Mount Veeder Winery is a beautiful, must-visit estate with three vineyards carved high in the hillsides of the Mayacamas Mountains overlooking south Napa. In total, the property stretches over 120 acres, but is mostly forest and brush, with just 47 acres planted to vine.
Their advantage over competitors comes from their unique vineyard altitudes ranging from 1,000–1,600 feet in elevation. Dramatically drawn off steep slopes that offer cool conditions– perfect for slow ripening, which extends the growing season. Mount Veeder is usually the last to harvest in Napa Valley. The result is fruit with highly concentrated flavors – big, bold and brambly. The Reserve Red bottling is their flagship bottling.

High-toned red but shows firmness and focus with polished velvety tannins and a lots of ripe fruit, hazelnut and walnut undertones.

The 2021 Auctioneer is a Napa Cabernet that sizzles at this price point, incredibly well built and food friendly, with impeccable balance and not overly alcoholic or ripe. It’s a wine that wins you over with finesse over strength but one that I’m certain will win you over nonetheless. A priceless ode to a late father and a Napa legend is available today at a price that’s hard to ignore.
90+ Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
“This estate in Saint-Christoly-Médoc has long produced great value, quintessentially Médoc-styled wines, and the 2016 La Tour St Bonnet has turned out especially well. Offering up aromas of sweet blackcurrant fruit intermingled with notions of loamy soil, tobacco leaf and vanilla pod, it’s medium to full-bodied, with powdery tannins and a nicely concentrated core of fruit. Robert Parker once described this estate as producing a miniature Grand-Puy-Lacoste, and that observation continues to resonate with me. While the 2016 drinks well today, a bit more time in the cellar will only pay dividends.” -Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
On the heels of a fabulous 2018 vintage, it seemed like the folks at Harlan Estate couldn’t go any higher. But with Harlan’s 2019 Estate earning a perfect 100-point score from Parker and the Bond Vecina nearly matching it with a 99, it’s clear that the wines being made here are a cut above everyone else. Lucky for us, The Mascot is a blend of Harlan, Bond and Promontory barrels. The Cabernet Sauvignon here is grown from some of the most spectacular vineyards in the entire Napa Valley. In the 2019 vintage, this is a dream come true for Will Harlan and company.

This one is an absolute beauty from the man behind the great Dominus and Inglenook projects, Christian Moueix. The wine is fantastic – far better than the Inglenook bottlings, some would even say equal to its big brother, Dominus. Still, at nearly half the price and with virtually the same huge scores, it’s one that you need to try for yourself – it deserves a place in the cellar without a doubt. It’s elegant and incredibly well-polished, sculpted with tremendous precision and focus throughout. The 97 points attached to it seems appropriate, especially in such a fantastic and ageworthy vintage. This one should enjoyed over the next 15-25 years.
