Known only to a few among our Napa circles, this wine is made by an extremely well-established 100-point winemaker under the pseudonymous Claire Griffin label. Those who know what the wine is and who’s behind it snap it up whenever it becomes available. It’s made entirely from Pritchard Hill Cabernet intended for the reserve blend…
The pedigree of this Cab is spectacular. The winemaker is a 100-point legend who brings Old World gloss to one of Napa’s great Cabernet houses. The estate, in one of the most exclusive zip codes in the mid-Valley, specializes in small single-vineyard releases, and if you want to get your hands on one, you can…
As bold, sultry, and impeccably polished as its sleek, artist-commissioned label, the multiple 100-point grapes that went into the 2018 Commission typically make up what Robert Parker has anointed “some of the most singular and prodigious Cabernet Sauvignons of Napa Valley.” It’s from a marquee Pritchard Hill estate that has attracted some of the most…
Lightning doesn’t usually strike twice, and we didn’t think we’d be lucky enough to see the Cosmologist Cabernet again—especially not at the same double-take price as the previous vintage. An overnight member-favorite, we’re thrilled that the 2018 shares the same voluptuous elegance, concentration, minerality, and mountain spice as its predecessor, as well as the $175…
Rich Salvestrin is a third-generation salt-of-the-earth Napa winemaker who owns a piece of St. Helena’s iconic Dr. Crane Vineyard. He’s also at the top of his game: In 2021, he and his namesake winery produced a Cabernet that nabbed the #8 spot on Wine Spectator’s Top 100. Needless to say, when Rich calls, we pick…
The 94-point 2018 David Finlayson Stellenbosch Cab is the type of wine that’s earned Stellenbosch the title of South Africa’s “Kingdom of Cabernet” and status as a must-know Cab region. It’s a powerful and nuanced wine that demands attention. This Cab’s success is the culmination of David Finlayson’s long and venerable winemaking history. Raised in…
“Joe, I know exactly what you’re gonna ask,” John Schwartz said when we ran into him at TORC in downtown Napa. Then he took a sip of his Champagne and said, “And the answer is… maybe.” He smiled and left it there, and told us to call him the next day—which we did at 9:01 AM. We’re…
Track the temperature over an average Napa Valley vintage, and the later months chart like a trail runner’s heart rate, showing the heat spikes that never fail to make winemakers sweat. However, 2018 played out like a Sunday stroll, with temps barely breaking 90 in September and the mid-80s in October. The mellow weather allowed…
The Durigutti brothers are legends in Argentina for their homegrown success. Born in Mendoza, the cradle of Argentine winegrowing, they’ve risen to acclaim in their native land for their polished, muscular reds. Their 2018 Cabernet might be their most remarkable wine yet—a 94-point coupthat hits the palate with power and verve. Even in a land…
The 2018 Edge Cabernet is “one of the very finest values readers will find in California Cabernet” according to Vinous founder Antonio Galloni. Sourced entirely from Alexander Valley—that tenderloin of Sonoma County made famous by Silver Oak—it is bold, muscular, and a must-have for any Cabernet lover. The man behind Edge is none other than…
Our journalist friend who inspired Editorial wines likes saying that he’s just another ink-stained wretch—a dinosaur biding his time in the digital age. But his Sinatra-like Rolodex and knack for making introductions tell a different story. Earlier this year, he set the table for us on another hair-raising Napa deal. He got our foot in…
We said it last year: We go to countless meetings, tastings, and trade events as CEO of Wine Access—but when we drink Andy Erickson and Annie Favia’s Carbone Cabernet, we do it purely as a fan. Raised in a stunning vintage, the critic raves are piling up around this wine: Jeb Dunnuck called it “a…
One glance at the 2018 Napa Cabs that earned 94 points from Jeb Dunnuck and it’s clear you’re creeping up on cult-wine territory: Schrader, Alpha Omega, and Vineyard 29 all make appearances. Triple-digit prices are the norm, with some pushing past $300. That makes the 2018 Grand Napa Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve one of the…
Larry David, the mastermind behind “Seinfeld” and “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” and our good friend Halpin have one thing in common. They have mastered the pandemic quarantine. “It doesn’t pay to leave your house,” is Larry’s mantra. “It doesn’t pay to leave your wine cellar,” is Halpin’s. And in early April, the Zoom invites began arriving—sometimes…
Wine Spectator called Ideology Cellars a “hidden gem in Napa Valley.” We’re proud to say that for the last few years, they have not been hidden to us. Our longtime members are well aware of their powerful, luscious Cabs—but we rarely get our hands on Ideology’s stunning estate-grown Reserve Cabernet. Ideology’s 2018 Reserve—from a year…
Wine Spectator called Ideology Cellars a “hidden gem in Napa Valley,” but our longtime members are well aware of their powerful, luscious Cabs. If you’re a more recent arrival, though, you may not have had a chance to try one—it’s been two years since we’ve been able to offer their Estate Cabernet. So take notice:…
Take a look at Vinous’s map of the western Oakville foothills, and you’ll see some of the most famous and sought-after names in Napa Valley Cabernet: Futo, Harlan, BOND, Promontory, Martha’s Vineyard…the list goes on. Among them, you’ll see a sliver of an estate with an unassuming moniker: The Vineyard House. This property belongs to…
The story of Juslyn begins with Napa legend and longtime Juslyn winemaker Craig Maclean, who in 1994 spotted the steep slope that would one day yield today’s wine. At the time, he was the head winemaker at Spring Mountain Vineyards and was becoming an expert on the mountain’s jagged ridges and valleys. But the hillside…
It’s been six years since the gnarled vines of Block 12 gave up their last tight-fisted clusters of massively concentrated mountain-grown Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2014 Private Reserve, the last wine bottled from Block 12 before its vines were uprooted forever, racked up a 4.24 rating, one of the highest Karo-Kann marks of all time, selling…
Even in a vintage that produced a bounty of exceptional wines, the 2018 Larkmead Cabernet Sauvignon was one of Wine Enthusiast’s top-rated Napa Cabernets. Honed by San Francisco Chronicle Winemaker of the Year Dan Petroski, it’s the epitome of Valley-floor richness and power. Dark and exceptionally aromatic, the wine bursts with notes of cassis, black…
