Joullian Family Reserve Sauvignon Blanc (Carmel Valley Estate) 2006
Brilliant,pale straw-green color. Effusive pomello and minerally nose is complexed by a hint of gooseberry. Rich, crisp pomello, Asian pear, and key lime flavors broaden into a creamy mid-palette that leads to a very long, crisp grapefruit and gooseberry-tinged finish.

$6/$30

Cloudline Pinot Noir-Oregon 2006
The 2006 Cloudline is deep ruby red, a sign of its classic Pinot Noir character. On the palate, the wine is soft and round, with a delightful core of cherries and red fruits. The structure is perhaps even a bit better than the much-admired 2005 Cloudline, and the overall fruit-forwardness makes for a wine that is thoroughly enjoyable now and for the next several years to come.
