Jax 2008 Y3 Sauvignon Blanc (Napa Valley)
- $17
A pretty, polished Sauvignon Blanc for drinking as a cocktail sipper with all kinds of zesty appetizers. It’s dryish and crisp in acidity, with rich flavors of pineapples, lemons, kiwi fruit, limes and vanilla.

Jax 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $42
Here’s a ripe, exuberantly fruity Cabernet that tastes like a pastry dessert melted into wine. But it’s dry. Delicious for its buttery, baked pie crust flavors of black cherries and cola. Seems best now and for a few years.

Jax 2005 Y3 Syrah (Napa Valley)
- $29
Marked by jammy fruit and high acidity, this Syrah is strong in cherries, raspberries and oak. It’s not especially subtle, but it is pretty and polished, and could even acquire bottle complexity over the next 3–4 years.

Jax 2009 Y3 Chardonnay (Napa Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $19
Made in the modern style of lots of ripe tropical fruit, green apple and creamy oak flavors, this Chardonnay is uplifted by bright, citrusy acidity. Drink it now.

Jax 2007 Y3 Sauvignon Blanc (Napa Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $16
There’s a beautiful Sauvignon Blanc in here somewhere, with crisp acidity and rich flavors of pineapples, lemongrass and vanilla. Unfortunately, the wine is just too sugary sweet. It’s almost off-dry, which is a no-no.

Jax 2007 Y3 Chardonnay (Napa Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
Too sweet and oaky for comfort, with caramelized flavors of pineapple and apple juice that finish with a white sugar aftertaste.
