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 an electric white Burgundy, with a limestone-laced aromatic profile of green apple, pear and hazelnut. Refined and high-toned, the pure, delicious fruit that is a hallmark of this terrific vintage, finishes long and fresh, with a mile-long mineral streak.
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.
Just in time, we got back Vincent Ricard’s all-time great white wine bargain. This is a crisp, clean and flat out delicious Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc. The protege to the Silex-style of Dagueneau – who over the last 15 years has produced flawless and beloved white wines that at last count were on the wine lists of over 36 Michelin-starred restaurants. This is a great house white and one that can surely hold its own with just about everything on the table.
Stephan Steinmetz is a star in the Mosel wine region. His old vines are rooted in Kimmeridgian limestone, the exact same vein of rock that winds its way from Sancerre through Chablis and Champagne to its final out-cropping here in the Obermosel. His Elbling is glorious — both completely unlike anything I’ve ever had and also eerily familiar. The color is almost clear, some might call it silver. A stunning nose of green apples and lemon peel gives way to fresh pear and bright citrus fruits on the palate. It’s a stunningly focused wine with a healthy dose of minerality and acid zip, not unlike great Sancerre/Chablis and bone dry.
