The vineyards that run along Bella Oaks Lane (the road that cuts through the heart of Rutherford) towards the old Bella Union mine, have been sought after for well over a hundred years. Since their founding in the 1880s, these vineyards have been the heart of some of the most phenomenal Napa Cabernets ever made.
They were the secret ingredient in Heitz’s Bella Oaks Cabernet. The vineyards from the old Steckter family property – now Staglin – were the secret sauce in the Beaulieu’s Georges de Latour Private Reserve – not to mention the phenomenal wines of Staglin.
The 2017 Far Niente Bella Union Napa Valley Cab combines luscious estate Cabernet with a sprinkling of Bordeaux varieties from select vineyards nearby (Malbec, Cabernet Franc and Petite Verdot). The result is a luscious wine featuring aromas of dark cherry, anise, and spice – with big, lip-smacking dark fruit. Both fresh and primary, but with nice tannin that will allow for years of aging.

95 Points (Cellar Selection), Wine Enthusiast
Sinewy, earthy and full of spice, this well-made wine is lush and sumptuous, with firm, focused tannins and integrated oak. Black cherry, cinnamon and nutmeg meld on the structured, full-bodied palate, with a graceful hint of dark chocolate on the finish. This will do well in the cellar; enjoy 2025–2030.

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.
90 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
Xavier Vignon’s brand spanking new CDR 100% is a thing of beauty. It’s already got a blessing from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate who described this wine as, “Full-bodied, concentrated and supple”. This is a gorgeous and intricate blend that features all of the Southern Rhone appellations. This year, the blend was 40% Grenache, 25% Mourvedre, 15% Syrah, 7% Cinsault, 7% Marselan, 6% Terret Noir. Nobody can do it like the mad scientist, Xavier Vignon.
100 Pts, Lisa Perotti-Brown (Wine Independent) – 98 Pts, James Suckling – 98 Pts, Parker’s Wine Advocate
“Deep garnet-purple colored, the nose slowly unfurls to unveil beguiling floral notes of candied violets and rose oil over a core of creme de cassis, blackberry pie, and plum preserves, giving way to notions of licorice, Indian spices, iron ore, and crushed rocks. Full-bodied, the palate is jam-packed with taut, muscular black fruit layers, intertwined with gorgeous floral and exotic spice accents, and framed by firm, finely grained tannins with seamless freshness, finishing long and mineral-laced. Tightly coiled with so much latent energy waiting to explode, this is a spectacular expression of the vintage and Napanook vineyard. Still tightly coiled, give it a good 6-7 years in the cellar before broaching, and allow it a few hours in a decanter if consumed before 2032.”
96 Points, Tim Atkin, MW
“This is the fourth vintage of Sandra Bravo’s brilliant old-vine Garnacha from Rivas de Tereso and it’s every bit as good as its predecessors. Aged in 300-litre clay amphoras, it’s wonderfully perfumed and intense, with engaging bramble and red cherry fruit sweetness, fine tannins and a long, energetic palate. Drink 2023-2032.”
