Seven Peaks 2003 Chardonnay (Arroyo Seco)
- $16
This extremely ripe wine goes for big size at every turn. It’s oozing with sweet tropical fruit flavors that drip with oaky vanillins and buttered toast, and has a creamy texture and spicy finish. From an up-and-coming appellation in Monterey County.

Seven Peaks 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon (Central Coast)
- $15
This is quite a good Cab for the ripe currant and black cherry flavors, firm tannins and smooth mouthfeel. It has that fancy complexity you want from a good red wine, and is priced fairly for the quality.

Seven Peaks 1999 Shiraz (Paso Robles)
- $20
The tasting panel agreed that this wine’s nose was black, but we all had different ideas of what “black” meant: Some said that black grape and licorice dominated the bouquet; others said the aromas were more earthy and leathery.

Seven Peaks 2002 Merlot (Paso Robles)
- $15

Seven Peaks 2003 Pinot Noir (Monterey)
- $16
From an increasingly well-regarded region for crisp coastal Pinots, a fruity, light-bodied wine with plenty of appeal. It has good spice, coffee and raspberry flavors, and is silky in the mouth.

Seven Peaks 1997 Reserve Chardonnay (Edna Valley)
- $21
Has some positive apple, earth and toasty aromas, and a fairly plump, full mouthfeel. However, the green-apple fruit seems modest, even bland, and the toasty oak, while appealing, seems to suppress it.

Seven Peaks 2002 Shiraz (Paso Robles)
- $17
Here’s a nice, easy drinking dry red wine from a region that produces them so easily. It’s clean and friendly, with juicy fruit and spice flavors and soft acids and tannins.

Seven Peaks 2000 Chardonnay (Central Coast)
- Online Exclusive
- $12
Rough and earthy, with funky flavors barely nudging into apples, and lots of acidity. Feels jagged and angular in the mouth, and turns bitter on the finish.
