Domaine Danielle Laurent vineyard is Laurent Montalieu’s home vineyard at Solena Estate. It’s a special, special vineyard that runs on a severe slope and shares the same hill as Shea Vineyard. But unlike the Shea Pinot which required a favor from Anne to secure, Laurent is Anne’s boss – so securing a few choice plots to further her Single-Vineyard Trousse Chemise project was “no big deal”. But, in fact it really was.
No doubt Anne’s tireless dedication to Hyland and Solena over the past decade plus earned her a chance to make a single-vineyard off this special sentimary soiled vineyard along Y-C’s rolling hills. But she’s the first one to do it!
Founded in 2000 by Laurent Montalieu and Danielle Andrus (Gary’s daughter), the 80-acre vineyard has long been a particularly sweet spot on winemakers’ radars. But for the past twenty years, Danielle and Laurent have turned down dozens of requests for fruit off the vineyard, opting instead to use it for their perennial Wine Spectator Top 100 feature, Solena Estate’s Grand Cuvee as well as the crown jewel of the Solena lineup, the DDL Vineyard Pinot.

With seemingly infinite access to some of the absolute very best vineyards in the most choice AVAs in the valley, the Wagner’s set out to make Quilt– a Cabernet blend from a patchwork of the top sites in Napa (Oakville, St Helena, Atlas Peak, Coombsville, Calistoga, and Howell Mountain.) The brand new 2021 edition is a beauty – deeply concentrated, rich and a truly show stopping Cabernet. It’s a dark, hedonistic blend that combines elegance with power and pairs the two together effortlessly.

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 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.
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!
