About the Wine

NV Guy de Chassey "Cuvee de Buretel Grand Cru"

The Guy de Chassey estate is nestled at the foot of the Montagne de Reims in the village of Louvois, which is one of only 17 villages in France’s Champagne appellation to hold 100% Grand Cru status. It farms all of its grapes in Louvois and the neighboring Bouzy and Tauxieres Mutry.

Today, Champagne Guy de Chassey is overseen by Marie-Odile de Chassey, whose daughter Ingrid expertly monitors the vinification, carrying out most of the vineyard work by hand and producing just enough grapes to craft just 4,000 cases of wine each year.

The “Cuvee de Buretel” is a multi-vintage cuvee of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, which Ingrid blends to a house style that is light yellow in hue, shows off a fine, nose-tickling mousse, and exhibits a rich, creamy texture — a delicious special-occasion Champagne. — Information provided by Vinesse

About the Wine

Solomon Hills 2014 Pinot Noir
Crafted from the esteemed Solomon Hills vineyard, the western-most site in the Santa Maria Valley, this 2014 Pinot Noir packs great energy and tremendous depth of flavors. On the nose, vibrant aromatics of fennel, cinnamon and blue fruits dominate, while hints of toasted oak, rhubarb, cranberry and roasted plum come through as the wine opens up. These notes carry though on the palate, with the addition of spicy fruit flavors and nuances of bay leaf, dried sage and roasted meat. Well-integrated acidity balances out these masculine flavors that linger on the long finish.

Chesterfield 2017 Pinot Noir
 Five different vineyards make this wine a complex Pinot Noir with plenty of subtle nuances. All five lots were made with classic Burgundy practices of whole cluster fermentation, gentle press to barrel and extreme diligence to limit oxygen exposure during the entire wine making process. These traditional wine making practices allow this Pinot Noir to age extremely well for many years to come. Since it is a wine that is meant to age well, if you open a bottle soon, it will definitely benefit with some gentle decanting or enjoyed from large Pinot Noir glasses to take up some oxygen to bring out the amazing notes for which Sta. Rita Hills is famous. This beautiful Pinot Noir has deep red hues. Elegant, yet rich fruit with notes of pink roses, spice box and red cherries. The palate is crisp and bright, giving off flavors of Bing cherry, subtle oak and vanilla with a very faint hint of mushroom and forest floor.

Per Caso's most unique blend, the Iberian, is produced exclusively from traditional Portuguese varieties and pays homage to the fine wines made in Portugal's Douro wine region. The 2012 Iberian Blend combines 63% Touriga Nacional, 29% Tinta Cao, and 8% Souzao from the esteemed Adelaida District in Paso Robles.

It's velvety mouthfeel and soft tannins linger on the complex finish. Aged 36 months in oak, plus 12 months in bottle. Enjoy!

Kiara Bella 2018 Sauvignon Blanc
Bright, crisp, and tropical, the award-winning Kiara Bella 2018 Sauvignon Blanc is as playful as it is timeless. On the nose, fresh aromas of pineapple and banana cream pie melt away to reveal fragrant notes of apricot and the juicy flesh of white peaches. Tangerine and Meyer lemon flavors delight the senses on the crisp and refreshing palate and lead into a clean finish. This Sauvignon Blanc's vibrant, upbeat complexity makes it an intriguing companion to a number of dishes.

Samuel Louis Smith 2018 Pinot Noir Montanita de Oro
A 50/50 blend of two of the most pristine mountain sites of Monterey County, the Pelio and Coastview vineyards, the Samuel Louis Smith 2018 'MontaNita de Oro' Pinot Noir presents a perfect combination of feminine lift and masculine structure. Medium garnet in color, this Pinot Noir opens with aromas of wild strawberry, dried herbs and flowers and pink peppercorn, followed by flavors of tart cherry and cinnamon on the palate that lead into a long finish dusted lightly in baking spice. Enjoy!

