With hundreds if not thousands more wines to drink now than ever before, the market can become saturated and the reviews can get repetitive, lazy and even mailed in. Sometimes it’s really hard to tell if a reviewer even liked a wine based on their one or two sentences, which is why we taste through everything we offer. If you haven’t tried it, you can’t possibly know.
But every once in a while, you stumble across a review where you can tell unequivocally that not only did the reviewer actually try the wine… but that they really liked it. That’s today’s wine – and after tasting it last week, I can see why.
To say Wine Enthusiast cared for this scrumptious new Piedmonte Barbera would be a bit of an understatement. The reviewer who gave this wine (which we have for just $12.50/btl today) a rave 92-point ‘Best Buy’ designate, absolutely loved this wine. In fact, he went as far as to call it, “an affirmation of all that is good in the wine world: delicious, fun and serious”. That is a man who enjoyed his bottle of Barbera.
But in a day and age where pricing on some varietals has gone through the proverbial roof, this bright, juicy, smooth, easy drinking red is priced right where you want it – the definition of an easy case buy.

90 Points, Wine Spectator
Domaine Jaume Vinsobres Altitude 420 is an old-vine Grenache-Syrah blend from vineyards planted in Les Collines at some of the highest points in the Rhône. The Jaumes have farmed these dizzying elevations at their estate in Vinsobres for 100+ years. The 2020 is one of his best yet, pristine and fresh, a bowl full of berried-up fruit yet with the tension and length that belies its humble price. Incredible bang for the buck, tailor-made for anyone’s house red, and a slam dunk for any kind of meat on the bone.
It’s no surprise the Wine Advocate has called the Ventoux a “screaming bargain.” Carved off the left bank of the Rhone River, the 2020 Delas Ventoux is a gorgeous medium-bodied wine with wonderful crushed red fruits, a silky mouthfeel, tremendous structure and that signature Rhone spice on the finish. I haven’t had this wine available for a few vintages, but I figure it’s the perfect springtime Red to bring back in the fold!
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.
With seemingly infinite access to some of the absolute very best vineyards in the most choice AVAs in the valley, the Wagner’s set out to make Quilt– a Cabernet blend from a patchwork of the top sites in Napa (Oakville, St Helena, Atlas Peak, Coombsville, Calistoga, and Howell Mountain.) The brand new 2021 edition is a beauty – deeply concentrated, rich and a truly show stopping Cabernet. It’s a dark, hedonistic blend that combines elegance with power and pairs the two together effortlessly.
