We weren’t worried, per se, but we weren’t quiiiiiite sure we could find our way back out of the tunnels. Our host for the tour of Casa Primicia’s extensive passages had disappeared around a corner, though which one was the cause of some disagreement. That left us to ponder the possibility of spending the rest…

Wine Advocate doesn’t think Rioja’s had a better year than 2016. We have no reason to disagree, and we think bottles from the vintage are some of the biggest no-brainer buys out there. The only problem is that top-scoring ‘16 Riojas are becoming scarce, expensive, or both. So when we got the chance to offer…
$15 wines can be delicious, but it’s rare to come across one that’s truly memorable—the kind that lives rent-free in our heads for a while after opening. Yet that’s exactly the haunting quality that the graceful 2016 Faustino Crianza, one of Wine Spectator’s Top 100 Values from 2019, achieves at an incredible bargain. Seductive and…
Wine Advocate doesn’t think there’s been a better year in Rioja than 2016. We agree, and see Gran Reservas from the vintage as some of the biggest no-brainer buys out there. This comes from one of the biggest blue-chip names in Rioja. Bodegas LAN is a legend in the region, known for innovation and obsessive…
Rescued From Obscurity, Valencia’s Under-$20 Diamond in the Rough Spain’s Bodegas Mustiguillo Mestizaje Tinto, which marries the richness and piercing aromatics of Grenache with scintillating acidity and brooding, cigar-smoke seriousness, is the next big thing in Spanish wine, and about to be launched into the international spotlight. It’s the kind of wine in-the-know drinkers clamor for,…
Grown in what might be the greatest Rioja vintage ever—Wine Advocate has never rated one higher—the 2016 Bodegas Olarra Clasico is awash in the deep red fruit, leather, clove, and earthy notes that come with perfectly aged Gran Reserva. Crafted by a Wine Access favorite producer, boasting a recent 94-point score and priced at $55…
In Toro, centenarian Tempranillo vines yield towering reds that deliver the power and richness of their counterparts in Bordeaux and Napa, but appear to miss whole digits in the price column. This is no mistake—it’s the magic of Toro. Outmuscling all who would test it, the “opulent, and powerful” 95-point Bodegas Ordoñez Vatan delivers a…
Rioja Blanco is one of our favorite types of white wine in the world. The category accounts for just 5% of Spain’s wine production, and the best bottles are marvelously complex, as weighty and age-worthy as white Burgundy, and very difficult to come by. That’s why our excitement was off the charts when we discovered…
Sourced from a site on the slopes north of Lake Hennessey in eastern Napa Valley, the 2016 Melbury is deep purple in color and immediately charming. It shows ripe black currant and blueberry pie fruit, graphite, wild herbs, super-fine tannins and seamless integration of toasted oak. Jeb Dunnuck’s 100-point review called it “pure perfection in…
Showing an opaque, mysterious shade of purple, the 2016 Pluribus hails from a breathtaking site on Spring Mountain more than 1100’ feet above the Napa Valley floor. It shows ripe black currant, boysenberry, and wild plum fruit aromas buoyed by underlying California bay, olive tapenade, toast, and flinty complexity. The palate of black and blue…
Quella is a nine-acre site in the eastern hills overlooking Napa Valley. The southwest-facing slope is an ancient riverbed composed of cobble and volcanic ash, and in 2016 it produced a brooding purple Cabernet of beautiful elegance: Ripe blueberry, wild plum, and currant mingle with wintergreen, tilled earth, toast, and exotic spices. It’s tightly wound…
St. Eden, grown in the rocky red soils of eastern Oakville that tumbled down from Pritchard Hill a more than a million years ago, earned a perfect score in its first vintage, and the 2016 matched it: 100 points from Jeb Dunnuck, who said that “wine doesn’t get any better.” Vibrant and lively deep purple…
From a vineyard directly southeast of the BOND winery (Vecina means neighbor) in the western foothills of Oakville, the 2016 is “easily a 50-year wine” according to the 100-point review by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. With sultry aromas of black cherry, wild blueberry, maraschino, rose petal, loam, wild herbs, and pencil lead, and a palate…
Randall Grahm has done it all. A James Beard award winner, Wine Spectator cover boy, catalyst of the California Rhône revolution, inductee of the Culinary Institute of America’s Vintner’s Hall of Fame… the list goes on and on. We shouldn’t have been shocked by the heroics that we found in Grahm’s 2016 Le Cigare Volant,…
Though this is just the first release of Brick & Mortar’s cool-climate Syrah, it earned an Editors’ Choice honor from Wine Enthusiast, who dubbed it the epitome of “cool-climate balance and elegance,” with “a brushy dusty character and long polished tannins.” We couldn’t agree more, but also put Brick & Mortar firmly in the ranks of…
Count us among those who are obsessed with Bruna Grimaldi’s mouthwatering, mineral-infused Barolo. It’s harder and harder to find great Barolo from top-flight producers without spending a fortune, which is why we’re rabid fans of Bruna Gimaldi, and why we highly recommend pouncing on this stellar cru value. At under $40, this is one of…
High-end Napa Valley Cabernet is awe inspiring. There’s no other way to put it. The best bottles are refreshing in their boldness and mesmerizing in depth—they’ll stop you in your tracks, and then send you on a journey you’ll never forget. But all high-end Cabs aren’t created equal, and today we’re thrilled to share a…
The first time you see Sorenson vineyard, on Howell Mountain, you realize how amazing it is that it was originally planted in the 1870s. When the Swiss-Italian immigrants first put vines in the earth there, they didn’t have the tools that modern vintners depend on. There were no giant backhoes to rip through the rocky…
Bordeaux grapes thrive in Sangiovese’s terroir—and the question of whether Tuscany’s native Sangiovese thrives in Cabernet country is answered in the exquisite, perfectly aged 2016 Buselli Il Beone red wine from Oakville. It’s a powerful, plush, and sumptuous red wine built on Cabernet, elevated by a touch of Sangiovese, and it’s one of the best…
