Twice named International Wine & Spirit Competition’s Best Argentine Producer, Herve Fabre Montmayou is consistently one of the best wineries Argentina has to offer. The Malbec is sourced from one of the most extreme environments in the world. Its ancient vines are rooted in sandy desert high above the Rio Negro, where temperatures can swing 45 degrees in either direction, not an easy place to grow grapes. But it is those extremes that bring out the best in Malbec, black, opulent fruit yet with aromatic complexity and freshness, this is a big boy that can dance!

A great compliment to red meat, roasted pork, poultry or a nice cheese and meat plate appetizer.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Deep ruby; medium-plus intensity with aromas of black cherry, blackcurrant, bramble a hint of vanilla ( oak) and black pepper.
The wine is dry with low acidity, medium-plus grippy tannins, medium-plus body and high alcohol. The flavour intensity is pronounced with characteristics of black cherry, blackberry, blackcurrant, dried plum, vanilla and bramble. It has a medium finish and smooth silky texture.
The wine is good but not very good. The fruit concentration is high however it lacks any complexity. It lacks balance whilst the tannin and alcohol dominate the low acidity results in an otherwise flat flavour profile.
Acceptable quality for a $15.50 wine but would not buy again.
