MESSAGE FROM THE WINEMAKER,
JENNIFER WALL

Dear Friends,
We are pleased to be sending out our fourth edition of the J. Lynne Russian River Valley Wines newsletter!
Here at J. Lynne Wines, we focus on making quality, small production, hand crafted Russian River Valley wines. We’ve been doing this since the 2002 vintage.
Harvest 2007 has come and gone and we are thrilled with the quality of fruit from this vintage. We picked and pressed just over 9 tons of Cameron Ranch Chardonnay and we picked exactly 15 tons of Pinot Noir. The wines are full of varietal flavors and have fantastic color; they are now enjoying time in French oak barrels while going through secondary fermentation.
Following the bottling and release of the 2006 vintage of the J. Lynne Russian River Valley Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, we immediately started to submit these wines into wine competitions. At the first wine competition entered, the Sonoma County Harvest Fair wine competition, we garnered medals for both wines. Most notably a GOLD MEDAL on the J. Lynne Russian River Valley Chardonnay.
Additionally, we are pleased to announce that The Wine Enthusiast rated our 2005 J. Lynne Russian River Chardonnay 90 POINTS in the November 1, 2007 edition. The 2005 J. Lynne Chardonnay is available at local wine shops.

We wish you and your family a happy, healthy and wonderful holiday season and hope you consider enjoying a bottle of J. Lynne wine as a part of your special celebrations.
As always, your interest, support and consumption are appreciated!

Cheers,