Cavaletti 2016 Grenache The 109 Mile
The Cavaletti 2016 'The 109 Mile' Grenache comes from the Swayze Vineyard, a warm climate, high desert site, located at 3,000 feet elevation in the northern edge of Los Angeles County - and exactly 109 miles from the winery. Adjacent to the Los Padres National Forest and nestled in the shadow of the Sierra Pelona Mountains, this under the-radar vineyard produces some spectacular Grenache. Light garnet in color, this wine offers a complex nose and full-bodied palate with layers of raspberry and cherry, followed by hints of baking spices and an intriguingly long finish.

Ryan Cochran 2015 Pinot Noir
The Ryan Cochrane 2015 Pinot Noir comes from the Solomon Hills Vineyard, the western-most vineyard in the Santa Maria Valley appellation. Garnet in color, this Pinot has lovely aromas of strawberry, red cherry, bark, anise and oak spice, along with prevalent bay leaf, green peppercorn and pine resin. Those elements converge on the sip to make a cranberry, spicy herb and eucalyptus nut tea, which is tangy and complex. Elegant, with lacy tannins, this wine persists with staying power on the cherry-fueled finish.

Derby 2016 Pinot Gris
Derby's 2016 Pinot Gris comes from the extremely coastal, ocean-view vineyard, Derbyshire, located in San Simeon. Aromas of Ruby Red grapefruit pith, citrus spray, lily and river stone show on the nose, while the palate is ripe and refreshing with nuances of nectarine, pear and lychee flavors. Enjoy!

About the Wine

Hamel 2016 Red Blend Isthmus
Sweet dark cherry, plum and kirsch nuances cover a nose of soy, vanilla and spice. Palate-wise, sweet mulled dark red fruits and blackberry preserves are framed by concentrated, almost-sweet tannins and integrated oak flavors. Finish is smooth and belies the fact that this wine will last for the next decade.

Heintz 2014 Pinot Noir Swan Selection
The Charles Heintz 2014 'Swan Selections' Pinot Noir features the Swan Pinot Noir clone, a Sonoma County treasure that has adapted to the Heintz family's local terroir. The source for the celebrated clone is Joseph Swan's Russian River Valley estate, which was originally planted in 1969. The wines made from this clone tend to provide bright fruit and elegance. All manners of cherry are front and center in this beautiful 2014 'Swan Selections' Pinot Noir - red cherry, dark cherry, fresh cherry and dried cherry. On the nose, subtle notes of black raspberry, Santa Rosa plum, allspice, and violets are accented by a subtle woodsy character. The palate is deep, dense, and layered with grippy, fine-grained tannins and crisp, refreshing acidity. A nice touch of minerality comes through in the long, lingering finish.

Falcone 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon
Falcone's 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the meticulously farmed Falcone Family Vineyard in Paso Robles, California. Here, the vines produce a very intense wine that captures the flavors and characteristics of the Falcone Family site. This Cabernet Sauvignon shows great depth and structure with purple hues and a rich texture of velvety tannins. Aromas of dust, blackberry, anise and cocoa continue on the palate with soft lingering flavors of black cherry.

Bryter 2014 Pinot Noir Cadeau
The Bryter 2014 "Cadeau" Pinot Noir comes from the Sun Chase Vineyard on California's Sonoma Coast. Cadeau means 'gift' and perfectly suits this wine, which is truly a gift from nature. Dark ruby in color, this Pinot Noir offers powerful yet graceful aromas and flavors of lush blackberry, black cherry, black tea and spices. Its bold, ripe black cherry core is laced with complex layers of ripe juicy fruit, savory spice, and a hint of minerality. With an underlying foundation of mouth-watering acidity, the wine unfolds into a velvety finish with well integrated tannins and a seductive hint of sweet oak.

Mastro Scheidt 2015 Cabernet Franc
Produced from the acclaimed Merlo Vineyard in Sonoma County, the Mastro Scheidt 2015 Cabernet Franc is a beautiful wine of elegance and intensity, capturing the terroir from the northern extreme of the Dry Creek Valley sub region. This wine is classic New-World in style, but made with some Old-World influencing, showing deep, complex fruit notes and a distinctive intensity - but the wine is not coarse or rustic, rather it is well-balanced and refined.

