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….
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…
The Car Ride That Led to a Legendary White Wine It almost felt like the opening-credit sequence of one of those cheesy yet thoroughly endearing wine-country movies. We were driving up Highway 29 through Napa Valley, the windows wide open and the scents of the summertime blowing in on the breeze. Row after row of…
When you can find a bottle from a rock-star winemaker and one of the world’s premier sites for a grape variety, stock up on as much as you can. That’s exactly what we did with the 2018 Kauzo Malbec Terroir Expressions Hostage Altamira Vineyard from Argentina’s Uco Valley. An intense yet ethereal 94-point Malbec grown…
When you can get a wine from a 100-point winemaker and one of the world’s premier sites for Malbec, you grab as much as you can. That’s exactly what we did with the 2018 Kauzo Malbec Terroir Expressions Hostage La Consulta Vineyard from Argentina’s Uco Valley. A silky, complex, 94-point Malbec grown in one of…
Keller Estate’s La Cruz Chardonnay is a perpetual Wine Access favorite. Full, lush, and powerful, it’s a star with classic California style. Each year, Kosta Browne– and Merry Edwards–trained winemaker Julien Teichmann crafts this tribute to Keller’s stunning vineyards in the heart of the prestigious Petaluma Gap. Keller Estate is the premier winery in the…
“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…
Throughout the Valley, the hushed whispers are getting louder. We’re not surprised. Britt Nichols and Ry Richards have made enough knockout wines for other people over the years, it was only a matter of time before they combined their efforts and left everyone else in the dust. With only two releases to its name, Kinfolk…
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…
Our Sauvignon Blanc Surprise of the Season We knew Britt Nichols, the driving force behind the Wine Access customer favorite Nichols, was up to something big when we all received text messages one afternoon this past spring. Meet me at the Sky & Vine rooftop bar at the Archer Hotel in downtown Napa tonight. 6pm. Got…

Malbec and fútbol: Argentina’s on top of the world at both. The 2018 La Final Malbec celebrates both of these national pastimes. Crafted by one of the most respected wineries in the country in an absolutely stunning vintage, labeled to celebrate Argentina’s 1986 World Cup win, it’s drinking absolutely beautifully right now. Finca La Anita,…
Earlier this year, Stéphane Vivier poured us a gorgeous gold-flecked Chardonnay without showing us the label. The Burgundy-born master—longtime winemaker at Hyde de Villaine (which belongs to Domaine de la Romanée-Conti’s Aubert de Villaine) and former winemaker at Napa icon Stony Hill—just sat in silence as we swirled, sniffed, and took a big sip. Finally,…
The Sta. Rita Hills AVA has often been labeled as an “up and coming,” “need-to-know,” appellation, but one sip of Lafond’s 93-point 2018 SRH Chardonnay is all you need to know that the region has fully and spectacularly arrived. This is a stellar release from one of Sta. Rita Hills’ most influential forerunners, a benchmark…
This is a true friend-of-a-friend find, the kind of tip that’s accompanied by a hushed tone, a “let’s keep this circle small” tone. But after we tried this luminous, single-vineyard Chardonnay, we knew Lagana was simply too good to keep from Wine Access members. They’re producing some truly exceptional Walla Walla Chardonnays, and this 2018…
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…
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…
Five cases is 60 bottles—a quantity you could stash in a closet. That’s precisely how much of the 2018 Larkmead Vineyards The Lark Ascending Cabernet Sauvignon SF Chronicle Winemaker of the Year Dan Petroski crafted for the Premiere Napa Valley auction. And that’s all there will ever be. We attended Premiere 2020 on a mission…
