Nieto Senetiner has been a major player in Mendoza since the late 1800’s. They were first founded by Italian immigrants who thought that Malbecs could be far more sophisticated than what was being made at the time. They prioritized barrel-select blending and additional oak aging, two pioneering decisions that have been replicated a million times over since then. But the originators continue to separate themselves from the rest of the pack with their elegant Big Reds such as today’s Malbec.
Of course, when your wine is this good at this good of a price, all the wine critics come calling. Unsurprisingly, this one has a trio of strong press. The Wine Advocate gave it a 90 and called the wine “very good value” and a “very good introduction to Malbec from Mendoza.” Wine Enthusiast echoed that with their own 90, and blessed the wine with their coveted ‘Best Buy’ designation. But it was James Suckling who dared to bump the stakes even higher, even for a wine under $15/bottle. He came in at 92 points, calling it “soft and creamy with a medium body and fine, polished tannins.”
Our fourth case-only offer of the year is a no-brainer. Triple 90-points for a killer new Malbec, and if you’re local, we’ll even throw it in the original wooden boxes (for local van delivery or pickup only) at no extra cost. That’s how you beat inflation…and drink some damn good wine in the process.

92 Points, James Suckling
Ripe blueberries and plums with violets, sweet vanilla and dark chocolate. Soft and creamy with medium body and fine, polished tannins. Ripe and mellow berry character and a firm finish. Drink or hold
90 Points (Best Buy), Wine Enthusiast
Fresh and youthful, this red shows cherry and baking spices on the nose. It’s fruit-forward and has juicy red and black fruit flavors blended with herbs. Good acidity freshens and lengthens the finish.
90 Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate
Only 20% of the volume matured in barrel for eight months. It’s fresh, clean and fruit-driven, with berry fruit, herbs and flowers. It has a medium-bodied palate with very fine tannins and is dry, vibrant and nicely textured with fine tannins. Very good value and a very good introduction to Malbec from Mendoza.

The secret to Philippe’s tightly wound, complex Pinot Noir is a combo of ancient vines, natural farming techniques, and low yields. The wines are built to age, with incredible tension and length. And the secret to me securing his other-wordly 2017 old-vine Gevry-Chambertin can be chalked up to a great relationship and over a decade supporting superior Burgundian winemaking. The wine is scary good. The nose is wild, filled with spiced dark raspberries, red flowers, and baking spices. The palate is elegant and racy, with a dynamic tension that runs right through its minute-long finish. This is a high-toned, wound-up Pinot, that is starting to hit its prime and is really turning out to be a ‘must-have’ for true Burgundy lovers.
90 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
Xavier Vignon’s brand spanking new CDR 100% is a thing of beauty. It’s already got a blessing from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate who described this wine as, “Full-bodied, concentrated and supple”. This is a gorgeous and intricate blend that features all of the Southern Rhone appellations. This year, the blend was 40% Grenache, 25% Mourvedre, 15% Syrah, 7% Cinsault, 7% Marselan, 6% Terret Noir. Nobody can do it like the mad scientist, Xavier Vignon.
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.
With seemingly infinite access to some of the absolute very best vineyards in the most choice AVAs in the valley, the Wagner’s set out to make Quilt– a Cabernet blend from a patchwork of the top sites in Napa (Oakville, St Helena, Atlas Peak, Coombsville, Calistoga, and Howell Mountain.) The brand new 2021 edition is a beauty – deeply concentrated, rich and a truly show stopping Cabernet. It’s a dark, hedonistic blend that combines elegance with power and pairs the two together effortlessly.
