Beau Vigne Romeo Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2012 750 ml
$74.99
94 Points Robert Parker-The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Romeo, which comes primarily from Stags Leap with a small amount of Petit Verdot from Oakville, is a beautiful wine. Lovely aromas of spring flowers, forest floor, loamy soil, blackcurrants, cedarwood and baking spices emerge from this long, opulent, fleshy, full-bodied 2012. With well-integrated wood, tannin and alcohol, this beauty should drink well for 12-15 years.
Jayson Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 750 ml
$74.99
Jayson Cabernet Sauvignon reveals its classic expression with deep, elegant black and red fruit aromas accented by notes of dried herbs. The mid-palate is focused, and a firm structure supports the concentrated fruit.
Kapcsandy Family Winery Roberta's Reserve Merlot 2013 750 ml
$425.00
100 Points Robert Parker-At 100% Merlot, the 2013 Merlot Roberta’s Reserve is off the charts and could easily eclipse a great vintage of Pétrus in a blind tasting. Fabulous notes of sweet cocoa and chocolate intermixed with black cherry and blackberry soar from the glass of this full-bodied wine that has a deep, rich, profound core of fruit and density. It is a great example of possibly the finest vintage Napa has ever produced for Bordeaux varieties. This wine has greatness all over it, with a minute-plus finish, yet is accessible enough to be drinkable now or cellared for another 30+ years.
Sinegal Estate Napa Cabernet Sauvignon 2014 750 ml
$89.99
92-95 Points Robert Parker- A huge, full-throttle wine, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate wraps around the palate with serious density. A host of game, smoke, licorice and crushed rocks form the backdrop as this richly-textured, jammy Cabernet shows off its personality. Even with all of its intensity, the 2014 has retained a gorgeous sense of freshness. Hints of lavender and sage add the closing shades of nuance. The 2014 is big and extroverted, but appears to have a bit better balance and more complete sense of poise than the 2013. The old and the new come together at Sinegal Estate. David Sinegal purchased the former Wolf Vineyard and set out to get the most out of this historic property. Tony Biagi, formerly of Plumpjack, and currently the winemaker at Hourglass was brought on to make the wines. Biagi arrived in May 2013, so his first wines were a sort of trial by fire. Things get much more serious in 2014, as quality looks to have improved in a meaningful way. With an additional year under his belt, Biagi has turned out a set of glorious wines. The cooler vintage yielded Cabernets with more freshness and lower alcohols than 2013. The resulting wines are chiseled and sculpted, yet also possess superb energy throughout. Sinegal is located in a warm sector within St. Helena. Achieving richness and ripeness is never an issue here, but making complete wines of real pedigree is much more elusive. The 2014s certainly appear to be a step in that direction.
Stanton Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2013 750ml
$79.99
91 Points Wine Spectator- A rugged outline gives this version a chewy core of dusty graphite and crushed rock earthiness, with blackberry, licorice and cedary oak notes. Drink now through 2028.
