Scintillating acidity and a bloom of honeysuckle and lime blossom ramp up with lemon meringue. Vanilla wax candle and white tea add to the refreshing finish.

The noticeable lower alcohol level of 12.8% defines this wine, unveiling its elegant nature. This wine exhibits well-defined black fruit and an herbaceous grip. More intense than other vintages we’ve tasted, its backbone of graphite and spiced sandalwood is disciplined, thanks to plush tannins. Precision of flavor seems measured, with a composed finish of black cherry, nutmeg, and cassis.
One of the more sophisticated Chardonnays, Burgundian in style, Californian in demeanor. With four months of sur lie aging in stainless steel and barrel, the liquid is linear and bright, with sassy acidity and wet stone. Floral tones glisten, with lemon blossom at its fore. Its character is cool and light, lifted with sea spray whetting the palate, dotting summer pear with salinity.
Framed by tobacco and coffee, black raspberries, and dark chocolate beam through, lifted by fresh acidity. The wine demonstrates structure, with a meaty core.
Apricot nectar and honeysuckle are intriguing starters for this luscious white. Full-bodied and semi-sweet, with a hint of powdered vanilla.
For its classic combination of rose petal, watermelon, strawberry, and peach notes, this blend of Cinsault, Grenache, and Syrah is a straightforwardly easy drinker. The acidity’s mouthwatering, yet the texture is gentle, further smoothed by a faint hint of banana.
Expressing its origins in limestone soils, this blend of 90% Chardonnay and 10% Ugni Blanc is fresh as a daisy—or gardenia, in this case, which shows on the nose along with the tangy green and yellow apple, lemon marmalade, and young pineapple that alight on the lifted palate before a squeeze of lime gives the finish a zing.
Like its Blanc counterpart, this blend of Grenache Noir (40%), Cinsault (40%), and Pinot Noir (20%) is built for everyday enjoyment, being equal parts fruit-forward and refreshing. Aromas and flavors of peach, Honeycrisp apple, and grilled lemon are highlighted by a sprightly acid profile and a pop of strawberry.
