"Weekly Wine Picks" Episode #5: California Gems!

On this week's episode of "Weekly Wine Picks" (my new Facebook LIVE show) I featured some very special wines I discovered on a recent trip to California, aka "California Gems." 

While a little off the beaten path (ok, and a tad pricey), these are special wines from some very well-known and respected winemakers who take a "hands-off" approach to winemaking while placing immeasurable value on "terroir." The four wines featured include:

• Failla Chardonnay Chuy Vineyard, Sonoma Valley, California, 2014 ($60)

• Matthiasson Vineyards Ribolla Gialla, Napa Valley, California, 2013 ($45)

• Round Pond Estate Rosato di Nebbiolo, Rutherford, California, 2016 ($32)

• Mt. Brave Cabernet Sauvignon Mt. Veeder, Napa Valley, California, 2013 ($80)
