Helfer Vineyard Chardonnay 2020

I can see why this wine is so highly rated. Lemon curd, floral and citrus notes in very subtle elegant style make it both unusual and very pleasant. They say the densely planted vines and hand cultivation generates more concentrated fruit vs typical CA spacing. Unfined and unfiltered gives it some nice texture but not overly so. Would never guess this is from the RRV. $45 CT91 made just 130 cases. — 8 days ago

Last bottle — opened for an old friend and like the PN alongside, this was a stunner, nearly flawless. Intact cork, bunch of sediment, and after only half hour in the decanter it was game time. Had PN and this alongside gorgeous ribeye — 24 days ago

Spoken from first hand experience, Scherrer’s are one of the few good Zinfandel bets for extended aging into very special wine. Good young too.

Scherrer Vineyard Shale Terrace Zinfandel

Delicious fruity zin that’s holding up beautifully. A bit of oxidation although no pronounced off aroma or palette. Remarkable how this rich ripe wine has consistently delivered fruit and supple tannins after 10+ years. Tribute to Mr. Scherrer. — 2 years ago

last bottle and it was the best — ever!

opened for an old friend and after battling a broken cork and decanting, it ended up absolutely pristine, darn near flawless. A testament to Fred Scherrer
