Similarly to Tuscany, and how winemakers, money, and resources have flocked to Maremma as the next big thing – the Red Hills and Lake County in California is all the hot new rage. Located just north of Calistoga and just south of the Mendocino National Forest, the slightly cooler temps, unplanted land and volcanic and obsidian heavy soils are very attractive sales points.
The region has the big players from Napa lining up around the corner to get in. So far, Andy Beckstoffer has made a number of strategic investments up North. In the next few years, many will follow.
Before they do though, those who were first to the region can offer up some spectacular bargains. Today’s wine is the perfect example. Wine icon Jed Steele has been in Lake County since 1991 making wines. He identified the unknown region early as a place to make big, bold expressions of Cabernet that still remained balanced and well-structured. His 2019 Red Hills Cab is just that, and it’s perfect as we get into grill season.

This bold and tightly wound wine shows super concentrated black-cherry and dark-chocolate flavors laced with firm tannins that make it a bit mouthpuckering at this stage. But all that compact fruit in the middle should become more complex with time as the tannins soften. Best from 2025.

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!
#3 Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines of 2021
96 Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate – 95 Points, Wine Spectator
We are one of the very few folks who have Wine Spectator’s #3 Wine of the Year. This is definitely not one to miss. The 2016 vintage showcases this prized vineyard in all its glory; notes of wild black fruit, thyme, mint, eucalyptus, and bay are lifted and enjoyed with the polished tannin and mouthwatering freshness of this wine. Regarded as one of the best vintages in the last few decades, the 2016 Martha’s Vineyard has been aged to perfection for immediate enjoyment at release and will continue to reward for the next 20+ years.
#24 Wine of the Year (2022), Wine Spectator
92 Points, Wine Spectator – 91 Points, James Suckling
“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.”
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.
