Durney 1996 Estate Bottled Chardonnay (Carmel Valley)

  1. $23
Very apple-flowery nose with herb accents. Fairly soft, round mouthfeel. Buttered popcorn and apples on the palate, with a fair amount of oak coming up on the finish.  — W.E.  (6/1/2000)

Durney 1998 Heller Estate Merlot (Carmel Valley)

  1. $26
A warm microclimate means that reds from Carmel Valley are typically less herbal than those from other portions of Monterey. This wine boasts a nice mix of cedar and black cherries upfront before turning tough, with a bitter edge to the tannins on the finish. Drink it young, with food to tame its rough edges.  — J.C.  (6/1/2001)

Durney 1993 Estate Bottled Cabernet Sauvignon (Carmel Valley)

  1. $25
Just released at five and a half years. Refined aromas of black currant, with classy oak notes. Fruity and simple, with pretty currant flavors and zesty acidity. An “A” for effort, but for early consumption.  — S.H.  (7/1/1999)
