I’ve said it a million times, finding great California Cabernet for under $30 a bottle is akin to foraging for chanterelles. But finding an under- $20/btl on cases BEFORE the promo, well that’s like foraging for white truffles. Either way, once you stumble upon a good source, you tell absolutely nobody, and return to the spot as often as you can until it dries up.
I guess you can’t really call it an unknown discovery anymore now that Hope Family Wines sits in the Top 10 of Wine Enthusiast’s Top 100 Wines of the Year for 2019. But we have been working on getting our first offer from this winery well before that hit the press.
The 2017 Treana Cabernet Sauvignon from the Hope Family is the definition of a crowd pleaser. I guess that’s why so many buyers have requested I get it in again. It’s got all the big, bold juicy fruit you could possibly want wrapped tight around well-structured tannin – that will also allow this one to continue to age gracefully for a decade.

Aromas of black cherry, caramel sauce, dried herbs and crushed rocks lead into a palate shaped by strong yet relenting tannins. Flavors of oak and more dark cherry ride a silky mouthfeel.

Deep shimmering ruby. A highly perfumed bouquet evokes ripe red and dark berries, pipe tobacco and baking spices. Fleshy and appealingly sweet cherry, black currant and floral pastille flavors become more lively as the wine stretches out. Plays richness off finesse and finishes very long and appealingly sweet, with subtle tannins coming in late.
This is the Tuesday Nighter California Cab we’ve been waiting for!

It’s always nice to be in good standing with one of the most beloved wine brands in America! These won’t last long! This is an opulent, powerful dark-fruited Cabernet with tightly woven tannins, that is just raring and ready to go. Textbook, full-bodied, revved up and ready to go, this new Caymus Napa Valley Cabernet is the definition of a crowd pleaser.

“The 2021 Malbec Reserva, from Vistalba, Lujan de Cuyo, was 60% aged in barrels for 12 months. Purple in color. The nose presents notes of fresh plum and violets, white pepper, strawberry, hints of spice and aromas from the aging process. It’s initially indulgent in the mouth, with good fat, and volume and a velvety texture. The flavors are bold and full-bodied. This 2021 overdelivers at the price.” -Vinous

Always the one with the most personality of the bunch, this is what Wine Enthusiast had to say about the 2021 release: “This extremely ripe and bold style of Pinot Noir will please those seeking such lushness. Dark in the glass, it begins with black cherry, toasty caramel and cola milk shake aromas.” The cool, coastal days and abundance of sunshine lines up perfectly for a wine that has a good natural acidic backbone, with bold fruit-forward flavors. In an easy 2021 vintage, Joe Wagner had a field day with this single-vineyard beauty.
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.
