The 2014 Teeter Totter was our hottest under-$50 Cabernet of last year, so we’ve stocked up on the newest vintage! The 2015 Teeter Totter is gorgeous, boasting a dark and dense profile, with big aromas of ripe black fruit, fantastic structure and balance. Even though winemaker Benoit Touquette has earned eight 100-point scores, he’s still…
Just over a decade ago, Will Harlan scored a few barrels of Cabernet from the younger vines at his family’s incomparable estates. He blended a wine to share with his friends, packaging some of the most precious Cabernet in Napa Valley in nondescript, unlabeled bottles. Finally, in 2008, when Will produced enough wine to eke…
Unprecedented Access to Grand Cru Napa Cab There are a handful of vineyards in Napa Valley that winemakers covet so much they are willing to lock themselves into 10-year contracts and pay premiums for grapes—these are the vineyards to which Tor Kenward has access. Today’s 2015 TOR Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley Herb Lamb Vineyard comes…
Tasting this wine with Tor, it sits comfortably in the league of Napa’s best Cabernets. It is a profound, majestically structured and sveltely textured Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon with inky black color, an array of black fruits, exotic spices, licorice, with clove, dark chocolate, and fine French oak. The palate is refined with a dense core balanced…
“The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Hillside is a tour de force!” said Jeb Dunnuck of today’s 98-point TOR release. From a vineyard encircled by Screaming Eagle, Dalla Valle, and Rudd, today’s offer is an outstanding example of why the Oakville hillsides are home to many of Napa’s greatest Cabernets, and a rare chance to own…
The Next Generation of a Napa Icon Growing up around Araujo Estate, which Robert Parker called “one of the world’s greatest estates,” Jaime Araujo absorbed all the lessons of a winery that stands for uncompromising quality and inspires cult-like demand. It just took years before she had an idea that she wanted to be in…
Screaming Eagle, Harlan, Dalla Valle, BOND: The list of truly iconic wines from Napa Valley is short and sweet. Firmly on that list is Dana Estates, the Rutherford winery that has beguiled collectors from all over the world since its founding in 2005. Nestled at the base of the Mayacamas Mountains and growing Bordeaux varieties…
We’ve been fortunate enough to taste icons like Harlan and Screaming Eagle, but we’d stack up Ad Vivum against any Napa Valley Cabernet today. The wine’s perfume is stunning. Structurally it’s reminiscent of Bordeaux, but with the intensity you’d expect from a classic Napa Cab. It comes from a perfectly manicured vineyard next to Dominus…
Metallica and ACV’s Best-Ever Cabernet Last time we visited Todd Anderson and his crew at Anderson Conn Valley, they disappeared. Five minutes passed. Then ten. We helped ourselves to a few extra sips from the barrels, until the guys reappeared. They had gone off to… score Metallica tickets. Safe to say these guys—who have turned…
Todd Anderson, the man behind today’s dual 94-point Cabernet is a Napa Valley icon: He seems about seven feet tall, but add a few inches for the black Stetson that never leaves his head. He is perpetually clouded by a billow of fine cigar smoke, and wears a long black coat—even when the St. Helena…
Barnett Vineyards has been one of my favorite estates since I moved to Napa over a decade ago. Nestled over 2,000 feet up near the peak of Spring Mountain, Barnett is an under-the-radar winery known for its elegant, dark, Cabernets that speak to the original style of Napa—a style that perfectly balances ripeness with spice…
Beringer’s massive 2016 Knights Valley Reserve Cabernet is a historic bottling from the iconic Napa estate, and marks the homecoming of an heir. Mark Beringer, the great-great-grandson of one of the co-founding brothers, took the helm of the estate as winemaker in 2015 and immediately wrote himself into the winery’s legacy with this dazzlingly supple…
Winemaker Patrick Sullivan picked up a handful of red volcanic soil peppered with black obsidian, cupped it in his fingers, held the loamy ball out to us, and said, “This is what makes Napa nervous.” A bold expression of the iron-rich soils that Sullivan held in his palm, the 2016 Boatique shows a muscularity, power,…
This 2016 Bodega Atamisque Cabernet Sauvignon proved too good to be true when we first tasted it last year. A 96-point Decanter Gold Medal winner that seemed to fuse the exquisite structure and firm tannins we love in Bordeaux with the juicy ripe fruit of a great California Cab, the cherry on top of this…
Sourced from a site on the slopes north of Lake Hennessey in eastern Napa Valley, the 2016 Melbury is deep purple in color and immediately charming. It shows ripe black currant and blueberry pie fruit, graphite, wild herbs, super-fine tannins and seamless integration of toasted oak. Jeb Dunnuck’s 100-point review called it “pure perfection in…
Showing an opaque, mysterious shade of purple, the 2016 Pluribus hails from a breathtaking site on Spring Mountain more than 1100’ feet above the Napa Valley floor. It shows ripe black currant, boysenberry, and wild plum fruit aromas buoyed by underlying California bay, olive tapenade, toast, and flinty complexity. The palate of black and blue…
Quella is a nine-acre site in the eastern hills overlooking Napa Valley. The southwest-facing slope is an ancient riverbed composed of cobble and volcanic ash, and in 2016 it produced a brooding purple Cabernet of beautiful elegance: Ripe blueberry, wild plum, and currant mingle with wintergreen, tilled earth, toast, and exotic spices. It’s tightly wound…
St. Eden, grown in the rocky red soils of eastern Oakville that tumbled down from Pritchard Hill a more than a million years ago, earned a perfect score in its first vintage, and the 2016 matched it: 100 points from Jeb Dunnuck, who said that “wine doesn’t get any better.” Vibrant and lively deep purple…
From a vineyard directly southeast of the BOND winery (Vecina means neighbor) in the western foothills of Oakville, the 2016 is “easily a 50-year wine” according to the 100-point review by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. With sultry aromas of black cherry, wild blueberry, maraschino, rose petal, loam, wild herbs, and pencil lead, and a palate…
High-end Napa Valley Cabernet is awe inspiring. There’s no other way to put it. The best bottles are refreshing in their boldness and mesmerizing in depth—they’ll stop you in your tracks, and then send you on a journey you’ll never forget. But all high-end Cabs aren’t created equal, and today we’re thrilled to share a…
