This year, the Eastside Cuvee hails from a primo vineyard just off the Silverado Trail– perfectly positioned next to neighbors Caymus and Frog’s Leap and just down the road, Quintessa. Amongst the elite, Carl Roy’s team locked into some incredible fruit, with gorgeous blackberry jammy opulence, firm grippy tannins and that signature Rutherford earthiness to the finish that many try to emulate but can only be reproduced off the special soil from which this elegant Cab was created.
Amongst a sea of giants is where Carl Roy is most comfortable. It was like that all those years ago at Jean Georges in a crowded list of Napa’s Elites. While all of Carl Roy’s neighbors this year will fetch $90-$100 bottle easily for their Cabernet bottlings– this one will once again stick out like a sore thumb.

Critics were unanimous about this delicious Stag’s Leap District Cabernet that pays homage to the Vineyard’s uber-rare heritage clone (one of three in in the U.S. with heritage status). It’s a winner that got no less than 93 points in any of the four reviews it received. It’s a big, strong Cabernet that manages to remained focused and fresh. Wine Enthusiast called it out for having, “classic structure and graceful red fruit within moderated, balanced power and grace.”

The flagship from Xavier is the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvee Anonyme, and in 2019 it’s 60% Grenache, 15% Mourvèdre, 10% Syrah, and the balance a mix of permitted varieties. Partially destemmed and brought up in a mix of demi-muids and tank, it offers a beautifully pure, vibrant bouquet of black raspberries, white and black pepper, candied orange, and violets. Complex, layered, and nuanced, this beauty is medium to full-bodied, has a seamless texture, and a great finish. It has both elegance and richness, and will keep for 15+ years.
Winemaker Marjorie Gallet’s Effet Papillon Rouge is a terrific blend of Grenache, Syrah and Carignane, harvested from the iron rich soil just outside of Rivesaltes at the base of Pyrenees. This one is a vibrant wine, with aromas of wild black raspberries and sweet spices. The mid palate is rich and velvety, with a core of sweet black fruit that finishes fresh, long and silky. At the price, it’s one of the easier no-brainer case buys we offer.
