Schafer-Frohligh Riesling Troken Nahe 2020
From a blend of Tim's top vineyard sites; all younger vines. Beautiful clear color. Limpid. Amazingly focused and elegant aroma.

Sean Thackrey Pleiades California White Wine 2018
From Wine Treasury: "In 1979 Sean Thackrey turned his hand from selling antique books to winemaking. He is definitely not your usual winemaker. Living on the edge of the world down in Marin county he makes these handcrafted wines in his outdoor winery beneath the eucalyptus trees. Sean is the kind of winemaker who makes the “business” of wine the pleasure that it can be. Totally dedicated to the production of his own style of wine, a little eccentric possibly (as so many of the best people are), straight-talking yet generous and very much with the courage of his own convictions. His wines are as individual and idiosyncratic as he is. In the words of Robert Parker: “One of California's most iconic and mystical winemakers, Sean Thackrey has logged in 20 or more vintages of consistently stunning wines that perhaps say it all with the simple quote on his label: 'Sean A. Thackrey, Vintner, Bolinas, California.' ”

Sixto Frenchman Hills Vineyard Chardonnay Washington 2015
93 points Jeb Dunnuck The 2015 Chardonnay Frenchman Hills offers a similar rich, ripe, sexy style, with a touch more minerality as well as toasted nut notions. Deep, rich, concentrated, and opulent, yet always with a fresh style, it's another ripe, toasty, rich Chardonnay to drink over the coming 2-3 years. (4/2018) 93 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate The 2015 Chardonnay Frenchman Hills Vineyard is very attractive, wafting from the glass with notes of buttered yellow orchard fruit, honeycomb, subtle spice and struck match. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, glossy and ample, with bright acids, lovely grip and tension and a chalky, flavorful finish. It's a very compelling Washington State Chardonnay. (WK) (6/2018) 92 points Vinous Bright yellow-gold. Lively scents of peach, lemon and spices, with a touch of mineral pungency. Silky, fine-grained, seamless wine with a hint of salinity to its complex stone fruit, cyanic apricot pit and brown spice flavors. Lovely umami texture here in a rich but very dry wine. Finishes tactile and long, with a touch of youthful austerity. (From vines planted on broken basalt soil at nearly 1,700 feet.) (ST) (10/2017)

The Ojai Vineyard Santa Sauvignon Blanc McGinley Vineyard 2022
Winemaker Notes This wine is full of energy and mouthwatering zippiness. The aromas show that gravelly minerality which we love about this wine, and there’s an evocative inner perfume that gives scents of pineapple guava, melon, and mint. You find an elegant rounded entry on the palate, full of cooling juicy melon flavor. Then the wine tightens into notes of lime, white peach, and kiwi, with a refreshing tanginess that leaves mineral echoes and pithy citrus notes. Critical Acclaim Jeb Dunnuck Coming from a site in the Santa Ynez Valley, the light gold-hued 2021 Sauvignon Blanc McGinley Vineyard gives up a beautiful, clean, fruit-forward bouquet of ripe citrus, honeyed grapefruit, and peach, with just a touch of sappy herbs. It's balanced, medium-bodied, has integrated acidity, and is just one delicious, classy Sauvignon Blanc to enjoy over the coming couple of years.
