Bob Foley holds all his wines back until they’re “ready”. You know this from our stories about the Butcher and Shelter wines, which regularly take several years before Bob is ready for the world to have at them. Both he and his wife serve as the guinea pigs, drinking the wines regularly over time, until they’re deemed good to go. With today’s beauty, they’re finally ready to relinquish some of their private stash.
I had a chance to try Bob’s Estate Blanc this past week and found it to be absolutely flawless. It reminds me of a Cotes du Rhône. Then I was given the price of the wine and was blown away.
This is an amazingly crisp white, especially considering Bob held back a year or two. It’s no surprise. Even without any oak treatment, this is an aromatic treat. Pair with any of the usual suspects: spring salad, poultry or anything out of the ocean.
I think all of Foley’s wines are a bargain especially considering the extra aging (which ain’t cheap) and the pedigree– but this one just might take the cake. It’s not everyday you get to raid the cellar of a true passion project. $28/bottle at the winery and everywhere else online. 43% OFF on bottle one for the next 72 hours. Nearly half off and shipping included on all case orders.

We’re nearing the end of what was a flawlessly crafted, high energy coastal Chardonnay release from one of California’s hottest spots. It’s still every bit as bright and refreshing as you could want and it hits with clean, pristine green apple fruits, pears and citrus notes with a hint of that limestone-influenced minerality. It’s a fantastic wine for all seasons, the perfect pair with mixed seafood, summer tomatoes, corn and freshly caught fish.
95 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
“The 2018 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard marks the beginning of winemaker Joe Nielsen’s tenure at the winery. Pouring a medium yellow with a light golden hue, it’s most reserved of the flight aromatically at the moment, with yellow chamomile flowers, ripe peach, beeswax, and white flowers. Full-bodied, it retains excellent tension and focus on the palate, with apricot, orange zest, and a savory finish with a bit of spice. I suspect this will come around and open with time. Drink 2024-2030.” -Jeb Dunnuck
The Zenato family has built up quite the reputation for delivering exceptional value with their red and whites in Veneto. Their Pinot Grigio is a particularly great value, punching way above its weight class. Delicately scented and soft on the palate, it offers classic citrus and floral notes in a balanced elegant style. It’s smooth and refreshing with a long, pleasant finish. Great with food.

If you’ve never heard of Bisci, let’s start here. Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate called Giuseppe Bisci’s Verdicchio “one of the finest I’ve ever tasted,” and noted that “Verdicchio is one of the joys of Italian oenology that rarely gets the respect it deserves, and few producers do it better than Bisci.” A staple at $85/bottle for both French Laundry and Eleven Madison Park. “Verdicchio is one of the joys of Italian oenology that rarely gets the respect it deserves, and few producers do it better than Bisci.” – The Wine Advocate
