The legendary winemaker is now firmly in his 70’s (pushing 80?!?) but shows absolutely no signs of slowing down as he continues to rack up ‘Winemaker of the Year’ and ‘Lifetime Achievement’ awards all still within the past few years.
I was blown away when our winemaking friend told me he had a new project – like really blown away. When does this guy rest? What does he even have left to prove?!?
But of course when winemaking is in your blood and you still feel good, you continue to push the boundaries and try to make truly special wines. That’s what Herve Fabre is doing with his new winery, Alta Yari.
Alta Yari was born out of the desire to make the very best Crus from vineyards in his hometown. The goal is to make Alti Yari the greatest wine estate in Argentina and amazingly (though not surprising) he has them on pace.
They’ve made wines at Alta Yari for all of two years and already they’ve been treated to a litany of 91-95 point scores with some of the most beautiful Argentine Red expressions that I’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting. Fabre called the Alta Yari estate ‘one of the best he’s found in his 40 years of winemaking in Argentina’. That is not something that I or you should take lightly. That’s not usually the way Herve talks.

91 Points, James Suckling
Aromas of mulberries, violets, blackberries, blackcurrants and tobacco leaves. Fresh, fruity and bright with a medium to full body and creamy tannins. Focused and well-balanced. Drink or hold.
91 Points, Descorchados
This wine manages to display ripe fruit without fatiguing or numbing the tongue. On the other hand—and thanks to a good network of tannins and acidity that provides tension and alleviates the sweetness of the fruit—it’s nervy and agile with enough body and flavors of red fruits and herbs to accompany charcuterie.

The newly released Fiancetto Howell Mt. Cabernet is a dream – a gorgeous, elegant dark-fruited Cabernet Sauvignon that is it picks up time in the glass, unfurls its full signature of cedar laced cassis nose and mid palate of chocolate-covered cherries and savory spices. Only four palates of this (224 cases) were made off a gorgeous, sprawling high elevation spot 1500 feet above sea level. It’s full and plush and finishes fresh and oh so long. The price is crazy for Howell Mountain Cabernet but that’s what Ry Richards and Fiancetto is all about.
#24 Wine of the Year (2022), Wine Spectator
92 Points, Wine Spectator – 91 Points, James Suckling
“This supple red shows a core of cherry and plum fruit allied to olive, juniper and tobacco notes. Delivers well-integrated tannins and acidic structure, lingering nicely on the finish.”
Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!
It’s always nice to be in good standing with one of the most beloved wine brands in America! These won’t last long! This is an opulent, powerful dark-fruited Cabernet with tightly woven tannins, that is just raring and ready to go. Textbook, full-bodied, revved up and ready to go, this new Caymus Napa Valley Cabernet is the definition of a crowd pleaser.
