(8/16/2019) "The 2017 Chateauneuf Du Pape Cuvee Vieilles Vignes is another killer effort from this estate. Coming from the La Janasse and La Crau lieux-dits and brought up in foudre, its deep purple color is followed by blockbuster notes of creme de cassis, blackberries, chocolate, graphite, and earthy, rocky, mineral-like nuances. It's deep and full-bodied, with a ripe, powerful yet balanced style and a great finish. A classic example of this cuvee. it's going to benefit from short-term cellaring and keep for two decades or more. Maturity: 2023 - 2043"

Quinta do Vesuvio Vintage Port 2017
95
James Suckling
97-99
Wine Advocate
(7/11/2019) "The 2017 Vintage Port is a blend of 33% Touriga Nacional, 35% Touriga Franca, 15% Sousao and 12% Alicante Bouschet, plus miscellaneous others filling out the blend. This was bottled about a month before tasting after 18 months in seasoned vats, but the just-bottled sample was not really ready. This was instead a pre-bottling sample. It comes in with 115 grams of residual sugar. Very fresh, it also has luscious fruit, vivid fruit flavor and big power underneath. It coats the palate and is one of the fleshiest of the wines in the Symington stable this issue, but its best feature is the delightfully juicy finish. It's delicious, long and kind of spectacular. Tight, it also demonstrated the ability to expand in the glass. Then, it showed off the pure power. The combination of lots of fruit, lots of power and endless flavor to go with the endless finish mean that this is a rather stunning follow-up to recent vintages. It is going to need some time. I did (again) like the Capela, its sibling this issue, better-I tend to lean toward structure more than fruitiness-but at half the price, I and other bargain hunters might be content here. Stylistically, this certainly has plenty of virtues of its own, and it will likely be accessible a bit earlier. Drink Date: 2030 - 2075"

Vinous, Neal Martin
(6/2018) "The 2016 Cockburn's, which comes mainly from the Bico de Pato vineyard, is deep in colour, perhaps more so than other vintages of this Port encountered during previous declaration tastings. The nose is tight at first, almost Bordeaux-like with blackberry, raspberry coulis, touches of inkwell and cassis. There is admirable purity here. The palate is beautifully balanced with supple tannin, a wonderful line of acidity and immense harmony. There is presence but not weight, a silky smooth finish with hints of raisin and fig that linger tenderly in the mouth. What a marvellous Cockburn's! Production is 2,450 cases. (Drink between 2023-2050)"

Amici "Reserve" Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
96
Jeb Dunnuck
(1/31/2019) "The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve comes mostly from the George III and Missouri Hopper Vineyard and is a cellar selection. It's another deep, rich, powerful wine from this estate that has lots of gravelly minerality and dark chocolate notes as well as terrific cassis and blackberry fruits. About as classic as they come, it's a smoking value and certainly competes with the single vineyards, which are more than twice the price. Want a great Napa Cabernet Sauvignon for under 100 dollars? Buy this. Maturity: 2019 - 2039."

Chateau Saint Cosme Condrieu 2016

Jeb Dunnuck
(9/26/2018) "The 2016 Condrieu is straight-up brilliant stuff, the finest Condrieu I've tasted from Luis Barruol. Awesome notes of orange blossom, white flowers, citrus oil, and crushed rocks all flow to a deep, rich, textured effort that has fabulous purity and precision. It's a great example of Viognier from these steep, granite soils and is well worth seeking out. Maturity: 2018 - 2024."

Favia "Quarzo" Amador County Syrah 2015
An ethereal red from husband and wife superstars, winemaker Andy Erickson and viticulturalist Annie Favia.
95
Wine Advocate
(12/13/2018) "Deep garnet purple colored, the 2015 Quarzo Syrah (100% Syrah) has quite an earthy, savory nose of smoked meats, fungi, black pepper and chargrill with a core of warm black plums, blackberry compote and licorice plus a touch of charcoal. Full-bodied and firm, with beautifully rounded tannins, it has a wonderfully generous core and loads of layers, finishing long and spicy. Serious stuff! 289 cases produced. Drink Date 2018 - 2034."

Chateau La Clotte St. Emilion 2015
From the owners of Chateau Ausone!
95+
Wine Advocate
(2/21/2018) "This was the first vintage for the Vauthier family of Chateau Ausone off this tiny three-hectare estate. Composed of 80% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 85% new, the 2015 La Clotte displays a medium to deep garnet-purple color and a very spicy nose of cinnamon stick, cloves, star anise and allspice over core of red and black currants, mulberries and black soil plus a waft of violets. Full-bodied and decadently fruited with a firm backbone of very ripe, beautifully velvety tannins, it has a lively backbone providing loads of lift throughout the very long finish. Drink Date 2022 - 2044."

Dominus "Napanook" Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

James Suckling

Wine Advocate
(10/29/2018) "Very deep purple-black in color, the 2016 Napanook Proprietary Red Wine is composed of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot and 7% Cabernet Franc aged in 20% new oak. A beautiful perfume of violets, aniseed, truffles and lavender is just starting to emerge over a core of warm cassis, blackberry preserves and ripe plum plus hints of cedar chest, chocolate box, rare beef and cardamom. The palate is medium to full-bodied and firmly textured with very ripe tannins, gradually revealing layers of black and blue fruits plus loads of earthy sparks, finishing with amazing freshness and depth. 3,500 cases produced. Drink Date 2019 - 2033."

Andrew Will "Sorella" Horse Heaven Hills Cabernet Blend 2014
97
Wine Advocate
(6/30/2017) "The deep inky colored 2014 Sorella checks in as a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated blend that includes 11% each of Merlot and Cabernet Franc, with tiny amounts of Petit Verdot and Malbec. Cassis, smoked earth, graphite and chocolate all emerge from this rich, full-bodied, concentrated, gorgeously layered beauty that has sweet tannin, beautiful purity and a great finish. This is a sensational wine, and it's going to be interesting to see how this stacks up with the 2007 and 2012 at maturity. 612 cases. Drinking Date: 2018 - 2034."

Brewer-Clifton "Hapgood" Sta Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2014
96
Wine Advocate
(8/20/2016) "A complex, layered 2014 that doesn't skimp on texture, the 2014 Pinot Noir Hapgood has loads of black cherry, dried herbs, sandy soil, licorice and spice box to go with a full-bodied, supple, layered, yet still focused and lively style on the palate. Another rich, textured, yet balanced Pinot Noir from this team, it has solid tannic structure and will cruise for at least a decade in the cellar."
