Fonty's Pool 2005 Single Vineyard Chardonnay (Pemberton)

  • Best Buy
  1. $15
This may be a bit difficult to find as only 25 cases (out of 3,500) were imported, but those lucky enough to stumble across some should snap up this outstanding bargain. Smoky, toasty, vanilla notes frame ample peach and citrus flavors, finishing with good length and intensity. Imported by American Wine Distributors.  — J.C.  (6/1/2008)

Fonty's Pool 2005 Single Vineyard Shiraz (Pemberton)

  1. $15
An easy-to-drink Shiraz that boasts mixed-berry aromas accented by touches of woodsmoke and cinnamon. It’s medium in body and amply endowed with blackberry flavors that finish crisp and tangy. Drink now and over the next few years.  — J.C.  (12/31/2008)

Fonty's Pool 2007 Single Vineyard Chardonnay (Pemberton)

  1. $15
Lavishly oaked but with enough fruit concentration to bring fresh lime zest and green apple aromas to the front. Full-bodied, with a citrus juiciness that trails off to a mineral edge. Drink now.  — W.E.  (6/1/2010)

Fonty's Pool 2008 Single Vineyard Pinot Noir (Pemberton)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $15
This a pretty good effort for the price, offering authentic Pinot Noir scents of ripe cherries, marked by hints of bacon and briar. It’s plump and round in the mouth, just somewhat lacking in textural richness.  — J.C.  (8/1/2009)

Fonty's Pool 2006 Single Vineyard Viognier (Pemberton)

  1. $15
This starts off a little reductive, with tarry, burnt-rubber aromas that are frankly offputting. But a aeration works wonders, and this wine opens up to reveal hints of toasted almonds, melon and citrus, all supported by a crisp finish. Imported by American Wine Distributors.  — J.C.  (9/1/2008)

Fonty's Pool 2003 Shiraz (Pemberton)

  1. $18
Broad on the nose with a pretty dried-spice aroma. Texture is pulpy and chewy, with tangy oak on the finish. A good wine, but one that is missing a deeper layer.  — D.T.  (6/1/2006)

Fonty's Pool 2007 Single Vineyard Cabernet Merlot (Pemberton)

  1. $13
This smoothly textured, medium-bodied blend features decent length and freshness allied to aromas and flavors of crushed tomato leaf and cassis. Imported by American Wine Distributors.  — J.C.  (11/1/2009)
