First Press

California varietals rated by Wine Enthusiast. Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon.

First Press produces wines across California's diverse terroirs, focusing on classic varietals that define the region's winemaking tradition. The winery's Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc both demonstrate the precision and balance expected from these grapes in California's cool and temperate zones—the former offering the richness and complexity that oak-aged Chardonnay can achieve, the latter capturing the aromatic intensity and acidity Sauvignon Blanc is known for. A Cabernet Sauvignon rounds out the portfolio, reflecting the dark-fruit character and structure that Cabernet brings to California blends and single-varietal expressions. Wine Enthusiast has rated these wines, affirming their quality across the white and red spectrum.
