2023 Fingers Crossed Brain Teaser Chardonnay | Oak View, Ventura County California 750ml
75% Chardonnay 19% Roussanne 6% Marsanne
..the 2023 Chardonnay Brain Teaser has a lighter gold hue, followed by a rocking nose of candied lemon zest, minty herbs, flowers, and subtle blanched almond nuances. With medium to full-bodied richness, a layered, rich, yet elegant mouthfeel, and juicy, lip-smacking finish, this beauty is going to shine right out of the gate yet also have a solid decade or more of longevity. | 95-97 Jeb Dunnuck

Introducing the most exclusive release we’ve ever not planned: Screaming Eagle… in a can.

Because sometimes you want a $3,000 Napa cult Cabernet… but also want to shotgun it at a backyard BBQ.

Crafted with the same obsessive precision, this limited-edition 12oz format delivers notes of blackcurrant, graphite, and mild existential confusion. Best enjoyed ice cold, straight from the cooler, preferably next to a rack of ribs and someone who “only drinks beer.”

Only 6 cans produced. All already allocated. Secondary market opens at $25,000 per 4-pack.

Happy April 1st. 🍷

World famous photographer Andy Katz is "changing the way the world sees wine" through his lens while his son, Jesse Katz is "changing the way the world drinks" with his inspired and accomplished winemaking talent. Together they present a polished and approachable Cabernet aged in French Oak and bottled unfined and unfiltered. The black fruit influence on the palate is welcoming and expands in complexity with dark chocolate & espresso. Given a good decant, the potential reaches further and pleasant hints of cedar and juniper lay out in an open-work fashion across the finish. | Falling Bright

2021 Devil Proof Cima Ladera Malbec-Cabernet Sauvignon | Farrow Ranch, Alexander Valley Sonoma County California 750ml
65% Malbec 35% Cabernet Sauvignon

Meaning 'top of the hillside' in Spanish, the Inky purple-colored 2021 Cima Ladera Farrow Ranch is mostly Malbec with the addition of 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and sees 90% new French oak. The first vintage they made of this wine, the Cabernet really pops through in its profile, with a nose of fresh plums, redcurrants, lavender, and a mineral lift of pencil lead jumping from the glass. Full-bodied, it has a mountainous feel to its structure, with plenty of ripe tannins and a balanced, even freshness underneath. This is a great addition to the range that's going to appeal to lovers of great Cabernet Sauvignon. | 99, Audrey Frick

2024 Rivers-Marie Platt Vineyard Pinot Noir
We've been on a good run here since 2017, seeing our little Calera clone block blossom into one of the strongest wines we produce every year. Production here is always small making allocating this bottling incredibly difficult. The wines feel like a much fuller, more mature version of Bodega Thieriot given current vine age difference. Texture is what sets this wine apart from everything else in the lineup.

2023 Sire Mons Imperatoris
The 2023 Sire Estate Wines Mons Imperatoris is a bold, polished Napa Cabernet that leans into richness while still keeping things structured and focused. It opens with deep aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and dark plum, layered with espresso, graphite, and a touch of sweet oak. On the palate, it’s full-bodied with firm, youthful tannins and a slightly restrained core of dark fruit, giving way to notes of cocoa, cedar, and subtle savory herbs as it opens up. There’s a nice balance between power and freshness here, and while it’s already impressive, this one feels built for the cellar—give it time and it should evolve into something really special over the next decade or two.
