My conversations with Chad are always a mix of the limbo and 21 questions, with Chad hula hooping through each answer, giving me hints while staying on the right side of the law. “From where I’m standing, I can see ….” Similar to …., but add 20 years to the age of the vines…” You get the picture.
So this year, when Chad told me he had something truly special that he was going to call the Chad Sonoma Mountain Private Reserve – I know this was a wine from the most rarefied of air. We went through our usual song and dance until I was both confident where the wine came from, and more importantly– how much I could divulge in my write-up for you.
Yes, this Bordeaux blend came from one of the few and special vineyards on Sonoma Mountain. No, I can’t tell you the name– but I can tell you that the vineyard is widely considered to be the very best old-patch, old-vine Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot vineyard in the Mayacamas Mountains.
Okay, that’s all you get– that’s all you need to know really.

91 Points, Wine Enthusiast
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.
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.
At J Vineyards, Nicole is nothing short of a magician, making 30 different skus or more each vintage between her Pinots, Chardonnays, and Sparkling wines. For the vineyard’s flagship Russian River Valley Pinot Noir, up to 100 individual small lots are combined to make this great wine. Somehow, the blend is effortless–a quintessential RRV Pinot that has those soaring aromatics, bright red fruits, clove, and nutmeg spice with perfect balance.
90 Points, James Suckling
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.”
