97 points Wine Enthusiast: "Winemaker Matt Dees is considered one of the best winemakers anywhere, and this blend is ample reason to believe the hype. Intense, focused and dry but rich aromas of dark fruit, roasted wood, crushed rocks and wild herb enliven the nose, while the palate is weighty yet expertly tense. Flavors of dried red fruit, peppery spice and milk chocolate float into the finish. (MK)" (03/2023) 96 points James Suckling: "The black berry character dominates here but there is plenty of crushed stones as well as orange peel. It’s full-bod...

93 points Vinous: "The 2018 Pinot Noir Estate Upper Picnic Block is eminently charming in its sweet-fruited, exuberantly spiced, medium-weight build. Layers of kirsch, raspberry sauce, cinnamon, cardamom and iodine mark a wine of sexiness and sensuality. Again, this is a style reflective of a different era for Neely. Growing season differences notwithstanding, the 2018 checks in at 14.1% alcohol, nearly two full degrees higher than the 2021 tasted alongside. I prefer this edition, as it’s still finessed but has more stage presence and inner harmony. The ...

93 points Wine Spectator: "Ripe and enticing, with alluring flavors of raspberry, mulberry and blackberry fruit suavely infused with notes of black tea and singed anise, plus a mesquite hint. Offers a fleshy feel but doesn't sacrifice tension through the savory and mineral-tinged finish. (JM)" (09/2024) K&L Notes: Sourced from the Putnam Vineyard in the Annapolis sub-region of the northwest Sonoma Coast. A small family owned and operated vineyard just above the fogline, only 5 miles from the Pacific Ocean. The fruit was cold-soaked for 5 days before an...

95 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Legacy used to be a part of Stonestreet, but today is its own label. The 2016 Chardonnay is terrific and comes from higher elevation sites in Alexander Valley. It was aged 11 months in 31% new French oak. With a mix of Old World/New World style in its buttered orchard fruits, citrus blossom, charcoal, and melon aromas and flavors, it's medium to full-bodied, has good concentration, and its bright acidity keeps everything fresh, focused, and tight. This gorgeously textured 2016 needs 2-4 years of cellaring and will drink nicely ove...

This is vividly fruit-focused yet crisp in feel, with tactile minerals adding a crunchy sensation as tart red and blue fruits swirl throughout. It tapers off youthfully tense, leaving a staining of primary concentration while silty tannins frame the experience well.

The medium to full-bodied palate is lively and vibrant - pop-rocks in your mouth - with lots of texture interest combining plush and chewy, and bright and lifted fruit leading to a peppery finish. The blend is 54% Syrah, 25% Grenache, 9% Graciano, 6% Petite Sirah, and 6% Viognier. The wine was fermented with 40% whole cluste...

Ample, broad and creamy, with tons of mountain structure, the 2013 exudes class and polish. Honey, butter, orange peel and exotic floral notes blossom effortlessly in the glass. Subtle and yet powerful, the 2013 is marvelously complete, yet it also needs time to peak."

Deep garnet-purple in color, it rolls out of the glass with notes of warm cassis, Morello cherries, and plum preserves, plus hints of unsmoked cigars, spice cake, and dried roses with a waft of mossy tree bark.

The palate has a lot of purity and a crystalline, ripe feel, with a hint of delicate richness coming through. More red-fruited than the 2021, the inclusion of some Calera and Dijon clones gives it its textural component, and it has ripe tannins and a long finish. Drink 2025-2040. (AF)" (08/2024)

A wine of real depth and power, the 2014 opens beautifully with time in the glass, finishing with tremendous substance and intensity. Hints of tobacco, leather, licorice and wild herbs inform the persistent finish. The 2014 spent five years in oak. It's as fine a Nebbiolo as I have tasted in California. Superb."

A rare single vineyard Bien Nacido Vineyard bottling from the iconic Calera Wine Co. This very small bottling (typically only available to the winery's mailing list customers and at the tasting room) came from a single block of the original 1973-planted Chardonnay vines at Bien Nacido. These vines were recently pulled out and replanted meaning that this 2019 bottling is the final swan song for this storied parcel of vines. *Winery Direct*
