Walker Station- Russian River Pinot & Chardonnay
You may be familiar with the Walker Station Chardonnay from Paul Hobbs, a wine that typically scores very well with wine critics. Unfortunately Paul only makes about 150 cases of this Chardonnay, and it is virtually impossible to get anymore. Paul gets the grapes from grower Harry Walker. In 2000 Harry asked Paul to help him launch the Walker Station Vineyards label. Paul agreed. They share the fruit equally, half goes to Harry and half goes to Paul...
Walter Hansel Winery
Premium Russian River Pinot Noir & Chardonnay
Walter Hansel Winery is known by many as one of the top producers in the Russian River Valley. Stephen Hansel has been called, "One of Northern California's good guys", by Robert Parker.
In my opinion Walter Hansel winery is well on it's way to becoming one of the top powerhouse producers of premium Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
Ketcham Estate Winery
Russian River Valley
The 2007 Ketcham
Russian River
Pinot Noir is one of the top RRV Pinots on the
market.
Winemaker Michael Browne
of Kosta Browne
fame, made this
incredible Pinot Noir. This Pinot is sourced from top vineyards located in the heart of the Russian River Valley. This is a world class Pinot at an
everyday price.
Dark Horse
The Dark Horse wines have been a HUGE HIT with my clients over the years. Winemaker Mike Loykasek was named winemaker of the year in 2007 at the Sonoma County Harvest Fair.
Mike has made wine for over 20 years; including stints at Meeker, De La Montanya, and Armida (he invented the popular "Poizin" label while he made the wine for Armida).
VENGE
One of my favorite blends out of Napa Valley has to be the new Scouts Honor from Venge Vineyards. This exciting blend is made by Kirk Venge who at a young age has become one of the most in demand consulting winemakers in California. Kirk has made wines at some of Napa Valley's top wineries including Bacio Divino, Frantesca, Macauley, and several others. This wine has received rave reviews from critics.
Vogelzang
The new Vogelzang Estate Sauvignon Blanc is one of the most captivating white wines that I have ever tasted. This magnificent wine is made by one of the top winemakers in California, Robbie Meyer. Meyer has also made the wines for Lewis, Peter Michael, and Jericho Canyon.
The vineyard is located in prime area of the Santa Ynez Valley. The soils there are very rocky which adds a distinct mineral character to this delicious Sauvignon Blanc.
