USA
If the United States is the world's fourth largest wine-producing nation, California is far and away the country's most important winemaking region, accounting for 90 percent of production, and crafting some of the world's greatest Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Zinfandel, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Wine is actually produced in every one of America's 50 states, even if Utah, Wyoming and North Dakota have only 35ha of vines between them.

2018 Berry Bros. & Rudd, Sonoma County Chardonnay by Ramey Wine Cellars
We’re proud to be working with winemaker David Ramey on our first own-label Sonoma County Chardonnay. From the 2018 vintage, this wine has an attractive, ripe stone-fruit nose, with aromas of orange blossom, ginger and citrus zest adding complexity. Time in French oak has contributed layers of toast and spice, and is generously supported by lively, crisp acidity and a subtle hint of struck match.

2018 Berry Bros. & Rudd Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir by Au Bon Climat
We are proud to collaborate with the highly regarded winemaker Jim Clendenen of Au Bon Climat for our Own Selection Santa Barbara Pinot Noir. The 2018’s blueberry and dark cherry aromas combine with a juicy core of brambles and pepper spice that are intrinsic to the style of Au Bon Climat. Benefiting from coastal influence, the wine’s racy acidity provides a wonderful backbone that is supported by luxurious, silky tannins.

2013 Qupé Marsanne, Santa Barbara, California
The 2013 Marsanne is bright, focused and nicely delineated. Pear, quince and floral notes abound in a crisp, energetic wine to drink over the next handful of years. The blend is 75% Marsanne and 25% Roussanne, which is added for texture and mid-palate.

2014 Qupe, Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyard
This vineyard block just keeps getting better with age. It is rich without being heavy, and with moderate alcohol, has great balance for aging. Aged 2 years in barrel and 2 years in bottle so it shows well on the release. It is deeply colored with well integrated flavors of blueberries, cola and hints of black pepper. If you do keep a cellar, you could put this away for another 10-15 years!

2014 Forman Vineyard, Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
he softer, more sexy and up-front style of the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon makes it already drinking and appealing. Deep ruby/purple, with notes of black and red currants, cedar, licorice and forest, the wine has terrific fruit, medium to full body, ripe, well-integrated tannins and adequate acidity. Drink it over the next 15 or so years. - Robert M. Parker, Jr.

2014 Horsepower Vineyards Syrah The Tribe Vineyard
From a site that's next to En Chamberlin that's planted with a 4x4 spacing (the Sur Echalas is 3x3), the 2014 Syrah The Tribe Vineyard offers more fruit (blackberry, black cherry) as well as beautiful notes of violets, rose petal, pepper and earth. Fermented with 100% whole clusters and aged in neutral puncheons, this full-bodied beauty has fine tannin, juicy acidity and a great finish. It's in direct contrast to the more masculine, meaty, umami style of the Sur Echalas Vineyard. Give it 2-3 years and it too will be long lived!

2014 God Only Knows Grenache, Cayuse Vineyards
There are 533 cases of the 2014 Grenache God Only Knows Armada Vineyard, and as always, it's an unknown blend that's dominated by Grenache (reportedly from vine cuttings from Rayas). It's fermented with just about 100% whole clusters in concrete and aged mostly in neutral puncheons and foudre, with one concrete egg. A bigger, richer wine than the No Girls cuvee, this beauty packs a punch in its black cherry, reduced strawberry, herbes de Provence and crushed violet aromas and flavors. With full-bodied richness, a supple, elegant style and fine tannin, this singular beauty will benefit from a year or three of cellaring and keep for 10-15 years.

2014 En Cerise Syrah Cayuse Vineyards
Just slightly more ruby colored than the Cailloux Vineyard, the 2014 Syrah en Cerise offers more elegance and finesse as well as lots of black cherry, plums, Asian spice and dried lavender aromatics. Full-bodied, elegant and very fine, it's a pretty, perfumed and seamless beauty.

2009 Inglenook, Rubicon, Rutherford, Napa Valley
This is the first vintage that the iconic Inglenook name is re-united with the vineyards, and the wine does not disappoint. Classic ripe Napa Cabernet Sauvignon character, skillful winemaking and use of French oak yield a wine of great concentration and surprising elegance. Patient cellaring will be rewarded with great complexity
