Enkidu 2008 Kick Ranch Sauvignon Blanc (Sonoma County)
- $25
This is a brisk, clean wine, marked by tart acidity that scours the palate and prepares it for food. The followup flavors are of spicy tropical citrus fruits and green, savory gooseberries. The grapes are from a coolish vineyard near Santa Rosa.

Enkidu 2007 Humbaba Red (Sonoma-Napa-Lake)
- Online Exclusive
- $25
A bit hard and tough in tannins, but very rich in flavor. Flatters the palate with blackberries, black cherries, currants, cola and licorice, with a sweet edge of smoky oak. Drink now.

Enkidu 2006 Fazekas Petite Sirah (Napa Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $34
Showing the hard tannins and dryness of a young Petite Sirah, this is the kind of wine you normally would cellar. But there’s a little streak of green unripeness that suggests aging will lead nowhere. So drink it now with big, lusty fare.

Enkidu 2008 Bedrock Zinfandel (Sonoma Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $28
A very fruity, extracted Zin, with jammy raspberry and cherry flavors that finish with a bite of acidity. Clean and easy to drink, it’s a nice sipper with summer barbecue.

Enkidu 2006 Odyssey Syrah (Russian River Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $34
Smells and tastes not quite ripe. Now that the wine is softening and resolving at the age of 3-1/2 years, it’s showing a streak of veggie green behind the cherries.

Lots to like in this dry, smoothly tannic Pinot. It has complex berry…
