Waugh Cellars 2004 Indindoli Vineyard Reserve Chardonnay (Russian River Valley)
- $40
Impressive for the enormous depth and range of the fruit, which is a blast of pineapple custard, kiwi, Key lime pie, and the ripest, sweetest white peach, all of it coated in fine, toasty oak. This is a big Chardonnay that calls for rich fare, like lobster.

Waugh Cellars 2004 Indindoli Vineyard Chardonnay (Russian River Valley)
- $30
Not quite as rich or complex as the Reserve, but close on its heels, with well-ripened tropical fruit flavors accented by spicy, toasty oak. This is a classic California cool-climate Chard, with bright, zesty acidity.

Waugh Cellars 2005 Indindoli Vineyard Chardonnay (Russian River Valley)
- $30
Classic RRV Chard, bright in minerally acids, with a spectrum of flavors including pineapples, green apples, peaches and papayas. Lots of spicy, toasty oak, too.

Waugh Cellars 2008 Fazio Vineyard Riesling (Santa Barbara County)
- Online Exclusive
- $32
First thing to know about this Riesling is that it’s sweet. Not super-sweet, but definitely off-dry. With balancing acidity, it offers fresh, savory flavors of citrus fruits, pears, honeysuckle, butter, vanilla and minerals. A good evocation of a ripe California Riesling.

Waugh Cellars 2001 Susy's Cuvée Sauvignon Blanc (Napa Valley)
- $18
So ripe and soft, it’s hard to believe this is Sauvignon Blanc. Anise-tinged guava, pear and other ripe tree fruits mingle on the palate, finishing gently. Its delicate and low-acid nature argues for drinking soon, probably on its own.

Waugh Cellars 2002 Indindoli Vineyard Chardonnay (Russian River Valley)
- $28
A rather lean, citrusy Chard, and with high acidity. There was no malolactic fermentation. Flavors of limes, honeydew and apples drink clean and bright, and there is little oak influence beyond the creamy texture.

Waugh Cellars 2002 Susy's Cuvee Sauvignon Blanc (Napa Valley)
- $24
Pleasant and easy, with no special complexity, but offering a nice mélange of dry lemon and lime flavors. There’s a creamy texture from barrel fermentation, and a good spicy mouthfeel.

Waugh Cellars 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $45
Ripe and juicy, with upfront blackberry, cherry, cocoa and cassis flavors that finish thoroughly dry, with a trace of raisins. This nice Cab has some gritty tannins to cut through meats and cheeses.
