The 2018 Head High is the latest in legendary Sonoma vintner Bill Price’s string of spare-no-expense Pinot Noir ventures from the region’s top vineyards. Bill’s famed résumé includes leading icons like Kosta Browne, Gary Farrell, and Three Sticks—stellar Sonoma estates with prices to match. If you find Gap’s Crown or Durell Vineyard on a label,…
The 2018 Heirloom Velvet Fog Pinot Noir is a wine of distinct focus and supreme elegance. Grown on fairy-tale slopes in Australia’s prime Adelaide Hills region, it delivers everything we look for in premium Pinot Noir from a texture like liquid satin to the earthy, fruity, je ne sais quoi that makes luxury Pinot impossible…
Last year, our whirlwind visit through the Willamette Valley ended in one of our favorite places in Oregon Pinot country: the cellar of our friend Laurent Montalieu, a man with several Wine Spectator Top 100 Pinots under his belt, and whose Soléna and Hyland Pinots light up the Wine Access scoreboard every year with dozens…
Owned by the family responsible for Bien Nacido Vineyard—considered one of the “Top Grand Cru Vineyards in California” by Wine Enthusiast—Miller family bottlings mean two things: outstanding quality, and special-occasion pricing. But this 2018 J. Wilkes upends the status quo, providing legendary pedigree and complexity for $20. The J. Wilkes label has hit the big time:…
We search high and low for Burgundy that delivers—it’s a dizzyingly complex region—and when we first tried Boisset’s 2018 Bourgogne rouge we knew we had a major winner. There’s a reason that even knowledgeable collectors from other regions can get overwhelmed by Burgundy. There are countless wines from a nearly endless number of producers—and it…
In December of 2018, we paid a pre-holiday visit to one of our favorite down-south sommeliers at Nashville’s Park Café. While we debated over the menu, he poured us generous splashes of a clear, crimson red that quickly turned our appetizers vs. entrées debate into a blind tasting head-to-head. The wine was breathtaking—a sumptuous Pinot…
This dazzling, fog-cooled Sonoma Pinot Noir was never meant to be available to the general public by the bottle, and after these bottles disappear it never will be again. Developed exclusively for by-the-glass pours at one of the best restaurants in Healdsburg, it was a passion project where price was no object and quality was everything….
“This wine puts the ACCESS in Wine Access.” It was a bold claim, but our Master Sommelier, Sur Lucero, was pretty confident when he put the 2018 Ketcham Estate Pinot on the tasting table. And boy was he right. Start with the expertise of a California icon: Michael Browne—yep, of Kosta Browne—not only made the…
It was mid-afternoon at Compline, the downtown Napa wine bar and restaurant. Most of the tables were still full with both the late-lunch crowd and the usual assortment of winemakers and industry pros who began shuffling in for early happy hour. At the table on our left was a producer who just the month before…
Our drive through the Sonoma Coast one foggy morning in September took us past some of the most famous Pinot Noir vineyards in the United States. We stopped at Durrell Vineyard first, warming our hands on our cups of coffee as we walked through the vines. We then headed north past Home Ranch until we…

When it comes to delivering Wine Access-favorite Pinot Noir knockouts, Jesse Lange is the gold standard. So when we say that the 2018 Liberty Bell is among his best yet, it’s a big deal. Drawn from an Oregon Grand Cru site—one that has inspired $65+ bottles—this rich, full-bodied Pinot matched Liberty Bell’s highest-ever score. It’s…
Numbers are only part of the story in wine. And when we poured the 2018 Cuvée X against a lineup of high-scoring stunners from Burgundy and California, this wine won out—and made those bottles’ $40+ prices and impressive scores vaporize. Granted, there are a few numbers we can’t ignore: 4: The number of Cuvée X…
Wine Access members have been snapping up LIOCO’s dazzling Northern California Chardonnays for years at a blinding pace. This racy 2018 Mendocino County Pinot Noir is a new release long-awaited both by us and a cohort of elite Bay Area sommeliers. Today is the first time we’re offering it, and scarcity will pose a real…
When the only red Burgundy on Wine Enthusiast’s 2020 Top 100 list is priced like this, you can almost hear the clock ticking before it disappears from shelves and into the glasses of savvy Burgundy lovers. An elegant, pale ruby Pinot Noir with electric flashes of fuchsia, the glass brims with energy even before the…
Monthélie-Douhairet-Porcheret’s 2018 Les Serpens is an elegant and complex treasure, unearthed from a tiny vineyard bordering some of Volnay’s best terroir. It’s the kind of painstakingly crafted, micro-production discovery that tends to disappear into the cellars of collectors and Michelin-starred restaurants, never to appear at retail… Today, we got a share. Only 75 cases of…
A lot of wines claim cult status, few have actually earned it. The Occidental Pinot Noirs of Steve Kistler are amongst the few that make the cut, no questions asked. They are trend-setting, impeccably crafted, and almost impossible to get a hold of. Case in point: the Freestone-Occidental Pinot Noir, an immaculate coastal Pinot of…
Around Portland, Patton Valley Pinot Noir seemed to show up in all of our favorite places. That’s because the smart somms know: Patton Valley delivers just as much sappy red fruit and complexity as some of the biggest names in Oregon Pinot, at a fraction of the price. Their 2018 Estate Pinot Noir Willamette Valley—which…
Along with names like Williams Selyem and Kistler, Patz & Hall practically created the elite canon of Sonoma Pinot Noir. Wine Spectator has called them “one of California’s most consistently outstanding Pinot Noir and Chardonnay producers.” Patz & Hall co-founder James Hall, who resumed ownership of the estate last year, has decades-long contracts with legendary…
We’ve been in business for going on two decades. We’ve offered THOUSANDS of wines. But in all this time, one Pinot Noir icon—from our own backyard, no less—has eluded us. That icon is Patz & Hall—and the drought ends today, because we nabbed an allocation of their 2018 Chenoweth Vineyard Pinot Noir. This bottle shows…
