  • Venge Vineyards 2022 Silencieux Cabernet Sauvignon

    $49.99 – $270.00

    Napa Valley California
    Enjoyabilityfactor 95 Rating
    Wonderfully aromatic and expressive, the 2022 vintage opens with scents of sweet cassis, anise, blackberries, roasted coffee, blue herbs and barrel vanillin. On the palate, the tannins are firm, upfront and balanced throughout, with all pockets of the mouth left yearning for another sip. Full-bodied and extracted with ripe black fruit, blueberries, charred caramel and a delightful hint of fresh herbs that concentrate into a lengthy finish. This wine is approachable upon release and cellar worthy in proper aging conditions. regular $69.99

  • Verite 2012 Le Desir

    $399.99

    Sonoma County California
    Wine Advocate 100 Rating

    The 2012 Le Desir (64% Cabernet Franc, 24% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Malbec) reminds me of a young vintage of Ausone, such as 2005. The wine has amazing minerality and an explosive blueberry nose intermixed with blackberries, new saddle leather, charcoal and camphor. It is full-bodied, with espresso notes emerging on the palate. There are 1,900 cases of this super-endowed, prodigious wine that should drink well for 35-40 years. How fun it would be for mega-millionaires to put this in a blind tasting of a great vintage of Ausone in 10, 20 or 30 years from now. Drink: 2015-2055. SP22-1

  • Verite 2017 La Joie

    $399.99

    Sonoma County California

    Tasting like a great bottle of Château Lafite, the 2017 La Joie is based largely on Cabernet Sauvignon and brought up, I suspect, in mostly new French oak. Deep ruby/purple, with a heavenly bouquet of crème de cassis, lead pencil, cedarwood, graphite, and tobacco, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, an incredible sense of elegance and purity, building tannins, and a great, great finish. This majestic, regal Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon is going to require a decade of cellaring to hit maturity (although it’s far from unapproachable today) and will see its 50th birthday in fine form. I followed this bottle for three days and it never showed a hint of oxidation. This is easily my wine of the vintage in 2017. R20-1

  • Vermillion by Keplinger 2022 Red Blend

    $29.99 – $300.00

    California
    The Vermillion Red shows pure blackberry, raspberry, and huckleberry and a finish laced with dried savory herbs, oolong tea, and rosemary. Incredibly generous on the palate, the wine has staying power without being overdone whatsoever. Well integrated oak here, which is impressive given the 16 months of elevage. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.

  • Veuve Fourny & Fils Blanc de Blancs Extra-Brut Premier Cru NV

    $59.99 – $636.00

    Champagne France
    Without doubt, one of the best grower Champagnes on the market today. While this compares very favorably with the bigger houses, what you get is something worth so much more. Of all the grower Champanges we sell, this is without doubt the most popular and for one reason, it’s just so darn nice. Like most non-vintage Champagnes, this embodies the house style at Veuve Fourny impeccably well with elegant aromatics, a highly refined texture and a combination of orchard fruit and minerals that embraces Champagne’s more elegant side.

  • Veuve Fourny Brut Rose 1er Cru

    $59.99 – $600.00

    Champagne France
    Antonio Galloni 91 Rating
    The NV Brut Rosé is another enticing wine in this range. Rich and creamy, the Rosé delivers the goods. All the elements are so well balanced. Hints of cranberry, mint, white pepper and dried herbs build nicely in the glass, framed by bright saline accents that lend crystalline precision and cut throughout.

  • VHR Vine Hill Ranch 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon

    $349.99

    Oakville Napa Valley California

    Sporting a saturated purple color, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon VHR is a total blockbuster that spent 21 months in French oak. It knocks it out of the park with its Pauillac-like bouquet of blackcurrants, tobacco leaf, damp earth, lead pencil shavings, and cedarwood. Hitting the palate with a massive texture and full body, it’s a powerful, full throttle effort that has remarkable balance, ripe tannins, and an opulent, sexy texture that’s a joy to drink. Despite its flamboyant style, it’s perfectly balanced and is a sensational wine. Feel free to drink it any time over the coming 20-25 years. Bravo! SPBX-3

  • Vietti 2019 Castiglione Barolo

    $69.99 – $348.00

    Piedmont Italy
    Wine Advocate 95 Rating
    This is the most accessible Barolo from Vietti and the wine that casts the biggest net in terms of fruit sourcing from across many MGA sites. The 2019 Barolo Castiglione is a layered and generous wine that reflects the main takeaways offered by this very successful vintage. In fact, because this wine is not from a single site, it speaks more to the quality of the vintage than it does to any one specific vineyard. The Castiglione reveals generous richness and concentrated cherry fruit with dark saturation and good structure that comes from the thicker skins developed on Nebbiolo grapes this year. It concludes with a salty mineral note that adds focus and elegance. R18-4
