Even before Ciacci Piccolomini d’Aragona established itself as one of the most sought-after Brunellos in Tuscany, it had a fantastic story. The estate, dotted with olive groves and teeming with wildlife, had been in the family of the Countess Elda Ciacci Piccolomini d’Aragona for a century. Yet when the unpredictable Countess passed away in 1985,…
Like watching Michael Jordan dunk a basketball, this Chilean legend, made from 100-year-old, pre-phylloxera vines, shows you the heights wine can achieve. Described by James Suckling as “one of the world’s greatest wines,” the 2016 Clos Apalta Colchagua is one of those masterworks against which other bottles should be judged. Getting to understand what that quality…

There’s just one Napa winery that can claim to have helped catapult California from obscurity to fame with its FIRST vintage: Clos du Val. Since its debut 1972 release—the one featured in the fabled Judgment of Paris tasting—Clos du Val has been an icon of Napa Valley Cabernet, and their 2016 Hirondelle Vineyard does them…
In the fall, we were honored to receive our first-ever allocation from Napa Valley’s inimitable Colgin Cellars. It was a miniscule amount of Colgin’s 2016 IX Estate, a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant blend that earned a staggering three 100-point scores from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, Jeb Dunnuck, and James Suckling. Today I’m thrilled to announce that Ann…
2016’s Bargain White to Beat: The Under-$13 Colomé Torrontés There are two ways to get to the high desert oasis of Bodega Colomé in the northwestern corner of Argentina. If you’re on a budget, you catch the early morning, jaw-rattling SUV shuttle over the rutted countryside roads. If you’re a jetsetter, as most visitors are,…
The last time we offered a Conti Costanti Brunello, it was an instant Wine Access classic, a showstopping bottle that members adorned with a perfect 5.0 rating. As in, Brunello lovers could hardly imagine it getting any better. Today, it does. This 2016 comes with an even higher critical score. More specifically, the estate’s highest…
It’s not every day that we get our hands on a Barolo from a storied producer with some of the finest terroir in La Morra, but snagging one that also boasts two 97-point ratings is downright unbelievable. Cordero di Montezemolo’s flagship Barolo is intense, flavorful, and imposing—three hallmarks of the incredible 2016 vintage in Piedmont….
We aren’t the only ones in awe of the 2016 Cordero di Montezemolo Barolo Monfalletto. “Wow,” wrote Antonio Galloni of Vinous, calling Monfalletto “a gorgeous wine that shows just how fabulous the year is.” With its 95-point scores from Galloni and James Suckling, this blockbuster sits shoulder-to-shoulder with mainstays like Ceretto’s $165 Prapo and Massolino’s…
Opus One, Robert Mondavi, Cardinale, Lokoya, Verité, and Quintessa. The producers on winemaker Charles Thomas’s résumé are the marquee names of California Cabernet, and his role at these powerhouses has earned him unqualified praise from the world’s most influential critics: Robert Parker calls Thomas “brilliant” and a “star winemaker,” and Wine Spectator simply calls him…
A historic estate. A legendary terroir. And one of the greatest vintages Piedmont has ever seen. Sure, finding a Barolo that hits that trifecta is always possible, just like procuring NBA Finals tickets is possible—if you don’t mind ponying up big cash. But seeking out a Barolo DEAL that meets those three criteria can seem…
When the 2016 Viña Cousiño-Macul Dama de Plata Cabernet Sauvignon wound up as a ringer in our blind lineup of $30-$40 Napa Cabernets at a recent Friday tasting, we all assumed it must be the priciest wine on the table by far. Sure, this mystery Cabernet had all the plummy, cassis-drenched, dark cherry fruit character…

It didn’t take long for Cultivar’s overachieving Napa reds to develop a dedicated following on Wine Access. Now, on the heels of back-to-back sellouts, we’ve secured the final cases of a tiny-production, single-vineyard field blend that drinks like a Napa heavy-hitter at a fraction of the cost. When we chatted with Julien Fayard, the…
The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville is a gorgeous, deep and dark snapshot of the rugged hillside vineyards of the Dalla Valle estate. Showing a highly attractive nose of macerated black fruit, black forest cherry, graphite, tobacco, mocha, and violets, it’s full-bodied, with a cut, tension, and structure that will allow the wine to evolve for…
The Chance to Experience a Legend Not long ago, over lunch with Naoko and Maya Dalla Valle to seal the deal on this, we discovered to our surprise that, even with their name on some of the greatest bottles America has ever seen, they’re just as enthusiastic about the wines as we are. Over the…
Today we’re thrilled to extend access to an extremely limited allocation of Dalla Valle’s 100-point 2016 Maya.

Antonio Galloni called it “among the most precious vineyards anywhere in the world”—and from it, the fourth-generation Damilano family crafted one of the greatest Barolos of the superb 2016 vintage. The 2016 Damilano Cannubi 1752 Barolo Riserva earned a perfect 100-point…
