Reviews
2018 Kick Ranch Sonoma County Sauvignon Blanc
93 Points – Wine Enthusiast Magazine August 2020
Gritty, stony and complex, this wine is delightfully lively and lengthy in flavors of green apple, stone fruit and lime. Touches of dried herb and fresh grass nip at its edges, remaining crisp and clean through a long finish. -Virginie Boone
2018 “El Bobo” Bennett Valley Grenache
92 Points – Wine Enthusiast Magazine December 2020
This lovely vineyard-designate tastes of baked blackberry dusted in cinnamon and nutmeg. Soft, supple tannins and well-integrated oak allow the rich dense fruit to speak loudest, with a lasting note of wild strawberry. -Virginie Boone
2016 “El Duende” Jemrose Vineyard Bennett Valley Syrah
94 Points – Wine Enthusiast Magazine September 2020
This is a thick, juicy and impressively layered wine, grippy and powerfully built. Concentrated flavors of brambly raspberry, wild game and garrigue are impressively seasoned in irresistible shocks of white pepper, coming to a smooth, resolved finish. -Virginie Boone
2017 “Salome” Landy Vineyard Russian River Petite Sirah
92 Points – Wine Enthusiast Magazine March 2020
This is a 100% varietal wine that is successfully meaty, earthy, herbal and sage-adorned. Thick in black pepper and garrigue, with underlying hints of mushroom and lavender, it has girth, depth and grip. It will do well in the cellar; enjoy best from 2023–2028. -Virginie Boone
