With two centuries of winemaking behind them, the Bichot family now makes 50+ different Grand and Premier Cru Burgundies. That means they’ve got plots of vines in the most storied and prestigious corners of Burgundy, and it’s why their “family secret”—the 2017 Albert Bichot Secret de Famille Pinot Noir—brings such stellar value. With grapes strictly…
Highly Rated, Yet Flying Low Under-the-Radar Very little Alkoomi makes it to the States, and the 2017 Alkoomi Black Label Riesling Frankland River is something special—if you buy one Riesling this year, make it this one. The Alkoomi represents one of the New World’s finest dry Riesling bottlings and comes from the family that helped…
Carroll Kemp is a rare winemaker: both insanely talented and also totally uninterested in the spotlight. Robert Parker said he has “the Midas Touch when it comes to producing wines of character,” and his wines—like the coastal inflected ones he made at Red Car—nearly always get snapped up by sommeliers at first-class restaurants like The…
To write the foreword of Vines & Vision, his new book about Santa Barbara wine, Wine Enthusiast critic Matt Kettmann turned to vintner Rick Sanford. If you ask us, the honor could have gone to no other: Rick planted some of the first vines in Santa Barbara County, which means that every producer there—from cult…
This Alma Rosa Pinot Noir is exactly what you’d expect from a team that includes the “Godfather of Central Coast Pinot Noir” and Vinous’2020 Vintner of the Year—phenomenal. Boasting the same Burgundian elegance and complex fruit that put Richard Sanford on the Santa Barbara winemaking Mt. Rushmore, this ruby-hued triumph clocks in at a price…
Often, our best discoveries abroad are wines that are well-known in their home countries, but somehow remain elusive on American soil. It always surprises us that this can still happen in a modern age, but time and again, the results prove there’s no substitute for travel. Altair’s Sideral is a prime example: A California-meets-Bordeaux Cabernet…
We NEVER sit down with Brunello icon Altesino without our checkbook at the ready—and as soon as we tasted their 2017 Brunello di Montalcino, we cut a check for as many bottles as we could get. When you taste the gorgeous 2017 Altesino, our very first Brunello from the 2017 vintage, you’ll understand why we…
The 2017 Altocedro Reserva Old Vine bottling is the authoritative, mic-drop statement of how good high-altitude, old-vine Uco Valley Malbec can be, from a cultish producer that Vinous has called “obsessive about quality.” Take this bottle home and you’ll get a master class on Argentine terroir in a glass, and enjoy a cuvée that’s previously…
After our inaugural 98-point Double Gold Anarchist Wine Co. allocation sold out in a day, we immediately set about securing the only bottles available in the country of their 2017 White—a San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition “Double Gold” Medal winner that gives white blends from around the world some serious competition. Nestled on the banks…
Anderson Conn Valley’s Napa Valley Cab Coup You heard it here first: The Anderson Conn Valley 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon may be the best Cabernet Sauvignon from Todd Anderson in his 30-year history. If you love Napa Cab as much as we do, don’t hesitate on this one. We discovered this luxurious new release deep in…
Ask Oregon winemakers their favorite insider-secret wineries, you’ll hear the Anderson Family Vineyard name come up over and over. Their terroir inspires envy even among the most privileged in the Willamette Valley: In the late 80s, Cliff and Allison Anderson found a steep hillside in the far northeastern Dundee Hills. With its slope, good drainage…
It’s hard to keep anything a secret in this town. That was the thought running through our heads while taking part in a special lunch at La Calenda, Thomas Keller’s new Mexican restaurant in Yountville. Legendary 100-point consultant Philippe Melka, and his Director of Winemaking Maayan Koschitzky, a veteran of Screaming Eagle and Dalle Valle,…
Anthill Farms makes some of California’s best and most in-demand Pinot Noirs, hands down. So in-demand that much of their tiny production is typically siphoned off by Michelin-starred restaurants like The French Laundry, Quince, The Progress, and Spruce, bolstering their all-star status. The Wall Street Journal went as far as naming Anthill “rock stars of…
Arrow&Branch’s inaugural Vine Hill Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon is an absolute blockbuster of a Cabernet that expresses one of the most in-demand sites in Napa Valley. Sourced from a single block of Cabernet at VHR, it’s ushered to the bottle by winemaker Jennifer WIlliams, who learned under Rosemary Cakebread and Vine Hill Ranch’s own Françoise Peschon. …
Most Spanish cult legends, like Vega Sicilia and La Rioja Alta, took generations to earn their exalted status among the Old World greats. Then there’s Artadi. They’re an upstart, a renegade, and by pioneering terroir-transparent reds, they’ve quickly become one of Spain’s most revered wineries—and their 94-point Viñas de Gaín is in keeping with every…
“Not sure there’s a wine in the world that can make this work,” we quipped, after we’d ordered an impossible-to-pair range of dishes at one of San Francisco’s most famous James Beard Award-winning Southern Italian restaurants. But our server took it as a challenge, telling us she had one in mind—and all but laughing in…
This is Pinot Grigio purity! It speaks volumes that the Frescobaldi family—which has produced wine in Tuscany for over 700 years and owns the legendary Masseto and Wine Spectator’s#1 Wine of the Year Ornellaia—set their sights on the historic Attems estate for their one and only venture outside of Tuscany. The 2017 Attems Pinot Grigio…
Caymus. Au Bon Climat. Hitching Post. David Bruce. Benziger Family. When wineries like that are lining up for your fruit, you know you’ve got something special. The Sinton Family planted one of the first vineyards in Paso Robles, and from that sustainably and organically farmed vineyard comes a Petite Sirah of STUNNING old-vine concentration. Black-fruited…
A Perfectionist’s Napa Sauvignon Blanc AXR Sauvignon Blanc is already one of Napa’s most prestigious Sauvignon Blancs. Not only has AXR’s 100-point winemaker Jean Hoefliger made Sauvignon Blanc for two of the world’s great producers — Château Lynch-Bages and Château Carbonnieux in Bordeaux — but his California resume is stellar as well: It boasts two…
One Wine Access member thrilled with the last vintage of Band of Vintners put it this way: It “tastes like a $100 Cab for sure.” This is the kind of Napa Cabernet you’ll want to blind-test a friend or partner on and make them guess the price. The nose alone would seem to place it…
