Mauritson 2019 Rockpile Ridge Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
$69.99Sonoma County California
Wine Advocate 95 Rating
Blended with 13% Malbec, 10% Petit Verdot and 1% Merlot and displaying a deep ruby-purple color, the 2019 Rockpile Cabernet Sauvignon Rockpile Ridge Vineyard has broody tar and blackcurrants on the nose to begin, unfolding as it airs in the glass to wafts of lavender and menthol. The full-bodied palate is powerful and grainy, with bright acidity to balance its concentrated fruits, and it finishes long and spicy. R39-2 BX-12 -

Maxem 2021 Pinot Noir UV Vineyard
$89.99Sonoma Coast California
Wine Advocate 96 Rating
Far West in the Sonoma Coast, just a short drive to the Pacific Ocean, lies one of northern California’s best Pinot & Chard vineyard, named UV after it’s founder Ulysses Valdez. Maxem is a micro-producer, basically just a husband and wife making wine in their garage. But this is really, really good garage wine, and on the radar of cult wine collectors. Full bodied, ripe, fruit forward and smooth, great as an aperitivo or with food. BX-12 -
Mayacamas 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Mount Veeder
$189.99 – $930.00Napa Valley California
Jeb Dunnuck 96 Rating
Moving to the current releases, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is clearly on another level. Cassis, violets, spring flowers, and graphite, as well as a beautiful sense of minerality, all emerge on the nose, and it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, fine, polished tannins, fabulous balance, and a great finish.

Maynard’s 2016 Vintage Porto
$69.99 – $360.00Portugal
Wine Enthusiast 99 Rating
Editor's Choice Award
A beautifully balanced, rich wine, this has great tannins, a dense, firm texture and luscious blackberry fruits. It shows the structure of the vintage while also bringing a fresher element. Jammy but never cloying, this is an impressive wine for the long term. Drink from 2029.

Maynard’s 40 Years Old Aged Tawny Porto
$89.99 – $480.00Portugal
40 year old tawny is always lovely to drink, as the constituent wines have spent so long in oak barrels that the water content has partially evaporated, concentrating the flavors. This has developed a lovely intense palate with flavors of caramelized nuts and burnt orange rind. There is a high level of acidity which cuts through the richness. Absolutely delicious and good value for the style. regular $109.99

Merry Edwards 2015 Pinot Noir
$64.99Russian River Valley California
Wine Enthusiast 95 Rating
Made from grapes sourced from several sites across the appellation, this shows deft winemaking skill in its velvety, gritty texture and beautiful aromas and flavors of cured meat, rose petal and Asian five spice. Bright acidity lifts the tones of cranberry, rhubarb and mushroom earthiness, with a touch of crushed stone. R25-2 -
Merus 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon
$124.99Napa Valley California
Jeb Dunnuck 97 Rating
A killer bottle of Napa Valley magic, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon from Merus is 97% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Petit Verdot. It’s a powerful, full-bodied, uber-ripe beauty that stays lively and balanced, with beautiful blue fruits, as well as smoked tobacco, chocolate, and scored earth-like aromas and flavors. A beast of a wine with a great mid-palate and velvety tannins, it should shed its considerable baby fat over the coming 4-6 years and have two decades of overall longevity. R39-4
