For over 100 years, Beaulieu Vineyard has been one of the benchmark premium Napa Cabernet producers. They’re meticulous in their process, have an absolutely insane state-of-the art production facility and traditional minimalist vineyard practices that have been perfected over the decades into an exact science. In Calistoga, Carnernos and beyond, Beaulieu vineyards are world-renowned for their beauty, their remarkable terroir and the phenomenal wines that consistently come out of these extraordinary places.
They built this reputation slowly and carefully- earning every accolade you can think of along the way. Rarely has any wine been added or subtracted from the BV portfolio – what you see is what you get, and it’s usually fantastic.
But every once in a while, an old dog learns a new trick- or in this case, an unexpectedly generous and outstanding vintage comes along, and you decide the fruit you have in tank needs its own bottling. That’s pretty special.
In 2018, Beaulieu Vineyard made their first ever BV Rutherford Reserve Cabernet. Feeling like they had no choice but to put into its own package their finest expression of Rutherford fruit to date, this is a spectacular bottling that has made the rash decision to make a Reserve seem like the absolute correct call.

This is so aromatic with redcurrants, flowers and crushed stones. Some bark and rose stem, too. Full-bodied, yet so refined and textured with a lovely finish of fruit and hints of berry and light chocolate. So delicious now, but will develop nicely in the bottle. Drink or hold.

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherford Reserve is a deeper, richer wine with impressive chocolatey blackcurrant fruits as well as lots of tobacco, damp earth, camphor, and new leather-like aromas and flavors. It’s beautifully textured and medium to full-bodied, with ripe tannins and a great finish. I’d be thrilled to drink bottles any time over the coming 10-15 years or more.

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.

“The 2018 Palmer is a legend in the making…This audacious Palmer was still revving its engines 48 hours after opening. There will never be another Palmer like this, sui generis. It was a massive risk. But by throwing caution to the wind, something extraordinary was born.” -100 points, Vinous
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.
The secret to Philippe’s tightly wound, complex Pinot Noir is a combo of ancient vines, natural farming techniques, and low yields. The wines are built to age, with incredible tension and length. And the secret to me securing his other-wordly 2017 old-vine Gevry-Chambertin can be chalked up to a great relationship and over a decade supporting superior Burgundian winemaking. The wine is scary good. The nose is wild, filled with spiced dark raspberries, red flowers, and baking spices. The palate is elegant and racy, with a dynamic tension that runs right through its minute-long finish. This is a high-toned, wound-up Pinot, that is starting to hit its prime and is really turning out to be a ‘must-have’ for true Burgundy lovers.
