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.

Incredibly food friendly especially with grilled veggies, burgers or meats.
In the 2020 vintage in Gevrey-Chambertin, yields were super low and temperatures were hotter than most Burgundian winemakers are accustomed. Many picked too late when the sugars were high and the fruit really ripe, but that was not the play. Still, Ann remained as cool in those hot temps as she did so many years ago in Napa, concentrating more on acid levels than sugars and picking at just the right time. This wine is absolutely singing – it’s an age-worthy beauty that should be even better in 4-7 years.
The secret to Philippe’s tightly wound, complex Pinot Noir is a combo of ancient vines, natural farming techniques, and low yields. The wines are built to age, with incredible tension and length. And the secret to me securing his other-wordly 2017 old-vine Gevry-Chambertin can be chalked up to a great relationship and over a decade supporting superior Burgundian winemaking. The wine is scary good. The nose is wild, filled with spiced dark raspberries, red flowers, and baking spices. The palate is elegant and racy, with a dynamic tension that runs right through its minute-long finish. This is a high-toned, wound-up Pinot, that is starting to hit its prime and is really turning out to be a ‘must-have’ for true Burgundy lovers.

“The 2018 Palmer is a legend in the making…This audacious Palmer was still revving its engines 48 hours after opening. There will never be another Palmer like this, sui generis. It was a massive risk. But by throwing caution to the wind, something extraordinary was born.” -100 points, Vinous
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.
