The 2019 vintage in Bordeaux is turning out to be a rare perfect storm for buyers, one that is absolutely shining at just the right time.
Of course if you asked most any winemaker in the region, they’d tell you that 2019 was always this good. Great in barrel, in bottle, and great right out of the gates. But some wine critics weren’t as sure in the opening stages.
Even James Suckling, who loves to stir a good pot stopped short of top shelf praise when he said “2019’s deliver some fantastic wines, but whether or not it’ll compete with the likes of 1982, 1990, 2009 and 2015 remains to be seen.”
Those of you who have been around as long as I have know that Jancis Robinson doesn’t mince words. And her reputation is rock solid, so she doesn’t need to make loud statements to garner clicks. That’s why when she said the following she grabbed the wine world’s attention:
“Bordeaux 2019 – best ever? No hyperbole here, believe it or not.”

The estate wine from this fine property is well structured and full of dark fruits and firm tannins. The balance is there, but the wine needs to age, to soften the texture and relax the alcohol. Drink the wine from 2024.

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.

The oft 100-point winemaker, Jayson Woodbridge had this to say when tasting his 2021 ‘Stargazing’ Sonoma Pinot: “The wine is vibrant and complex with subtle dark fruits and berries, grandmother’s cherry pie, minerals, and a slight touch of rain-soaked earth, intertwined with a balance and very pleasing easy-going luxury. Should have been priced higher but what the hell.” I have no doubt this clerical error will be addressed in the vintages moving forward. But for now, this is a cult Pinot for under $100/bottle.
Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!
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.
