Sobriquet Winery 2009 Pinot Noir (Santa Maria Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $48
A dazzlingly good Pinot that shows fresh, delicious flavors right out of the bottle. Floods the mouth with raspberries, cherries and spicy red licorice, beautifully married with sweet, buttery oak. Irresistably good, and made to drink now with a char-broiled steak.

Sobriquet Winery 2009 Chardonnay (Santa Maria Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $32
A good, brisk Chardonnay that provides nice drinking now and has extra layers of elegance and complexity. The wine shows the fresh acidity of its cool-climate origin, and very ripe pineapple and peach flavors that come from a long, clean vintage. Don’t drink it too cold, as it gets better near room temperature.

Sobriquet Winery 2008 Syrah (Santa Ynez Valley)
- $45
One of the spiciest wines of the year, this Syrah is clearly from a cool climate, to judge by its explosive white and black pepper aromas and flavors. It’s very dry and full bodied, with powerful blackberry, pepper steak and smoky wood flavors. Give it a good decant before drinking with Santa Maria-style barbecued tri-tip.

Sobriquet Winery 2008 Grenache (Paso Robles)
- Online Exclusive
- $45
This taut, dry Grenache shows better structure than most California Grenaches, with its firm texture and bite of acidity. It shows the variety’s cherry flavors. Tasty now, it’s a good substitute for any medium-bodied wine, such as Zinfandel or Merlot.
