(10/29/2018) "The 2016 Hartford Court Pinot Noir Seascape Vineyard is pale to medium ruby-purple colored and opens with vibrant cranberries, pomegranate and Bing cherries scents with touches of underbrush, wild sage, red roses and mossy bark with a waft of tilled soil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate packs in the elegant red fruit and earthy layers, finishing on a long, lingering, provocative mineral note. 348 cases produced. Drink 2022 - 2035."

Hartford Court "Far Coast Vineyard" Sonoma Coast Chardonnay 2016

(6/14/2019) "Always one of my favorites, the 2016 Chardonnay Far Coast Vineyard is another classic beauty from this estate. Caramelized lemon and orchard fruits, beautiful minerality, notes of white flowers, spice, and some salty marine notes all dominate the nose. Medium to full-bodied, it offers beautiful tension and elegance, bright acidity, and a great finish. This rich, powerful, structured Chardonnay will be better with a year or two of bottle age and should evolve for over a decade. Maturity 2019 - 2029."

Hartford Court "Far Coast" Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2013
93
Wine Advocate
(10/29/2015) "The 2013 Pinot Noir Far Coast Vineyard, which comes from a mountain ridge north of Fort Ross on the Sonoma Coast (408 cases), shows lots of herbaceousness, Japanese green tea notes intermixed with cocoa, black cherries, pomegranate and a hint of earth. This is a spicy, distinctively herbal style of Pinot Noir that readers will either love or not. I did like it, because it offers such a contrast in style to the other Pinot Noirs from Don Hartford's winery. Drink it over the next 7-8 years."

Sojourn "Campbell Ranch" Sonoma Coast Chardonnay 2013

Wine Enthusiast
(9/1/2015) "From a high-elevation site near the outpost of Annapolis, close to the Mendocino border, this is a briny, salty and soft wine, complex and bristling in acidity, yet possessed of subtle power and finesse. Enjoy now or over time, cellaring through 2018."

Peay Vineyards Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2015

Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(1/2017) "The 2015 Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast) is a terrific appellation level wine from Peay. Bright red stone fruit, blood orange, tobacco, mint and orange peel give the wine its distinctive upper register. Finessed and light on its feet, the 2015 exudes class. This is a fabulous showing and an overachiever for the year. Drinking window: 2018 - 2025."

Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(3/2017) "The 2015 Syrah (Sonoma Coast) is another of the many highlights in this range from Arnot-Roberts. Inky and intense, and yet light on its feet, the 2015 has it all. Violet, lavender and black pepper add aromatic nuance. The 2015 was done with 100% whole clusters, but the stems aren't especially noticeable. This is a fabulous wine from Duncan Arnot and Nathan Roberts. Even better, it is a stunning value. Don't miss it!"

Hartford Court "Land's Edge Vineyards" Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2014
92
Wine Advocate
(10/29/2015) "The only 2014 tasted was the early-bottled 2014 Pinot Noir Land's Edge Vineyards, which come from a vineyard four miles from the Pacific Ocean. Aged in 32% new French oak, the wine displays raspberry and blueberry fruit, damp earth, fresh porcini mushrooms and plenty of minerality. This is a juicy, tightly knit, but concentrated and promising Pinot Noir that has that forward fruit of this vintage well displayed. Drink Date: 2015 - 2023."

Wine Enthusiast
(10/1/2014) "This gorgeous rendering comes from the owners of Reuling Vineyard itself, made famous years ago by the likes of Mark Aubert. Here, in winemaker Matt Taylor's hands, the wine recalls orange blossom and steely wet stone. Layers of mid-weight pear and almond paste deliver aching complexity on through the fig-infused finish. This is one to cellar 2019-2024."

Walt Sonoma Coast Chardonnay 2017
92+
Our Score
(6/2019) Kathryn and Craig Hall are best known for the powerful Cabernets they produce at their eponymous winery in Napa Valley. Walt, named in honor of Kathryn's parents, is their project in Sonoma. The impressive 2017 Walt Chardonnay features fruit from famed vineyards like Sangiacomo and Gap's Crown. Old school Cali Chard lovers will enjoy the new oak, baking spice and butterscotch flavors, which integrate seamlessly with orchard and stone fruit tones. Lush, plump and very well balanced, this is both deliciously yummy and downright refined.
