2014 Corison Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
Floral, elegant, high-toned Napa Cabernet
Floral, elegant, high-toned Napa Cabernet
A riper, more substantial Annia white blend
Spirited, snappy, and good for picnics
Creamy and ample Chardonnay from Chalk Hill
Rosy, smoky Pinot Noir from Russian River
A cocoa-dusted Alp-style cheese from central Vermont
Woodsy, savory, but lifted Grenache from Barossa
Exploring vital grapes with big personalities—if tiny footprints
Youthful and somewhat reticent now
Fruit, herbs, freshness, and low alcohol
Breezy-fresh with a lively snap of herbs
