripe apple, a touch of peach skin. Light citrus, and creaminess in the aroma; medium bodied, nicely layered on the palate; dry, medium acidity, fine balance; ripe fruit flavors, light hit of creaminess; medium finish. This Chardonnay does an excellent job in representing the prime, cooler regions for this grape in the Central Coast.

Freemark Abbey
2013 Cabernet Bosché
99 Points Rich Cook, Wine Review Online

A flagship wine -- one of Napa Valley's heritage wines -- that simply stuns with depth and staying power with the 2013 vintage. Classic in every sense of the word, it's a wine that I hesitate to give a list of descriptors on. If you'd like to taste a true benchmark wine of the region, this is a great place to start. I dare say it's a bargain at this price. Ted Edwards has been doing this for a long time, and this might be his ne plus ultra moment. Spectacular!
