Pont de Chevalier 2009 Sauvignon Blanc (Knights Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $40
Picture-perfect coastal California Sauvignon Blanc, dry and crisp in acidity, with mouthwatering flavors of citrus fruits, tart green apples and minerals. Really elegant, with a steely streamlined framework that makes it super versatile at the table.

Pont de Chevalier 2008 Sauvignon Blanc (Knights Valley)
- $40
Only a little oak on this wine, so the mass is provided by the fruit, which is extraordinarily ripe and potent. The wine explodes in the mouth, with pineapple, tangerine, lime, peach, acacia flower and honey flavors. The winemaker suggests pairing with blue cheese, and the sweetness combined with acidity suggests this is true.

Pont de Chevalier 2009 Chardonnay (Knights Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $45
A fine followup to the 2008, this Chardonnay, from a high valley between Sonoma County and Napa Valley, combines rich tropical fruit with good acidity and an earthiness that grounds it. Feels complex in the mouth, taking the California style and wrestling it to elegance.

Pont de Chevalier 2010 Chardonnay (Knights Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $45
This takes ripe fruit and oak influence to the limits, with powerful flavors of buttered toast, pineapple, orange jam and vanilla-cream. This defines the flashy style of California Chardonnay, with a honeyed finish.

Pont de Chevalier 2010 Sauvignon Blanc (Knights Valley)
- $40
The chilly vintage took its toll on this wine, giving it a wintergreen-minty, grassy taste that’s very strong, overlaying the lime and pink grapefruit flavors. It’s very dry and crisp in acidity.
