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 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.”
At J Vineyards, Nicole is nothing short of a magician, making 30 different skus or more each vintage between her Pinots, Chardonnays, and Sparkling wines. For the vineyard’s flagship Russian River Valley Pinot Noir, up to 100 individual small lots are combined to make this great wine. Somehow, the blend is effortless–a quintessential RRV Pinot that has those soaring aromatics, bright red fruits, clove, and nutmeg spice with perfect balance.
Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!

This is a really exciting new release in the collection of single-vineyards from the Wagner Family, and arguably the most interesting one of the bunch. This is the only Pinot Noir in the Caymus collection that has the advantage of being from a natural Pinot Noir haven in the Russian River Valley. Dairyman Vineyard’s proximity to the pacific ocean, with its morning fog and afternoon coastal breezes allows for an even and elongated growing season, with super concentrated and expressive grape clusters that help make this Dijon clone Pinot Noir one that you need.
