6 x Aged & Epic
New World Cabs + Blends
2009, 2010, 2012, 2013
|  | |
Dear friends,
I'm happy that yesterday's two Argentine gems found in the warehouse are already blowing people away. Several curious clients bought cases immediately after one taste!! That shows you how wonderful wines will perform when in their 'sweet spot' drinking window.
I wrote how I absolutely love sharing what I call landmines—wines kept in our cold storage that we unintentionally looked over, but are outstanding in every way.
They explode from the glass as we revisit them, and we always say the same thing each time: "We should have bought more."
With these bold remarks, please allow me to put my money where your mouth is by sharing my favorite curation with extreme subsidies. These six sublime New World Cab and Cab Blends will rock your world.
You know that most of our selection is already priced the lowest in this country or state. These aggressive sales sacrifice our razor-thin margins even further—not sustainable! Take advantage while stock lasts.
By the way: you'll never have problems opening aged wines again if you use the greatest opener in the world: The Durand. We strongly suggest you use an Osso with any vintage bottles.
Thank you for reading, and have a fantastic week ahead.
All my best,
—James Tran

96 Points - Wine Spectator: "Beautifully concentrated, with a floral undertone to the rich yet racy wild berry, cassis and damson plum skin fruit character that’s tightly wound around fine tannins. The finish is long and compact / 500 cases imported."(12/15/12)

94 Points - Robert Parker: "Traditionally, Robert Craig has done a brilliant job with their selection from Mount Veeder, and the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Mount Veeder (80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot) shows that haunting blueberry, raspberry, black raspberry and floral notes that seem characteristic of that AVA. A dense ruby/purple color, beautifully sweet purity, full-bodied opulence with a layered mouthfeel as well as sweet tannin make for another great 2013 that can be drunk young or cellared for 20-25 years." -RP (12/15)

92 Points - Vinous: "The 2009 Endre offers up hints of sage, rosemary, wild cherries and tobacco, all supported by vibrant yet-well-integrated tannins. Deceptively medium in body, the 2009 boasts considerable structure and intensity to match its highly appealing mid-weight personality. Like many 2009s, today the Endre is a bit tight and in need of another year or so of bottle age. The blend is 51% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petite Verdot." (12/12)

Made by Mark Herold: Winemaker of Kamen, Vineyardist
93 Points - Robert Parker's WA: "The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon is a relatively big, robust, rich Cabernet Sauvignon (15.2% alcohol) with a dense ruby/purple color, creamy, toasty oak. Loads of blueberry and blackberry fruit and an opaque purple color, this full-bodied wine is still young, but really savory, rich and bold. Drink it over the next 15 or so years." (12/15)

93 Points - Robert Parker's WA: "Has terrific Cabernet notes of black currants, black cherries, coffee bean, tobacco leaf and spring flowers. Rich, medium to full-bodied, beautifully concentrated and structured, with building, fine tannin on the finish, this beauty is approachable today, but will cruise in the cellar for 15+ years." - Jeb Dunnuck (9/16)

Made by Chris Phelps: Winemaker of Dominus, Caymus, Inglenook, Ad Vivum
90 Points - Robert Parker: "The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Alexis (1,572 cases made) offers abundant aromas of crème de cassis, licorice and spice, medium to full body, round tannins, decent acidity and good balance as well as depth. Approachable, it should continue to evolve nicely for a dozen years or more. This is the best set of bottled wines I have seen from Swanson in a number of years." - RP (10/14)
