Back in February at Premier Napa Valley Weekend we bumped into the Anomaly winemaking team of Mark Porembski and Gerich Fellerman at the A.S.H. tasting or St. Helena tasting. We were impressed with their Cabernet Sauvignon and it was one of the top wines we tasted that weekend. Last month a couple of us happened to be in the valley and we phoned Read More...

DuMol makes some of the countries best Pinot Noir, Chardonnay as well as a small amount of Syrah and Viognier. We spent the better part of two years begging and pleading with proprietor Kerry Murphy to sell us some of his wine. Our perseverance paid off.  A few of us had the great fortune to taste the spring release of these Read More...


Dierberg and Pinot Noir are synonomous for outstanding Pinot Noir. The Dierberg vineyard is located fourteen miles from the Pacific Ocean . The exceptional planning, planting and farming of this vineyard is a key factor to the growing reputation of the vineyard for world class Pinot Noir. Starting in 1997 the vineyards was planted to three Dijon clones and field select Read More...


While wine making has been in the family since the 1800's, the winery just recently developed into a rising star over the past few years, adding another estate to the elite in the Nahe region.  With a low yield policy (average yield around 50 hl/ha) and the recent acquisition of more great vineyard sites to their holdings, the winery is well on the way to challenge top Read More...


Since this wine debuted in 1990, Harlan Estate has produced one of California's most impressive Cabernet Sauvignons in each vintage of the nineties. The impressive mountainside vineyard is situated on the western side of Napa Valley, overlooking Martha's Vineyard. No compromises are made in producing this dazz  Read More...


High above the Stag's Leap District in a small sub-appellation of Napa Valley known as Atlas Peak and extending on to Pritchard Hill are the rocky, mountainous vineyards of Krupp Brothers Estates. Krupp Brothers began in 1991 with the vision of Jan Krupp, a physician with a green-thumb and a passion for great wine  Read More...


A few friends of RC and some staff just returned from Oregon on another “business trip.” We thought it’d be the perfect time to scope out the just released 2006 vintage and invite some folks down to our third installment of Pinot Palooza.  We arrived in Portland around 2pm on  Read More...


Since the beginning, Beaux Fréres has stood at the front of the pack of Oregon Pinot Noir producers.  The Beaux Frères philosophy is to produce a world-class Pinot Noir from tiny yields and ripe fruit. Non-manipulative, uncompromising methods guarantee a wine that is the most natural  Read More...


There’s a story in every bottle of wine...
IN 1996, DAD DECIDED he wanted to plant something in the backyard. He had never grown anything before, not even a tomato plant, but grapes seemed to be doing well in his area. “We’ll just test it out,” he reasoned with us. And then he planted nine acres of cabernet sauvignon.  Read More...


Germany's reputation as the greatest white wine producer in the world was historically based largely on the Rheingau. One of our favorite Rheingau producers over the last several vintages has been Stefan Gerhard. So with pleasure we introduce the arrival of the 2007's.  All his wines utilize the new glass corks which truly represents the future of wine closures.  Stefan made his annual visit to our store to taste through his wines late March.  Many of you have become fans of these wines through our offering over the last few years but I believe that Read More...


2003 Brunello di Montalcino
"This just in…the 2003 vintage Brunello di Montalcino's are being released and they are impressive! 2003 Brunellos I have tasted so far from the top producers in Montalcino have showed good structure and freshness. They will be very approachable young but they will improve with age as well. They will start arriving on the market March 2008.  Read More...




2006 Silex, Pur Sang, Blanc Fumé de Pouilly, and 2005 Jurancon Les Jardins de Babylone
In and around the village of St. Andelain, just outside of Pouilly-sur-Loire, Didier Dagueneau makes some of the most unique and interesting wines in the world. His craft is the ultimate fusion of modern winemaking and ultra- traditional techniques of vineyard management.  He does nothing half way, and thus his wines achieve the ultimate expression of terroir, climate and technique.  Read More...


On our recent visit to Napa Valley we had the opportunity to visit with and taste the wines of one of Napa’s rising stars Mac Watson of Macauley Vineyards. This, without a doubt was the highlight of our trip. The Macauley Vineyard label was originally established in St. Helena in the early 1980s by Ann Macauley Watson and for several years produced a very well received late harvest Sauvignon Blanc with help from renowned winemaker, Rick Forman.  Read More...


Well, we just got back from Premiere Napa Valley 2008. Work, work, work, work, work. What I have to through to keep my customers informed. Try 2 and ½ days in Napa with Dave, Robert, Durrell, Stiggo, Chip and Rick at a breakneck pace and it almost feels like work when you look at the schedule we keep. So far, nobody is giving me any sympathy and none Read More...

After being banned from the USA since 1912, Absinthe is now legal. Absinthe derives its name from Artemisia absinthium, a bitter herb know as wormwood. Wormwood contains an ingredient known as thujone which accounts for the alleged mind-altering properties that caused Absinthe to be banned.

Absinthe is usually green in color. That’s why it was referred to as La Fee Verte (The Green Fairy). In addition to wormwood, there are other herbal Read More...


In just a few short years, this small winery has reached great heights in Barolo, capturing the extraordinary personality of their family vineyards. While recent vintages have been well executed, the 2003 vintage finds Saffirio Barolo at a whole new level of elegance and complexity. This is an exciting year for Barolo—an unusually hot summer put growers to the test, yet those who were diligent were amply rewarded with exciting wines Read More...
