Gundlach Bundschu 2009 Heritage Selection Estate Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
- $55
This is the most expensive Pinot Noir from Gundlach Bundschu in many years, maybe ever, but it’s also easily their best. It’s absolutely delicious in cherries, pomegranates and spices, with a wonderful earthiness that grounds it. So silky and complex, so rewarding to drink now. Great to see this veteran winery coming out with a wine this fine.

Gundlach Bundschu 2008 Estate Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Sonoma Valley)
- $40
Here’s a Cabernet that’s so easy to drink, you’ll drain the bottle. It’s soft, smooth and silky and just plain delicious. Offers waves of ripe cherries, blackberries, cassis, plums and dark chocolate, leading to a long, dry finish. The estate vineyard is in the southern, cooler part of the valley, hard by the Carneros.

Gundlach Bundschu 1997 Rhinefarm Vineyards Pinot Noir (Sonoma Valley)
- $18
Displays fine complexity on the nose with cherry, licorice, cocoa, and vanilla/caramel aromas. A sexy, rich mouthfeel and impressive depth of fruit. Closes with a dense finish of good length, with some spicy and even slightly bitter-almond nuances.

Gundlach Bundschu 2010 Estate Vineyard Gewürztraminer (Sonoma Coast)
- Editors' Choice
- $23
A very nice example of a dry Gewürz. Name an exotic spice, and you’ll find it here, especially cinnamon. The fruit is all about oranges, pears and lychee, while acidity is brisk and fine. Will challenge home chef and sommelier pairing talent. Pork and stewed fruit come to mind.

Gundlach Bundschu 2009 Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
- $34
Ripe fruit and new oak combine for lush, complex flavors in this dramatic young Pinot Noir. It shows real flair in the raspberry, cherry and cola flavors, with vanilla and buttered cinnamon toast from aging in French barrels. Easy to like now for its silky texture and long, pure spicy finish.

Gundlach Bundschu 2004 Rhinefarm Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sonoma Valley)
- $32
The vineyard is right where southern Sonoma Valley meets Carneros, so it’s not as hot as you might think. This rewarding wine is very ripe, brimming in cherry pie, cola, vanilla and cinnamon spice flavors, in a texture that’s both silky and meaty, which may be a contradiction, but it means it’s complex. What a versatile food wine.

Gundlach Bundschu 2001 Rhinefarm Vineyard Zinfandel (Sonoma Valley)
- $32
Smooth textured and sleek on the palate. The wine serves up a tangy-edged blend of black cherry, raspberry, vanilla, plum, licorice and herb flavors that stay with you long on the finish. A good wine from an old family winery.

Gundlach Bundschu 2008 Estate Vineyard Gewürztraminer (Sonoma Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $21
A beautifully dry Gewürz that shows the variety’s exotic, spicy personality, and frames it in a crisp texture of acidity and minerality. Brims with stimulating flavors of lychee, peaches, mangos, apples, honeysuckle flower and just about every spice you can name. Right up there with the best.
