Arrow & Branch Napa Red 2012 750ml
$125.00
93 Points Robert Parker-The promising 2012 Proprietary Red (66% Cabernet Franc and 34% Merlot) is a St.-Emilion look-alike. A deep ruby/purple hue is accompanied by notes of lead pencil shavings, spring flowers, blueberries and black raspberries. Medium-bodied, dense, rich, exuberant, fragrant and fruity, this 2012 should drink well for a decade or more.
Bacio Divino Napa Red 2013 750ml
$101.99
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and Petit Sirah. Our primary Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards are in the Rutherford appellation. The Sangiovese comes from a high elevation vineyard in Atlas Peak , and our Petit Sirah vineyard is located just north of Calistoga. All fruit and wines are Napa appellation.
Unlike wines that typify a certain terroir, our wines are blends in the classic sense. We choose the most expressive barrels of each varietal and utilize the ‘art’ of blending to produce a final wine that is superior to each of its components.
The wine is deeply Cabernet colored, complex and layered in blackberry and current fruit. The intriguing Sangiovese varietal adds linear tannins and an indigenous fruitiness. The Petit Sirah adds a firm structural backbone and a fresh, bright acidity to the wine. Overall, Bacio Divino is balanced, precocious in its youth, generous in flavor and aroma, yet retains an elegance not always found in California wines.
Cerridwen Moonlight Blend 2012 750ml
$35.99
Beguiling aromas of cranberry, cherry and ocean spray. Deep, lusty flavors of black cherry, raspberry, plum and cinnamon with a kiss of caramel. 25 cases produced
Dilecta The Tiller Red 2012 750 ml
$45.99
Loaded with kirsch, blackberry liqueur, toast, dried underbrush and licorice, it hits the palate with a medium to full-bodied feel, layers of fruit and solid acidity.
Dominus Napanook 2014 750 ml
$74.99
93 Points Antonio Galloni- The 2014 Napanook is, once again, a very serious wine. Dark, powerful and brooding, the 2014 possesses remarkable intensity packed into its mid-weight frame. Smoke, scorched earth, tobacco, graphite, savory herbs and menthol add to an impression of gravitas. The 2014 doesn't quite have the depth or power of the 2013, but it leans in that direction. I would give it a few years in bottle to settle down. This is an impressive showing.
Ed's Red 2012 750ml
$16.99
This is a deep colored, full-flavored, full-bodied and fully tannic wine that will stand up to your richest roast or smokiest barbecue. The aromas resemble smoke, black pepper and tart blueberries, with flavors of black olive and pomegranate.
Figgins Estate Walla Walla Valley Red 2008 750 ml
$100.00
The Figgins Family's estate red
Figgins Estate Walla Walla Valley Red 2012 750 ml
$104.99
96 Points Robert Parker-The Figgins 2012 Estate Red Wine is flat-out knockout stuff. Layered, gorgeously concentrated, full-bodied, and balanced, this Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated blend gives up sensational notes of cassis, black raspberry toasted bread and sweet spice on the nose. Ultra-pure, elegant and silky, it has the texture to drink nicely today, yet will age effortlessly for two decades or more. Coming from the higher elevation, eastern edge of Walla Walla (1500-1750 feet above sea level), it spent 22 months in 70% new French oak and 30% in once used barrels. This is one of the top Cabernets coming out of Washington and readers should not miss it.
GB Crane El Coco Red 2016 750ml
$74.99
Decandent and rich, the nose opens with ripe boysenberry, blackberry and dark chocolate with a touch of aromatic nuance - forest floor and a satiating minerality. The entry is expansive and weighty with dark berries, ripe stone fruits, a hint of bing cherry with a long chain of white pepper. The complex finish is lengthy with soft, supple tannins stemming from teh high percentage of new French oak.
94 pts Antonio Galloni
Gemstone Yountville Red 2012 750 ml
$94.99
Robert Parker-Composed of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, the 2012 Proprietary Red Estate may be among the finest wines Gemstone has yet produced. A prodigious effort loaded with promise, it boasts flowery, creme de cassis, graphite, licorice and subtle smoke notes presented in a boisterous, exuberant, densely fruity style. With lots of purity, depth and richness as well as a bigger style than normal, it should provide enjoyment over the next 12-15 years.
Hudson Old Master 2012 750 ml
$125.99
93+ Points Antoni Galloni-What a pleasure it is to taste the 2012 Old Master, Lee Hudson's Cabernet Franc/Merlot blend. Dark, intense and muscular, the 2012 boasts serious depth and fabulous overall balance. The flavors are brooding and inward, yet there is so much going on in the glass. Black cherry jam, spices, grilled herbs and leather open up over time, but it is the wine's pure personality that really shines. What a gorgeous wine this is.
