Goyette 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

  • Editors' Choice
  1. $19
This is a smooth, rich and very drinkable Cabernet Sauvignon. It shows ripely classic flavors of blackberries, black currants, minerals and cedar. The tannins are brisk and furry, but the wine doesn’t seem like a longterm ager. Good now and through 2014.  — S.H.  (9/1/2010)

Goyette 2009 Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $24
Lots of power and richness in this young, vigorous Pinot Noir. With brisk acids and tannins, it shows complex flavors of cherries, licorice, bacon, cola and Chinese Five Spice. Exotic and interesting, it should develop over the next 3–4 years.  — S.H.  (9/1/2011)

Goyette 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

  1. $24
A bit sharp, but polished and supple, with good varietal flavors of blackberries, currants, tobacco and a hint of heady crême de cassis liqueur. Seems at its best now, so drink up.  — S.H.  (9/1/2011)

Goyette 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon (Sonoma County)

  1. $25
This shows lots of blackberry and currant flavors, along with a polished jacket of smoky oak. It’s bone dry but a little heavy. Perfect for easy drinking when you need a nice Cabernet and don’t want to mortgage the house.  — S.H.  (12/1/2012)

You’ll find some good cherry, vanilla, cola and sandalwood flavors in this dry Pinot Noir. It’s on the light side, but is modest in alcohol, with an elegant mouthfeel.  — S.H.  (12/1/2012)

Goyette 2010 Chardonnay (Monterey County)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $25
Seemingly sweet and simple, this has buttery flavors of pineapple jam, white sugar and toast. A brisk cut of acidity provides a semblance of balance.  — S.H.  (12/1/2012)
