Seth was fast and furious on leaving his mark on the California wine industry. Joining Swanson at the age of 17, it was only three years before he was plucked to join the team at Caymus. And while working his way up the ranks, it was Seth that Chuck Wagner tasked with leading their new Pinot project which involved Chuck sending Seth to Burgundy for four months to bring back the secrets of high-density planting.
Never one to slow down, Seth left to start something of his own – LOLA – in 2008. His approach was incredibly refreshing. “I wanted to stand for quality. I wanted to make wines that have integrity and purity at good price points that I could afford to drink.”
The critics took notice.
“Seth Cripe set out to make a range of delicious, affordable wines. The Lola wines are fresh, bright and made without a lot of fanfare, all of which make them ideal for informal drinking.”
— Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media
At 22 bucks it’s another sensational value from Seth to drink over the coming couple of years.

Seth never really had to struggle to sell his wines. You see, Seth’s side hustle is one of the hottest restaurant caviar brands (served at The French Laundry, Per Se, Meadowood, Bottega, Marea, Boulud, etc …) and his amazingly priced small production Chardonnay was gobbled up upon release.

90 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
The 2017 Chardonnay Sonoma Coast went through full malolactic and was aged for five months in 30% two- to four-year-old French oak. It opens with toasty oak and baked apples notes over nuances of lemon tart, baked peaches and acacia honey. Medium to full-bodied, the palate delivers loads of oak-laced stone and citrus fruit flavors and a zesty lift to the finish. A little old-skool, but nicely done!

Stephan Steinmetz is a star in the Mosel wine region. His old vines are rooted in Kimmeridgian limestone, the exact same vein of rock that winds its way from Sancerre through Chablis and Champagne to its final out-cropping here in the Obermosel. His Elbling is glorious — both completely unlike anything I’ve ever had and also eerily familiar. The color is almost clear, some might call it silver. A stunning nose of green apples and lemon peel gives way to fresh pear and bright citrus fruits on the palate. It’s a stunningly focused wine with a healthy dose of minerality and acid zip, not unlike great Sancerre/Chablis and bone dry.
Elena Walch’s newly released 2022 Pinot Bianco continues to be the best example of Pinot Blanc anywhere. She’s the undisputed queen. There’s so much energy in this new release. Super light in color, with a busy nose that boasts ripe aromas of citrus, granny smith apple with a hint of freshly mowed grass. Made entirely in stainless steel, the wine is expressive, fresh and finishes as clean and tight as can be. Definitely will continue the run of 90+ scores once this one is reviewed.
It’s an electric white Burgundy, with a limestone-laced aromatic profile of green apple, pear and hazelnut. Refined and high-toned, the pure, delicious fruit that is a hallmark of this terrific vintage, finishes long and fresh, with a mile-long mineral streak.
Just in time, we got back Vincent Ricard’s all-time great white wine bargain. This is a crisp, clean and flat out delicious Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc. The protege to the Silex-style of Dagueneau – who over the last 15 years has produced flawless and beloved white wines that at last count were on the wine lists of over 36 Michelin-starred restaurants. This is a great house white and one that can surely hold its own with just about everything on the table.
