Bob MacDonnell’s Round Pond Estate in Rutherford is a sight to behold if you’ve never been. The tasting room is stunning but work your way through to the rooftop deck area. It provides an unbelievable view of the valley floor unlike any other. You can look out over the 250-acre property and even check out the neighbors on each side, Beckstoffer’s Georges III on one side and Caymus on the other.
Of course, on my last visit there I was perfectly content sitting there looking out at the vista and feeling the light warmth from the fireplace when Thomas Rivers Brown grabbed me and hurriedly rushed me into the back. Was the 25 time 100-point score juggernaut going to give me an exclusive taste of his next perfect Cabernet?
No – that was old hat. His latest obsession centered around a small adjacent parcel of Chardonnay he had been working with for a couple of years and hoped to officially release in a future year. For now, much like the “Tractor Shed Red” from so long ago, this would remain a clandestine project just for friends and family or Kith and Kin, if you will.
This is the culmination of that tiny project, finally ready for its inaugural release. Having already received a gushing 93 point review from the Tasting Panel, the Thomas Rivers Brown 2020 Round Pound Kith and Kin Chardonnay is simply delightful.

“A debut variety for this label. Stainless steel fermented and aged for five months, it was pressed whole cluster, crémant style which resulted in fine acidity and an inner sunshine. Its just-sliced lemon- fresh nose sends one to a perfectly balanced palate. Melon, guava, and banana are glossy and clean. The stony mid-to-finish leaves a trace of terroir on the tongue.”

From just west of Sancerre, Vincent’s vines are tended organically in flint-laden, calcareous soil which lends a great brightness to the wine. The wine is crisp and aromatic Sauvignon, and is a superb choice for a “cocktail” wine, as an aperitif or to accompany just about anything from sea.
Glistening pale yellow-green to the rim, infused with mouth-watering aromas of ripe apple, pear and quince, and crushed almonds with honey and rich creamy middle and a fantastic rush of acidity and minerality that are present throughout. A calling card of Bonhomme’s Vire-Clesse, if you closed your eyes and took a sip, it would have you convinced you were drinking Meursault at least a 3x price tag.
The Zenato family has built up quite the reputation for delivering exceptional value with their red and whites in Veneto. Their Pinot Grigio is a particularly great value, punching way above its weight class. Delicately scented and soft on the palate, it offers classic citrus and floral notes in a balanced elegant style. It’s smooth and refreshing with a long, pleasant finish. Great with food.
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.
