Elements by Artesa 2007 Elements by Artesa Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa County-Sonoma County)
  1. $20
A really nice, classically structured Cabernet that can stand beside bottles costing far more. The blackberry and cherry flavors have a touch of sweet oak. With savory acidity, it’s good to go now. Production was 13,500 cases.  — S.H.  (3/1/2011)

Elements by Artesa 2009 Meritage (Napa Valley)
  1. $30
This Cabernet-based blend includes all the other classic Bordeaux varieties. Aged in 35% new French oak, it’s soft and sweetly gentle, with flavors of cherry-pie filling and blackberry as well as a touch of buttered toast. Drink now.  — S.H.  (6/1/2012)

Elements by Artesa 2010 Chardonnay (Napa County-Sonoma County)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $14
With sweet flavors of honey, pineapple, mango and pear, followed by an oak-driven buttered toast note, this delivers more for the price than many Americans will expect. Zippy acidity keeps everything clean and balanced.  — S.H.  (2/1/2013)

Elements by Artesa 2009 Red (Sonoma County)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $18
This red wine has brisk tannins that frame blackberry and currant flavors, with a meat note and lots of peppery spice. It’s bone dry, and while it’s a little rustic, it’s easy to drink with lamb and beef dishes.  — S.H.  (2/1/2013)
