Bargetto 2004 Regan Vineyard Pinot Noir (Santa Cruz Mountains)
- $35
Bargetto’s been working with Pinot from this vineyard for some time now, and this is their best effort to date. It shows classic coastal varietal character, with a delicately dry, silky structure, flavors of cherries, cola, pomegranates, rhubarb tea and dusty spices, and crisp acidity. Best now for its polished elegance.

Bargetto 2000 Dry Gewürztraminer (Santa Cruz Mountains)
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $12
This single-vineyard wine smells unbelievably good, with gingerbread, honey, citrus, vanilla custard and tropical fruit notes bursting from the glass. The flavors are as good, filled with ripe fruits and spices. ItÕs not all that dry, but pretty much so. One of the best Gewurzes of the vintage, and an incredible value.

Bargetto 2001 Merlot (Santa Cruz Mountains)
- $20
There are many admirable qualities to this wine. Its mountain origins lend it a tight, taut structure, rich in tannins and acids, yet the berry, cherry fruit is accessible and ripe. And what a deliciously long, sweet finish it has.

Bargetto 2004 Reserve Merlot (Santa Cruz Mountains)
- $35
This is a true reserve, richer and more complex than Bargetto’s regular Merlot. Shows dense flavors of black raspberries, currants, cherries, chocolate and vanilla, wrapped into firm but accessible tannins, and finishes thoroughly dry and spicy. Best now and for a year or two.

Bargetto 2006 Regan Vineyards Reserve Chardonnay (Santa Cruz Mountains)
- $30
Bargetto’s ’06 reserve from their Regan Vineyards is a rich, creamy wine. It brims with classic coastal acidity and ripe flavors of grilled pineapples and roasted hazelnuts, with interesting notes of charred oak and minerals.

Bargetto 2000 Regan Vineyard Chardonnay (Santa Cruz Mountains)
- $20
Lush, ripe and oaky, with oodles of juicy peach and tropical fruit flavors accented with the smoke, vanilla and spices of oak. The finish adds a burst of cleansing acidity. —S.H.

Bargetto 2010 Chardonnay
- Editors' Choice
- Online Exclusive
- $15
This Chardonnay emphasizes structural elegance and mineral-driven acidity, rather than opulence, although you’ll find good citrus and tropical fruit flavors. With a dry finish, it’s a fine Chardonnay to drink with chicken, ham, salmon or pork, or a nice dish of buttery pasta with peas and Parmesan.

Bargetto 2009 Regan Vineyards Reserve Merlot (Santa Cruz Mountains)
- Online Exclusive
- $40
This wine displays the aggressive acidity typical of Central Coast Merlots. While it’s rich and dry in raspberry, cherry and red currant flavors, with a fine note of smoky oak, the tartness is central. Pairing this with ham will help tame the acids.