Carte Blanche 2013 Pinot Noir
A noble grape from a noble place - Nobles Ranch is the latest addition to the Carte Blanche portfolio of vineyard sites, offering a rocky, coastal setting where Pinot Noir grapes grow into brilliant small berries of depth, complexity and structure. The Carte Blanche 2013 Pinot Noir leaps from the glass, showing bright Bing cherry, tangerine oil, and hints of cedar. Is it opens, the wine reveals bright juniper berries, cherries, black tea, and dried thyme across a rich and silky palate before a long, lingering finish.

Produced from the acclaimed Merlo Vineyard in Sonoma County, the Mastro Scheidt 2015 Cabernet Franc is a beautiful wine of elegance and intensity, capturing the terroir from the northern extreme of the Dry Creek Valley sub region. This wine is classic New-World in style, but made with some Old-World influencing, showing deep, complex fruit notes and a distinctive intensity - but the wine is not coarse or rustic, rather it is well-balanced and refined.

Alma Fria 2013 Pinot Noir DoNa Margarita Vineyard
Nestled between the two Sonoma Coast towns of Freestone and Occidental, the DoNa Margarita Vineyard is a stunning property that sits just above the fog line and is surrounded by dense wild forests of redwoods and pine trees. While certainly beautiful, the site is also an exceptional setting for growing cool climate loving Pinot Noir. The 2013 Alma Fria Pinot Noir offers aromas of rose petals, violets and mint, and a palate of fruit purity with notes of raspberry, cherry, violet, and subtle pepperiness.

Comartin 2014 Grenache
The Comartin 2014 Grenache comes from the Tierra Alta Vineyard, meaning 'The High Land." Tierra Alta is perched on top of Ballard Canyon in the Santa Ynez Valley, receiving great sun exposure and a high elevation of 1,200 feet, which allows for cool nights. This combination of warm days and cool nights promotes balanced ripening of the berries and clusters. Comartin's 2014 Grenache offers aromas of dried red cherry, turned earth, concentrated rose, and intriguing hints of carnations. The well-woven flavors include tart cherry and baking spices of vanilla and nutmeg, all seamlessly lingering on the long finish.

About the Wine

Weatherborne 2012 Pinot Noir
Produced from the John Sebastiano Vineyard and Melville Vineyards, the Weatherborne 2012 Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir is an earthy, savory wine beautifully and accurately representing the terroir of this renowned Central Coast appellation. Winemaker and founder Cris Carter only makes one wine each year - the best wine he can make, using the most minimalist winemaking methods and sourcing grapes from among the region's finest vineyards. His 2012 bottling is especially significant, as it not only represents his first Weatherborne vintage, but it also earned some hefty press from top reviewers. This 2012 Pinot Noir opens with aromas of raspberries, red currants, rhubarb, graphite and spice. The palate is bright and lively with notes of sweet fruit, dried fig, savory herbs, and anise leading into a soft and elegant finish.

Bryter 2014 Pinot Noir Cadeau
The Bryter 2014 "Cadeau" Pinot Noir comes from the Sun Chase Vineyard on California's Sonoma Coast. Cadeau means 'gift' and perfectly suits this wine, which is truly a gift from nature. Dark ruby in color, this Pinot Noir offers powerful yet graceful aromas and flavors of lush blackberry, black cherry, black tea and spices. Its bold, ripe black cherry core is laced with complex layers of ripe juicy fruit, savory spice, and a hint of minerality. With an underlying foundation of mouth-watering acidity, the wine unfolds into a velvety finish with well integrated tannins and a seductive hint of sweet oak.

Chesterfield 2017 Pinot Noir
 Five different vineyards make this wine a complex Pinot Noir with plenty of subtle nuances. All five lots were made with classic Burgundy practices of whole cluster fermentation, gentle press to barrel and extreme diligence to limit oxygen exposure during the entire wine making process. These traditional wine making practices allow this Pinot Noir to age extremely well for many years to come. Since it is a wine that is meant to age well, if you open a bottle soon, it will definitely benefit with some gentle decanting or enjoyed from large Pinot Noir glasses to take up some oxygen to bring out the amazing notes for which Sta. Rita Hills is famous. This beautiful Pinot Noir has deep red hues. Elegant, yet rich fruit with notes of pink roses, spice box and red cherries. The palate is crisp and bright, giving off flavors of Bing cherry, subtle oak and vanilla with a very faint hint of mushroom and forest floor.

