Artevino 2005 Reserve Chardonnay (Mendocino)
- $32
There’s a succulent richness to this Burgundian-inspired Chard that makes it delicious. It’s bright in acids, the main ingredient needed to balance the opulent pineapple, peach, yellow apricot vanilla custard and smoky oak flavors. Creamy and dry, it provides pleasure all the way through.

Artevino 2006 Largo Ridge Zinfandel (Mendocino County)
- $26
Classic warm-climate Zin, showing a soft, velvety texture housing fruity-ripe flavors of blackberries, cherries, melted milk chocolate, black pepper, anise and cinnamon. Easy to drink because it’s so tasty.

Artevino 2005 Largo Ridge Zinfandel (Mendocino County)
- Online Exclusive
- $26
Technically, the wine is too soft and hot for balance, but it’s so luscious, so enjoyable, you can’t help but like it. The flavors just swarm all over the palate, offering cherries, blueberries, cola, violets, leather, bacon, carob and Asian spices, and the finish is satisfyingly complex and dry.

Artevino 2005 Lost Creek Pinot Noir (Yorkville Highlands)
- $32
Dry and rather tough in tannins, this may be one to cellar. It shows bitter cherryskin, cola and tobacco flavors, enhanced with oak, in a smooth, complex texture. Could do interesting things over the next five years, but who knows? The appellation, on a high plateau of coastal Mendocino County, has yet to define itself.
