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.

One of the best places to look for great Tuesday nighters are the sandy, limestone-laden hills of Asti. And within Asti, there is no white wine calling card that holds a candle to Moscato. Here it is king. Gianni Doglia naturally farms a tiny estate in the picturesque hamlet of Castagnole Lanze. His Moscato is the product of old vines, vinfied without oak to preserve its incredible fruit. This is serious, high-quality and hand-harvested Moscat, that oozes with sweet tropical fruits and a hint of minerality that stays on your tongue with each sip. This is also the perfect wine for anyone searching for a low alcohol option as well.
The newly released Riesling Feinherb 2021 is a lively, juicy wine with an elegant bouquet of minerals, wet stone and ripe fruit. On the palate, the wine’s slight off-dry component is beautifully balanced by the steely acidity typical of the Mosel. Because this is freshly released, the fruit is vibrant and succulent and it comes in somewhere between off-dry and semi-sweet. It’s a great example of Riesling, especially at the price.

“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

“Soaring lemon cream aromatics accented by notes of sea spray, lemongrass and beeswax mark this coastal Chardonnay from Flowers on the Sonoma Coast. The palate is fresh and linear. Oyster shell salinity, bee pollen and grilled lemon make for a savoury balance with delicate crushed chalk minerality.”
