special to Green Valley. This is a very expressive, stylish wine. It has extraordinary depth of character and yet the weight and texture of the wine are so light and silky, it just glides across the palette.

within the Russian River Valley appellation. These select growers contractually farm to their specifications, and therefore are included as part of their estate program. Blending from multiple vineyards within this cool region highlights the diversity of planted grape clones (Dijon 113, 115, 777, 667, and Rochioli 2A) and soils (Goldridge, Zamora, Cortina, and Arbuckle). This wine is truly an expression of the Russian River Valley’s unique terroir.
J Vineyards' 2011 Pinot Noir is a rich, ruby-red wine that vibrantly showcases its cool-climate Russian River Valley pedigree. Aromas of classic bright cherry fill the glass. The wine delivers earthy flavors of vanilla, black clove, toasted nutmeg, and smoky barbecue.

Let's be blunt, finding a delicious Pinot Noir around the $10 mark is very hard to find, as Pinot Noir is a fickle grape, and only likes to grow in near perfect climates. But as Read More...
soon as we tried this beauty, everybody fell in love with it. And when we found out we could retail it for under $11, there wasn't a person on the wine staff whose eyes didn't pop out of their heads like a cartoon character. Not only are we convinced of the wine's value, but the L.A. Times just made this their Wine of the Week!
No joke, if this wine was priced just under $20, it would still be worth the money, and we have not found a domestic Pinot Noir value like this in quite some time! Sourced from Monterey, San Luis, and Santa Barbara counties, this wine has a dark ruby color with a great nose of cherry, cola, and a wonder floral component. Flavors of cherry, cola, plum, herb, are intermixed with lovely acid to keep it fresh, lively, and not too heavy. While this is a juicy and upfront wine, this has the texture and secondary characteristics of a wine that costs much, much more.

Here’s another little gem from Oregon Pinot country. While probably not bound for the history books like that ‘other’ Jezebel, she’s gaining a reputation here. “Jez” is another wine Read More...
from Aron Hess of Daedalus Cellars. Aron cut his teeth with Rex Hill and Penner-Ash before launching Daedalus. Jezebel is ready-to-drink, easy to like, fruity and spicy. Blended from several exceptional Oregon vineyards, the fruit was cropped around 2-3 tons per acre, fermented in small lots and blended to create a wine which is fruit forward, well-balanced and refreshingly complex. The Stelvin closure makes “Jez” shamelessly easy to open at a bustling dinner table!

Last year, we told you about Jackhammer’s fantastic Pinot Noir that was simply an amazing value at $11.00. Since then, that wine has become our #1 selling Pinot Noir from California! Read More...
So when they came out with a Rosé of Pinot Noir, we were eager to taste it and see if this Rosé was just as good as the Pinot Noir.
Even though the winery is being “cute” with the names (Jack & Jill), this wine is a bit more serious. Made using grapes from the same vineyards that go into the Pinot Noir, this wine follows suite with the same great price to quality ratio as the red! Jillhammer shows a lovely light red color and aromas and flavors of rose petals, watermelon, strawberry and pomegranate. Round, juicy, pleasant and easy drinking, this should be great for Easter meals, sandwiches, and is a perfect picnic wine!

regions of Northern California wine country. The result is a lighter, more elegant, lower alcohol wine reminiscent of the great French Pinots of the Cote d’Or while remaining distinctively California at its core.
Balanced and complex, the wine exhibits the characteristic Kanzler Vineyards fruit and spice nose. Fresh strawberry and red currants wrapped in earthy undertones with notes of berry bramble, Graham crackers, roasted coffee, fried sage and Chinese 5 spice. Bing cherry in the mid-palate, makes for a fresh, vibrant and juicy mouth feel. Firm tannins with a touch of grip hold a lengthy, dry finish with lingering notes of berry, citrus and even peach blossom. This is youthful wine, very enjoyable now, that will get better and better with age.

The approach at Kings Ridge is simple: combine quality and value to produce a wine anyone can enjoy, any night of the week! It’s a move good enough to put any winery in check. Winemaker Read More...
Ryan Harms brings his extensive know-how from his time spent working at other notable wineries, such as Bergstrom, Torii Mor, and Rex Hill. These grapes come from both the coolerWillamette Valley and the warmer Umpqua Valley. This Yin and Yang help give this wine its captivating nose of rich, dark cherry and blackberry fruit. In the mouth, the rich berry fruits are wrapped around a spicy core imparted by the oak, with the acidity and tannis lending structure ti this youthful wine. For such a reasonable price, this wine sure is intense!

tend to become elevated by the press to star levels, we did rush the proverbial stage on this Pinot Noir. You may not be familiar with the Kosuge name, but there's a good chance you've heard of Saintsbury where Brian spent 15 years making delicious Pinots and Chardonnays, he also makes wine for Miura and consults for several others.

"The dark ruby-colored 2008 Pinot Noir L'Angevin exhibits a delicate perfume of gun flint, sweet cherries, spice box and a hint of boysenberries as well as a medium-bodied, lush, nicely concentrated, gracious, pretty style. This cuvee was bottled unfined and unfiltered after spending 20 months in barrel, of which 50% was new French oak."

over La Crema's estate vineyards each day, Pinot ripens at a leisurely pace. Concentrated, small berries literally burst with flavor, wrapped up in rich spice and plush, round texture.
Gorgeous aromas of black cherry and vanilla bean are joined by plum, black licorice and sassafras. A somewhat hedonistic palate melds vivid blackberry, cocoa and spice over plush texture that leads to a lingering, juicy fruit finish.

WINEMAKERS NOTES - "We require that each LIOCO wine "over deliver for the money." In our minds that standard never goes out of fashion. Sometimes that Read More...
means swallowing a hard pill. Case in point: 2010 Pinot Noir Anderson Valley. The fruit came from the Klindt Vineyard, a "deep-end" Anderson Valley source we historically designate on the label, and which commands a $50 bottle price. While this wine whispered 'Klindt', it boldly proclaimed 'Anderson Valley!', and as such we elected to simply call it that. The telltale signs of the Klindt Vineyard are there however--the red raspberries, the rose petals, and the damp forest floor."

cedar and forest floor. As with all the wines from Robert Talbott Vineyards, the vineyard blocks selected for Logan Pinot Noir are carefully managed to strictly limit yields, thereby increasing the wine?s depth and concentration. To achieve its own unique incarnation of Sleep Hollow Pinot Noir, Logan combines the Burgundian undertones and ethereal nose of older Martini clone plantings, with the richness and intensity of new clone fruit.

only with vineyards they farm, Gary, Mark and Jeff Pisoni produce Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and a Rosé of Pinot Noir. Our goal is for each wine to represent the vineyard and vintage, while at the same time displaying a sense of balance, intensity of flavor and ageability.
This bottling of Pinot Noir is comprised entirely of fruit from Pisoni Vineyards and Garys’ Vineyard. Being a blend, this wine combines great attributes of both vineyards, and at the same time is a wonderful representation of the Santa Lucia Highlands. During the blending process, specific barrels are chosen that are more approachable young, as opposed to the single-vineyard wines, which sometimes benefit from more age.
