Tangley Oaks 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $21
There’s been a lot of griping lately about overly ripe, too-soft, high-alcohol Cabs that cost too much. This Cab is just the opposite. Crisp and structured, with a gritty mouthfeel (in a good sense) and only 13.8% alcohol, it’s bone-dry, with rich flavors of red and black currants. Lovely with a wide range of foods.

Tangley Oaks 2005 Merlot (Napa Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
A very nice, super-drinkable Merlot. Crisp in acids and tannins, it shows the fine structure and dryness that are missing in so many of today’s California reds. The cherry, currant and oak flavors have an earthy grounding of tobacco and sage.

Tangley Oaks 2006 Lot #3 Chardonnay (Santa Barbara County)
- $15
If you like lots of smoky vanilla and buttercream on a big, California-ripe Chardonnay that’s stuffed with pineapples and mangoes, then this is the wine for you. It’s direct and dry and crisp, at a fair price.

Tangley Oaks 2009 Lot #7 Sauvignon Blanc (Napa Valley)
- $15
A little thin, but otherwise a nice, clean, racy Sauvignon Blanc. Has some nice lemon, lime, melon and white pepper flavors that finish dry and zesty.

Tangley Oaks 2007 Chardonnay (Central Coast)
- $15
With sweet, vanilla custard and buttered popcorn flavors piled onto the golden apricot and pineapple jam fruit, this Chardonnay is made in the popular style. It’s refreshed with clean, crisp acidity.

Tangley Oaks 2009 Lot #11 Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast)
- $18
Shows everything you want in a nice coastal Pinot Noir except richness. The acidity is fine, the wine is totally dry, and the texture is silky.

Tangley Oaks 2007 Merlot (Napa Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Full-bodied and dry, with cherry, currant, leather, chocolate and cedar flavors wrapped into soft tannins. A bit sharp throughout, so drink with rich meats and cheeses for balance.
