In the last 30+ years, perhaps no other winery in California has had as much success with Rhone varietals as the great Randall Grahm. He would grow his tiny vineyard project into the 28th-largest winery in the country with pioneer brands such as Big House, Cardinal Zin, and Pacific Rim.
A man with that kind of passion and drive cannot be slowed down, so eventually he’d sell off his three biggest brands in the 2000s to focus on producing singular wines expressive of place. He also decided to dry-farm his legendary Estate Cigare vineyard, a move that would be risky for some, but for Grahm, it just further separates him from his peers.
Of course, as Grahm starts to dry-farm this vineyard, the concentration and flavors have only intensified. The latest batch of wines from him are the juiciest, most seductive I’ve tasted from Bonny Doon in the fifteen or so years I’ve been sampling these wines. Unsurprisingly, it has resulted in an increased demand as well as a plethora of big scores.

Crisp aromas of melon, peach and rose petal are doused in an engaging tinge of fresh lime on the nose of this bottling. The palate is very approachable with ripe peach and melon flavors that aren’t shy.

“The 50% Moscato Bianco, 50% Brachetto is one of the most distinctive sweet wines in all of Italy. Exotic floral and spice accents soar out of the glass. Rose petal, mint, sage, dried herbs and hard candy play off bright acids and an overall feeling of crystalline energy.” -Antonio Galloni
The other Trevor Sheehan and Bartholomew Broadbent project I was recently introduced to features today’s exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon from California’s North Coast at an insanely good price. It’s more than deserving of early recognition as Cabernet Value of the Year. While the year isn’t over yet, this is already proving its worth with its outstanding quality and unbeatable value.
The Bernard Reverdy Sancerre Rose 2022 is gorgeous. A beautiful pale pink to the brim, this baby is fresh and super aromatic with a complex nose of citrus, wild strawberries and white flowers. With air, higher tones emerge, with a great mingling of ripe fruit, and stony minerality. Medium-bodied, fresh and focused on the palate, with concise limestone-drive acidity, this is an elegant, lively, and energetic Sancerre Rose that mirrors the warm vintage but also the old vines rooting deep in stony soils. This is so much better than your run-of-the mill Rose – it’s an ageworthy, food-friendly Rose
Their newly released 2023 Effet Papillon Rosé is an aromatic fireworks show made 100% from Grenache (as many of the best Southern French Rosés are). It’s so fresh and delicious with seductive aromas of fresh peach, Bing cherry, and orange with a hint of lemon zest. It’s vibrant, bright, and dry, making it a great wine to enjoy with food. However, this Rosé is so good, with its layers of complexity and structure, it’s more than worthy of enjoying on its own. Especially on a scorcher like we have today!
