Matt has always had an ace up his sleeve – 125-year-old vineyards planted on the rolling Delhi sand just across the bay by his grandfather and a few other family friends. The bush-trained vines struggle each year to produce the tiniest amount of fruit producing wines of immense character unlike anything you’ve ever tasted anywhere in the U.S.
When we offered this back in April, it was quickly gobbled up by Zinfandel lovers. But that was before the critics spoke. This summer, both Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast wrote glowing 91-pt score (the latter gave it an Editors’ Choice designation) reviews about the wine. We got a little worried. Would the wine still be around in the fall? Yes, yes it would. As long as we didn’t wait until November!
This is a must buy for any fans of big, dense, complex wines and the one Zinfandel blend that gets Napa Cab fans raving.

91 Pts, Wine Spectator
Refined and well-built, with vibrant wild berry, smoky sage and pepper flavors that take on speed toward polished tannins. Drink now through 2025.
91 Pts, (Editors’ Choice) Wine Enthusiast
This wine is a good all-around performer that starts with effusive berry and spice aromas, followed by mouth filling raspberry and blackberry flavors. Interesting nuances of dried herbs and light oak tones arise on the full-bodied palate.
This is a must buy for any fans of big, dense, complex wines and seemingly the one Zinfandel blend that gets Napa Cab fans raving.

The new release is here from outstanding winemaking team of Michel Rolland, Charles Thomas, Andy Erickson and David Jelenik. This one always represents one of the best quality-to-price ratios in all of Napa Cab and in the stellar 2021 vintage, this really stands out as one of the best the Valley has to offer. It’s a racy mix of Coombsville fruit from Atlas Peak that absolutely roars out of the bottle. Always one of Napa’s great bargains and a must have even as the price starts to sneak up here a little bit.
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.
Winemaker Kian Tavakoli (Opus One, Clos du Val) continues to excel even while others struggle. In 2017, he still managed to deliver a beautiful and opulent Napa Valley Cabernet that’s both dark and juicy. The wine hails from both Coombsville and Rutherford, giving it distinct characteristics and a lot of drive. Deep ruby to the rim with excellent concentration, notes of Bing cherries, raspberry pie and hints of vanilla. On the palate, big wonderfully jammy fruit with young but impressive tannins and great length. The finish leaves notes of black cherry, and baked blueberry pie. Fantastic Napa value.

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.
