Deep Sea 2008 Bien Nacido Vineyard Chardonnay (Santa Maria Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $32
A very rich, flamboyant style of Chardonnay, showing caramelized oak, vanilla, buttered toast and plenty of ripe pineapple, sweet lime and honey richness. But it’s balanced with crisp acidity. Drink now.

Deep Sea 2009 Coquina Sauvignon Blanc (Arroyo Grande Valley)
- $32
A delicious Sauvignon Blanc, really fine. It showcases how well this cool little corner of Monterey County, with its stony soils, ripens white wines. Brisk in acidity and laden with minerals, it offers rich flavors of citrus fruits, white flowers, white currants and spices.

Deep Sea 2009 Chardonnay
- $21
Made in a bone dry, acidic style, what this Chardonnay lacks in richness it makes up for in elegance. Fans of sweet, buttery Chards won’t like it, but true aficionados will appreciate the austere citrus and mineral flavors.

Deep Sea 2009 Coquina Viognier (Arroyo Grande Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $28
Ripe, delicious flavors of tropical fruit, butterscotch, honey and spice compose this flashy Viognier. It’s a bit high in alcohol, with a chili pepper singe on the finish.

Deep Sea 2008 White Hawk Vineyard Syrah (Santa Barbara County)
- $36
The black pepper and cocoa flavors that always mark this fine vineyard show up again in this dry, tannic wine. So do the blackberries and cassis that make it so sweetly fruity. The acidity is awkward, though, and tastes like it was added to balance out a high alcohol wine.

Deep Sea 2009 Pinot Noir (Santa Barbara County)
- Online Exclusive
- $36
This has delicious flavors of cola, cherry pie filling and spice, with a flashy coating of smoky oak. It’s all on the surface, but it sure is tasty.

Deep Sea 2008 Chardonnay (Santa Barbara County)
- $26
A little heavy and dense in oak and lees, which tamp down the fruit and give the wine a certain flatness. Nonetheless you’ll find grace notes of pineapples, apricots and minerals.
