Dr. Paul Skinner knows as much about vineyard soil as just about anyone in the world. The “wine doctor” got his p.h.D from UC Davis in 1988 for Soil Science and Viticulture while simultaneously working for wine icons Louis M. Martini and Chuck Wagner of Caymus and helping them navigate through the difficult phylloxera epidemic of the late 1980’s.
His reputation for plant and soil health spread like wildfire with the best wineries up and down California lining up to leverage his expertise. He has worked with Beaulieu, Robert Mondavi, Sutter Home, Domaine Chandon, Hanzell, Hess Collection, Sebastiana, Chateau St. Jean, Whitehall Lane, Chimney Rock, Iron Horse, Pride Mountain, Paloma, Terra Valentine and David Abreu’s portfolio of clients… to name a few.
With meticulously tended vineyards by the “Wine Doctor” Paul Skinner, a vintage like 2014 will pretty much take care of itself. Skinner is loath to take credit for the perfection that hit this bottle, instead saying that when conditions are particularly favorable, healthy plants produce exceptional fruit.This striking cab blend is enormous and at 43% OFF on bottle one, 49% OFF on case purchases, it’s a steal. If you want a wine that’s big enough to answer your every day barbecue needs, this one is up for the task.

When I tasted this wine last week, I immediately thought one thing, this full-bodied Red would be perfect with some Spring grilling.

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.
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.
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.
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.
