Cinnabar 2010 Terrace Vineyard Picpoul (Paso Robles)
- $26
High in acidity, this wine gets the mouth watering. It’s completely dry, with citrus flavors and an astringent hit of tannins. There’s no oak influence at all, making it a sophisticated partner to sushi.

Domaine la Croix Gratiot 2011 Picpoul (Picpoul de Pinet)
- Online Exclusive
Lightly amylic-pear drop, resin, mineral, stone-fruit and peach-skin aromas dominate the youthful nose of this wine. Very clean and mineral-focused. The medium body and vibrant acidity give the palate a firm texture. Given its short, crisp finish, it is best consumed between now and through 2013. Good by the glass or with light fare.
