So, I’ll just get into it, if you are roasting lamb this fall, you’ll need a few bottles of David Reynaud’s terrific new Crozes-Hermitage Beaumont 2017. In the sixteen years that he’s been at the helm of his family’s domaine, David Reynaud has taken them from relative obscurity to now an allocated commodity that sommeliers all over NYC are fighting over. Luckily, Restaurant Nicholas has been around long enough to keep us in the running with all the cool kids from the city and I am happy to share with all of you.
The 2017 Beaumont is a heady yet vibrant Crozes-Hermitage featuring deep, expressive aromas of violet, cracked black pepper and blackberry. Purple in color all the way to the rim, the flavors of pomegranate, lavender, black pepper, and dark chocolate extend long into the finish. Medium-bodied with a fine tannins, this is an elegant Northern Rhône Syrah which screams for lamb. Don’t miss it.

This is an elegant Northern Rhône Syrah which screams for lamb, poultry or pork.
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.

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.
The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino from Aleramici hits all the right notes. It has a nice medium weight to it with easy drinking cherry, creme de cassis and purple fruits. It’s multi-dimensional with waves of some dark plum and blackberry with more sage and spice components as well that compliment it perfectly.

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.
