Hologram 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley ($34)

Blueberries sparked with black pepper indicate a robust start. Espresso and licorice are surrounded by sleek tannins, augmented by spiced barrel notes.

Hologram 2024 Chardonnay, Napa Valley ($24)

Exacting and vivid, its many layers of flavor are no illusion. Lemon is wispy, with an accompanying garden boasting Sencha tea, honeyed pineapple, Mediterranean herbs, and a finish of creamy vanilla.

Hologram 2024 Pinot Noir, Napa Valley ($29)

Perky acidity adds zip to tart plum, assisted by a sprinkling of white pepper. Luscious and juicy notes of black raspberry, accented by dusty cocoa. Plenty of personality here!

Hologram 2024 Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley ($21)

Ethereal mouthfeel, with sugared lime rind, honeycomb, and a stony frame.

Infamous Goose 2025 Sauvignon Blanc, New Zealand ($19)

Jasmine and green tea adorn pink grapefruit and salty pineapple. Glistening acidity lights up the wine’s crisp, floral, and pure attributes.

Interpretation 2023 Red Blend Appellation Series, Napa Valley ($28)

Concentrated, with sturdy tannins. Black currant weaves through graphite and espresso. Energetic and inviting.

Interpretation 2023 Red Blend, Napa Valley ($28)

Our take on this dynamic, aromatic red is a profile of pure luxury. Sleek, refined tannins unite with an array of floral tones and blue fruit.

Introvert 2024 Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand ($17)

High-powered aromatics sing from the glass in a soprano voice. Basil, chervil, dill, and lime converge as grassy notes meld with gooseberry. Salted minerality creates a sleek texture.
