Both delicate and flavorful, this exceptional wine defines elegance. It starts with a subtly spicy ginger-cookie aroma that leads to layers of citrus, baking spices and toasted bread on the rich palate. After 18 years since the vintage, this still offers persistent, fine bubbles, bracing acidity and a fresh mouthfeel. - Wine Enthusiast (November 2018)

Delicate yet rich, with luxurious and mature baked apple, roasted hazelnut and toasted brioche flavors that slowly unfurl on a lingering finish. - Wine Spectator (October 2018)

This complex and mature wine shows how interesting and layered a fine sparkling wine can become with time. It was aged on the yeast lees for the extremely long period of 16 years before disgorging. Honey, butterscotch and grilled baguette aromas give way to rich mellow fruit and spice flavors and a creamy, mouth-filling texture livened by fine bubbles and mild acidity. - Wine Enthusiast (October 2018)

The most expensive wine of the group is the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon J. Davies Estate Jamie. I suspect this is the proprietors selection of the best barrels, and it is a special wine. Juicy, with loads of sucrosity, a dense purple color, and plenty of cassis, blueberry and black berry fruit, the wine is full-bodied, but at the same time, incredibly elegant and pure. Drink it over the next 20-25 years, although I wouldnt be surprised to see it last longer given its almost impeccable balance. - Wine Advocate (December 2016)

Blended of 65% Chardonnay and 35% Pinot Noir coming predominately from Sonoma, the 2009 J Schram Rose has a very pale salmon/amber color and pronounced potpourri, kirsch, apple pie and cinnamon stick nose.

Quite complex and subtly spicy, this elegant wine gives a full array of flavors, a crisp but polished texture and a wonderful lingering finish.

Polished and expressive, with bold brioche and strawberry aromas that open to silky and layered apple, graham cracker and spiced nut flavors. - Wine Spectator (August 2018)

Enticing aromas of toasted almond and pear tart lead to an equally seductive and complex palate that is dry but rich in feel. It has the complexity and layering of a wine aged a long time on the yeast, and shows excellent concentration that leads to a long, lingering finish. This is Schramsberg's top-of-theline Chardonnay-based wine and it definitely lives up to its billing in this vintage. - Wine Enthusiast (November 2018)

The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon J. Davies is another superdistinctive wine from Davies. Layers of dense, dark fruit make a strong opening statement. Rich, voluptuous and hedonistic, the 2015 is a decidedly bold wine....this is an attractive Cabernet from Davies. - Vinous (March 2018)

Crisp and elegant, this sophisticated wine has enticing mineral and bread-dough aromas, tiny bubbles that form a soothing mousse and bone-dry lemon, mineral and ginger flavors. It tastes steely at first sip and then slowly opens to more richness and depth. - Wine Enthusiast (August 2018)

Sourced mainly from Napa with some Mendocino, Sonoma and Marin fruit, the 100% Chardonnay 2006 Blanc de Blancs LD has a captivating nose of honeyed toast, dried apricots, preserved lemons and quince paste with touches of cashews, incense and anise.

This medium-bodied, steely and austere wine has a pale orange-gold color, citrus and green-apple aromas and crisp, dry flavors like grapefruit. It has light almond and earth accents and is driven by good acidity for a refreshing mouthfeel. Extra brut means truly dry, and this wine shows how appealing the style can be. - Wine Enthusiast (August 2018)

Made entirely from Chardonnay grapes grown in one site, the inaugural vintage of this cuvée is delicious. It offers a rich core of almond paste flavor, with inviting peach, apple and pear fruit tones, all while remaining light, bright and highlighted with wet stone and gravel. - Wine Enthusiast Buying Guide (July 2017)

Emphatically Blanc de Blancs in its firm, tight, brisk, yeasty, rich and austerely refined construction, this impressive bottling hits all the expected marks on the pathway from its precise aromas to its small and insistent bubbles and misses not a beat across the palate. It simply crackles with Blanc de Blancs vitality and can stand alone as an incisive sipper but perhaps is even better suited for service alongside a tangy, savory selection of nibbles. - Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine (December 2017)

Sparkling rich and bold, with a hint of age and complexity, offering apple skin, ginger and roasted almond flavors. Drink now. - Wine Spectator (July 2017)
