Vine Hill 2008 Sea Change Pinot Noir (Santa Cruz Mountains)
- Online Exclusive
- $39
A very good Pinot Noir, bone dry and full-bodied, with a clean mouthfeel and a long, spicy finish. It’s tannic, giving an astringent bite to the cherry, cola, mushroom, tobacco and balsam flavors. Give it a year or two to mellow.

Vine Hill 2008 Pinot Noir (Santa Cruz Mountains)
- Online Exclusive
- $30
A bit tart, with a bite that comes from irregular tannins and zesty acidity. Yet it’s dry and elegantly silky, with good cherry, berry, cola and spice flavors. Give it a good decant.

Vine Hill 2007 Pinot Noir (Santa Cruz Mountains)
- $39
A pretty, somewhat standard coastal Pinot Noir. Shows good acidity and ripe flavors of berries, cola and pomegranates, with a sweetly oaky edge. Now–2011.

Vine Hill 2008 Clements Ridge Vineyard Chardonnay (California)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
Dry and acidic, with very little fruit flavor, although it’s clean and elegantly structured. Tastes like generically alcoholic white wine with a few drops of lemon and lime juice.

Vine Hill 2008 Chardonnay (Santa Cruz Mountains)
- Online Exclusive
- $27
Thin to the point of watery, with very modest citrus flavors but mostly herbs and dried hay. Clean enough, but there’s nothing going on.
