The savviest wine lovers we know are WAY into Late Bottled Vintage Port. It’s easy to see why. LBVs deliver the outstanding quality of Port’s top vintages—but unlike vintage Port, which often takes decades to mature, LBV is released by the winery when it’s ready to go, perfectly balanced between the character and fruit of…
We’ll never forget our first glimpse of Quinta do Vesuvio. Approaching three hours out of the city of Oporto, a twisting train ride took us through stone-terraced vineyards lined with old vines, deep into Portugal’s Douro Valley—and straight to one of the most exciting red wine finds of our trip to Europe. The 2015 Quinta…
Back on Wine Access is Spectator’s “Professor Chardonnay” If there was a Mount Rushmore of California Chardonnay producers, winemaker David Ramey would fall squarely in the same position as George Washington. It’s been two years since we’ve offered a Ramey Chardonnay, but the wait is finally over, and our timing couldn’t be better. On the…
Jadot, Parker, and a New York Financier The story of Remoissenet is simple: Louis Jadot, Robert Parker’s longtime critic, and a New York financier put their heads together on how to craft the best “new” Burgundy from France’s most hallowed terroir. Twelve years after its founding, their brainchild is one of the most beloved domaines…
Steve Gill’s tiny production, ultra-concentrated 2015 Sauvignon Blancs are among the finest of the last 20 years. The 2015 Richmond Plains Sauvignon Blanc is an absolute knockout. Brilliant green-straw to the rim, with mouthwatering aromas of pink grapefruit, gooseberry, Anjou pear, and passion fruit. Rich, plump, and weighty—infused with a slight hint of sweetness, the…
Mt. Etna’s Founding Father If Mount Etna was Mount Rushmore, Salvo Foti would have his face where George Washington’s is. A native of the city of Catania, Salvo studied enology and began his winemaking career in 1981. A few years in, Salvo partnered with the Benanti family to extensively research the patchwork of volcanic soils…
Some of the best old-school yarns ever told by Wine Access were about Robert Craig wines, so we knew we had to get in touch with the top brass for this offer. So we got President and CEO Elton Slone, part owner for two decades, on the blower. “We used to do seven-to-ten year library…
The Winery That Made Cabernet Franc Into a Cult Obsession When it comes to collectible Napa Valley Cabernet Franc, one estate practically wrote the book: Keenan Winery. Old vines, high elevation, and a stellar vintage delivered a new watermark for quality in 2015, with Keenan’s Spring Mountain Cabernet Franc nabbing its highest score ever from…
The Stars of Spring Mountain Cab Before we say anything about today’s 2015 Keenan Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley, we have to tell you thatthere are only 35 cases up for grabs. The lauded 2015 vintage had record-low yields across the valley, meaning even this iconic Spring Mountain winery couldn’t produce enough bottles to satisfy demand….
Rare Mountain Napa Chardonnay Michael Keenan, the king of Napa’s Spring Mountain, has “the Midas touch,” according to Robert Parker. In 2015, the gold is in the glass — another absolutely riveting Chardonnay from Keenan’s 2,000-foot “magical vineyard” perch overlooking nearly all of the valley below, which Parker called “a beautiful Chardonnay.” The exceptional vintage…
Ancient-Vine Barbera D’Asti and a Throwback to 2001 It’s said that the olfactory is the keenest of senses. Maybe that’s why we’ll never forget the gnocchi, the olio, the Reggiano — or the juiciest, blackest, old-vine Barbera we’ve ever tasted. We left La Morra at 10 a.m., took the turnoff towards Asti about a half-hour…
We look for every excuse to escape our offices and hit the wine trail, but if winemakers need an escape from their chilly cellars, we’re always happy to open our doors… It was one of those rare meetings that led to this missive: An offer on the outstanding, beautifully balanced Room Chardonnay, a dazzling creative…
Magnums From a Prolific 100-Point Vintner If you don’t know the name Thomas Rivers Brown (or “TRB” as he’s known in wine country), know this: His fingerprints cover no less than 25 wines bearing perfect 100-point scores. This track record usually bumps the price of his handiwork to triple digits. Not today. The 2015 Round…
Estate Dry Creek Zinfandel is Buy of the Vintage From California’s 2015s, almost nothing beats a Sonoma old-vine Zinfandel like this gorgeous release from Saini, a fifth-generation winemaking family cultivating 87-year-old vines. Showing nearly unprecedented quality, the vintage for the region’s Zinfandels won a 92-95 rating from Wine Spectator, the most promising score of the…
Single-Site Brilliance in Outstanding Vintage The 2015 Saintsbury Chardonnay Sangiacomo Green Acres Vineyard Carneros is the single-source bottling that highlights one of the Carneros region’s most fruitful partnerships: between Saintsbury—a Burgundian-style pioneer of Carneros—and the legendary Sangiacomo family, who have farmed Sonoma County for nearly a century. Green Acres, planted in 1969, is a highly…
San Lorenzo sits just a seven minute drive north of the legendary Soldera estate—the source of highly-allocated, $600 bottles of Brunello—and just another 400 yards from Gaja’s famed Pieve Santa Restituta property. It’s a top class neighborhood that yields wines like this 2015, which boasts a 94+ point score from Vinous’ notoriously tough Ian D’Agata,…
Sanford Winery Exclusive Pinot Noir Sanford Winery’s focused production of Burgundy varieties has earned the wines inroads at America’s premier watering holes, including Bouchon, Spruce, The French Laundry, and Michael Mina, as well as a massive fan in critic Jeb Dunnuck, who decorated all of their 2015 single-vineyard Pinot Noirs with scores between 92-96 points….
Many Times Tasted Blind, Mistook for White Burgundy The 2015 Sanford Winery Chardonnay Sta. Rita Hills from Santa Barbara County is history and excellence in a bottle. It is sourced from Sanford & Benedict Vineyard, Santa Barbara’s first Chardonnay planting, named by Wine Enthusiast to its list of “California’s Grand Cru Chardonnays.” Rajat Parr, the…
50:1 Odds at 64th and Broadway It was the summer of 1979. Like so many American backpackers, we were bumming around Europe on $10 a day. It wouldn’t be long before the northern part of the continent became too rich for our blood. The $20 second-class train ride from Geneva to Athens took 30 hours….
Whether it’s in a month or in a decade, we can guarantee one thing: When you pop the cork and indulge in the 98-point 2015 Livio Sassetti Pertimali, you’ll marvel at the fact that you procured this bottle—one of the top Brunellos from one of the greatest vintages ever—for just $65. Perfection-pushing Brunello for $65—that’s…
