Phil Titus was already a beast in Napa Valley and pretty much everybody knew it. But the 100-point score for his 2016 Chappellet launched him to immediate international acclaim.
And while everyone needs a day job, Phil’s passion project was the one with his brother, Eric, producing knockout wines off the family property. The estate is in the heart of the St. Helena Appellation at the base of Howell Mountain. The vines flow seamlessly from the Silverado Trail to the Napa River, separated into 16 blocks.
This is quite literally, priceless real estate today. Phil’s parents bought ‘the ranch’ in 1968 and as one of Napa’s revolutionary pioneers, immediately ripped out the cash cow jug grapes that had been growing there for 50 years – Mondeuce, Burger, and Golden Chasselas. Their thought was given the mixture of dusty clay, sand, and river loam soils and the perfect weather – Bordeaux varieties could rival their French counterparts.
They were right and for years, the Napa elite gobbled up all their grapes for their wines. Only in the Phil and Eric decide to produce and bottle the wine under the family crest. The wines have been remarkable but none more so than the 2018 from Wine Spectator’s 99-point vintage.

#3 Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines of 2021
96 Points, Parker’s Wine Advocate – 95 Points, Wine Spectator
We are one of the very few folks who have Wine Spectator’s #3 Wine of the Year. This is definitely not one to miss. The 2016 vintage showcases this prized vineyard in all its glory; notes of wild black fruit, thyme, mint, eucalyptus, and bay are lifted and enjoyed with the polished tannin and mouthwatering freshness of this wine. Regarded as one of the best vintages in the last few decades, the 2016 Martha’s Vineyard has been aged to perfection for immediate enjoyment at release and will continue to reward for the next 20+ years.
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.
It’s no surprise the Wine Advocate has called the Ventoux a “screaming bargain.” Carved off the left bank of the Rhone River, the 2020 Delas Ventoux is a gorgeous medium-bodied wine with wonderful crushed red fruits, a silky mouthfeel, tremendous structure and that signature Rhone spice on the finish. I haven’t had this wine available for a few vintages, but I figure it’s the perfect springtime Red to bring back in the fold!

“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
