Gamble Family Vineyards 2006 Old Vine Syrah (St. Helena)
- Editors' Choice
- $36
Meaty and leathery, with sweet, salty bacon notes meshing with intense wild blackberry fruit, this Syrah is delicious and sexy. The tannins are wonderfully plush and refined, like satin. It’s perfect to drink now with short ribs of beef or any kind of beef or lamb stew.

Gamble Family Vineyards 2006 Family Home Cabernet Sauvignon (Oakville)
- Cellar Selection
- $60
There’s a wild quality to the fruit, as if the blackberries and cherries were picked in some sunny hollow in a eucalyptus forest. The wine is streamlined and intense, with focused, chiseled tannins. Showing superb balance and an unerring sense of control, it should develop in the bottle over the next 8–10 years.

Gamble Family Vineyards 2006 Paramount Red (Napa Valley)
- $60
This softly rich, smooth red wine is a blend of unidentified varieties. It’s intricately layered in blackberries, bacon, tobacco, mocha, sandalwood and spice flavors, wrapped into firm and gentle tannins. Drink now, with rich fare.

Gamble Family Vineyards 2009 Gamble Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc (Yountville)
- Online Exclusive
- $28
A little too heavy in winemaker intervention. Shows the hand of oak, the funk of lees and a soft, buttery texture. This all dominates the citrus fruit and makes the wine ponderous.

Gamble Family Vineyards 2008 Gamble Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc (Yountville)
- Online Exclusive
- $28
The combination of a cool vintage and this appellation, in the cooler southern part of Napa, have yielded a bone-dry, crisp wine. Its flavors are of limes, lemons and grapefruits, with a touch of gooseberry and tart pyrazines.
