South Coast 2005 Wild Horse Peak Lone Boulder Ridge Syrah
- $38
Shows how ripe red wines get in the Temecula area, with juicy blackberry, cherry, cola, licorice, sweet cured tobacco and cinnamon spice flavors. The tannins are smooth and refined. Finishes a little on the sweet, candied side.

South Coast 2004 Wild Horse Peak Mountain Vineyards 4-Block Blend Cabernet Sauvignon (Temecula)
- $28
Despite the fancy name, this Cab is tannicly rustic. It shows pronounced blackberry and black currant flavors, but the tannins are fierce and drying, and the wine seems unlikely to age well, so drink now.

South Coast NV Ruby Cuvée Syrah (Temecula Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $22
South Coast’s winemaker used 100% Syrah from the 2010 vintage to make this fun, red sparkler, which was once upon a time known as Cold Duck. It takes advantage of Syrah’s big, bold berry flavors, while smelling intensely sweet, like a Jamba Juice smoothie. Very foamy on opening; let it settle and drink it supercold.

South Coast 2005 Wild Horse Peak Thunderbolt Block Sangiovese
- Online Exclusive
- $32
Distinctly sweet, like crushed blackberry and cherry fruit that’s had a dose of white sugar added. Fortunately, the acids and tannins provide good structural balance.

South Coast 2005 Rolling Hills Estate Vineyard Syrah (Temecula)
- $24
Sugary and simple, with sweet cola, licorice, blackberry and cherry jam flavors. The tannins are very finely structured, but the wine is just too sweet.

South Coast 2006 Musque Clone Sauvignon Blanc (Temecula)
- $14
A bright, spritely single-vineyard wine with pleasant citrus, peach and honeysuckle flavors that finish with a white sugar aftertaste.

South Coast 2007 Musque Clone Sauvignon Blanc (Temecula Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $14
You’ll need to like that feline, extreme gooseberry taste to appreciate this wine. It’s relieved by riper grapefruit flavors, softened with a bit of sweetness.

Super-oaky and soft, with vanilla and butterscotch swamping simple flavors of pineapples.
