1992 Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay
86 Points Robert M. Parker Jr., Robert Parker Wine Advocate 86 Good to Very Good.

A delicious, fruity, opulently-textured Chardonnay that provides immense pleasure and satisfaction for a fair price.

Cambria
1992 Julia's Vineyard Pinot Noir
Dennis Schaefer, Santa Barbara News-Press, CA

A sweet nose of candied cherries. Additional cola and tree bark flavors decorate the edges. A Pinot to buy for in your face fruit intensity and a full finish.

1991 Chardonnay Sonoma County
88 Points Anthony Dias Blue, San Jose Mercury News, CA 88 Good to Very Good.

Big and ripe with lush fruit and oily, dense texture.

Stonestreet
1992 Pinot Noir Sonoma County
Fred Tasker, Miami Herald, FL

It has the aroma of orange peel and is packed with dry, rich butter and raspberry flavors that mellow and become plummy as it warms.

1992 Julia's Vineyard Pinot Noir
Mike Dunne, San Francisco Examiner, CA Wine of the Week.

If you're wondering why wine writers increasingly are excited about the reliability and intensity of Pinot Noir produced in California, pull the cork from a bottle of 1992 Julia's Vineyard Pinot Noir. It's what the varietal is all about when it can be coaxed into flaunting its finest stuff--plum berries and cherries in smell and flavor, a rich satiny texture, a structure wiry yet resilient, a critic tanginess in the finish.

A heftier, spicier and more complex version of the varietal.

1991 Chardonnay Anderson Valley
Editor, Wine & Spirits

Forward pear-apple nose, the fruit character is surrounded by vanilla and brown spice oakiness. Very crisp palate, and a lean finish.

1990 Durell Vineyard Syrah
Robert M. Parker Jr., Robert Parker Wine Advocate

A provocative bouquet of bacon fat, toasty new oak, smoke and black fruits.

1991 Vintner's Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
Editor, Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine

A mild, accessible and fundamentally friendly wine that seems to have been designed with early drinking in mind, this supple middleweight steers to cherries and vanilla in both its bright aromas and its direct flavors.

Editor, Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine

Lavish oak works to fill out deep aromas of cocoa and well-ripened fruit, and it takes an even larger role in providing richness to the flavors that follow.

Light tropical fruit aromas, and a generous, slightly sweet entry. The full spicy palate leads to a warm finish. The classic Kendall-Jackson blend.

Cambria
1992 Reserve Chardonnay
97 Points Editor, Wine & Spirits 97 Classic.

Cambria Vineyard and Winery is quickly earning a reputation for rich, Santa-Barbara-style chardonnay. This buxom wine offers a solid array of melony fruit and oak scents, followed by a full, creamy mouth-feel and a long, vanilla-toned finish. Admirable for its great concentration, all the big elements are well-balanced in place.

La Crema
1992 Reserve Chardonnay
92 Points Editor, Wine & Spirits 92 Outstanding.

Herbal and green apple aromas seem most forward here, but an underlying oaky sweetness gives the wine a great deal of promise. Clean, dry finish.

Stonestreet
1990 Legacy Red Wine
85 Points Editor, Wine & Spirits 85 Good to Very Good.

A meritage-type blend with intense cabernet character. The bouquet is balanced between tobacco, spicy scents and black fruit. On the palate, berries and black currants dominate in a mouthfilling body. Light in the finish.

Youthful but rich and viscous

La Crema
1992 Chardonnay Sonoma Coast
Tom Stockley, Seattle Times, WA

In a short time, La Creama has become one of the most prestigious names in chardonnay. This lovely, tropical-styled wine is from a fascinating blend of fruit from Sonoma's Russian River area, Monterey, Mendocino and Santa Barbara. And with that growing season of 92', how could it not be good? It's without any doubt in my mind the best La Crema has made.

1992 Grand Reserve Chardonnay
Tom Marquardt and Patrick Darr, Capital Gazette, MD

Recommended. One of the better efforts by this Sonoma winery. Tropical fruit aromas and toasty oak flavors, good complexity.

La Crema
1992 Reserve Pinot Noir
Tom Marquardt and Patrick Darr, Capital Gazette, MD Recommended.

Bright, black cherry flavors with a brisk, American oak edge. A hint of nutmeg and no filtration give the wine extra dimension.

Kendall-Jackson
1991 Vintner's Reserve Pinot Noir
Steve Pitcher, San Francisco Chronicle, CA

Very aromatic nose of cloves and strawberry-cherry fruit, enhanced by a hint of forest floor humus and a note of bacon rind; reminiscent of a premier cru Burgundy. Spicy and complex on the palate, with delicious flavors focusing on cherries and berries, plus spice. A true bargain.

Kendall-Jackson
1990 Vintner's Reserve Syrah
Anthony Dias Blue, San Jose Mercury News, CA Superior.

Spicy and rich with lush texture and wonderful smoky, velvety qualitites.

Huge body, rich texture, hints of spice and vanilla. Most grapes come from the slopes of Mount St.Helena in Sonoma County.

Cambria
1992 Tepusquet Vineyard Syrah
Robert M. Parker Jr., Robert Parker Wine Advocate

From the barrel, it had spectacular extraction of flavor, and a huge, bacon fat, cassis-scented nose that reminded me of top-notch Hermitage. Its texture was softer than a classic Hermitage, but the tannins were ripe and the purity of fruit was admirable.
