Winemaker Notes The 2018 Tenuta San Guido Le Difese Toscana is distinguished by a good structure and is extremely supple, making it very pleasant and easy to drink. Blend: 70 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 30 % Sangiovese Critical Acclaim James Suckling A medium-bodied red with plum and cherry character. Walnut and bark undertones. It’s creamy and savory at the finish. Drink now. Wine Enthusiast Aromas of star anise, dark-skinned berry, wild herb and toasted oak form the nose. A blend of 70% Cabernet and 30% Sangiovese, the wine’s bright, linear palate offers red currant, prune and a hint of licorice before a coffee-bean finish. Racy acidity and taut close-grained tannins provide the framework and tension.

Deep ruby color with a purple hue. Notes of black fruit, bay leaf and sage mingle with iodine and oyster shell characteristics, creating an extremely complex and pleasant bouquet. Wonderful now, but can age for another two decades.

Tasting: Comments Pascal CHATONNET December 2018: L'Archange 2016 has an intense and deep colour. The first nose is characteristic of the expression of the great Merlot on clay soil with a simply perfect summer: blackberry liqueur, liquorice and black pepper rise together. The palate attacks with a powerful but extremely velvety tannin; it develops like a real liqueur, without heaviness but with a lot of freshness. The finish is powerful and very long. Vanilla and black fruit compote linger in the mouth on a particularly persistent spicy finish. A great wine, definitely made for laying down but already extremely fine; ARCHANGE 2016 is simply fantastic.

45% Merlot 37% Cabernet Sauvignon 18% Cabernet Franc Very complex aroma - black ripe cherries, tobacco leaves and cedar wood. The taste is medium long, full with hints of chocolate and dark fruit. The tannin is firm, pleasant. --Libor Finger "Some stewed berries with walnut and light sultana undertones. Chocolate, too. It’s full-bodied with a nice core of fruit and a medium finish. Soft tannins. Try after 2023." (89 pts.) --JamesSuckling.com

The Mascot shares the hallmarks of Napa Valley’s most elite wines, such as meticulous farming, high-profile winemaking, and pedigreed grapes, offering an introduction to Napa’s most distinguished Cabernet Sauvignons. Emerging from distinct hillside vineyards, specifically from the comparatively younger vines of BOND, Harlan Estate, and Promontory, The Mascot lucidly reveals its unrivaled pedigree with each swirl of the glass while offering insight into the vintage and evolution of its parent properties. While the winery doesn’t specify exact grape varietal percentages in each vintage, The Mascot has historically been 85-95% Cabernet Sauvignon, followed by Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Petite Verdot. Crafted in an intensely captivating style that’s gloriously supple, penetrating, and harmoniously balanced, only a few very select retailers have the opportunity to offer this wine, and we are delighted to be one of them!

As Chuck Wagner explains, his new Bonanza Cabernet isn’t Caymus, but rather an expression of the sort of other superb California vineyards he never tires of exploring, the sort that are capable of “producing Cabernet Sauvignon that’s less expensive but a wine of its own riches.”"One thing is important to me – Bonanza calls back to a previous era when a glass of good wine with dinner was a simple pleasure. Bonanza aims to be a smart and gratifying choice, speaking to the enjoyment of everyday life. You may agree that our biggest fortune is good company, great food and delicious wine."

Winemaker Notes The nose of the 2014 Te Wahi Pinot Noir leads with red and black cherries, black plum and rich Christmas cake spices. As the wine unfolds, smoky flint and floral flavors appear. Complex, earthy and structure, this wine is the definition of a new Pinot Noir place. The wine is youthful on the palate with sweet fruit framed by bright acidity. The texture is supple with a velvety, yet firm tannin structure. The finish is long, focused and complex. Great pairings for Te Wahi include wild game and duck, venison and wagyu beef. Critical Acclaim Wilfred Wong of Wine.com An impressive effort, the deeply colored 2014 Cloudy Bay Te Wahi Pinot Noir shows power with excellent restraint. While the wine shows loads of black fruits and chewy earth, it stays just this side of going over the top. Youthful now, the wine is just beginning to show itself.
