1999 Grand Reserve Chardonnay
85 Points Editor, Wine Enthusiast Magazine 85

From this very noble vintage comes a bottling that is softer than the Camelot bottling but no less rich and fruity. Filled with tremendous fruit flavors --apples and peaches specifically -- all ultraspicy, cinnamon notes from both the grape and the oak. Made in the fashionable style, round and sweet...

Nicely focused apple, vanilla, quince, and fig flavors integrate with toasty oak character turn ample on the finish. Drink now.

1999 Single Vineyard Series Camelot Vineyard Chardonnay
85 Points Editor, Wine Enthusiast Magazine 85

From one of the best Chardonnay regions in the state, a cool-climate wine with pronounced peach, apple and tropical fruit flavors and a blast of zesty, spicy, smoky oak. Clean and crisp, with a creamy, rich texture. Finishes with a vanilla note.

1998 Single Vineyard Series Paradise Vineyard Chardonnay

Simple flavors of corn silk and grape skin make this a good match for paella. Or pick up on the sweet roasted carrot and white corn with a bowl of posole.

1998 Grand Reserve Chardonnay

Warm flavors of malt and wheat beer round the front of the mouth, then the flavors turn to fresh grapes, crisp and leaner, with a mouthwatering acidity. An elegant accompaniment to poached salmon.

1996 Single Vineyard Series Paradise Vineyard Chardonnay

Deep yellow straw cast. Moderately full-bodied. Full acidity. Highly extracted. Minerals, citrus. Crisp, lean and intense with a subtle yeasty overtone. Finishes in a vibrant manner.

1996 Grand Reserve Chardonnay
85 Points Robert M. Parker Jr., Robert Parker Wine Advocate 85

...a well made, lighter-styled wine. I particularly admired its citrusy, tangerine, tropical fruit flavors that are presented in a pure, crisp, medium-bodied style.

1996 Camelot Vineyard Chardonnay

Bright yellow straw cast. Moderately full-bodied. Low acidity. Moderately extracted. Heavily oaked. Brown spices. Forward aromas are dominated by oak. A big, oaky style with substantial texture…...

Spicy and lively, with honey, pear and vanilla flavors that are focused and harmonious.

2006 Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay
85 Points Steve Heimoff, Wine Enthusiast Magazine

A finish of sugary sweetness marks this Chard. It was grown in prime coastal regions, which accounts for the crisp acidity and long hangtime flavors of pineapples, green apples, Meyer lemons, kiwi fruit and spicy oak.

2006 Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay
85 Points Charles Olken, Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine 85 points - Good Value

Bright, fresh, maybe a touch candied in an appley, lemony sort of way, this wine is very easy on the palate and holds onto that frontal, sweet fruit from front to back. Even a touch of coarse edge at the end does not detract from its attractiveness.

2005 Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay
85 Points Steve Heimoff, Wine Enthusiast Magazine

The wine that made America fall in love with Chardonnay is still semi-sweet, with a treasure trove of tropical fruit and spice flavors, boosted with creamy oak barrel influence, that's pretty irresistible at this price. Now sourced exclusively from coastal counties, the wine shows a brisk, citrusy acidity.

2004 Grand Reserve Chardonnay
85 Points Charles Olken, Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine

This mild and rather minimalist wine is drawn along slightly smaller lines in most respects, but it is clean, flirts with a bit of green apples and is reasonably crisp in basic balance.

2003 Grand Reserve Chardonnay
85 Points Steve Heimoff, Wine Enthusiast Magazine

There are some apple and peach flavors in this wine, and also a strong citrusy note that lends acidic brilliance to the mouthfeel. There's also an earthy, tobaccoey flavor.

2003 Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay
85 Points Editor, Wine Enthusiast Magazine 85

A clean, correct California Chardonnay, reliable as ever. Pear, peach and citrus flavors go down easily buffered by graham crackery spice.

Hartford Court
1996 Arrendell Vineyard Pinot Noir
85 Points Editor, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar 85

Medium red. Cherry, cranberry, plum, fresh herbs and oak spice on the nose, plus a whiff of celery seed. Finishes with modest tannins and slightly elevated acids.

Hartford Court
1995 Arrendell Vineyard Pinot Noir
85 Points Editor, Wine Spectator 85

Tough, earthy and leathery, with just enough rupe plum and black cherry. Cellar into 1999 in hopes the fruit pushes to the fore.

Matanzas Creek
1999 Journey Red
84? Points Robert M. Parker Jr., Robert Parker Wine Advocate 84?

Overly oaked, meduim-bodied, tart, austere, emaciated effort displaying notes of earth and red as well as black fruits. There is not much depth, texture, or length in this preposterously priced offering.

Exhibits an impressive color and attack, but narrows considerably in the mouth.

La Crema
2023 Pinot Noir Monterey

Strawberry and rhubarb notes let lightly perky acidity ripple through, with tea and savory on the modest finish. Drink now. 117,477 cases made.

2020 Vintner's Reserve Pinot Noir
84 Points Erin Brooks, Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2020 Pinot Noir Vintner’s Reserve comes from Monterey, Sonoma, Mendocino and Santa Barbara counties. Matured for eight months in 12% new French oak, it’s scented of woodsmoke, cranberries, blood orange and forest floor. The light-bodied palate is chalky and fresh with somewhat dilute, earth-laced flavors and a simple, juicy finish. Drink it over the next year or two. 75,425 cases produced.

Straightforward lemon-lime and green apple flavors are juicy and refreshing, with a note of dried chamomile on the finish. Drink now.

2019 Vintner's Reserve Merlot
84 Points Virginie Boone, Wine Enthusiast Magazine

Floral aromatics provide an earthiness of compost and violet to this wine, thick in tannin and robustly layered in clove, cedar and plum.
