SEA SMOKE Pinot Noir Santa Rita Hills Ten 2004
93 points, $70
Riveting aromas, intense, vivid yet elegant and supple, with rich blueberry, huckleberry and wild berry flavors that unfold gracefully, gaining complexity, depth and nuance. The flavors reveal a wonderful fresh earth and mineral edge on the finish. Drink —James Laube

DOMAINE DU CLOS DES FÉES Côtes du Roussillon-Villages Vieilles Vignes 2003

Rich, robust and full-bodied red, with layers of plum, dark currant and raspberry flavors. Plenty of structure as well, with a note of elegance that should emerge more with time in the cellar. Drink now through 2012. 400 cases imported. —Kim Marcus
