Today, we were lucky enough to lock into a needle in a haystack. A 98-point Napa Valley Cabernet courtesy of a winemaker who came from Michel Rolland, Staglin and David Abreu, and Jim Barbour, arguably the most famous and well-respected vineyard manager in the U.S. Robert Parker, Jr. himself warned all his readers a few years back, “these are all super impressive wines, so consumers should get on the Sinegal bandwagon before it becomes better known.”
Today’s wine is a complete bombshell, as you can imagine. It has outpointed Napa Cabernets that go for quadruple the price or more… a lot of them. Antonio Galloni totally raved in his 98-point review calling the wine “magnificent” “capturing all the pedigree of the vintage” and a “fabulous showing.” He even called his tasting at Sinegal one of the highlights of his month spent reviewing wines in Napa. What we have is really that good.
The 2019 Sinegal Cabernet Sauvignon is a stud. Even at $90/bottle it offers one of the absolute best values of any varietal in any wine region in the world made in 2019. It’s flawless. Rated higher than or the the same as Colgin, Bryant Family, Ovid, Abreu and Bond in the vintage– and available at just a fraction of the price. This is a collector’s item you simply cannot pass up, it’s got everything you’re looking for in a Napa Valley Cab.

98 Points, Antonio Galloni – Vinous
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is every bit as magnificent as it was last year. A heady, statuesque wine, the 2019 captures all the pedigree of the vintage. Inky red cherry fruit, mocha, licorice and spice race across the palate. The 2019 is bright, deep and powerful, with exceptional balance and tons of class. It’s a stunning wine, to say the least. The move towards a slightly less pushed style, with less overt oak signatures, has paid off big time. This is a fabulous showing.

93 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate – 93 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
“Vignon’s 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape delivers even more than I hoped for based on a previous sample. Hints of garrigue, roses, cherries and raspberries appear on the nose, while the palate is full-bodied, silky and long, with an intense, almost briny finish. The assemblage is 50% Grenache, 10% each Mourvèdre and Syrah, plus smaller proportions of seven other permitted varieties, while the élevage includes foudres, demi-muids, concrete and wooden tanks, plus terracotta amphorae.”
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.
Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!
95 Points, Jeb Dunnuck – 95 Points, Lisa Perotti-Brown
The oft 100-point winemaker, Jayson Woodbridge had this to say when tasting his 2021 ‘Stargazing’ Sonoma Pinot: “The wine is vibrant and complex with subtle dark fruits and berries, grandmother’s cherry pie, minerals, and a slight touch of rain-soaked earth, intertwined with a balance and very pleasing easy-going luxury. Should have been priced higher but what the hell.” I have no doubt this clerical error will be addressed in the vintages moving forward. But for now, this is a cult Pinot for under $100/bottle.
