Calera’s 2011 Chardonnay Central Coast is super-impressive, especially for the money. A textured, inviting wine, the 2011 boasts gorgeous depth and tons of finesse. Deeply expressive varietal notes wrap around the creamy finish. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2016. Calera is clearly not in Napa Valley, but these current and upcoming releases are deserving of serious attention, hence their inclusion here.Tel. (831) 637-9170; www.calerawine.com

The 2010 Chardonnay Central Coast is sourced from a variety of vineyard sites across central California. There is nothing fancy here, just a glorious glass of Chardonnay bursting with varietal expression and plenty of style. Gentle notes of spiciness from the French oak (10% new) linger on the finish. This is without question one of the very finest values in California Chardonnay. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2015. These five 2010 whites from Calera are superb. The entry-level bottlings offer tremendous value, while the higher-end selections are every bit as compelling in their respective categories. These fabulous, unique wines are well worth seeking out.Tel. (831) 637-9170; www.calerawine.com
