Ry Richards’ Fiancetto is a decidedly no-frills operation. It is a bare-bones Napa Valley Cabernet project but with a distinctly complex style that belies its start-up winery structure.
You see, Ry’s day job is at one of Napa’s iconic estates, Chappellet, where he assists Phil Titus in all aspects of sourcing and winemaking. It leaves him in the perfect position to carve out great lots of wine for his own labels. If these lots of wine bore the nationally branded label they were intended for, they would sell for twice the Nicholas Wines price. But, Fiancetto is still a start-up and Ry needs to sell almost as fast as he makes it so for those in the know, Fiancetto is always an incredible deal. In the case of the 2017, it’s just about half off!
The latest rendition of the Gravelly Loam cuvée was sourced from warm vineyard sites on the Valley floor; their old vines rooted in the well-drained, gravelly soil that is just perfect for producing ripe Cabernet. The 2017 is jet black to the rim with primary aromas of cigar box, black fruit and mocha. The wine is just packed, with jammy flavors of red current, plum, and black berries. The finish is long and fruity with ripe, supple tannins. This is a big and powerful Cab, perfect for a juicy steak or just by itself.
Drink now for the incredible primary fruit or cellar for the next 3-5 years. But don’t delay, as past customers will attest, there is never enough of any of the 50% off Fiancetto Cabernet bargains!

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.

“The 2018 Palmer is a legend in the making…This audacious Palmer was still revving its engines 48 hours after opening. There will never be another Palmer like this, sui generis. It was a massive risk. But by throwing caution to the wind, something extraordinary was born.” -100 points, Vinous
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.
This is a sensational single-vineyard Merlot made from incredibly tiny clusters, full of some of the most elegant, intensely structured fruit from high atop Sonoma Mountain. Beautiful weight and balance with aromas of blueberries, black currants, sage and a hint of cocoa. It’s got a full, plush mouthfeel, pristine and vibrant fruit and a wonderful smooth finish. Thanks to Chad’s big bet on himself, he was able to make a knockout Sonoma Mountain beauty, without the need for any middleman, helping us to enjoy one of his best creations at an outstanding price.
