When Duckhorn really got serious is when they purchased Kosta Browne for access to some of the best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the Russian River Valley and then bought Calera for six of the most coveted blocks of Pinot Noir in the whole Central Coast. Immediately, their portfolio became one of California’s best, but one thing was still missing – a great value Cabernet.
Enter Postmark– the final piece de resistance holding the Duckhorn Family back from interstellar domination. Last year’s rendition was made in Napa Valley. I found it an odd choice. There’s a lot of great places in California to grow Cabernet and just about every place is less expensive than the fruit they were getting. It had to have been a losing venture.
But Dan Duckhorn didn’t get to where he is on dumb luck– so after just one vintage, he made a big change that likely corrected the course. For the 2019 vintage, the Duckhorn’s decided that the pick of the litter from inarguably California’s hottest AVA, Paso Robles, beat the pants off their St. Helena & Oak Knoll options.
Who am I to argue? They settled in the home to Daou, Adelaida, and Austin Hope amongst others and got their check books out– picking the perfect vintage to do so.

Fresh and fruity aromas of cherry and strawberry meet with notes of French toast and light herbs on the nose of this bottling. Those juicy fruits come through on the palate as well, with a baked red-cherry flavor that is framed by cigar-box and nutmeg accents.

The secret to Philippe’s tightly wound, complex Pinot Noir is a combo of ancient vines, natural farming techniques, and low yields. The wines are built to age, with incredible tension and length. And the secret to me securing his other-wordly 2017 old-vine Gevry-Chambertin can be chalked up to a great relationship and over a decade supporting superior Burgundian winemaking. The wine is scary good. The nose is wild, filled with spiced dark raspberries, red flowers, and baking spices. The palate is elegant and racy, with a dynamic tension that runs right through its minute-long finish. This is a high-toned, wound-up Pinot, that is starting to hit its prime and is really turning out to be a ‘must-have’ for true Burgundy lovers.
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 2020 Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is truly sensational. It begins with striking aromas of fresh blackberries, blueberries and dark plums that are laced with fresh spring florals, mocha, sweet exotic spices, graphite and gravel nuances all taking shape. The palate is full-bodied and displays a remarkable combination of power and elegance throughout. This is beautifully structured and extremely expressive, as it possesses outstanding depth and concentration all they way through the long, finessed finish. Year after year, the Columbia Valley Cabernet is one of the most impressive wines, and there is no exception here, as it combines all the wonderful qualities of the 2020 vintage from Quilceda Creek into one expression. This is fantastic already and readers will be in for a real treat, as this simply marvelous wine will continue to deliver the goods for years to come.”
Not Eligible for Futher Discount-From famed winemaker, Robert Foley comes an absolute delight of a bottle of wine. A seamless Bordeaux blend of 80% Cabernet, 17% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot that is incredibly smoothly now but should have another decade easy of prime drinking. It is the definition of a Saturday Night bottle of wine. One to cherish for a special occasion.
