Manzoni 2005 Lucia Highland Vineyard Chardonnay (Santa Lucia Highlands)
- $28
O.K. Chard, but pretty thin, especially for this prestige appellation. The plaster of oak is too strong for the fruit. The flavors are of lemon candy and oak.

Manzoni 2006 Family Estate Vineyard Syrah (Santa Lucia Highlands)
- Online Exclusive
- $35
Too soft and sweet, with pie-filling flavors of blackberries, cherries, raspberries, anise and cocoa. Lacks the acidity and tannic structure to balance the sweetness, but lots of people will savor it anyway.

- $26
Tough in acidity, with less than ripe tobacco and herb flavors, this bone-dry Chardonnay isn’t offering much richness.

Heavy and dull, with medicinal flavors like cherry cough medicine.

- Online Exclusive
- $48
An awkward wine. Smells a little vegetal, and tastes weirdly sweet in raspberry and cherry syrup, with a cloying finish. Ready now.
