Cherries Jubilee suggestions come on after aeration./ Juicy and real pinot. Delicious as well as accurate. Certainly coastal. There’s a freshness and fruit purity to it, absence of heavy oak and alcohol influences. This makes it seem almost non-Californian. But there’s no Burgundian terroir here and no Oregon-New Zealand herbalness, so it kinda fills a niche of its own. I like that. 90/100. |

What this translates to in their mostly barrel-fermented 2006 Chardonnay is a near-kaleidoscopic array of aromas and flavors ranging from mouthwatering honeydew melons and fresh-cut pears to allspice, scraped vanilla beans and toasted coconut. Pair it with richer fish like swordfish and salmon, cream and butter sauces, and even a hot basket of fried chicken. Extra points if you join it with buttery corn-on-the-cob.’ |

So winemaker Jeff Myers crafted his nebbiolo fruit into rose and made a nice, fresh, light-bodied rendition for several years. In search of a fuller, more mealworthy rose, Myers added some syrah in 2007, and the results were so successful he elevated the wine to Terra d’Oro reserve status. Wow! This is a man-handler’s, meat-eater’s rose! Think BBQ. 92/100. |

Solidly based on old-vines meunier fruit, this is a lovely and explicit representative of the rich, open style of the 2000 Champagne vintage.
