Jaxon Keys NV Farmhouse Red (Mendocino County)
- $15
Jaxon Keys is a new Mendocino County producer operating out of the former Jepson Winery, which has been completely redone. One of its first wines, this nonvintage Rhône-inspired blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 20% Petite Sirah, has a pleasing nose full of red and blackberry fruit with a dollop of earthiness and good acid. Stainless-steel fermented.

Jaxon Keys 2009 Sauvignon Blanc (Mendocino County)
- $15
A great first effort from the new Jaxon Keys winery’s estate Sauvignon Blanc vineyard, with green apple, pear, ripe melon and honey prominent throughout the wine’s rich, creamy texture, with just a touch of key lime. A great example of inland Mendocino Sauvignon Blanc.

Jaxon Keys 2009 Estate Viognier (Mendocino County)
- $16
A light, easy Viognier that’s not oily like some versions of this variety, but pleasingly tropical, smelling of pineapple and guava with ripe melon on the finish.

Jaxon Keys 2007 Peterson Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Mendocino County)
- Online Exclusive
- $24
The Ukiah Valley gets hot, no doubt, but 15.8% alcohol on a Mendocino Cabernet is still hard to take. This wine is very tightly wound, a little hot, a little flabby with a minty, cedar nose and flavors of blackberry and chocolate that eventually come through.
