I’m always surprised by the Banshee wines. It feels to me like a winery that’s been around forever, but in reality they’ve only been around less than 15 years with a tasting room that has only been open for a decade. Probably I think that because of how popular their wines have become – and for good reason.
Banshee’s wines offer buyers some of the best values in California out of the beloved Sonoma County. They don’t make strictly value wines – some of their single vineyard stuff can get up into the $70-80/bottle range – but for values like today’s offer – they’re really hard to top.
How many Sonoma County Pinot Noirs for under $25/bottle do you think get three separate 91-point or higher reviews from major publications?? I assure you, you can count them all on one hand.

This elegant, energized wine combines bright raspberry and red-cherry aromas with flinty, mineral accents and lip-smacking red and black cherry flavors. It shows great balance and will be fun to watch as it matures further. Best through 2023.
91 Points, Wine Spectator
“Brisk and bright, with a mix of cherry and pomegranate notes dotted with a savory hint. Reveals a light flash of red tea on the finish. Drink now through 2023.”
91 Points, Tasting Panel
“Earth and spiced cedar confirm the wine’s savory character. Exotic floral tones of prickly pear and hibiscus work well with Chinese five-spice and black raspberry. High-toned acidity keeps a freshness throughout.”

The 2021 Napa Valley East side Cuvee is an instant classic. From the first whiff to the moment it hits the lips, its clear that this is a fabulously concentrated, serious wine: black in color, and featuring aromas of cassis, cedar and chocolate-tinged purple fruit. The mouthfeel is plush and voluptuous with a firm, solid finish that speaks to its potential for considerable aging.
#3 Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines of 2021
96 Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate – 95 Points, Wine Spectator
We are one of the very few folks who have Wine Spectator’s #3 Wine of the Year. This is definitely not one to miss. The 2016 vintage showcases this prized vineyard in all its glory; notes of wild black fruit, thyme, mint, eucalyptus, and bay are lifted and enjoyed with the polished tannin and mouthwatering freshness of this wine. Regarded as one of the best vintages in the last few decades, the 2016 Martha’s Vineyard has been aged to perfection for immediate enjoyment at release and will continue to reward for the next 20+ years.
This is a sensational single-vineyard Merlot made from incredibly tiny clusters, full of some of the most elegant, intensely structured fruit from high atop Sonoma Mountain. Beautiful weight and balance with aromas of blueberries, black currants, sage and a hint of cocoa. It’s got a full, plush mouthfeel, pristine and vibrant fruit and a wonderful smooth finish. Thanks to Chad’s big bet on himself, he was able to make a knockout Sonoma Mountain beauty, without the need for any middleman, helping us to enjoy one of his best creations at an outstanding price.
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.
