Fog Crest 2008 Estate Bottled Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $45
A marvelous Pinot Noir to drink now and over the next 6–7 years. It feels so rich and elaborate, with waves of raspberries, cherries, cola and oak, yet is tightly controlled by firm tannins and a great burst of citrusy acidity. Grows better and better as it warms in the glass.

Fog Crest 2006 Estate Bottled Chardonnay (Russian River Valley)

This isn’t one of those rich, gooey Chardonnays that dazzle some people. But it’s a crisp, minerally wine that shows great elegance and Chablis-like sophistication. Dry and crisp, it shows complex flavors of tart green apples and pears, with subtle influences of smoky oak.

Fog Crest 2005 Estate Bottled Chardonnay (Russian River Valley)
- $45
Acidity marks this Chardonnay. It gives a tart, mouth-cleansing citrusy scour to the lemon and lime and pineapple flavors that finish so dry. It’s a minimalist wine, with a minerally frame, and quite good with shellfish.

Fog Crest’s Chardonnays have been getting sweeter and oakier, it seems, and this is their most desserty-sweet yet. It’s like a vanilla cream cocktail, infused with pineapple liqueur, with a slice of tangerine.