Domaine Debray 2013 Pinot Noir Gevrey-Chamberin
This 2013 Pinot Noir from Domaine Debray comes from Gevrey-Chamberin, one of the wine villages of the Cote de Nuits in the Burgundy region of eastern France. The fruit for this wine was handpicked and carefully sorted to ensure only the best fruit made it into the final blend. Classic in style, this Pinot Noir has a fruity bouquet and a round, powerful palate that will go particularly well with strong cheeses and roasted meats.

Solomon Hills 2014 Pinot Noir
Crafted from the esteemed Solomon Hills vineyard, the western-most site in the Santa Maria Valley, this 2014 Pinot Noir packs great energy and tremendous depth of flavors. On the nose, vibrant aromatics of fennel, cinnamon and blue fruits dominate, while hints of toasted oak, rhubarb, cranberry and roasted plum come through as the wine opens up. These notes carry though on the palate, with the addition of spicy fruit flavors and nuances of bay leaf, dried sage and roasted meat. Well-integrated acidity balances out these masculine flavors that linger on the long finish.

Alma Fria 2013 Pinot Noir DoNa Margarita Vineyard
Nestled between the two Sonoma Coast towns of Freestone and Occidental, the DoNa Margarita Vineyard is a stunning property that sits just above the fog line and is surrounded by dense wild forests of redwoods and pine trees. While certainly beautiful, the site is also an exceptional setting for growing cool climate loving Pinot Noir.

About the Wine

Lobo 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Atlas Peak
The Lobo 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon was made from 100% estate grown fruit in the Atlas Peak appellation of Napa Valley. Planted on a classic rocky, volcanic hillside at 1,350 feet elevation, this vineyard produces grapes with rich and concentrated flavors. On the nose, this Cabernet Sauvignon offers aromas of cassis, dark chocolate and hints of vanilla. The palate is polished and balanced with fine, satiny tannins and flavors of ripe plum, black currant, blackberry, and a touch of minerality. Earthy undertones with hints of forest floor and black tea add to the elegance of this beautiful wine. Nuances of mocha come through on the long finish. Blended with a touch of Merlot and Petite Verdot from the same estate vineyard for balance and complexity. Enjoy!

Byron Blatty 2016 Red Blend Agenda
The Byron Blatty 2016 'Agenda' is a blend of 85% Syrah (from LA County's Alonso Family Vineyards) and 15% Tannat (from Bella Collina Vineyard in the Adelaida District of Paso Robles). On the nose, aromas of ripe red currants, fresh plums, sweet tobacco, earth, leather and boxwood mingle together. The palate is elegant and complex with brilliant acidity, ripe tannins, and nuanced flavors of fresh red berries, crushed gravel, and cocoa that carry through to the oak-accented, spiced finish. This wine is a true reflection of Byron Blatty's ongoing Agenda - making world class wines from LA County that showcase the diversity of the region's terroir.

Bien Nacido 2016 Syrah
The latest release of Bien Nacido Vineyards Estate Syrah reminds us that much of Central and Southern California was once covered by citrus groves. There is an amazing ruby red grapefruit and citron nose followed with exotic floral and smoky aromatics of violets, nutmeg, and bacon. This wine was co-fermented with Viognier. The co-fermentation of Viognier lends a softer and more floral tone, which makes the Estate Syrah a perfect wine to open early in its life. Fresh violets, cracked white pepper and blueberry pie dominate with a fresh herbs-de Provence note found in the background. Those who give the wine some time in bottle are rewarded with summer sausage and sweet leather. Fermentation always happens naturally, and it was never fined or filtered. The amount of Viognier varies depending on vintage, but generally around 2-4%.

