Quintessa 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon
$269.99 – $1,350.00Napa Valley California
Decanter 96 Rating
Easily one of the most approachable Quintessa wines upon release, this vintage features the suave, plush tannins so characteristic of the estate, wrapped around charming red-fruited and purple floral notes, cedarwood spice, and graphite intensity. These elements frame the aromatics and palate expression, further nuanced by spearmint and mocha through the full-bodied finish. The fruit feels especially juicy and ripe, seemingly more so due to the ease with which the tannins glide across the palate. What a gift for collectors of this wine, which is often more tannic and reticent during even-keeled, picture-perfect growing seasons like 2021, 2016, and 2013. Since tasting it from barrel, the wine has softened significantly, and I now believe it may not age as long as initially anticipated. For the vintage, however, it’s a fantastic wine to enjoy now and regularly over the next 5 to 10 years. Harvested between 9 September and 1 October. A blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc, 1% Carménère, 1% Merlot, and 1% Petit Verdot. Aged 22 months in 60% new French oak and 1% in terracotta amphora.

Raats Original 2021 Unwooded Chenin Blanc
$15.99 – $156.00Coastal Region South Africa
Wine & Spirits Magazine 89 Rating
This is lean chenin, despite its sweet, poached-pear weight. Strong acidity keeps it away from outright sweetness. For $15, this is a beefy wine, ready for Nantucket bay scallops in a piquant chimichurri.

Racines 2021 Pinot Noir Santa Rita Hills Cuvee
$44.99 – $240.00Santa Barbara County California
Wine Spectator 94 Rating
Shows nicely coiled energy, with a core of black cherry, mulberry and plum fruit allied to racy acidity, which carries through on the iris- and anise-tinged finish. A subtle, smoldering earth accent hangs in the background, leaving a flinty echo. Drink now through 2033. 1,165 cases made. SP4-6

Raen 2021 Royal St. Robert Cuvee Pinot Noir
$79.99Sonoma Coast California
James Suckling 98 Rating
Extremely spicy with iron, forest flower, black tea, and dried strawberry aromas, following through to a medium to full body, with lovely velvety tannins that are integrated and refined, with a long and flavorful finish. Yet it always remains refined and poised in an exemplary way. R15-2 -
Raen 2023 Royal St. Robert Cuvee Pinot Noir
$79.99 – $420.00Sonoma Coast California
James Suckling 99 Rating
Extremely Limited
An amazingly complex, dynamic wine that demands your attention from the first sniff to the lingering finish. Aromas of redwood forest, rosemary, purple flowers and black cherries, then black tea, pomegranate, dark cherry, dried raspberry and wild mushroom flavors. Fine-grained moderate tannins and crunchy acidity give it such a firm backbone. Drink now or hold. SP5-6

Wine Enthusiast 99 Rating
Only the third vintage by this producer from this spectacular site, this elegant wine is brimming in tension and length. Delicate layers of Meyer lemon, Gravenstein apple and pear show an abundance on the palate, seasoned in salty oak, nutmeg and a hint of cardamom. *Editors’ Choice* SPR1-9 -
