What's different about Vin Chicago? First of all, we're not about safe choices. We don’t care about hot sellers. We look for the special wines, the ones scoring highest in the wine press and the ones we discover on our own, that we can get for a great price. We taste—and rate for ourselves— virtually everything we put on our shelves. Why? Because we want you to love the wine you buy from us. And come back for more.
Argot "Borrowed Jewels" Sugarloaf Vineyard Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
Winery price is $125!

(1/31/2019) "More expensive and from a great hillside terroir of rock soils in the southern part of the valley, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Sugarloaf Vineyard offers a more rounded, supple, sexy style comparted to the more focused Starstruck releases. Plums, cassis, eucalyptus, incense, and cedar notes all emerge from this ripe, powerful sexy 2015 that shows the style of the vintage nicely. This fruit loaded effort is going to take 3-4 years to shed some baby fat but will drink beautifully for two decades. Drinking window: 2022 - 2042."

Herman Story Wines "Bolt Cutter" California Red 2015
93
Our Score
(12/2017) We really dig the big flavors of Herman Story wines and wish he made more Cabernet-based wines like this "Bolt Cutter" blend of 42% Cabernet, 32% Petit Verdot and 26% Syrah - sourced from some pretty famous vineyards, including Shadow Canyon and White Hawk. We could tell you all about the powerful mouthfeel and the super dense fruit flavors, but these notes from proprietor Russell P. From if more intriguing than anything we could ever write... "If Merle Haggard and Neil Young had ever released that metal record it would be playing on this train as it blew through the California deserts, carrying it's payload of blackberrycola sorbet on a quest for the coast: granite talus, smoked black cherry, flame kissed gingerbread village, crispy blueberry sage handpie, road tar, perfect powerchords and lightning struck oxen." We're not exactly sure what that means, but the wine is really freaking delicious. Drink now and over the next 4-5 years. For best results, decant an hour or two prior to serving.

Wine Advocate
(10/29/2018) "One-hundred percent Cabernet Sauvignon from 27-year-old vines, aged for 19 months in 100% new French oak, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon A. Price is very deep purple-black in color and features vibrant creme de cassis, warm plums, blueberry pie and dark chocolate notes with hints of menthol, rose hip tea, yeast extract and lavender. The palate is full-bodied with a taut line of super ripe, grainy tannins and wonderful freshness supporting the muscular fruit, finishing long and minerally. 125 cases produced. Drink 2021 - 2040."

Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(10/2016) "Togni's 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is quite dark and powerful, but also very much medium in body. Graphite, smoke, savory herbs, mint, leather and a core of inky dark red and purplish fruit infuse this deep, beautifully layered Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2014 is a wine built on energy and aromatics that won't hit its stride until at least age ten. Drinking window: 2024 - 2039."

Albert Bichot Domaine du Pavillon "Les Rugiens" 1er Cru Pommard 2015

Vinous, Neal Martin
(11/2018) "The 2015 Pommard Les Rugiens 1er Cru did not impress out of barrel, but it sure makes amends in bottle. It has a very fruit-forward, almost Volnay-like bouquet of plush red cherry and strawberry fruit, quite glossy and missing some Pommard character. The palate is well balanced with a sorbet-fresh entry, and quite minerally, with a lovely grainy texture. There is disarming purity toward the long finish, which is where the Pommard character almost belatedly shows through. Superb. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. Drinking Window: 2020 - 2036."

(1/2019) "The 2016 Pape Clement is fabulous. Racy and sumptuous in the glass, the 2016 captures the style that now characterizes Bernard Magrez's wines from his estate in Pessac. Specifically, the 2016 is wonderfully deep in the glass, and yet retains terrific freshness as well. A rush of dark cherry, plum, smoke, scorched earth, grilled herb, leather and menthol builds as the 2016 shows off its compelling, inviting personality. I would prefer to give the 2016 at least a few years in bottle to allow its full breadth of aromatics to develop. Even so, there is so much to like. Pliant, supple and super-expressive, Pape Clement is gorgeous in 2016. Tasted two times. Drink 2022 - 2036."

Kosta Browne Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2017
Winemaker's Notes
"Bright citrus rind with fresh cranberry, strawberry and a touch of baking spice. Broad, with a supportive acid structure which highlights the notes of raspberry, pomegranate and well-balanced oak."

Kosta Browne Santa Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2017
Winemaker's Notes
"Soft and elegant with aromas of lifted red fruits; rhubarb and sour cherry. Notes of lemon zest and creme fraiche. Compelling and bright with high energy. Structured, layered tannins backed with slight minerality. Thoughtful, layered oak undertone."
