Talbott is one of California’s premier wineries. The secret in their arsenal is their famous estate vineyard, Sleepy Hollow, one of Santa Lucia Highlands oldest, most well- respected and coldest temperature spots in the region. It was deemed a ‘Grand Cru’ California vineyard by Wine Enthusiast and it’s also the vineyard source for Talbott’s perfect 100-point review from Wine Spectator some years ago.
Today it’s the home to countless expertly crafted Pinot Noirs, most seeing 95 points or more from wine critics, and most priced at $75/bottle or more. But as we knock on December’s door, our friends at Talbott gave us a special offer that reads like a misprint and I jumped on it without giving it a second thought.
$45/bottle on release for Talbott’s Sleepy Hollow Estate Pinot Noir 2016. $32.99/bottle is the absolute lowest price online you could find … before today.

Dried-strawberry and orange-peel aromas. Dusty, dry earth. Full body, round and juicy tannins and a long and flavorful finish. This is real pinot noir character. Drink now and enjoy.

At J Vineyards, Nicole is nothing short of a magician, making 30 different skus or more each vintage between her Pinots, Chardonnays, and Sparkling wines. For the vineyard’s flagship Russian River Valley Pinot Noir, up to 100 individual small lots are combined to make this great wine. Somehow, the blend is effortless–a quintessential RRV Pinot that has those soaring aromatics, bright red fruits, clove, and nutmeg spice with perfect balance.

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.

Damien has crafted a delicious Médoc, full of character with dense black currant and cherry fruit, cedar, tobacco and wonderful complexity. It’s silky complexion is what pushes it over the edge (and, of course, the price!) It doesn’t hurt that it comes from a 95-point Left Bank vintage that the Wine Advocate declared, “outstanding.”

“The 2020 Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is truly sensational. It begins with striking aromas of fresh blackberries, blueberries and dark plums that are laced with fresh spring florals, mocha, sweet exotic spices, graphite and gravel nuances all taking shape. The palate is full-bodied and displays a remarkable combination of power and elegance throughout. This is beautifully structured and extremely expressive, as it possesses outstanding depth and concentration all they way through the long, finessed finish. Year after year, the Columbia Valley Cabernet is one of the most impressive wines, and there is no exception here, as it combines all the wonderful qualities of the 2020 vintage from Quilceda Creek into one expression. This is fantastic already and readers will be in for a real treat, as this simply marvelous wine will continue to deliver the goods for years to come.”
