Nelson Family Vineyards 2009 Estate Grown Riesling (Mendocino)
- $16
Nelson Family Vineyards is quietly making some mighty nice aromatic white wines, all estate-grown from their property. This Riesling is opulent and fragrant with orange blossom and honey on the tongue, medium in weight with a little residual sugar (officially off-dry) and 12.6% alcohol.

Nelson Family Vineyards 2009 Estate Grown Orange Muscat (Mendocino)
- $21
Another exuberant white from Mendocino’s Nelson Family, this Muscat is exceedingly fragrant, mostly of sweet jasmine, peach and candied orange. Slightly sweet the estate-grown white still has acid and would pair well with something spicy, either Asian food, spiced shrimp or barbecued oysters.

Nelson Family Vineyards 2007 Top Row Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Mendocino)
- $42
Estate-grown, this Cab from the best rows within the family’s Clara Vineyard, is brick red and aromatically brickish as well, as well as smelling of black olive, cherry and cola spice, a coating of chocolate on its finish. Let it breathe.

Nelson Family Vineyards 2007 Estate Zinfandel (Mendocino)
- $23
This estate-grown inland Mendocino Zin has an inviting spiciness and is plenty briary with a full body of flavor but its high-alcohol level masks any other nuances.
