Only the second vintage of this distinctive, single-vineyard wine. It is deep, structured and layered, with minerals, graphite and blackcurrant flavors, seeming to reflect the gravelly soil it was grown on. Firm tannins add a little bit to the texture, lifting the stony, almost chalky palate. From the east side of the Oakville appellation, just across the highway from To Kalon Vineyard. Drinkable now, but best from 2030.

Fragrant and plump yet retains a sense of refinement and polish, with jammy raspberry, cherry, orange peel and licorice accents that build richness toward briary tannins. Drink now through 2035.

What a velvety, mouth-filling and lusciously ripe wine that at the same time is fascinating for its balance and fresh finish. It offers tons of blackberries, blueberries and dark chocolate on broad, layered tannins and a full body. Easy to sip already, but has the structure for further aging. Drinkable now, but best from 2030.

Warm aromas of black cherry, roasted strawberry, baking spice and toasted oak draw the nose deeply into this clonal study. The palate is grippy in texture yet lush in flavors of strawberry, pepper and French-toast spices, all wrapped in chalky tannins. —M.K.

Sourced predominantly from younger own vineyard Banghoek Valley grapes. Vinified with the same philosophy as Capensis, fermented in oak, a small portion of 25-28% new oak with maturation for closer to 11 months on full gross lees. The aromatics are pure and bright, laced with lemon and lime cordial, dried herbs, lemon grass and a pithy grapefruit hint. Beautiful breadth and depth on the palate with a bold intensity, fabulous green and yellow citrus fruit concentration finishing with a silky, delicate lacy persistence. Light touch but very classy.

50%+ Fijnbosch farm fruit in the blend normally. Displays complex aromatics of savoury waxy lemons, pineapple, wet straw, grilled nuts, vanilla pod, lime cordial and a fine, stony vein of minerality. The palate shows a notable intensity of green and yellow citrus fruits, lovely translucent purity and a powerful but energetic length. Youthful, vibrant and very impressive.

Light, bright yellow colour with discreet and reserved fresh pastry, oatmeal and pencil wood aromas, the palate light and bright and quite intense, with a linear profile and reserved cashew, almond and nougat flavours. A refined and subtle wine which is lovely now but promises more in a year or two.

43/34/23% grenache/shiraz/mourvèdre; élevage in old puncheons, foudre, ceramic eggs and amphorae. Naturally, this is grenache-led. And not just by numbers, but by flavour, lithe weight and architecture. Wild raspberry, damson and tart blackberry, with a liberal dusting of ground spices, dipping both into baking and master stock territory. The balance of varieties is à point, the tension, fine tannin, verve and energetic drive compelling. It is a finely wrought and keenly frisky expression. Superb, especially for the tariff.

From two estate blocks, handpicked and basket pressed. Fermented wild in older French puncheons; matured for eight months with monthly lees stirring. This is a foil to the Roux Beauté bottling, more built on slippery texture than pithy structure, with notes of stone fruit, dried lime, green melon and ripe pear. There are refined herbal accents, too, leaning into soft mint leaves, pine and furry young sage, rather than anything expressly green, with a subtle nutty brininess to close. It’s very fine expression of the grape, and further emphatic proof of its suitability to the Vale.

The nose is aromatic, expressing notes of peaches, mandarin confit, green papayas and honeydew melon. The palate is textural and rounded with bright acidity, giving notes of Meyer lemons, dried herbs, chamomile tea, apple skin and sea salt. A very complex blend of 56% grenache blanc, 17% grenache gris, 17% roussanne, 7% clairette and 3% bourboulenc that sat in clay eggs on the skins for five months. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Perfumed and complex aromas of wild raspberries, potpourri, orange rind and dried herbs. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with vibrant acidity and fine tannins, giving notes of boysenberries, red licorice, blackberry bush and violets. A very complete wine made from old bush vines planted in 1946. Exceptional. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Perfumed and floral aromas of wild raspberries, rose petals, orange rind and ocean spray. The palate is medium-bodied with focused acidity and integrated tannins, giving notes of strawberries, sweet spices and cassia bark. Very fresh, with an underlying tension. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

So broad, generous and mouth-filling, yet firmly structured in velvety tannins. Spicy elements of cloves, cinnamon, tamarind and cocoa around red and black cherries, with some black pepper and iron notes. Difficult to find a better 100% malbec in California. Drink now or hold.

Big but balanced, bursting with black fruit and savory notes on a firm structure of fine-grained tannins. It starts with floral and black cherry aromas, then blackberry, graphite, tobacco leaf and mocha flavors that expand on the palate and linger in the finish. Drinkable now, but best from 2030.

Silky and sophisticated, an elegant wine that's pure, delicious and so well balanced. Made from old vines and aged in 80% new French oak to add baking spices, cocoa, iron and graphite nuances to the luscious black cherries and blackcurrants. Contains 20% cabernet sauvignon. Drinkable now, but best from 2030.
