Dear Artisans,
Welcome to your wonderful weekend!
It is the last call for the finest unique white in all of America, and right now it's still CHEAP for the cult-level-quality. It's currently poured by-the-glass or on the wine list at French Laundry, La Toque, Village Pub, Spruce, Meadowood, and several more Michelin-Stars.
This will blow away all wine drinkers but ESPECIALLY those of you that love the finest Old World whites we have shared with you, like Terlano, Livio Felluga, Vie di Romans, Dagueneau, Pietradolce Etna Bianco just to name a few.
We have the last 2, out of the 1,582 cases that were made, for their Annia flagship, so please move quick to secure this glorious 'house white' for your Spring and Summer.
-
P.S. We have the last 19 bottles of their 2022 Sauvignon Blanc, which is even more limited than the Annia!
-
P.P.S. Scroll to the bottom to see more last calls you don't want to miss!
Cheers,
—James Tran

2022 Massican "Annia" Napa Valley White Wine
The reviews for this vintage won't be published until next year, but this will be long sold out by then. See previous vintage pedigree below:
96 Points, #12 Top 100 of '21 - Wine Enthusiast (2020 Vintage):
"Dan Petroski’s perennially delightful blend of 61% Tocai Friulano, 27% Ribolla Gialla and 12% Chardonnay from Hyde Vineyard stands out in its melding of floral, grippy composure and earthy intensity. Lemon candy, peach and white flower combine around ethereal accents of salt and slate."
92 Points - Wine Spectator (2021 Vintage):
"Fresh and crisp, with subtle pear, Honeycrisp apple and yuzu flavors, this gains momentum with notes of salted melon, lanolin and orange blossoms on the long, expressive finish. Tocai Friulano, Ribolla Gialla and Chardonnay. Drink now. 1,660 cases made."
95 Points - Wine Enthusiast (2019 Vintage):
"This is a consistently beautiful and beguiling white wine, a blend of Tocai Friulano, Ribolla Gialla and Chardonnay, the latter from Hyde Vineyards. Structured, mineral-driven and explosive in flavors of lemon zest, green apple and wet stone, it is a wine well worth stocking."
92 Points, #86 Top 100 of '18 - Wine Spectator (2017 Vintage):
A complex and inviting white, showing intricate nuances of roasted almond, matcha, honeysuckle and orange zest, mingling with supple, juicy Asian pear, tangerine and ripe melon notes. The smooth texture and a thread of acidity add to the appeal. Ribolla Gialla, Tocai Friulano and Chardonnay. Drink now. 1,128 cases made.
Winery Notes:
Our flagship white wine blend sourced from small vineyards around the Napa Valley. The three grape varietals, Tocai Friulano, Ribolla Gialla and Chardonnay, are harvested separately and fermented independently in French Oak and stainless steel tanks until blending six weeks before bottling. The Tocai and Ribolla build the aroma and flavor profile of the wine, while the Chardonnay adds to the wine’s structure. The wine is fresh and subtle and fulfills the promise set forth years ago to bottle memorable white wines, unique amongst the whites of California.

2022 Massican Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley
The reviews for this vintage won't be published until next year, but this will be long sold out by then. See previous vintage pedigree below:
94 Points - Wine Enthusiast (2020 Vintage):
"Made from fruit grown in Pope Valley and Carneros, this is a lifted, elegant and persistently fresh white. It was whole-cluster pressed then barrel fermented with indigenous yeast and aged for six months. A flinty palate presents flavors of wet stone, cucumber and ocean spray."
93 Points - Wine Spectator (2021 Vintage):
"Effusive, intense and mouthwatering, offering yuzu, ruby grapefruit and Fuji apple flavors at the core, with accents of sea salt, lemongrass, vetiver and fresh-grated ginger on the long, expressive finish. Drink now. 1,096 cases made." -MW
Winery Notes:
"Inspired by the Sauvignon wines of northern Italy, our Sauvignon Blanc pays homage to the tart and delicious everyday wine workhorse of the region of Friuli. While it is difficult to recreate these specific Italian wines anywhere else in the world, Sauvignon is our California interpretation of these great Italian white wines. The grapes for this wine are farmed at distinct vineyards in Napa and Sonoma where the temperatures are both the warmest during the day and the coolest at night. That diversity helps us produce a wine of intensity and freshness, and as such we tip-our-Sauvignon-hat to our fellow winemakers in northeast Italy."
