Bernard Magrez Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2011

Strap in! Gonna be a wild ride! Cabernet/Bordeaux/pedal-to-the-metal Napa lovers...this is your day!

OK, actually, there are so many reasons besides the price (we’ve been working on this for months!!) -- shall we proceed?

  • Bernard Magrez, (he of Bordeaux rockstar Chateau Pape-Clement no less, and many other Chateaux and super high-end wineries all over the world)

  • The legendary and much-fussed over/coveted Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard in St. Helena

  • Benoit Toquette! REALM, HARTWELL, FAIT-MAIN and many more rockstar Napa Cabs from this French winemaker…

  • 92 points -- “persistent, sweet, and intense…”

  • Our wicked-killer price (oh, did we mention that?)

RICH. Hedonistic. Luxurious. Benoit’s touch is all over this wine and it packs in the black cherry extract, smoky, vanilla-tinged wood, licorice and mocha for days...just amazing to have this even -- production is like...nothing. Anyway, that’s all we’ll say, it’s HYPER-limited! As my Dad used to say --- “don’t blink or you’ll miss it!”

"My life. Forty years of passion for wine. Forty vineyards acquired, in France but also abroad I ruled nothing out. Especially the impossible. I wanted better, I wanted more, I relentlessly wanted to offer wine lovers fine wines with different styles, flavors, and pleasures. In order to answer their needs, I decided to add my signature to each of my bottles, to privilege rare wines for the pleasure of wine lovers. My main goal is to pass on excellence."
