Dalton 2004 Martin Vineyard Pinot Noir (Carneros)
- $25
Carneros Pinot near its best. Crisply soft and balanced, it’s simply delicious; a silky, velvety wine with a mouth-watering wealth of cherry pie filling, cola, mocha, cinnamon spice and toasty oak flavors that go on and on, and finish long and intense. Best now–2008.

Dalton 2003 Martin Vineyard Pinot Noir (Carneros)
- $25
Showing its age, with the mouthfeel softening and the fruit slowly turning dry and brittle. But it’s an interesting, complex wine, and the flavors, of Chinese black tea and cherry-teased cola, are classic older Pinot. Drink now.

Dalton 2007 Dalton Vineyard Marsanne-Roussanne White (Calaveras County)
- $30
An interesting, exotic wine, full-bodied and rich. The blend of these two southern Rhône varieties has resulted in a creamy wine with waves of flavors, including baked peaches, apricots, vanilla, honeysuckle and sweet cloves.

Made in the style of Port, this sweet red wine serves up spicy rich, raspberry, chocolate, coffee, plum, vanilla, tea and herb flavors, all couched in firm tannins. Toast and caramel frame the finish. Kosher

Dalton 2002 Reserve Chardonnay (Galilee)

Smooth and viscous, with some pretty high-toned toast upfront. Vanilla, peach, apple, pear and Mandarin orange are at the core, finishing with a bright punch. Kosher.

Dalton 2000 Reserve Merlot (Galilee)
- Kosher
- $37
A bright wine with a cherry core framed by firm tannins. Herbal overtones, licorice, coffee and tea notes add interest. On the finish, it remains fairly bright. Kosher

Dalton 1999 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Galilee)
- Kosher
- $37
A bit earthy and weedy, but nonetheless, it harbors some pleasing plum and black cherry notes. Tannins are ripe and the finish is moderate in length.

Dalton 2000 Merlot (Galilee)
- Kosher
- $24
Kicks off with a distinct vegetal aroma, this is classic “cold-climate” wine. Herbal notes with stewed fruits take center stage. Reminds me a bit of some Chinons. Interesting, though not for everyone. Kosher.
