Farrier 2007 Countenance Red (Alexander Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $35
A lovely Bordeaux blend, fruity and incredibly rich. Mainly Cabernet Sauvignon, it shows the Alexander Valley’s soft tannins and herb-tinged flavors of blackberries and black cherries, topped with smoky sweet new oak. Easy to like now with a charred steak.

Farrier 2008 Hay Hook Sauvignon Blanc-Semillon (Alexander Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
Mainly Sauvignon Blanc, with 18% Sémillon, this is a very fruity young wine. It brims with Meyer lemon, pineapple, pear, peach, apricot and lime flavors, but is rescued from being a fruit bomb by crisp acidity and a nice minerality. There’s just a touch of sweet oak for richness.

Farrier 2008 Andiron Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc (Alexander Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
Made from 70% Sémillon and 30% Sauvignon Blanc, this softly appealing wine has rich flavors of mangoes and guavas, with a cashew nut butteriness. It’s smooth in the mouth, and a little honey sweet in the finish. A nice cocktail sipper.

Farrier 2007 Presshouse Red (Alexander Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $30
This Cabernet Franc-based Bordeaux blend is softly approachable now for its wealth of black and red cherry, currant and toasty oak flavors. It has rich tannins and a long, spicy finish. Should hold in the bottle and possibly gain momentum for 4–5 years.

Farrier 2009 Presshouse Red (Alexander Valley)
- $24
Rich and tasty, this is a big wine that’s ripe in blackberries, black currants and mocha, yet balanced with rich tannins and fine acidity. The blend is Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Carmenere.

Slender and simple, this has a green asparagus flavor that thins the citrus and pear notes.
