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.

It’s no surprise the Wine Advocate has called the Ventoux a “screaming bargain.” Carved off the left bank of the Rhone River, the 2020 Delas Ventoux is a gorgeous medium-bodied wine with wonderful crushed red fruits, a silky mouthfeel, tremendous structure and that signature Rhone spice on the finish. I haven’t had this wine available for a few vintages, but I figure it’s the perfect springtime Red to bring back in the fold!
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 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.
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.”
