Xavier Vignon’s latest release is a Parker 91 point Châteauneuf-styled blend that comes from 80-100 year old vines found at some of the highest elevations in the village of Cairanne. These ancient vines are rooted in mineral white clay and produce wine with incredible aromatic complexity and depth of fruit It’s a killer bottle of wine, loaded with black fruit, touched with baking spices, rosemary and thyme. It’s a massive wine but mineral and fresh. Think great Châteauneuf, at a third of the price. For the restaurant, it’s the perfect wine by the glass, open bottles last for days, just getting more complex and finer as we go on.
It’s a Saturday night wine at a Tuesday night price, in the words of Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, a “no-brainer..”

“Flowering garrigue notes bring a lovely touch to the full- bodied 2016 Cairanne. This is plush and creamy in texture, rich and warm, with a supple finish that suggests early drin- king. Don’t be tempted to hold it past another few years.” 91 points Robert Parker’s WINE ADVOCATE

“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

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!

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.
