The Guenoc Valley in Lake County has only one winery in its AVA. It’s named after its original proprietor, Lilian Langtry, who founded the winery in 1888. This area is an oldie but goody as it offers up sublime versions of Bordeaux varietals and usual tough love Petite Sirah with gobs of dark, lush fruits, incense spice aromatics, and supple, gritty tannins on the finish. Pop open a bottle, decant, and enjoy with a roaring fire and a decedent meal. — Tonya Pitts
