Thanksgiving is the type of occasion that is infinitely improved by having great wines on the table. This year, I have you covered in a big way. We found a number of absolute gems – some extremely highly rated, all great values and perfect for Turkey day. Then, we discounted the case 34% from its SRP. That’s a slamming deal – and our biggest discount ever.
Four very different wines (three bottles each) that all bring something different to the table offered up a great price that amounts for big savings! A delicious Russian River Pinot Noir that is always a NW favorite, the return of the Gobbler-exclusive Chad McKinley Springs Cabernet Sauvignon, a very highly rated, juiced up Sangiovese from the kings of Chianti, iconic Castello di Volpaia and last but not least, a double-90 point gorgeous bottle of bubbles in the form of a zippy yet elegant Crémant d’Alsace Brut Rosé courtesy of Pierre Sparr. A little something for everyone for $110/case OFF the regular price (34%). You simply cannot beat this Gobbler Case!
The 2022 Gobbler Case includes 3 bottles of each:
Davis Bynum Pinot Noir Russian River Valley 2018 (91pts, WE – 91pts, JS)
Chad Cabernet Sauvignon McKinley Springs 2020 (Gobbler Exclusive)
Castello di Volpaia Chianti Classico 2020 (93 pts, JS – 92 Pts, WS)
Pierre Sparr Crement d’Alsace Brut Rose N.V. (Double 90+ Pt Scores)
Davis Bynum Pinot Noir Russian River Valley 2018
The Pinot Noir they make is always crafted like a painter going to work on a blank canvas. Petaluma Gap for its richness. The darkness and silky tannin provided by the warmer Santa Rosa plains fruit. And then the cherry on top is the rich, deep spice element – provided by a very special lot from the Middle Reach Neighborhood on West Side Road. A little bit of everything that all comes together. The result is spicy, generous Pinot that drinks well above its station due to the quality of the single parcels that were so expertly chosen. It’s pretty dang hard to resist.
Chad Cabernet Sauvignon McKinley Springs 2020
Chad’s latest Cabernet project is about a savvy a play as I’ve seen from him and that’s saying a lot. He found a few choice plots in the Horse Heaven Hills that really deliver juicy, powerful, full-bodied Cabernets with great acidic backbones that make it an exceptional choice with a lot of different foods. But then you factor in his winemaking expertise and you really his newest project is a about another near half off stunner that is the epitome of why everyone loves the Chad wines.
Castello di Volpaia Chianti Classico 2020
Most folks at Nicholas Wines know Castello di Volpaia as the winery responsible for the highest ever rated Chianti Riserva in the history of Wine Spectator, despite a rather modest price tag. It just speaks to the exceptional quality of this producer and how they can out-class all their neighbors, even the folks at $350+/bottle. Their regular Chianti Classico is perhaps the best value in Chianti each year, and in 2020 this is no exception. We didn’t get enough of this gem thanks to a big 93-point score from Suckling and a 92-point score from Wine Spectator that accompanied it on release. But I got enough to include it today. This is a ‘must-have’ bottle come Thanksgiving time.
Pierre Sparr Crement d’Alsace Brut Rose N.V.
This is an awesome pink Sparkler that absolutely jumps out of the glass. A Brut made from 100% Pinot Noir, it’s a gorgeous salmon hue with fresh aromas of strawberry and raspberry. On the palate, it’s round and fruity with hints of peach. The flavors are intense, with lively acidity framed by a well-made structure and delicate bubbles. The finish is smooth, clean and dry, making it a great sparkler to pair with food, but there’s so much personality here – it can easily stand alone as well.

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.
In the 2020 vintage in Gevrey-Chambertin, yields were super low and temperatures were hotter than most Burgundian winemakers are accustomed. Many picked too late when the sugars were high and the fruit really ripe, but that was not the play. Still, Ann remained as cool in those hot temps as she did so many years ago in Napa, concentrating more on acid levels than sugars and picking at just the right time. This wine is absolutely singing – it’s an age-worthy beauty that should be even better in 4-7 years.

“Vignon’s 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape delivers even more than I hoped for based on a previous sample. Hints of garrigue, roses, cherries and raspberries appear on the nose, while the palate is full-bodied, silky and long, with an intense, almost briny finish. The assemblage is 50% Grenache, 10% each Mourvèdre and Syrah, plus smaller proportions of seven other permitted varieties, while the élevage includes foudres, demi-muids, concrete and wooden tanks, plus terracotta amphorae.”
92 Points, James Suckling
Since the late 1990’s Penner-Ash has been viewed as one of Oregon’s top wineries making gorgeous wines in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. In the 2021 vintage considered to be one of Oregon’s all-time great years, the 2021 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir that Lynn crafted is gorgeous, a silky tightly woven number that mixes red and black fruits with some sage and baking spices and a savory finish. It’s got some nice weight to it and structure which suggests it’ll age well for the next 10-15 years though it’s already drinking beautifully in its youth.
