Tulip Hill 2001 Mt. Oso Vineyard Merlot (California)
- Editors' Choice
- $18
A fine and delicious Merlot from underrated Lake County, filled with juicy flavors of blackberries, cassis and cherries. This well-made wine also benefits from smooth, ripe tannins and balanced acidity. Shows the potential of its appellation.

Tulip Hill 2001 Mt. Oso Vineyard Syrah (California)
- $16
A little heavy in body, with berry-cherry flavors and nice tannins. This dry wine has an earthy, herbal edge to it, but the solid core of fruit is enjoyable.

Tulip Hill 2001 Mount Oso Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon-Syrah (California)
- $28
Smooth in texture, with a velvety softness that carries blackberry and coffee flavors. This dry wine finishes with a tannic astringency from the Cabernet that’s unlikely to age away.

Tulip Hill 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $24
There’s a big gulp of intensely ripe fruit flavor that fills the mouth with sweet blackberries and mocha. You’ll also find hints of overripeness in the slightly raisiny notes and a Porty sweetness on the finish.

- $18
