Quintessa - Rutherford Napa Valley 2021

"100/100 from Wine Enthusiast and 99/100 from James Suckling: Napa Valley biodynamics at the top of its game!"

Aromas of lavender, dried herbs and grapefruit pith combine with firm fruit and cocoa flavors on a structure of abundant, powder-fine tannins and a mouthwatering finish. This wine is refined, detailed and delicious, with as much elegance as energy.

Domaine des Chirats - Rockpile Vineyard Syrah 2018

"Discover a Rhodanian Syrah straight from California, a sublime collaboration by Yves Cuilleron & Jeff Cohn!"

"A collaboration between Jeff Cohn and Yves Cuilleron, the 2018 Syrah Domaine des Chirats is another dense, rich and very intense Syrah from the range that shows incredible complexity in its bright blueberries and cherries as well as notes of violets, white pepper, sandalwood and bouquet garni-like aromas and flavors. This full-bodied, tannic and powerful wine develops smoky bacon fat aromas, similar to those of Côte Rôtie, as well as an increasingly pronounced structure as it rests in the glass. Do your best to hide the bottles for 3-4 years, and it should have an overall longevity of two decades." (Jeb Dunnuck 2021)
