#1 Wine of the Year Wine Spectator (2019 Vintage)
There’s not a whole lot to say about this one other than I wish I got a lot more. I was allocated two cases of half bottles of last year’s Wine Spectator Wine of the Year, in the brand new 2021 vintage. Multiple 100-point winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown crafts an absolutely gorgeous dark-fruited Cabernet Sauvignon in the new vintage that the folks at Schrader think is even better than their 2019. How is that even possible???
