With hundreds if not thousands more wines to drink now than ever before, the market can become saturated and the reviews can get repetitive, lazy and even mailed in. Sometimes it’s really hard to tell if a reviewer even liked a wine based on their one or two sentences, which is why we taste through everything we offer. If you haven’t tried it, you can’t possibly know.
But every once in a while, you stumble across a review where you can tell unequivocally that not only did the reviewer actually try the wine… but that they really liked it. That’s today’s wine – and after tasting it last week, I can see why.
To say Wine Enthusiast cared for this scrumptious new Piedmonte Barbera would be a bit of an understatement. The reviewer who gave this wine (which we have for just $12.50/btl today) a rave 92-point ‘Best Buy’ designate, absolutely loved this wine. In fact, he went as far as to call it, “an affirmation of all that is good in the wine world: delicious, fun and serious”. That is a man who enjoyed his bottle of Barbera.
But in a day and age where pricing on some varietals has gone through the proverbial roof, this bright, juicy, smooth, easy drinking red is priced right where you want it – the definition of an easy case buy.

This is Joe Wagner and Quilt’s inaugural Red blend called Threadcount. It is a total knockout at the price point for this style of wine. It’s a big voluptuous wine and very fruit forward. The nose is straight up dark chocolate dipped raspberries and it tastes of fresh-baked blueberry pie, spice, and a touch of toffee. It’s the kind of quality blend that you’ve come to expect from the family behind Caymus.
95 Points, James Suckling – 94 Points, Wine Spectator – 93 Points, Wine Enthusiast
The new release is here from outstanding winemaking team of Michel Rolland, Charles Thomas, Andy Erickson and David Jelenik. This one always represents one of the best quality-to-price ratios in all of Napa Cab and in the stellar 2021 vintage, this really stands out as one of the best the Valley has to offer. It’s a racy mix of Coombsville fruit from Atlas Peak that absolutely roars out of the bottle. Always one of Napa’s great bargains and a must have even as the price starts to sneak up here a little bit.
In the 2020 vintage in Gevrey-Chambertin, yields were super low and temperatures were hotter than most Burgundian winemakers are accustomed. Many picked too late when the sugars were high and the fruit really ripe, but that was not the play. Still, Ann remained as cool in those hot temps as she did so many years ago in Napa, concentrating more on acid levels than sugars and picking at just the right time. This wine is absolutely singing – it’s an age-worthy beauty that should be even better in 4-7 years.
90 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
Xavier Vignon’s brand spanking new CDR 100% is a thing of beauty. It’s already got a blessing from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate who described this wine as, “Full-bodied, concentrated and supple”. This is a gorgeous and intricate blend that features all of the Southern Rhone appellations. This year, the blend was 40% Grenache, 25% Mourvedre, 15% Syrah, 7% Cinsault, 7% Marselan, 6% Terret Noir. Nobody can do it like the mad scientist, Xavier Vignon.
