Chances are your average winemaker would call vines aged 40 to 60 years “old.” And chances are Morgan Twain-Peterson wouldn’t touch ‘em. A staggering 80% of the vines that Twain-Peterson—the SF Chronicle’s 2014 Co-Winemaker of the Year—works with are at least 80 years old. And one sip of the intense and elegant 96-point 2023 Beeson…
When we tasted Benmar’s 2023 Into the Fog Willamette Valley Pinot Noir, we were grinning ear to ear. We could easily understand how it earned a 96-point score from Decanter magazine. Harder to believe was that this was just the second vintage for the Oregon winery. Once he got the wine bug, Greg Bybee dropped…
A frequent visitor to Burgundy, Piero Incisa della Rocchetta—grandson of the founder of Sassicaia—admired the wines of Jean-Marie Fourrier and Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. His heart’s desire was to grow Pinot Noir that could compete with these legendary domaines. In 2001, while blind-tasting with the winemakers of Sassicaia, Piero was floored by the beauty of…
It was one of the most highly-anticipated vertical tastings we’d attended in years. An iconic Rutherford estate, with a history dating back to the 1960s, would be allowing a rare glimpse into their vaunted archives, tasting us and a select few other industry leaders across twenty-plus vintages. In the sedate backroom of a booked-out Napa…
From what Wine Advocate calls “one of the Hunter Valley’s most respected estates,” this Semillon is a delicious and zippy collage of lime zest, green mango, and orange blossoms. As it sits in your cellar, those flavors will develop deeper tones, producing a dialectic between richness and energy that makes this wine one of the…
Every drop of wine Carter Cellars puts out is world-class and the Grand Daddy Cabernet Sauvignon is their flagship wine, hailing from their marquee vineyard source—which happens to be one of the greatest Cabernet sites on the globe. Coming from To Kalon Vineyard in a vintage that’s shaping up as one of Napa Valley’s best…
When Atelier Melka’s winemaker Maayan Koschitzky took the reins at Castiel Estate, he took over from one of the most legendary winemakers on Earth: Celia Welch, the force behind Scarecrow, Staglin, Buccella, and Hartwell. Impossible shoes to fill? Not for Maayan—a mutli-100-point winemaker and Screaming Eagle alum—and he’s raised Castiel’s game even further, their 2023…
Caymus is the definitive Cab-lover’s Cab. It’s a must-have steakhouse- and cellar-staple from the Wagner family, whose consistently delicious Cabernets have made many appearances on Wine Spectator’s Top 100! The 2023 vintage was a blockbuster in Napa Valley, and this incredible Cabernet comes in a one-liter bottling—perfect for a wine whose richness and suppleness practically…
When a white-hot Napa winemaker tells us he sourced his Cabernet from way up Soda Canyon Road—next to the iconic Stagecoach Vineyard, no less—we don’t hesitate to hit the road and see for ourselves. Normally, we would’ve hopped in whatever car was closest, but for a Weston Eidson wine, that wouldn’t do. So at lunchtime,…
There’s Beaujolais, with its fruit-forward, kick-back-and-enjoy reputation. Then there’s cru Beaujolais: Serious wines from the region’s patchwork of ten appellations that “can stand against many fine Burgundies,” according to Wine Enthusiast. Among them, none are more ethereal, supple, and hauntingly aromatic as those from Fleurie. Ensconced in the region’s granite-rich hills, the small cru is…
Every year, Château des Demoiselles crafts dynamic, mouthwatering rosé with a distinguished Provençal character. And nearly every year, it sells out right away, leaving a wake of member-reviews like “Loved it—light and refreshing” and “Wish I could buy more.” The 2023 is the very first officially organic vintage of their bone-dry, mineral-laden rosé. Grown on…
As the neighbor to Château d’Yquem, Château Guiraud Premier Cru epitomizes Sauternes greatness at a very modest price. Very few other First Growths from Sauternes and Barsac come close to offering this much value. Boasting 96–97 points from James Suckling, the 2023 is a bona fide superstar. A blend of Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc grown…
Chateau Guiraud One of just 11 Sauternes Premier Crus, Château Guiraud is known for delivering a staggering amount of quality for the price. At Guiraud, history and tradition are seamlessly integrated with modern approaches to viticulture and winemaking. In the 1990s, co-owner and manager Xavier Planty began applying organic and biodynamic practices in the vineyard….
“If a single wine estate in Bordeaux today were to be promoted to the rank of Premier Cru Classé,” wrote James Suckling in his Wine Spectator days, “Léoville Las Cases would be the choice of most claret connoisseurs.” With vineyards that border Château Latour and one of the most quality-minded winemaking teams in the world,…
With a history dating back to the 17th century, Palmer has long been known as a Super Second, despite being classified as a Third Growth in 1855. Its trademark aromatic delicacy and soft elegance can be traced to the estate’s higher proportion of Merlot (planted on the best gravel parcels), basically matching the amount planted…
Pavie is a wine of superlatives: Grown on the steepest slopes of any top estate in Bordeaux, it is generally recognized to be the most powerful and opulent bottling made in Saint-Émilion. Wine Advocate once wrote: “Pavie has one of the most enviable locations in all of Bordeaux.” It’s perched atop Saint-Émilion’s limestone plateau, where…
Italian white wines are mounting an incredible renaissance lately, as youthful scions of multi-generation families revive abandoned vineyards and resurrect long-lost varieties. They’re also improving on past techniques, making world-class wines at prices that reflect what they were a generation ago, not what they are now. One single bottle to prove that point: the 2023…
“For the concentration, depth, and the price, there’s nothing like it in Napa.” That was our Master Somm friend’s verdict the first time he tasted Clay Shannon’s The David Red Blend. “You can print that,” he added. “This wine blew me away.” He’d just returned from an overnight visit to the sprawling Clay Shannon estate,…
This NDA-shrouded breakthrough deal was crafted at a St. Helena winery that, to outsiders, would appear to be the postcard image of a luxury Napa estate. But step inside the creaky old building, and you’ll discover the hidden reason that a few of St. Helena’s top winemakers are parked in the lot out front. Concealed…
A sleepy bar at the Chicago Midway airport was the last place we expected to stumble across an NDA deal that smashes the conventions of Napa Cab pricing. When the pant-suited woman with the Minnesota Nice accent sitting two barstools down struck up a conversation, we had zero clue where it was going to lead:…
