Kokomo 2009 Petite Sirah (Dry Creek Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $32
This feels bone dry and tannic, and it has a ripe core of blackberry, mulberry and raisin flavors, with some bitterness on the finish. It is a sturdy wine, and while it’s not an ager, it will pair well with rich barbecue.

Kokomo 2006 Peters Vineyard Chardonnay (Sonoma Coast)
- $28
Very dry, this elegantly structured Chard is made in a leaner, Chablisian style. It has flavors of minerals and dried herbs, with suggestions of citrus fruits, peaches, green apples and vanilla cream.

Kokomo 2006 Green Pastures Vineyards Syrah (Dry Creek Valley)
- $24
Soft in structure and very rich in flavor, this is a pleasant Syrah to enjoy with steaks or chops. It offers a blast of black pepper, followed by red and black currants, dark chocolate, licorice, violets and sweet oak influences. Best opened soon for its juiciness.

Kokomo 2006 Peters Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
- $45
Very delicious in terms of sheer flavor. Floods the mouth with ripe, rich black cherries, black raspberries, milk chocolate, licorice and spicy, oaky vanilla. Could have more structure, though. Drink now.

Kokomo 2007 Peters Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
- Online Exclusive
- $48
Very good, but could be firmer in tannic structure, with a soft, melted mouthfeel. Yet the flavors are delicious, of cherries, raspberries, currants, cola, orange tea, herbs, cinnamon spice and smoky sandalwood. The softness seems to limit ageability.

Kokomo 2008 Gopher Hill Block Peters Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
- $38
Lots to like in this silky wine. It has a very pure, light feeling in the mouth, with pleasant cherry, cranberry, cola and sandalwood flavors. But it tastes too tutti-fruity sweet throughout, and turns candied on the finish.

Kokomo 2005 Zinfandel (Sonoma County)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
A little rustic around the edges, with that briary, brambly taste of freshly picked wild berries, this dry Zin hails from a vineyard straddling Dry Creek and Alexander valleys. It’s exuberant in spicy flavors of blackberries, blueberries, cherries and cola.

Kokomo 2007 Perotti Vineyards Zinfandel (Dry Creek Valley)
- $27
Very ripe. You can taste the sunshine in the blackberry, cherry, blueberry, mulberry and cocoa flavors. They burst in the mouth, carrying waves of spices and fruity acids through a spicy, slightly hot finish. At its best now.
