Pech Merle 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon (Alexander Valley)

  1. $37
Shows the earthy, herbal tinge that characterize Alexander Valley Cabernet, but it’s not shy in fruit. You’ll find plenty of cherries, blackberries, red licorice and smoky cedar. This Cab isn’t flashy, but it’s very good, a lovely wine to pair with grilled steak.  — S.H.  (10/1/2011)

Pech Merle 2011 Ivy Rosé de Syrah (Dry Creek Valley)

  • Editors' Choice
  • Online Exclusive
  1. $17
Dry Creek Valley is a great place to grow Syrah, and this blush wine is one of the better ones out there. It’s dry, crisp in acidity and clean, with raspberry sorbet, rosehip tea and white pepper flavors. What a natural for bouillabaisse.  — S.H.  (6/1/2012)

Pech Merle 2009 Zinfandel (Dry Creek Valley)

  1. $27
Barbecue and lusty stews are what this wine wants. It’s dryish to sweet in raisin, blackberry jam, chocolate, beef jerky and spice flavors, and the tannins are big and tough.  — S.H.  (10/1/2011)

Pech Merle 2009 Sauvignon Blanc (Dry Creek Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $17
Thin, with lemon, lime and grapefruit flavors that already are starting to taste old and dried out.  — S.H.  (10/1/2011)

Pech Merle 2009 Chardonnay (Russian River Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $24
A soft, overworked wine, drowning in oak. The flavors of buttered popcorn, toast and caramel swamp the underlying citrus and tropical fruit.  — S.H.  (10/1/2011)
