This year's rains in the Anderson Valley delivered relief after a long drought ensuring that Navarro can quench your thirst with delicious, affordable wines. Summer is when we release wines produced in such small lots that we make them available to our internet friends on a first-come basis. This release includes three Gold Medal-winning crisp whites: Navarro's value-packed
Pinot Grigio, a dry
Muscat Blanc with enticing orange-peach flavors and
Edelzwicker, a Pinot Gris, Riesling and Gewürz blend inspired by the wines of Alsace. Five Gold Medal-winning red wines, three of which were produced exclusively from biodynamically grown grapes, and a blushingly pretty
2016 Rosé are also available.
Pinot Grigio,
Edelzwicker,
Rosé and
Navarrouge are offered with
case specials as little as $13.00 per bottle, a great way to celebrate the summer. Special pricing on
samplers and value-wine case specials, as well as
One-Cent ground freight and reduced air freight for all 12 bottle orders will be available until August 31.
Thanks for supporting our family farm,

Wine critics' comments on current releases
2014 Chardonnay, Première Reserve $27.00
“An appealing combo of fruit and spice flavors and a rich but lively texture to make it both tasty and appetizing. It has the creaminess and unctuousness that many people love while balancing it with fresh acidity.”
2015 Gewürztraminer, Estate Bottled $22.00
“This is the gold standard for American gewürztraminer, and it delivers classic aromas and flavors of tropical fruit, including lychee, pink grapefruit and clove, all backed by surprisingly firm acidity.”
2015 Pinot Gris, Anderson Valley $19.50
“Yet another Navarro that impresses with its core characteristics, this well-made Pinot Gris reminds me of those coming out of Oregon. A bit light on color and aromas, it is more forward on fruit flavors that are well-balanced with attractive crispness.”
2014 Pinot Noir, Méthode à l'Ancienne $32.00
“In this one, vivid black-cherry aromas, tangy but deep cherry and cranberry flavors, and a nice, firm and appropriately tannic texture add up to a concentrated and nicely proportioned wine.”
2014 Pinot Noir, Deep End Blend $55.00
“A vivid, potent and concentrated fruit component lights up this full-bodied wine from the first whiff through the finish. Black cherry, violet and cassis come together in a powerful beam of flavor.”
2016 Rose of Pinot Noir, Anderson Valley $22.00
“Pale and slightly earthy pink; light, bright, floral, with maybe a slight touch of white pepper. This is a truly lovely rosé, and was extremely enjoyable meted out in small pours over four warm nights.”
