The Belle Glos wines, an ode to Joseph Wagner’s grandmother, Lorna Belle Glos – a larger than life personality, showcase the bigger, bolder style of Pinot Noir. Like today’s selection from Sta. Rita Hills, they come from California’s top Pinot wine-growing regions, often along the coastline.
Up until now, we’ve got to work with all three of the single-vineyard Pinot Noirs in the Belle Glos portfolio, the Dairyman Vineyard, Las Alturas Vineyard and the Clark and Telephone. But today, just for a few folks – we’ve unlocked a bonus 4th Belle Glos wine- the Balade (Wanderer) which allows the Wagners to quite literally, wander, and find the best spots in Sta. Rita Hills to make their cuvee. With their relationships and reputations, this is a winning formula to say the least.
In 2020, the Caymus family turned out a beauty, one that you’re going to love. It’s a big, concentrated effort with a lovely mix of black cherry, blueberries, raspberries and baking spice. It’s ripe and full-bodied on the mouthfeel with wild berries, sage and a hint of minerality. The best part is the bones on this– great balance and structure and a seamless blend, that showcases the best of some of Sta. Rita Hills big ticket vineyards.

This lush, luxurious Pinot Noir begins with hearty aromas of baked black cherry, clove, nutmeg and smoke on the nose. There is undeniable power on the palate yet also some finesse, presenting flavors of black cherry laced with mace as layered tannins and acidity carry through the finish.

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 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.

Damien has crafted a delicious Médoc, full of character with dense black currant and cherry fruit, cedar, tobacco and wonderful complexity. It’s silky complexion is what pushes it over the edge (and, of course, the price!) It doesn’t hurt that it comes from a 95-point Left Bank vintage that the Wine Advocate declared, “outstanding.”

Always the one with the most personality of the bunch, this is what Wine Enthusiast had to say about the 2021 release: “This extremely ripe and bold style of Pinot Noir will please those seeking such lushness. Dark in the glass, it begins with black cherry, toasty caramel and cola milk shake aromas.” The cool, coastal days and abundance of sunshine lines up perfectly for a wine that has a good natural acidic backbone, with bold fruit-forward flavors. In an easy 2021 vintage, Joe Wagner had a field day with this single-vineyard beauty.
