The history of Kenwood Vineyards is really a story about the pioneer spirit and embracing the wild. This is easily seen in their acquisition of vineyards – many on the outskirts of viability – and almost all claimed long before the now household name AVAs came into being and to encompass them.
Whether its their original homestead – a 1970’s outpost in Sonoma on the site of the former Pagani Brothers Ranch or their purchase of Jack London’s (yes – of White Fang fame) historic Sonoma Mountain property in 1976 or the others that now rattle off like a where’s where of the county: Ricioli and Olivet Vineyards in the Russian River, Andrew’s and Yoakim Bridge in the Dry Creek, and more.
The prize jewels – by any standard are their holdings that sprinkle through the nefarious & nebulous AVA called the Sonoma Coast which encompasses parts of the RRV along with Carneros. Two wines are drawn off of these tiny holdings – cherry picked from the very best vineyards.
This is just a beautifully balanced and super food-friendly offering – perfect for the warm days ahead. Crisp acidity and bright citrus are followed by a refreshing finish that begs for the next sip. Better yet, when you lock into a case, you lock into the best price per bottle of anybody in the country. Not too shabby for a 92-point beauty.

Distinctive and stylish, this white offers bold passionfruit, gooseberry and lemon verbena notes on a crisp frame, with white pepper, dried pineapple and candied ginger notes on the long finish. A precise thread of acidity weaves in and out and a touch of lanolin lingers. Drink now.

It’s hard to beat a great value white wine and this one is a at least a cut above the rest. One prominant industry insider called the 2022 edition, “the best white wine by any within $20/cs of this price.” It’s super crisp with a great mineral streak, and was carefully picked by hand when the temperature is coolest and is kept cool all the way into the press. From there, the effect of the mineral soil takes over, providing great finesse and freshness in every bottle. This white blend has great backbone and a lot of juicy fruit coming through behind aromas of flowers and stone fruits. At this price, it’s a no brainer.
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.
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.

“The 2018 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard marks the beginning of winemaker Joe Nielsen’s tenure at the winery. Pouring a medium yellow with a light golden hue, it’s most reserved of the flight aromatically at the moment, with yellow chamomile flowers, ripe peach, beeswax, and white flowers. Full-bodied, it retains excellent tension and focus on the palate, with apricot, orange zest, and a savory finish with a bit of spice. I suspect this will come around and open with time. Drink 2024-2030.” -Jeb Dunnuck
