California Wine Pairings

  • 2009 Grgich Hills Estate Fumé Blanc

    Mike Grgich crafts this biodynamic wine with a decidedly lighter hand than he reserves for his powerful Chardonnays, emphasizing fresh grass and citrus aromas, delicious melon and citrus flavors and a refreshingly bright and layered finish.

  • 2009 Chateau St. Jean Sonoma County Chardonnay

    Winemaker Margo Van Staaveren's basic Chardonnay has been a go-to value white for many years now, and the ’09 will only sustain the wine's reputation. Silky, with an alluring touch of sweet oak, it’s classic California Chardonnay.

    One of California’s surest hands with Pinot Noir, Edwards also makes this perfumed, arresting Sauvignon. Assembled from several Russian River Valley vineyards, the wine combines tangerine and peach with Musqué’s hard-to-define, not-quite-honeysuckle aroma.