Appellations 2013 Red Blend Sixteen
The 2013 Sixteen Appellations is a gorgeous red blend from some of the most notable vineyards in Napa Valley including Robert Keenan's Vineyard in Spring Mountain District, Blackbird Vineyard in Oak Knoll District, Annapurna Vineyard in Stags Leap District and Constant Vineyard in the Diamond Mountain District. As with all of the Appellations wines, this vintage represents Napa Valley as a whole, blending fruit from each of the sixteen appellations in the world renowned wine growing region. This 2013 vintage has the fruit, spice and earth notes that characterize the signature Appellations blend. It has red fruits up front, held together by a lattice of oak spices, including star anise, cardamom and clove. There is a creamy mid-palate, which might remind you of a warm chocolate tart drizzled with red fruit syrup. The finish is long with sweet, supple tannins.

Solomon Hills 2014 Pinot Noir
Crafted from the esteemed Solomon Hills vineyard, the western-most site in the Santa Maria Valley, this 2014 Pinot Noir packs great energy and tremendous depth of flavors. On the nose, vibrant aromatics of fennel, cinnamon and blue fruits dominate, while hints of toasted oak, rhubarb, cranberry and roasted plum come through as the wine opens up. These notes carry though on the palate, with the addition of spicy fruit flavors and nuances of bay leaf, dried sage and roasted meat.

EX Wines 2017 Pinot Noir
The EX 2017 Pinot Noir offers a true expression of the quality and soul of the San Saba Estate Vineyard in Monterey's Santa Lucia Highlands. For a wine that sees minimal new oak, this Pinot Noir is incredibly rich and expansive, showing off the personality and characteristics of this special site. This wine is bright and energetic with cherry and red berry flavors that have undertones of earth and fresh minerality. Aromas of rusty cherries and sagebrush round out this smooth, silky and well balanced Pinot Noir. Enjoy!

Appellations 2013 Red Blend Sixteen
The 2013 Sixteen Appellations is a gorgeous red blend from some of the most notable vineyards in Napa Valley including Robert Keenan's Vineyard in Spring Mountain District, Blackbird Vineyard in Oak Knoll District, Annapurna Vineyard in Stags Leap District and Constant Vineyard in the Diamond Mountain District.

Juslyn 2016 Red Blend Perry's Blend
This latest release of Perry's Blend (formerly called Proprietary Red) features an assortment of aromatics including black cherry, cedar and fragrant hints of lavender. The palate sensation is rich and lush and continues the cherry and oaky flavors with an excellent balance of forward fruit (making it a showy wine) and acid. This one is a keeper and should be good for the next fifteen years and should improve as it gets older. Hardly anyone will actually wait that long to enjoy this red beauty. Really sharp cheeses (Cheshire and Roquefort would do nicely) will accent this marvelous selection as well as hearty meat and most venison dishes.

Maroon 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Special Reserve
Fruit for this Special Reserve Cabernet originated in Maroon Vineyard in the Coombsville AVA of Napa Valley. The vineyard combines several unique factors including varying soils (including volcanic) mostly on hillsides, plus an excellent drainage system. These combine with a cooler climate (Coombsville is much cooler than the rest of Napa Valley) that produces a plethora of exceptional fruit. Unique violet/black color. Aromas of cherry, black currant, blackberry and honeycomb combine to produce dark chocolate and espresso on the palate. Lingering finish produces tobacco and creamy oak tones. Enjoy!

Les Bouquinistes 2017 Red Blend Chapter 3
An unyielding nose of bright cherry, hints of pluot fruit, quince paste and spicy overtones lift this exceptional field blend from the Calistoga AVA in Napa Valley. The palate is brought together by a combination of structured Petite Sirah and an inky Petit Verdot that provide firmness and body, while the Merlot and Zinfandel add the bright red fruit elements. It's an elegant estate grown wine that finishes bright and full, and lingers for that extra moment. Perfect by itself or any fine cut of beef. Allow it to breath and notice the wine opens up with new elements to discover both on the nose and the palate.

