Thomas Rivers Brown is arguably the best and most famous winemaker in the entire United States. The California native has made over 30 wines that have been scored 100 points, with the majority being Cabernets with price tags well into the triple digits.
But ever since he teamed up with the beloved Round Pond Estate, Cabernet lovers have been able to get a taste of the superstar’s abilities for a whole heck of a lot less than they did for his Schrader or Maybach Cellars Cabernets.
Sure, you’re sacrificing a few points, but to be able to lock into a 92-point Thomas Rivers Brown Cabernet for $40, is an opportunity that just about never comes around anymore, especially given that the man has done everything there is to do in wine.
Almost all of the fruit that goes into this sleek, sexy Cab Sauv comes from Round Pond’s Rutherford estate, further making this one of the best bargains you’re going to find anywhere near Napa. But because these are Round Pond’s Kith & Kin wines, first made for their family and friends, the prices are incredibly juicy.

92 Points, Wine Spectator
Ripe and lush, but also fresh, with a very enticing beam of loganberry, açaí berry and raspberry fruit flavors driving through, flecked with anise and apple wood accents along the way. There’s focused, juicy energy through the finish.
92 Points, Tasting Panel
Dense and meaty, with an anise and roasted coffee backdrop. A parade of red and black fruit march around its upright structure. Finishes with a burnish of cinnamon cedar that keeps the palate satisfied.

Winemaker Pascal Sirat consistently puts out some of the best value Bordeaux in the region but he may have outdone himself in what was a stellar 2019 vintage throughout the region. Just south of Pomerol, the vines at Panchille borrow deep in the soil. The resulting wines are ripe but fresh, with an aromatic complexity and stony finish usually reserved for wine twice the price. Daniel Boulud tells me it’s been the hottest bottle of wine at Bar Boulud for over a month, so I figured I’d better hurry up and secure my allocation! Don’t miss it.

“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.”
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 is a sensational single-vineyard Merlot made from incredibly tiny clusters, full of some of the most elegant, intensely structured fruit from high atop Sonoma Mountain. Beautiful weight and balance with aromas of blueberries, black currants, sage and a hint of cocoa. It’s got a full, plush mouthfeel, pristine and vibrant fruit and a wonderful smooth finish. Thanks to Chad’s big bet on himself, he was able to make a knockout Sonoma Mountain beauty, without the need for any middleman, helping us to enjoy one of his best creations at an outstanding price.
