Britt Nichols resume speaks volume on her potential as a budding Cabernet star. Stints at Jordan, Peter Michael and most currently, Philippe Melka, have prepared her to make stunning wine from a myriad of appellations. Her debut Knights Valley Cab, Origins, is so good, with dark, hedonistic fruit and fish that goes a country mile. It might be near impossible not to drink these bottles quickly as the fruit is so good but don’t be afraid to lose a few bottles in a proper cellar. Like Britt herself, this wine has loads of potential.
The best part of any deal with Britt is that we are still in the infancy of a brand in the making. It’s not so easy to carve out time to sell wine when you have a day job AND a demanding newborn to tend to. The raw materials of Nichols Origins, the Grand-Cru, low yielding vineyard fruit, the new barrels not to mention her education, add up to a $50+ type wine. But Britt wasn’t working the books at Jordan, Melka or Peter Michael, she was learning how to make great wine. This is an amazing deal considering what was put into the bottle.
This is lights out Cabernet. Don’t miss it.

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.
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!
This is Joe Wagner and Quilt’s inaugural Red blend called Threadcount. It is a total knockout at the price point for this style of wine. It’s a big voluptuous wine and very fruit forward. The nose is straight up dark chocolate dipped raspberries and it tastes of fresh-baked blueberry pie, spice, and a touch of toffee. It’s the kind of quality blend that you’ve come to expect from the family behind Caymus.
90-92 Pts, Parker’s Wine Advocate – 91 Pts (Editors’ Choice), Wine Enthusiast – 91 Pts, Decanter
The wines get consistent high praise but 2018 is truly something special. 90-92 from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. 91 points and an Editor’s Choice designation from Wine Enthusiast. 91 more from Decanter who provides “There is so much to enjoy in the smaller appellations this year. Drinking Window 2022 – 2031” and another 90 point score from James Suckling. This is a home run value – especially for the price.
