Vinous, Josh Raynolds
(11/2017) "(aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 35% of them new) Brilliant red. A suave, expansive bouquet evokes fresh red berries, potpourri, incense and smoky minerals. Sappy, alluringly sweet and light on its feet, offering intense raspberry, cherry and floral pastille flavors that are braced by a suggestion of bitter blood orange. Plays power off delicacy with a sure hand, showing no excess weight but displaying abundant red fruit character. Fine-grained tannins lend shape to a strikingly long, smooth finish that leaves a sexy rose pastille note behind. Drinking Window: 2021 - 2028."

(11/2017) "(Raised for 18 months in French oak barrels, 20% of them new) Limpid ruby-red.

Focused and seamless in texture, showing superb finishing clarity, fine-grained tannins and outstanding persistence. Drinking Window: 2021 - 2028."

(8/2016) "A sensational Chardonnay from one of the great vineyards in the Central Coast is the 2014 Chardonnay Estate Rosemary's Vineyard (this site is the coolest in the lineup). It offers classic Chardonnay notes of apple blossom, salt block, buttered citrus and hints of charcoal to go with building richness and depth on the palate, integrated acidity and a great finish. Drink this complete, balanced and lengthy beauty over the coming 5-6 years, although it will keep longer if well stored."

(8/2018) "(21% new French oak) Pale yellow-gold. Ripe melon, pear nectar, tangerine and toasty lees on the deeply perfumed nose, complicated by a mineral flourish that adds focus and lift. Silky and seamless in the mouth, offering mineral-laced, impressively concentrated citrus and orchard fruit flavors that pick up subtle fennel and vanilla notes with aeration. Smoothly blends richness and delicacy and closes with strong, mineral-driven persistence and a sneaky floral quality. I really like the interplay of power and delicacy here. Drinking window: 2021 - 2028." (California)

(6/2016) "Pale gold. A lively, incisive bouquet evokes citrus and orchard fruits and white flowers, and an iodine nuance emerges as the wine opens up. Shows excellent clarity and depth to the fresh orange, pear and candied ginger flavors, which open up steadily with air. Smoothly combines power and vivacity and finishes very long and taut, with resonating mineral and floral notes. Drinking window: 2018 - 2023."
