Great bang for buck. Some good cherry notes while not overly sweet, which can ruin a Pinot in my estimation. Very reasonable and tasty. — 7 years ago

I enjoy Zin but usually don’t usually gravitate towards it. This is balanced in an interesting way—less dark and more fruit than Seghesio but with some woody notes that carry it through. Quite enjoyable. — 7 years ago

Fountain Grove

Reserve Napa Carneros Chardonnay 2016

8.5

Definitely more buttery, but with a little more lemon. Moderates between different kinds of chard by giving sharp notes typical of oaky and fruitier versions, rather than balancing it into a whole. — 8 years ago

Very balanced and more complex than most chards I drink. Craig thought it was great. — 7 years ago

8.7

Very pineappley aroma but far less on the palate. Compared to the Kali Hart we had first a lot more oak, less complexity overall—had some interesting notes to start and in middle, but the rest was solid but not too enlightening. — 7 years ago

Leathery with big tannins, which I like—but this one could do with a bit more fruit. — 7 years ago

Vistamar

Like someone else said, solid cab. Very recognizable cab ‘stages’, pretty well put together. — 8 years ago

Effervescent. Dark fruit, pretty sweet but not sappy. — 8 years ago
