Chronic Cellars 2009 Mr. Nibbles Red (Paso Robles)
- $35
Mainly Petite Sirah, this robust, fruity wine shakes up the mouth with the sheer force of its fruit. It’s dry, but rich in blackberry jam and dark chocolate. Verging on sweet, it’s a nice partner to rich, spicy barbecue.

Chronic Cellars 2010 Stone Fox White (Paso Robles)
- $20
Sugary and fruity, this Viognier-based Rhône blend is almost as sweet as a dessert wine. The mango, lime and tangerine flavors fortunately are brightened with acidity.

Chronic Cellars 2009 El Perfecto Red (Paso Robles)
- $30
Rich, ripe and ultra-extracted, this Syrah-based red blend has flavors of chocolate-covered raisins, cherry pie and caramel. The alcohol is very high, and slightly burning. Almost as sweet as a dessert wine, it will appeal to fans of this style.

Chronic Cellars 2006 Petite Sirah (Paso Robles)
- $36
Shows the typical character of a young, warm-climate Petite Sirah in the thick tannic structure and fantastically ripe fruit. Swamps the palate with blackberry jam, mocha, cherry pie filling, chocolate-covered mint and anise flavors, and finishes distinctly sweet. Now through 2018.

Chronic Cellars 2009 Sofa King Bueno Red (Paso Robles)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
Marked by ripe fruit, and plenty of it, this blend of Syrah, Petite Sirah and several other grapes is an orchard in a glass. Blackberries, cherries, raspberries, mulberries—you name it, it’s there, in a softly tannic, slightly sweet wine.

Chronic Cellars 2009 Ricardo Grande Cabernet Sauvignon (Paso Robles)
- Online Exclusive
- $35
Mainly Cabernet Sauvignon, with Zinfandel, this is a rustic wine. The fruit is strong and ripe, and the firm tannins and dusty spices suggest pairing with robust grilled meats and poultry.
