For years, Matt Cline has been one of Nicholas Wines favorite winemakers, consistently over-delivering on every project I’ve seen him work on. Many of you know him for his work with Zinfandel, Mourvedre and Carignan. But his Cabernets are easily my favorite in his arsenal. Here’s why.
Unlike the zinfandel and red blend varieties that are made to drink in their youth, Matt’s Cabernet program is much more patient and deliberate. Though he obtains a mere block of fruit from Suscol Creek vineyard for this Cabernet, he has the wine sit in new French Oak barrels for 22 months where they beautiful integrate with the wood and smooth the racy wine into a well structured animal.
Hailing from southern Napa Valley and the same vineyard where nearly a quarter of Phelps 2015 Insignia was drawn from, Matt Cline’s big brawny 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon was crafted. Patiently aged for 22 months in French oak, the Three Suscol Creek Cabernet Sauvignon is made from fruit grown on Block 5 of the Suscol Creek Vineyard. It boasts flavors of blackberry, figs and black currants with notes of tobacco and cedar. The wine is dense and rich with a synchronized, silky texture and firm tannins giving it a lush mouthfeel and a lengthy finish.

Textbook, full-bodied, revved up and ready to go, this new Caymus Napa Valley Cabernet is the definition of a crowd pleaser.

This is a really exciting new release in the collection of single-vineyards from the Wagner Family, and arguably the most interesting one of the bunch. This is the only Pinot Noir in the Caymus collection that has the advantage of being from a natural Pinot Noir haven in the Russian River Valley. Dairyman Vineyard’s proximity to the pacific ocean, with its morning fog and afternoon coastal breezes allows for an even and elongated growing season, with super concentrated and expressive grape clusters that help make this Dijon clone Pinot Noir one that you need.
The newly released Fiancetto Howell Mt. Cabernet is a dream – a gorgeous, elegant dark-fruited Cabernet Sauvignon that is it picks up time in the glass, unfurls its full signature of cedar laced cassis nose and mid palate of chocolate-covered cherries and savory spices. Only four palates of this (224 cases) were made off a gorgeous, sprawling high elevation spot 1500 feet above sea level. It’s full and plush and finishes fresh and oh so long. The price is crazy for Howell Mountain Cabernet but that’s what Ry Richards and Fiancetto is all about.
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.
