Mario Bazán 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $50
A terrific Cabernet that feels lush and important in the mouth. Just shows that classic Napa Valley elegance of tannins, with well-ripened fruity flavors of blackberries, currants and cedar. Maybe too soft for the long haul, but an impressive beauty now and for the next few years.

Mario Bazán 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $55
Few Cabernets in the world are this ripe. It floods the mouth with sweet, soft blackberry and cherry flavors, complicated with notes of currant, oak and a spicy, exotic hint of plum sauce. You can taste the California sun in every sip. Drink it now for its fruit.

Mario Bazán 2009 Sauvignon Blanc (Napa Valley)
- $20
A little aggressive in feline spray notes, but pulls back just in time to let the gooseberry, grapefruit, lemon and lime flavors star. Crisp acidity provides fortunate balance to this sweetly fruit wine.

- Online Exclusive
- $25
Lots of unripe, green flavors compromise this wine. Although it’s nicely dry and acidic, with a good citrus flavor, it has a green bean note and a sourness that’s hard to enjoy.
