Gran Coronas represents a monumental turning point in innovation for Familia Torres. It’s when Miguel A. Torres went against the centuries long regional norms and planted Cabernet Sauvignon in Penedès in the 1960s at a time when most plantings were indigenous white varieties. Miguel’s outrageous quality Cabernet Sauvignon has led to Gran Coronas becoming a benchmark wine for the region. By blending Cabernet Sauvignon and Tempranillo, followed by prolonged oak aging, he puts together one of the family’s finest efforts each vintage.
If you’re looking for the best, affordable Thanksgiving wine, let me introduce you to this little treat courtesy of the Torres Family form the 2017 vintage. A juicy and yet silky Cabernet dominate blend that also features Tempranillo is just about as inviting as a wine gets. This is an unrivaled Spanish value. Black jammy fruits perfectly laced together with firm, chewy tannins, this wine has so much balance and poise and offers a slightly sweet finish capped off with well-integrated oak and a dash of spice courtesy of the Tempranillo.

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.
With seemingly infinite access to some of the absolute very best vineyards in the most choice AVAs in the valley, the Wagner’s set out to make Quilt– a Cabernet blend from a patchwork of the top sites in Napa (Oakville, St Helena, Atlas Peak, Coombsville, Calistoga, and Howell Mountain.) The brand new 2021 edition is a beauty – deeply concentrated, rich and a truly show stopping Cabernet. It’s a dark, hedonistic blend that combines elegance with power and pairs the two together effortlessly.
In the 2020 vintage in Gevrey-Chambertin, yields were super low and temperatures were hotter than most Burgundian winemakers are accustomed. Many picked too late when the sugars were high and the fruit really ripe, but that was not the play. Still, Ann remained as cool in those hot temps as she did so many years ago in Napa, concentrating more on acid levels than sugars and picking at just the right time. This wine is absolutely singing – it’s an age-worthy beauty that should be even better in 4-7 years.
It’s no surprise the Wine Advocate has called the Ventoux a “screaming bargain.” Carved off the left bank of the Rhone River, the 2020 Delas Ventoux is a gorgeous medium-bodied wine with wonderful crushed red fruits, a silky mouthfeel, tremendous structure and that signature Rhone spice on the finish. I haven’t had this wine available for a few vintages, but I figure it’s the perfect springtime Red to bring back in the fold!
