Baron Herzog 2004 Kosher Special Reserve Syrah (Edna Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- Kosher
- $30
This wine shows real varietal character, in the Northern Rhône sense of a fairly tannic, dry offering, but also is true Edna Valley in the brisk acids and purity of fruit. Has that hard-to-describe quality of elegant complexity that is the first duty of wine. Drink now through 2010.

Baron Herzog 2008 Chardonnay (Central Coast)
- Editors' Choice
- $13
Made in a food-friendly fashion, this Chard is dry, acidic and minerally. It was obviously picked at lower ripeness, but still shows a warm core of pineapples and green apples. Quite a nice wine for Chardonnay fans to drink with roasted chicken, fleshy fish, or even a white meat such as pork.

Baron Herzog 2005 Special Reserve Late Harvest Chenin Blanc (Clarksburg)
- $16
With 15.2% residual sugar, this will satisfy your sweet tooth. The flavors are of apricot jam and vanilla, and are brightened with crisp acidity. Nice with apple pie à la mode.

Baron Herzog 2002 Chenin Blanc (Clarksburg)
- Best Buy
- $7
This wine, from a leading kosher winery, is rich in apricot, peach, lime, kiwi and nectarine fruit, and is without the wax-bean quality that can plague wines made from this variety. This version is not quite dry yet not quite sweet, and pairs perfectly with a salad of mixed greens, blue cheese and ripe pears.

This is one of the better SBs out there at this price. It’s dry and crisp in layers of citrus fruits, apricots, tart green apples, white pepper and a flowery, honeysuckle taste, flavors that change all the time.

Baron Herzog 2001 Zinfandel (Lodi)

Smoky, charry notes kick off here, backed by hints of black cherry, plum, raspberry and herbs. The wine is relatively smooth on the palate, with a toasty licorice note at the end.

Baron Herzog 2001 Old Vine Zinfandel (Lodi)
- $13
Fruity and intense in blackberries, black cherries, leather, sweet cocoa and peppery spices, and totally dry, this is a mouth-filling Zin. It’s soft and gentle, with a finish that’s just slightly sweet.

Baron Herzog 2003 Syrah (California)
- $13
Direct and fruity, this is a bit simple but ultimately satisfying wine that would be at home with burgers or other uncomplicated fare. Black cherry and blackberry flavors pick up just a hint of pepper on the finish. Kosher.
