The wine came from Tenuta Sette Cieli or “The Estate of Seven Skies” named for the view atop the tiny estate, perched up on a hill overlooking Bolgheri from nearly 1300 ft. Also in view from the estate is the original Sassacaia vineyard, the most famous Super Tuscan and the wine responsible for birthing an entire category around non-indigenous Italian varietals.
But Super Tuscan has become synonymous with $50+ price tags and Sassacaia, Tenuta San Guido’s Super Tuscan from the neighboring vineyard sells for more than $200 as soon as it’s released! I assumed that’s the convo we were about to have. When he told me the price though, I laughed. Frankly, I thought he was pulling my leg. But he wasn’t.
The 2018 Tenuta Sette Cieli “Yantra” is an absolute stunner crafted by a rising winemaking star in Elena Pozzolini. Drawn off the high-ground of Bolgheri from Bordeaux varietals just like Sassacaia, it’s also a steal at just $26 per bottle. Buy it now. Buy it by the case. Buy it by the pallet. I’m still afraid my importer friend had his decimal in the wrong place.
Berried up with juicy notes of black cherry, licorice, red fruits, spice, leather and coffee beans. The acidity is well integrated with a freshness and vibrancy that stands out from the first taste. The mouthfeel is smooth and silky, mirroring a wine with three times the price tag. A Tuesday Nighter at its best– great with any food, ready to drink now or age gracefully for a few years.

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.
As soon as you take the first sip on this one, you can easily see the Burgundian connection. Doglia’s Ruche di Castagnole Monferrato 2022 is medium bodied with scents of fresh cut lavender. On the palate, it’s an absolute delight, full of flavor but with an acid backbone that make it perfect to pair with almost any cuisine. Notes of wild fruits and a touch of pepper are just so good. This is a silky smooth, delicious bottle of wine.

Far Niente’s beloved Napa Valley Cabernet comes from a who’s who of the best vineyard sites throughout Napa Valley. It’s a seamless Cabernet blend sourced from Oakville, Stag’s Leap, Diamond Mountain, St. Helena, Calistoga, Oak Knoll and the winery’s estate fruit in Yountville. The 2021 vintage is a particular high note – it’s a must-have for Big Red, Napa and Cabernet lovers.
This one comes from very old vines in eight different lieux-dits, with the largest portion coming from Le Fourneau. Harvest is all by hand, and this wine sees 18 months in barrels with only 10% new oak. Clement (rightfully) believes that keeping the oak primarily neutral here brings out the most authentic and intense expression of his Pinot Noirs. Take a sip or two of this and you will know exactly what I mean.
