Lapis Luna

Lapis Luna's Chardonnay strikes that elusive balance between California richness and restraint – it's like finding the perfect middle seat on the Chardonnay spectrum. No butter bomb here, but not austere either – just right for both Chardonnay lovers and those who claim to be 'anything but Chardonnay' drinkers. The North Coast fruit gives this wine a beautiful purity, while judicious oak treatment adds complexity without overwhelming. The vintage-inspired label with its celestial imagery might catch your eye first, but it's what's in the bottle that will keep you coming back. This is the kind of versatile white that solves the 'what to bring to dinner' dilemma – it plays nicely with a wide range of foods and won't break the bank when you inevitably need to buy a second bottle.

Lapis Luna's Cabernet Sauvignon – with that distinctive moon-and-hare label – delivers serious bang for your buck. This North Coast California Cab manages to hit all the right notes without the Napa Valley price tag, which is something to howl about. The name 'Lapis Luna' refers to an old alchemical term for the philosopher's stone – and there is something almost magical about finding a Cab this good at this price. It's got all the hallmarks of quality California Cabernet: the dark fruit, the subtle oak influence, and that satisfying structure. While some Cabs can be overly aggressive in their youth, this one's already in a friendly mood. Perfect for that weeknight when you want something reliable but don't want to crack open the special occasion bottles.

Lapis Luna's Sauvignon Blanc captures California sunshine in a glass – bright, fresh, and utterly delightful without veering into the aggressively grassy territory that some Sauvs can't seem to avoid. This North Coast offering strikes a beautiful balance between citrus zip and subtle tropical notes. The charming vintage-inspired label with its celestial imagery is fitting – this wine has enough vibrancy to transport you to a moonlit evening in wine country. What makes this bottle stand out is its versatility; it's got enough complexity to satisfy serious wine lovers but remains utterly approachable for casual sipping. It's the kind of white that disappears from your glass faster than you'd expect – that second bottle suddenly seems like a very wise investment.

Lapis Luna's Red Blend is the vinous equivalent of that friend who gets along with everyone at the party – approachable, engaging, and full of pleasant surprises. This North Coast California blend brings together the jammy richness of Zinfandel, the inky depth of Petite Sirah, and the structure of Cabernet Sauvignon in a harmonious marriage. The vintage-inspired label featuring the moon and hare hints at the wine's playful nature, but don't mistake approachability for simplicity. There's enough complexity here to keep things interesting through the whole bottle. It's the perfect Tuesday night red when you want something reliable but not boring – kind of like choosing a really good sitcom instead of diving into a complicated documentary series. Pair with pizza, burgers, or just a comfy couch after a long day.

Lapis Luna's Zinfandel is California in a bottle – bold, expressive, and not afraid to show off a bit. This North Coast Zin delivers all the brambly fruit and peppery spice that make this grape a perennial favorite, without tipping into overripe territory. The vintage-inspired label with its moon and hare imagery hints at something a bit magical, and there is something enchanting about finding a Zinfandel with this much character at this price point. It's got that classic Zin generosity – think of it as the friend who always brings the best snacks to the party and makes sure everyone's glass stays full. Perfect for barbecues, pizza nights, or any occasion that calls for a wine that's serious about being fun.
