Robledo 2006 Fifth Edition Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

  1. $80
Made in the modern cult style, this Cabernet is softly luscious, oaky and enormously rich. It shows ripe, almost sweet flavors of blackberries, raspberries and cassis, and ends with a spicy finish. A big, powerfully luscious wine that could pick up bottle complexities over the next few years.  — S.H.  (9/1/2011)

Robledo 2007 El Rey Cabernet Sauvignon (Red Hills Lake County)

  1. $38
Another lovely Cab out of Red Hills Lake County, with nice tart cherry and dusty flavors, this wine is still quite tannic with good structure to age. The Sonoma-based Robledo family is making more and more wine from Red Hills, this one a tribute to patriarch Reynaldo "El Rey" Robledo.  — V.B.  (11/1/2011)

Robledo 2007 Los Braceros Red (Sonoma Valley)

  1. $30
A delicious, easy wine to drink now. It’s soft and fruity, with lots of candied raspberries, blackberries, anise, cocoa and spices. The wine is a tribute to the Braceros, Mexicans who were invited to California to work the fields during World War II.  — S.H.  (9/1/2011)

Robledo 2008 Rancho Rincon Pinot Noir (Los Carneros)

  1. $40
Huge in flavor, with massive flavors of sweet, ripe raspberries and cherries. Oak barrel aging is evident, giving even richer layers of vanilla and caramel. Delicious and spicy, if a little obvious. Drink now.  — S.H.  (11/1/2011)

Robledo 2008 Chardonnay (Los Carneros)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $38
A rich wine, flamboyant and generous, but there’s too much oak. It reeks of butterscotch, caramel, crème brûlée and vanilla flavors. Underneath all that is fine good pineapple and pear fruit.  — S.H.  (9/1/2011)

Robledo 2000 Pinot Noir (Carneros)

  1. $27
Quite cherry-like in the nose. On the palate, it’s smooth and fairly silky, packing more bright cherry flavors, tinged with vanilla and spice. A bit peppery on the finish. Not complex, but quite pleasant.  — J.M.  (7/1/2003)

Robledo 2011 Seven Brothers Sauvignon Blanc (Lake County)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $22
This is a slightly sweet Sauvignon Blanc that’s shy on the nose, without much depth or breadth.  — V.B.  (10/1/2012)

Robledo 2002 The Seven Brothers Sauvignon Blanc (Lake County)

  1. $12
A mild-mannered Sauvignon Blanc, with a hint of candied lemon peel at its core. Acidity seems a bit low for this variety, while the simple flavors come up short.  — J.M.  (10/1/2004)
