Slightly deeper and richer, with more blackcurrant fruits as well as tobacco, lead pencil, spice box, graphite, and dried flower-like nuances, the 2018 Malbec Farrow Ranch is a beauty, hitting the palate with full-bodied richness, a deep, layered, multi-dimensional texture, building tannins, and a stunning finish that carries remarkable minerality as well as freshness. Malbec doesn't get any better, and this magical wine will evolve for 20 years or more. It’s the finest Malbec I’ve ever tasted and hats off to winemaker Jesse Katz.Inc. GSTSG$4,021.88 -

The 2019 Geyserville marks a pretty huge step up in this range. What a wine! Black cherry, plum, chocolate, cloves, menthol and licorice blast across the palate. Deep and saturated, with tremendous concentration, the 2019 Geyserville is a wine to cellar for at least a few years. Today, it is positively stunning.Inc. GSTSG$715.50 -

The 2020 Geyserville is quite soft in this vintage. Bright red-fleshed fruit, crushed flowers, cedar, spice and sweet pipe tobacco all grace this mid-weight edition of Geyserville. All things considered, the 2020 is nicely done.Inc. GSTSG$1,051.72 -

With unrivalled pedigree, the Silver Oak Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 is an outstanding embodiment of Californian wine craftsmanship. This offering hails from the renowned Alexander Valley, a region celebrated for its remarkable wines. Luxuriously aged for 24 months in American oak, it bestows a sophisticated composition and remarkable balance. Silver Oak, a distinguished winery established in 1972, has devotedly pursued a unique and exceptional Cali-Cab style. This particular vintage encapsulates these qualities with resounding success.
A deep garnet hue hints at the abundance of character contained within. On the nose, it teased with aromas of black fruit and allspice enriched by notes of vanilla. The palate rejoices in a parade of black cherry, plum, and cocoa underscored by a touch of savoury complexity. The Silver Oak Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 concludes with a laudably long and graceful finish. Rich, sophisticated and deservedly sought after, it serves as an impressive highlight to any connoisseur's collection.

The 2016 Chardonnay Upper Barn Vineyard comes from the oldest vines on the estate, planted in 1982. Fermented in barrel and aged for 11 months in 47% new French oak, it is a little closed to begin, slowly unfurling to reveal pink grapefruit, white peaches and Granny Smith apples with nuances of honeysuckle, lemon tart and praline. Medium to full-bodied, it explodes in the mouth with citrus and savory layers, with a gorgeous silkiness and loads of ginger and mineral sparks coming through on the finish. Wow! 813 cases produced.Inc. GSTSG$358.04 -

The 2018 Chardonnay Upper Barn Vineyard was aged for 10 months in French oak, 46% new. It has a very classy nose of ripe peaches, fresh yellow apples and allspice followed by fresh ginger, cashew and acacia honey plus a waft of sea spray. Full-bodied, rich, satiny and with fantastic intensity and tension, it finishes very long and chalky. YUM! 600 cases were made.Inc. GSTSG$1,259.87
