The Russian River today is almost synonymous with the best Pinot and Chardonnay in the country but it wasn’t always so. When David Bynum and wife Dorothy first purchased their 83-acre ranch in 1971 – the area was mostly overrun with high-producing varieties of cheap Merlot grown in prolific quantities.
But Bynum and team had a different vision. He wanted to create the best wines possible, not what would be easy to sell on the bulk market. So in 1973 he single-handedly set in motion a new standard in RRV single vineyard Pinot & Chardonnay to this day by bottling the first one ever. About that very first vintage – Davis was coy, it was “really good, surprisingly good” he said.
His pioneering spirit didn’t stop there and he eventually built a winemaking dream team to help support his vision. First he hired Gary Farrell to head up the continued improvement of his single-vineyard Pinot Program. Not only did Gary stop at nothing to bring Davis Bynum wines to the absolute forefront of quality, as you probably know by now, he did ok when he hung up his own shingle.
When Gary left, Davis and company filled his large footsteps with a winemaking icon in David Ramey whose hands are all over today’s single-vineyard Chardonnay stunner.

This is a huge favorite of folks in the Red Bank area. It’s a bold, unapologetic Chardonnay with juicy notes of peach, lemon sorbet, baking spice and vanilla with a rich, creamy middle and plenty of natural acidity to balance it out. The lemon vanilla finish is perhaps the wine’s calling card or the sheer drinkability of it all. Either way, it’s a Chard that people adore. It’s no wonder Wine Enthusiast called this, “a big win for fans of this bold style”.
We’re nearing the end of what was a flawlessly crafted, high energy coastal Chardonnay release from one of California’s hottest spots. It’s still every bit as bright and refreshing as you could want and it hits with clean, pristine green apple fruits, pears and citrus notes with a hint of that limestone-influenced minerality. It’s a fantastic wine for all seasons, the perfect pair with mixed seafood, summer tomatoes, corn and freshly caught fish.
Every year, Pierre Sparr’s Alsacian Riesling is one of the top scoring wines in the under $20 category. There’s a consistency there and consumers know they can count on a Riesling that is aromatic, fruity, elegant, clean and vibrant. Pierre Sparr wines are extremely food-friendly especially in the widely praised 2021 vintage where quality rose to an all-time high. It’s a bone-dry beauty with layers of citrus fruits, framed by wet stone and mineral character that adds dimension.
This is a super elegant Meursault from the family-run estate located in the village of Monthelie, between Volnay and Meursault in the heart of Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune. It leads with nutty aromas of brioche, fresh butter and delicate citrus and is extremely well structured, long and stylish with great purity of fruit.
