Devil Proof Vineyards Malbec 2016

Categories ,

Jesse Katz’ winemaking story has a funny beginning. When he was a teenager, he accompanied his father to the vineyard of famed French winemaker Olivier Leflaive. Olivier had two beautiful teenage daughters who showed Jesse around the vineyard.

End of story.

Jesse vowed then and there that he’d do whatever he could to return to that place: in a vineyard surrounded by grapes, just in case any women stop by. Barely a decade later, both Forbes and Wine and Spirits named him one of the “30 under 30” brightest stars on the culinary and beverage scene, and he has graced the cover of Wine Enthusiast magazine as a rising young star who is doing nothing less than “changing the way the world drinks.” Robert Parker, Jr. proudly declared that Jesse’s Malbecs are the best he’s ever had in California.

Just a few bottles but these are not to be missed!

Original price was: $199.00.Current price is: $179.00.

The world ‘cult’ gets thrown around too much in wine these days. But there is no other way to describe the world-class uber-rare Malbecs from Screaming Eagle’s former headman, winemaker Jesse Katz.  Jesse is an absolute superstar, even before Robert Parker, Jr. proudly declared, ““This may be the finest Malbec I have ever tasted from California.” If you’ve never had a chance to try his wines, you’re not alone. I bought a couple years ago and found a few in the restaurant vault. Whoever gets this collector’s item is going to be thrilled.
