"Classic Napa Valley on the nose, with red-to-black fruits, graphite, eucalyptus, and clay pot in a dusty presentation with youthful spices. The palate showcases incredible structure for its youth, with cherries, currant, and cedar leading into toffee and vanilla amidst medium acidity and fresh, grippy tannins. The finish is powerful, with red fruit umami sliced by vanilla bean and baking spice - the perfect Cab for the perfect steak."
Lot 474 | 2023 Green Valley of Russian River Valley Chardonnay
"A floral nose opens with a bit of mineral, followed by white blossoms, lemon oils, Asian pear, and whispers of pineapple. The entry is expressive, with additional citrus and white blossoms distributed over exceptionally balanced texture, tangible acidity, and an overall impeccable framework. A clean, resonant finish is uplifted with lime peel, shifting to delicate florals that beckon a second sip."
Lot 488 | 2023 Arroyo Seco Chardonnay
"A beautiful sunbeam of a pour invites you into a nose of golden apples, crème brûlée, wet stones, and delicate tropical tones haloed by fresh bread and foraged mushrooms. The entry is expertly balanced, with medium acidity and a brilliant structure accented by a chalky minerality and a creamy texture that feels just about weightless. The finish is clean, long, and kissed by white florals, apples, and flecks of vanilla. Delectable."
Lot 496 | 2022 Napa Valley Proprietary Red
"This proprietary red opens with an intense nose of dark red and black fruits, enveloped by a halo of blue fruit, blood orange, and a subtle dried herb complexity. The palate is a showcase of terroir expression – pyrazines are intertwined with dry, fresh tannins, leading to layers of stones, brambles, and uplifted spice. A whisper of tobacco leaf adds depth, while a long, enduring finish brings together notes of vanilla, dark berries, and a hint of leather. Simply class."
Lot 520 | 2022 Russian River Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
"Aromas of bramble, raspberry coulis, and plum abound on the nose, haloed by eucalyptus and herbs before making way for delicate crushed violets dancing underneath. Rich upon palate entry, a core of dark fruits is enlivened by vibrant black cherries, while new leather is interwoven with medium acidity and polished-yet-chewy tannins – the incredible structure of this wine can’t be overstated. The finish is both enduring and complex, where resonant red fruits merge seamlessly with crushed florals, granite minerality, and waves of toasty vanilla. A stunning wine tailored to elevate your steak dinners."
Lot 557 | 2024 Paso Robles Sauvignon Blanc"The nose bursts with a tropical exuberance, presenting wet stone and lime wrapped in layers of guava and passionfruit, with a subtle thread of chervil and slate. The palate entry is full-flavored for a Sauvignon Blanc, driven by grapefruit and additional tropical fruits with a kiss of ginger spice, all framed by a bracing acidity. The finish is mineral-laced and resolutely clean, tapering off with long, tropical umami accents with hints of apple blossom."
Lot 522 | 2023 Napa Valley Merlot
"An uplifted and floral nose bursts out of the glass with red and blue fruit, layered alongside dusty, earthy nuances of freshly picked bay leaves, cocoa powder, and crushed stones. On the palate, the wine reveals its structure and finesse from the first sip, with a remarkable elegance and exceptional acidity – a testament to 2023’s consistently cool growing season. Terroir-driven notes of focused cherries, capsicum, juniper berries, leather, and dried herbs lead to plentiful, persistent tannins. The finish kicks off with vanilla blossoms before transitioning to additional cherries, then concludes on a savory, complex note. Superb."
Lot 524 | 2023 Anderson Valley Gewürztraminer
"A deep and radiant golden hue beckons you into the glass, where expressive and vibrant aromas of lychee and white peach mingle with rose water and wet stones. On the palate, vivid tropical fruit flavors mesh with tangerines and lemon, crescendoing into a delicate, uplifted ginger spice framed by seamlessly balanced acidity and clean minerality. The refined finish is drier than it lets on, with subtle hints of white florals and lingering ginger riding a clean, medium-length finish. This bottle disappears very quickly."
Lot 485 | 2023 Monterey County Pinot Noir
"On the nose, aromas of rose petal, raspberry coulis, and mushrooms are accented by dried strawberries and forest floor. Upon entry, cherries and strawberry sauce intermingle with dried leaves, framed by balanced acidity and small, crushed tannins. A long, dynamic finale begins with a spiced wave, settling into red berries and a kiss of vanilla before rose hips and vanilla bean overtake the umami."
Lot 486 | 2023 Napa Valley Chardonnay
"On the nose, you’re greeted with a bouquet of lemon curd, yellow apple, honeysuckle, and fresh butter – quintessential aromas of a top-class Napa Valley Chardonnay. The palate entry is both round and concentrated, offering a luxurious blend of butter, citrus, and vanilla, all framed by medium+ acidity and a touch of baking spice. The finish is resonant and uplifted, showcasing classic vanilla and butter alongside lemon oil nuances, with an impressive length that reveals hints of fresh cream lingering on the palate."
Lot 539 | 2023 Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc
"Opening with an elegant nose of jasmine blossom, lemongrass, lemon oil, and subtle matcha layered over a core of slate-driven minerality, the palate showcases impressive texture and precision, with medium+ acidity and notes of citrus essence, saline, and delicate spice enhancing the wine’s mineral backbone. The finish is clean and cohesive, echoing with wet river stone, citrus umami, and gentle thread of ginger-like spice. A truly unique experience in every sip."
Lot 450 | 2022 Sonoma Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon
"The wine draws you into the glass through intense aromas of dark fruit and cassis, intermingled with hints of herbs. A deep, focused palate contains richness and depth from start to finish, showcasing medium-grained integrated tannins and a medium acidity that strikes a fine balance between fruit and oak, with fruit overtaking spice from the barrel influence by the slightest of margins on the finish. Not brooding or overly tannic, the taste of black fruits resonates long after the last sip."
