Field Stone 1997 Staten Family Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Sonoma County)
- $38
Fine clarity of fruit, with coffee, cherry and nicely utilized oak. Intense flavors of blackberry, plum and cedar mark the palate, which displays a full texture. The long, smooth and tangy finish wraps it up nicely. Drinks well now; will be even better after two or three years.

Field Stone 2007 Staten Family Reserve Petite Sirah (Alexander Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $35
Big, tough, gutsy, fruity, tannic. In other words, Petite Sirah, and classic at that. Shows very ripe, deep and long-lasting flavors of blackberries, blueberries, currants, chocolate, cedar and spices, in a bone-dry, full-bodied red wine. Good now, and should develop over a decade.

Field Stone 2002 Staten Family Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Alexander Valley)
- Cellar Selection
- $40
Lovely young Cab, with that softly tannic, earthy, dried herb and cherry thing that so distinguishes Alexander Valley. The wine has an elegance and refinement that make it fine now for upscale food, but it should age well and improve for a decade.

Field Stone 2000 Staten Family Reserve Chardonnay (Russian River Valley)
- $22
Extracted and bold, a big wine with ripe flavors of spiced green apples and sweet pears. Spices are Asian, plus some nutmeg and cinnamon. Dry and rich, with a strong overlay of oak.

Field Stone 2003 Syrah (Alexander Valley)
- $22
Cedary and savory on the nose, then delivers cherry-berry fruit accented by leather and more cedar. It’s relatively structured for a California Syrah despite not being a heavyweight, so hold it 2–3 years, then drink it over the next five.

Field Stone 1998 Chardonnay (Sonoma County)
- $16
The bouquet is different from the flock, featuring pungent grapefruit and a hint of flowers. The flavor is sweet with ripe pineapple, and it finishes slightly woody and buttery. It’s a definite departure from the norm, which helps it out in the long run.

Field Stone 2009 Redwood Ranch Vineyard Select Sauvignon Blanc (Alexander Valley)
- $20
Nicely dry and crisp in acidity, with good varietal flavors of lemons, limes, grapefruits, green grass and white pepper. There’s also a lot of feline emission, so if you’re sensitive to that, you won’t like it.

Field Stone 2002 Sauvignon Blanc (Alexander Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $14
A bit of grass and straw, some lemony citrus, a riper streak of pear and melon and some spices make up this easy, spicy wine. It’s dry and brisk with acids, and has some spritziness.
