Baccharis 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon (Alexander Valley)
- Cellar Selection
- $28
This is a classic old-style Alexander Valley Cabernet. By that I mean it’s dry, soft and slightly herbal, with a dill and tobacco edge to the cherry fruit. It’s an elegant, complex, tannic wine that should age well.

Baccharis 2002 Zinfandel (Sonoma County)
- Editors' Choice
- $16
Classic Sonoma Zin, ripe, dry and luscious in blackberry, cherry, cocoa, coffee and peppery spice flavors, with rich, complex tannins and a finish of sweet fruit and oak. Has the depth and intensity of a true old vine wine.

Baccharis 2002 Petite Sirah (Dry Creek Valley)
- $23
This is an old-fashioned Petite Sirah, the kind that will live for decades. It's dark and very dry, with bigtime tannins, full-bodied alcohol and lots of dark stone fruit, leather and cured tobacco flavors. Drink now through 2020.

Baccharis 2002 Floodgate Vineyard Pinot Noir (Anderson Valley)
- $28
This wine is like a good Zinfandel with the texture and body of a Pinot. By that, I mean it has a feral quality, with a peppery, leathery edge to the wild berry fruit, but it also has Pinot’s silky texture.

Baccharis 2004 Sauvignon Blanc (Russian River Valley)
- $15
Combines basic Sauvignon “savage†character of wild green grasses, hay and melon with richer fig and tropical fruit flavors, in a creamy texture. The result is a fine, somewhat complex wine, with high acidity.
