Morro Bay 2009 Split Oak Estates Sur Lie Sauvignon Blanc
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $12
Showing lovely, delicate orange and citron flavors, this Sauvignon Blanc is clean and zesty in acidity. It’s so refreshingly dry, and has such a tangy minerality, that it’s a pleasure to drink as a cocktail sipper.

Morro Bay 2010 Split Oak Estates Sur Lie Chardonnay
- Best Buy
- $11
For a wine that’s been made with a soft touch but still has some weight and finesse, this is a great value. It opens with aromas of ripe peach fuzz and crisp apple, a nice intermingling of flavors. Lemon and grapefruit rind flavors shine on the finish.

Morro Bay 2009 Split Oak Estates Chardonnay
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $12
For a 10,000-case production out of the Central Valley, this is a pretty good Chardonnay, pleasant with acidity, citrus and vanilla that flirts with a buttery profile but demures before it’s too late. Grapes were grown under the Lodi Rules certified green program.

Morro Bay 2007 Split Oak Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
- Best Buy
- $12
A little raw in acidity, with some green olive notes, but the rustic nature works in favor of the wine, grounding its rich blackberry, currant and chocolate flavors with earthiness. Tasted in a flight of much more expensive wines, this Cab did very well.

Morro Bay 2008 Split Oak Estates Cabernet Sauvignon
- $12
A fine, soft-tannined Cab made from Lodi Rules grapes missing some body in the midpalate, but otherwise fair for the $12 price.

Soft and simple, this wine has canned fruit flavors of apricots and peaches, with a sweet-sour finish. At this price, it’s fine for big parties where the Chard crowd isn’t fussy.
