2019	Isabel Estate	Pinot Noir	This is on the dense, rich side by Pinot standards, but is balanced and food friendly. It leads with supple black cherry, plum, chocolate, medicinal herbs, black pepper and warm tarmac aromas. A zing of acidity buoys the succulent fruit. Spicy tannins keep a firm grip right to the finish. Drink now with protein until 2029.	Wine Enthusiast	90		2022-07-05
2019	Lafond	Chardonnay Santa Rita Hills	Nutty aromas of sweet cream and marshmallow kick off the nose of this bottling. The palate is more chiseled, with hints of rocky earth and dried oregano as well as the core flavors of lemon curd and apple confit.	Wine Enthusiast	91		2022-07-05
2020	Dancing Crow Vineyards	Field Blend 'Old Stake 1901 Vineyard' Lake County	Dried herb and mineral aromas lead to concentrated and tangy red and black cherry flavors and savory, spicy accents. This full-bodied blend, made from 65% Zinfandel plus Cinsault, Alicante Bouschet and several other grape varieties, is moderately tannic and well-balanced.	Wine Enthusiast	90		2022-07-05
2021	Foris	Gewurztraminer	The aromas pop, with notes of grated ginger, flower, rose and pink grapefruit—classic Gewürztraminer. A medium-bodied, flavorful palate follows. Fruit flavors sail off into the distance. It’s impressive. Editors’ Choice.	Wine Enthusiast	91		2022-07-05
2016	Aldonia	Garnacha '100'	Bright ruby to the eye, this wine has a bouquet of cassis, dried hillside herbs and black olive paste. It features flavors of black cherry, pomegranate, black tea, dark chocolate and pickled jalapeño. Substantial tannins coat the palate before evaporating into a spicy finish.

2020	Zoppi Cristina	Ruché di Castagnole Monferrato	Pronounced aromas of red rose mingle with leather, tilled earth, spice and truffle. On the savory palate, fresh acidity and chalky tannins accompany blackberry, Morello cherry, peppercorn and an earthy hint of game. Drink through 2025.	Wine Enthusiast	91		2022-07-05
2020	Stel+Mar	Cabernet Sauvignon Lodi	Strong oak flavors of mint, cedar and coconut rise to the surface in this aromatic, full-bodied and moderately tannic wine. Its grippy texture and oak spices will appeal to some drinkers more than others. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	Best Buy		2022-07-05
2020	Di Giovanna	Grillo 'Helios'	This has aromas of dried lemon, pineapple, chamomile, papaya and melon rind. Subtle earthy and salty hints. Medium-to full-bodied with excellent balance of freshness and ripe exotic-fruit character. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.	James Suckling	92		2022-06-30
2017	Lornano	Rosso Toscana ‘Commendator Enrico	Aromas of ripe red fruit, fresh herbs and dried flowers. Full-bodied with chewy tannins. A savory palate with good spice at the finish. Well balanced, but a bit dry at the end for now. Give it a year or two for the tannins to soften. Try from 2023.	James Suckling	92		2022-06-28
2021	Di Giovanna	Grillo Vurria	White smoke and flowers give way to kiwi and honeydew melon as the 2021 Grillo Vurria displays amazing finesse in the glass. It’s soft upon entry, yet with a savory display of orchard fruits under a pretty air of minty herbs. This leaves the cheeks puckered by tapering off with a salty flourish and a slightly bitter twang. I’m enjoying the more-savory-than-sweet nature of this wickedly fresh Grillo.	Vinous	90		2022-06-24
