Good, worthwhile under $30/bottle Cabernet from Napa Valley has never been harder to obtain. The category has almost completely dried up, especially as the economy and the environment have taken turns wreaking havoc over the past few years. I’ve started to look into the California Cabernet pool for the 2021 vintage, and unfortunately, I can confidently say that there will be no under $30 selections.
Luckily, the quality of the 2019 vintage in Napa was absolutely fantastic and I have something special for us from a big name that you all know. I guess we’ll call this a bit of a swan song… or a duck song, if you will.
Today’s Cab comes from the visionary Dan Duckhorn, who many consider to be a wine genius. The man is a Napa Valley icon, and his gutsy decision to expand his portfolio to other regions and other varietals took the brand to heights few would have imagined.
One of his greatest decisions was the creation of Decoy almost 30 years ago. The concept was to build a brand to help support the uber famous, Three Palms Merlot. But, as most of you know, Decoy wines have become a household name of their own accord – with a reputation for delivering unrivaled quality at a sensational price.

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 2021 Malbec Reserva, from Vistalba, Lujan de Cuyo, was 60% aged in barrels for 12 months. Purple in color. The nose presents notes of fresh plum and violets, white pepper, strawberry, hints of spice and aromas from the aging process. It’s initially indulgent in the mouth, with good fat, and volume and a velvety texture. The flavors are bold and full-bodied. This 2021 overdelivers at the price.” -Vinous
96 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate – 96 Points, Decanter
96 Points from Robert Parker himself along with extremely high praise. “The wine hits all cylinders in 2010.” This is one the great Margaux wines of the vintage. Probably the greatest Lascombes made to date…” Add in 10 years of aging with perfect provenance and you have our top Bordeaux offer of the year. A third of the price of Palmer and a mere tenth of Château Margaux – $139 per bottle & free shipping on 2. You’ll want two.
94 Points, Tasting Panel
This is a really exciting new release in the collection of single-vineyards from the Wagner Family, and arguably the most interesting one of the bunch. This is the only Pinot Noir in the Caymus collection that has the advantage of being from a natural Pinot Noir haven in the Russian River Valley. Dairyman Vineyard’s proximity to the pacific ocean, with its morning fog and afternoon coastal breezes allows for an even and elongated growing season, with super concentrated and expressive grape clusters that help make this Dijon clone Pinot Noir one that you need.