About the Wine

Buoncristiani 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon
95 POINTS -- Robert Parker, Jr.'s Wine Advocate "Containing a 4% splash of Malbec, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is very deep garnet-purple colored and displays warm black plums, black cherries and black berries with wafts of red currants, cedar chest, dried Provence herbs, lavender and spice box. Full, firm and velvety textured, the palate yields mouth-filling black fruits and spicy layers with a very long, perfumed finish." Winemaker Notes: This blend was handcrafted from small lots harvested exclusively from hillside vineyards in Howell Mountain and Coombsville. This wine was aged in barrels for 20 months and bottled unfined and unfiltered. Expect to find deep aromas of cassis, black cherry, incense, dark chocolate, caramelized oak, toffee, and the Buoncristiani signatures of balance, depth on the mid palate, and a lengthy persistent finish. Precise amounts of Malbec were carefully folded into the final blend to add complexity and depth to the profile. Twenty months aging in 85% new French oak barrels rounded out the palate even further, while adding more texture, aroma and flavor.

Titus 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Family Reserve
94 POINTS -- Antonio Galloni's Vinous "The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Family Reserve is inky, rich and explosive. Creme de cassis, blueberry jam, chocolate, menthol and sweet spice are all amped up in an unctuous, flamboyantly ripe Cabernet that will drink nicely with minimal cellaring. This is an especially rich, plush style. Hints of graphite, lavender, spice and new leather build into the super-expressive finish. This is very nicely done." 93 POINTS -- Jeb Dunnuck "The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Family Estate Reserve has lots to love. Deep black fruits, chocolate, tobacco, and lead pencil shaving-like notes all emerge from the glass, and its full-bodied, has a plush, seamless texture, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It's an undeniable success to enjoy over the coming 10-15 years."

Lewis 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon
93 Points - Wine Spectator Magazine "Solidly built with loam and warm licorice notes melding into dark currant and blackberry compote flavors. Broad and fleshy through the finish. A bit stolid in personality, but the depth and definition is there." Winemaker's Notes - Josh Widaman "Juicy, ripe and fruitful, our 2016 Napa Valley Cabernet captures the kitchen aromas of home jam-making. Creamy vanilla and wood spice together with black plum, truffle and earth give the nose delectable character. Flush with fruit, dusky, dense and polished, the wine finishes with cushy, dark-chocolate tannins."

Maroon 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Special Reserve
Fruit for this Special Reserve Cabernet originated in Maroon Vineyard in the Coombsville AVA of Napa Valley. The vineyard combines several unique factors including varying soils (including volcanic) mostly on hillsides, plus an excellent drainage system. These combine with a cooler climate (Coombsville is much cooler than the rest of Napa Valley) that produces a plethora of exceptional fruit. Unique violet/black color. Aromas of cherry, black currant, blackberry and honeycomb combine to produce dark chocolate and espresso on the palate. Lingering finish produces tobacco and creamy oak tones. Enjoy!

Purlieu 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon
95 POINTS -- Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate "Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon gives up exuberant notions of blackcurrant pastilles, blackberry compote and stewed red plums with touches of kirsch, potpourri, fragrant earth and cigar box. Full-bodied and opulently fruited in the mouth, the powerful flavors are well framed by firm, ripe tannins and just enough freshness, finishing long and spicy." 93 POINTS -- Wine Spectator "Solid, featuring a direct beam of cassis and raspberry reduction flavors, flanked by anise, applewood and bramble notes. A loamy echo chimes through the rich, polished finish."

GKG 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon
96 Points - Jeb Dunnuck "From a collaboration between Dave Phinney and Greg Gorman sourced from the Lewelling Vineyard, the 2016 GKG Cabernet Sauvignon offers a classic, elegant style that's very much in the style of the 2016 vintage. ...its deep purple color is followed by a medium to full-bodied, nuanced Cabernet that has impressive notes of black raspberries, cassis, and purple iris. It shines for its purity of fruit, balance and length, and is a beautiful, age-worthy Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon." 95 Points - Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate ". . . the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is medium to deep garnet-purple colored and offers lovely scents of wilted roses, oolong tea and sandalwood with a core of cassis, baked plums and warm black cherries with touches of olives and lavender. Medium to full-bodied with a good solid foundation of grainy tannins and oodles of freshness, it delivers beautifully understated fruit and a harmonious finish."
