Their Mathiasson wine project has made them something of superstars, though you’d never know it by meeting the family. Steve currently consults for a who’s who of the best of the best: Araujo, Spottswoode, Chappellet, Sinskey, Stags Leap and Long Meadow Ranch amongst the dozen plus wineries who count on him to care for their vineyards. During his night job, he cares for his own vineyards personally– driving the tractor and working with the crews on Sunday.
Unlike most of the Napa crowd, Steve and his wife aren’t uber rich folks who bought their land or inherited it from generational wealth. Instead, the two work their butts off- Steve barters his services for grape contracts here and there and Jill, in addition to consulting, grows her own fruit and vegetables that she regularly sells to local farmer’s markets.
Perhaps their unrivaled dedication to their land, their sustainable practices and their oceans of knowledge in farming, sustainability and combatting climate change is the reason for their consistent placing in “Top 100 wineries in the World” rankings, Steve’s “winemaker of the year” award or the 6 James Beard nominations. Or… maybe it’s just that their wine is friggin delicious.
The New York Times’ Eric Asimov, called Matthiasson wines, “…As fresh, lively and alive as the best produce from a farmers’ market.” One sip of this 2018 Village Cabernet and you’ll know exactly what he’s talking about. It’s a symphony of flavors all perfectly tied together with tremendous energy and tension.

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.
#3 Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines of 2021
96 Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate – 95 Points, Wine Spectator
We are one of the very few folks who have Wine Spectator’s #3 Wine of the Year. This is definitely not one to miss. The 2016 vintage showcases this prized vineyard in all its glory; notes of wild black fruit, thyme, mint, eucalyptus, and bay are lifted and enjoyed with the polished tannin and mouthwatering freshness of this wine. Regarded as one of the best vintages in the last few decades, the 2016 Martha’s Vineyard has been aged to perfection for immediate enjoyment at release and will continue to reward for the next 20+ years.
The newly released Fiancetto Howell Mt. Cabernet is a dream – a gorgeous, elegant dark-fruited Cabernet Sauvignon that is it picks up time in the glass, unfurls its full signature of cedar laced cassis nose and mid palate of chocolate-covered cherries and savory spices. Only four palates of this (224 cases) were made off a gorgeous, sprawling high elevation spot 1500 feet above sea level. It’s full and plush and finishes fresh and oh so long. The price is crazy for Howell Mountain Cabernet but that’s what Ry Richards and Fiancetto is all about.
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!
