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.

It’s always nice to be in good standing with one of the most beloved wine brands in America! These won’t last long! This is an opulent, powerful dark-fruited Cabernet with tightly woven tannins, that is just raring and ready to go. Textbook, full-bodied, revved up and ready to go, this new Caymus Napa Valley Cabernet is the definition of a crowd pleaser.
94 Points, Tasting Panel
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.
It’s no surprise the Wine Advocate has called the Ventoux a “screaming bargain.” Carved off the left bank of the Rhone River, the 2020 Delas Ventoux is a gorgeous medium-bodied wine with wonderful crushed red fruits, a silky mouthfeel, tremendous structure and that signature Rhone spice on the finish. I haven’t had this wine available for a few vintages, but I figure it’s the perfect springtime Red to bring back in the fold!
91 Points, Wine Enthusiast
Always the one with the most personality of the bunch, this is what Wine Enthusiast had to say about the 2021 release: “This extremely ripe and bold style of Pinot Noir will please those seeking such lushness. Dark in the glass, it begins with black cherry, toasty caramel and cola milk shake aromas.” The cool, coastal days and abundance of sunshine lines up perfectly for a wine that has a good natural acidic backbone, with bold fruit-forward flavors. In an easy 2021 vintage, Joe Wagner had a field day with this single-vineyard beauty.
