Some wines just make no financial sense. I guess it helps if you don’t need the money.
Billionaire Alejandro Bulgheroni spared no expense in crafting a world class Napa Winery. The valley’s most exclusive vineyards? Check. Beckstoffer (To Kalon, Las Piedras Vineyard, Dr. Crane).
The world’s foremost winemaker? Nope. How about three? So he tapped New Zealand born Matt Sands (Screaming Eagle, Bryant Family) and the two most famous wine consultants in the world, Phillipe Melka (Petrus, Haut-Brion, Ridge, Silver Oak) and Michel Rolland (too many wineries to name).
With To Kalon and Dr. Crane fruit at their disposal and the world’s best winemaking team, these wines typically never see the light of day beyond their tiny allocation list. But in 2020, anything is possible, and for us that means that Pursuit Cabernet Sauvignon is up for grabs at a ridiculous price.

The newly released Fiancetto Howell Mt. Cabernet is a dream – a gorgeous, elegant dark-fruited Cabernet Sauvignon that is it picks up time in the glass, unfurls its full signature of cedar laced cassis nose and mid palate of chocolate-covered cherries and savory spices. Only four palates of this (224 cases) were made off a gorgeous, sprawling high elevation spot 1500 feet above sea level. It’s full and plush and finishes fresh and oh so long. The price is crazy for Howell Mountain Cabernet but that’s what Ry Richards and Fiancetto is all about.

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.

“This supple red shows a core of cherry and plum fruit allied to olive, juniper and tobacco notes. Delivers well-integrated tannins and acidic structure, lingering nicely on the finish.”
