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.

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!

Damien has crafted a delicious Médoc, full of character with dense black currant and cherry fruit, cedar, tobacco and wonderful complexity. It’s silky complexion is what pushes it over the edge (and, of course, the price!) It doesn’t hurt that it comes from a 95-point Left Bank vintage that the Wine Advocate declared, “outstanding.”
The 2021 Napa Valley East side Cuvee is an instant classic. From the first whiff to the moment it hits the lips, its clear that this is a fabulously concentrated, serious wine: black in color, and featuring aromas of cassis, cedar and chocolate-tinged purple fruit. The mouthfeel is plush and voluptuous with a firm, solid finish that speaks to its potential for considerable aging.

The new release is here from outstanding winemaking team of Michel Rolland, Charles Thomas, Andy Erickson and David Jelenik. This one always represents one of the best quality-to-price ratios in all of Napa Cab and in the stellar 2021 vintage, this really stands out as one of the best the Valley has to offer. It’s a racy mix of Coombsville fruit from Atlas Peak that absolutely roars out of the bottle. Always one of Napa’s great bargains and a must have even as the price starts to sneak up here a little bit.
