Tobias has been making huge waves with the California wine press achieving consistently high scores for the Cabernets (particularly the one drawn from their Howell Mountain property). But those are relatively easy to get your hands on; the one that’s much more difficult to acquire is their tiny 1,500 case production labor-of-love called Lexi’s Estate Sauvignon Blanc.
Drawn from two just special blocks of the family’s estate – that have been farmed by the Paulis for over 100 years – Lexi’s Estate begun as a fun family project to work on with their daughter Lexi. It’s clear the Foreman/Pauli family held absolutely nothing back in crafting a wine with the next generation of the family.
Lexi’s Estate is a delight on the nose with bright citrus notes, key lime pie, and little honey dew. The mouth is bright and expressive, crisp and dry. Perfect with any seafood really but particularly the grilled shrimp I had a bottle with recently. It’s also a great one to enjoy in a chilled glass on its own.

I’m lucky to have a few cases of this instant classic, immaculate and complex, this is a wonderfully pure expression of Chardonnay that is so distinctly Jermann. His extraordinary, multi-layered, extract-loaded whites are landmarks of contemporary winemaking. This one has a lot of nuance and depth, and finishes strongly with what Wine Spectator called, “A streak of tangy salinity.”
The newly released 2021 Brunori ‘Le Gemme’ Verdichio is everything you’re looking for in a vibrant, food-friendly white wine. About a billion times better than every-day Pinot Grigio, the Brunori is an electric, vibrant white which combines delicious fruit and vibrancy with boasts a killer nose of white peach, honeycomb and almonds. The fruit is wonderfully concentrated with a salty, stony finish that goes forever. The best part of this beauty is that it’s not just a summer wine- it’s absolutely delicious year round.
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.
For those of you looking for a semi-dry Riesling to pair with seafood, salads, pastas or poultry, you don’t have to look any further. Ratzenberger is a benchmark in the region and their consistency in making expressive, classy Riesling continues with the newly released 2019 Kabintt Feinherb. It manages to bring to the table savory, sweet and tangy acidic notes. It’s a versatile bottle of white, that’s for sure.
