Stirm Zinfandel Wirz Vineyard Zinfandel Cienega Valley Old Vines 2022
Special Price $14.98 Regular Price $35.00QuickviewThe old Wirz Vineyard was originally planted around 1900 to “mixed blacks” as Pat Wirz, the longtime farmer/owner likes to call them. The mix is the typical field blend of vineyards in the Diablo range that consist of Mataro, Carignan, Zinfandel, and the oddball Cabernet Pfeffer. However, in 1964, about 45 acres of white Riesling were planted. The San Andreas Fault runs through the vineyard, which sits at the base of the Eastern flank of the Gabilan Mountains. There are several different soil types found here. The Riesling is mostly planted on deep granitic sand, and some is on the darker clay loam that’s weathered from limestone. Dry farmed, own rooted, head trained, and organic.

La Cienega Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley Helle’s Harvest 2018
Special Price $24.98 Regular Price $52.00QuickviewTucked into the southeastern hills of Alexander Valley on Chalk Hill Road, La Cienega Vineyard sits a quarter-mile of forest away from Vérité, one of California's most decorated wineries with nearly 20 perfect 100-point scores. Volcanic clay soils, 400 feet of elevation, and cool nights produce Cabernet of serious depth and refinement. For nearly two decades the Siegert family quietly sold their hand-harvested grapes to top Napa and Sonoma producers before launching their own estate label. Helle's Harvest 2018, aged 18 months in barrel, hit the market right as COVID shut everything down. Their loss, your gain. Classic Alexander Valley Cab with Bordeaux-meets-California swagger, fruit-forward, refined, with sneaky power and years ahead of it. Originally $52 at the winery. Yours today for $24.98. While it lasts.

The flavors are rich, bold and ample, and yet the 2018 retains so much nuance and vibrancy. Inky red/purplish fruit, lavender, graphite and spice build into the huge, resonant finish. What a wine. The 2018 was done with 6% whole clusters and was aged in a combination of one and two-year-old barrels. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous
96 Points! More mulberry, candied violets, orange blossom, and incense notes emerge from the 2018 Pinot Noir Mount Carmel Vineyard, a rich, concentrated, incredibly impressive effort from Matt Dees. Medium to full-bodied, and balanced, with ample tannins and acidity, it's certainly brilliant now, given its purity and elegance, yet a solid 3-4 years of bottle age will put it in its sweet spot. - Jeb Dunnuck

Bodega Rancho Grenache Jemrose Vineyard Bennett Valley 2019
Special Price $14.98 Regular Price $65.00QuickviewJemrose Vineyard lies among rolling hills in the Southeast corner of Sonoma County. Here, a patchwork of open grassland and groves of Coast Live Oak give way to carefully manicured vineyard rows. Warm Summer days draw evening fog up from San Pablo Bay in the South. This coastal influence has a moderating effect on daytime temperatures and ensures an extended growing season. This gentle ripening adds soft character and complexity.
Harvested the 2019 vintage on October 16. Two separate vineyard blocks yielded an almost-even split of Alban and Tablas clones, after which underwent an extended, cool co-fermentation. Bright cherry earth tones, and clove are the focus on the palate, giving way to lush fruit with moderate acidity and soft tannins on the finish.

Pharoahmoans Napa Valley Red Wine 2023
$95.00 $95.00QuickviewJS94VM94RP9494 Points! The 2023 Red Wine is a fabulous Grenache/Syrah blend. Red-toned fruit, blood orange, dried herbs, lavender and mocha are all beautifully dialed up. Floral overtones add striking finesse and lift. What a gorgeous and vivid wine this is. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous
94 Points! The 2023 PharoahMoans Red Wine is a 50-50 blend of Carneros Grenache and Pope Valley Syrah, but despite omitting Mouvèdre, it is the best vintage of this wine this taster has sampled. Pretty florals—violets and roses—join tea-like, potpourri-ish nuances and berry fruit in this medium- to full-bodied wine. Lively, fresh and complex, the palate is framed by silky tannins and displays ample length on the finish. It's a super value, as long as you're not hung up on Bordeaux varieties or fancy mid-valley AVAs. - Joe Czerwinski, RobertParker.com
94 Points! This Rhone-style blend is unusual in Napa Valley and gives dark, earthy, savory flavors on a firm texture. Full-bodied, moderately tannic and restrained in fruit flavors, instead emphasizing singed herb, oak smoke, star anise and espresso flavors. A 50-50 blend of grenache and syrah grapes. Drink now or hold. - Jim Gordon, JamesSuckling.Com

Special Price $16.98 Regular Price $50.00QuickviewVM9393 Points!

This is soft textured with chalky minerals and crisp red fruits that give way to dusty tannins. The acidity wins the day, adding a vibrancy yet also spiciness that tugs at the cheeks as the 2020 finishes with admirable length and full of tension. - Eric Guido, Vinous
