Chime 2009 Pinot Noir (Sonoma County)
- Editors' Choice
- $19
What a great Pinot, and look at that price. The wine is translucent in ruby hue, dry, silky in texture and crisp in acids, showing the textural hallmarks of a fine coastal bottling. The raspberry, cherry, cola and spice flavors are delicious and complex. A terrific value. Production was 1,100 cases.

Chime 2008 Pinot Noir (Anderson Valley)
- Editors' Choice
- $18
This is a fine Pinot Noir. May not be as full-bodied or fruity as some, but it’s truly elegant, crisply refined, and thoroughly dry, offering raspberry, rhubarb, tangerine zest and Dr. Pepper cola flavors that are wrapped into a silky texture. Production was a low 820 cases.

Chime 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon (Sonoma County)
- Online Exclusive
- $19
Exceptionally ripe and juicy, with briary wild-blackberry and cherry flavors. It’s a good wine, a little coarse, but nicely dry and spicy. A brief decant will help soften the tannins.

- $11
A great buy in a useful Pinot Noir that is not without appeal. It’s bone dry, tart and elegant, with a light, silky mouthfeel framing cherry and cola flavors. One of the best Pinots at this price range.

Rich, ripe and oaky, this shows fruit-forward apricot, orange and pineapple flavors. The mouthfeel is creamy and tastes buttery-sweet. Simple, but appealing in the modern Chardonnay way.

Simple and strongly flavored, this is powerful in pear, vanilla and buttered toast notes. There’s not much subtlety, but it will satisfy fans of this style.

Chime 2010 Chardonnay (Russian River Valley)

Not much going on besides lots of toasty oak, buttered popcorn and caramel aromas and flavors. Somewhere down there is pineapple and lime fruit.
