Miro 2001 Coyote Ridge Vineyard Petite Sirah (Dry Creek Valley)
- $35
Stone cold classic Sonoma Petite Sirah, black in color, brooding, dense in body, and brilliantly fruity. The sweet, smooth tannins hold massive flavors ranging from blackcurrants and coffee to grilled meat and plenty of smoky oak. Easy to drink now, but should age well for many years. From a branch of the Trentadue winery.

Miro 2008 Old Vines Zinfandel (Alexander Valley)
- Editors' Choice
- $25
A terrific Zinfandel, beautiful to drink now for its soft richness. Flatters the palate with deep, lingering black cherry and raspberry pie filling, vanilla, Indian spice and sandalwood flavors, but is completely dry, with rich, intricate tannins. Only 190 cases were produced, but worth the search.

Miro 2007 80 Year Old Vines Zinfandel (Russian River Valley)
- $25
This is a ripe, lusty Zinfandel, with many special qualities to recommend it. It’s dry and rich in smooth tannins, and offers a flood of wild forest berry, sweet new leather, red currant, mocha and exotic Asian spice flavors. Delicious, and will hold for up to six years.

Miro 2004 Coyote Ridge Vineyard Petite Sirah (Dry Creek Valley)
- $30
Big and rich. The flavors are blackberries, plums and coffee so ripe, they touch into black currant and raisin territory. Yet the wine maintains poise and dryness. Drink now–2015, at least.

Miro 2006 Petite Sirah (Dry Creek Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $30
A fine Petite Sirah that shows Dry Creek’s ability to ripen big red wines to perfection. Dry and tannic, it has mouthfilling flavors of blackberries, currants, grilled meat, mushu plum sauce and sweet cinnamon spices. This powerful wine is good now, and should age for at least a decade.

Miro 2008 Silverwood Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Alexander Valley)
- $28
Tastes a little heavy and straightforward, although it’s nicely dry, and shows rich blackberry, cherry, anise and herb flavors that veer into dried currants. Turns even richer on the finish, with the sweetness of liqueur. Drink now.

Miro 2010 Piccetti Vineyard Petite Sirah (Dry Creek Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $28
Darkly colored and thick in tannins, it’s a big wine, explosive in flavors of cherry, blackberry and grilled meat. The alcohol is high, and there are some pruny notes, but that’s part of its charm.

Miro 2006 Acure Estate Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Alexander Valley)
- $32
Soft and sweet, this Cab shows well-oaked flavors of blackberry jam, cherry pie filling, licorice, chocolate and peppery spices. The tannins are the best part, being rich, thick and fine. Drink through 2010.
