Michael Mondavi’s Folio Fine Wine Partners now offers an Oregon Pinot Noir, this one vinified by Rob Mondavi, a fourth- generation winemaker. Pale and elegantly styled, it shows refined winemaking skills and a European sensibility. Pungently herbal, this supple wine brings young fruit flavors of cranberry and raspberry, but shows ageworthy depth and persistence. It’s the sort of subtle, classic style that rewards both time and attention.

Made in a different style from most Sonoma Chards, this wine is less about fruit than minerals. It has a steely mouthfeel, with mouthwatering acidity and hints of citrus zest. Could almost be a Sauvignon Blanc.

This is one of the drier blush wines out there, with an interesting melange of herb, apple, peach and tobacco flavors. Try it with bruschetta, grilled veggies or a nice grilled salmon steak.

This oddly named wine captures the spirit of Sonoma Chard. It’s crisp and fruity, with a dollop of oak and dry finish that includes some dusty tannins.

This is a light but classy take on Oregon Pinot, with leaf and herb in front of spicy cranberry and sour cherry fruit. The balance is fine-tuned and the wine carries the elegance of the grape through a persistent finish.

This blush is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, and may serve as a lesson in why Cab doesn’t make great rosé. It’s too heavy and full-bodied, with dense cassis flavors that are closer to red wine. But it’s clean, balanced and dry.

Heavy and soft. Plenty of jammy cherry and raspberry flavor, but rather inert. Drink now.
