Proprietor Alejandro Pedro Bulgheroni established this label in 2014. Entirely estate fruit, comprising beautiful rich berry scents, oak, crushed rocks and a saline minerality tinged with dark chocolate. Enveloping, full and broad-shouldered. Saturated dark berry fruit, chocolate layer cake, vanilla and dried herbs de provence round out this Cabernet with its fierce tannins that are nicely integrated.Inc. GSTSG$1,395.95 -

Lithology’s Beckstoffer To Kalon Cabernet Franc is a riveting, opulent, flashy red, embodying everything there is to love about a full-flavoured California red wine. Loaded with blue fruit that will surely mellow with age, but for classicists looking forward to a finesse-driven Cabernet Franc, look elsewhere. This is larger-than-life Cabernet Franc, and there’s no denying the delicious factor, fueled by layers of blueberry, plum, and boysenberry fruit tinged with sweet cedar spices. A generous dose of minerality overtakes the mid-palate, and dusty tannins build on the finish, which gains in savoury saline edges. One can see a window into the future of this wine, which is bright and more refined as it will eventually shed some of its youthful exuberance.Inc. GSTSG$2,071.11 -
Dive into the depths of fine wine experience with the exceptional Aloft Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2016. Produced by Marchesi Antinori, this exquisite Californian wine is sourced from the alluring vineyards of Howell Mountain AVA, renowned for its volcanic soils and unique microclimate. The painstaking crafting of this wine begins with careful hand harvesting and sorting, followed by 25 days of maceration. Thenceforth, it is meticulously aged in new French oak barrels for 20 months, providing a complex structure. This results in a Cabernet Sauvignon, profound in its opulence, revealing powerful notes of black cherry, cacao and an intriguing touch of minerality on the finish. Boasting balanced acidity and firm, ripe tannins, the Aloft Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 is a paragon of harmony and elegance. With limited production each year, it’s a prestigious addition for the discerning oenophiles, providing a sensory exploration that echoes the very essence of luxurious sipping.

The 2013 Amuse Bouche is one of the more refined wines I have tasted here. Sweet floral and spice notes open up first, followed by an intricately woven fabric of expressive dark red fleshed fruits. Hints of menthol, tobacco and wild flowers add to the wine's sensual, perfumed personality. Elegant, supple and forward, the 2013 Amuse Bouche can be enjoyed young. The blend is 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc.Inc. GSTSG$2,134.02 -

The 2014 Amuse Bouche, the flagship Merlot/Cabernet Franc blend, is absolutely delicious. Dark cherry, mocha, spice and leather open up nicely in the glass. Fleshy, supple and radiant, with silky tannins underpinning the fruit, the 2014 has a lot to offer, even in the early going. I would prefer to drink it over the next decade or so.Inc.

The 2018 Proprietary Red Blend Amuse Bouche is composed of 92% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple in color, it bursts from the glass with bombastic scents of ripe black plums, boysenberries and Black Forest cake with hints of Morello cherries, star anise, cardamom and red roses, plus a touch of garrigue.

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Helena Dakota (445 cases) is absolutely magnificent. Opaque black/purple in color, it comes across like a Château Montrose from a great vintage – a very earthy St.-Estèphe-inspired wine with the essence of loamy soil and crushed rocks interwoven with blackberry and cassis fruit. Some oak makes an appearance, but it is pushed to the background by the extravagance and enormous body and extract of this wine of phenomenal intensity. This is a classic Pierre Seillan style of wine meant for 25-40 years of cellaring.Inc. GSTSG$1,539.54 -

Very deep purple-black in color, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Helena Dakota Vineyard has a compelling savoriness of char-grilled meat and roasted nuts on the nose with a core of crème de cassis, violets and crushed plums plus a touch of garrigue.

Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Helena Dakota Vineyard was aged for 12 months in 100% new French oak. Deep garnet-purple in color, it has a profound yet slightly broody nose to begin, slowly unfurling to reveal wonderfully fragrant notes of wild blueberries, black cherries, dark chocolate and warm cassis, followed by nuances of garrigue, violets, tar and licorice plus a touch of wet stones. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has gorgeous velvety tannins and finely knit freshness supporting generous black and blue fruits, finishing very long and achingly fragrant.

Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Helena Montana Vineyard spent 12 months in 100% new French oak. Deep garnet-purple in color, it bursts from the glass with bold scents of fresh blackberries, black currants and mulberries plus suggestions of cedar chest, pencil lead, iron ore and truffles, with emerging wafts of crushed rocks and charcoal.

The 2018 Eaba is another wine from Jim that puts its foot firmly on the ripeness pedal and offers a blockbuster-like style of ripe black fruits, wood smoke, cured meats, and peppery goodness. Full-bodied and concentrated on the palate, it’s flawlessly balanced, has gorgeous tannins, and a great finish. Drink it over the coming 10-12 years or so. The 2018 is 59% Syrah, 23% Mourvedre, 15% Grenache, and the rest Viognier, aged 22 months in 50% new French oak.Inc. GSTSG$3,085.99 -

Another wine that flirts with perfection is the 2018 Mourvedre, and you’d be hard pressed to find a better Mourvèdre out there. Offering a beautiful freshness as well as powerful notes of black and blue fruits, violets, ground pepper, iron, and a touch of bloody meat, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, ripe, silky tannins, no hard edges, and one heck of a great finish. This powerful, stacked Mourvèdre should have 15 years of longevity. The 2018 checks in as 85% Mourvedre, 12% Syrah, and the balance Viognier that was 25% destemmed and spent 21 months in 50% new French oak barriques and 600-liter demi-muids.Inc. GSTSG$859.68 -

The 2020 Mourvèdre is another potent wine in this range from Andremily. There's good energy here. It offers up an intriguing mix of tobacco, gravel, incense, leather and spice. Today, though, the Mourvèdre comes across as raw and not fully formed, but that's what aging is for.Inc. GSTSG$3,039.79 -
Vinous (94)
The 2015 Andremily No. 4 has turned out beautifully. Ample and giving on the palate, with tremendous aromatic intensity, the 2015 has a ton to offer. A year ago, the No. 4 was decidedly exuberant. Today, it has developed into a polished wine that balances intensity and nuance. Lavender, mint, sage, chocolate and black cherry jam give the wine its dark personality, while a touch of whole clusters adds an attractive savory/peppery quality. The new oak is a bit on the lavish side, but that is a relatively small critique for a wine that offers so much pleasure.Inc. GSTSG$1,334.92 -

Another perfect wine from Jim Binns is the 2019 No 8, a blend of 88% Syrah, 9% Mourvèdre, and 3% Viognier. This full-bodied powerhouse of a wine has that rare mix of richness and elegance as well as a stunning array of red, blue, and black fruits along with notes of ground pepper, violets, and spring flowers. The balance is as good as it gets, it has ultra-fine tannins, and again, a mix of power and finesse that's something to behold. It's unquestionably approachable today yet should benefit from a few years of bottle age and keep for 15+.Inc. GSTSG$3,504.76 -
Jeb Dunnuck (99)
I loved the 2020 No 9 from barrel and this beauty does not disappoint from bottle. Based on 89% Syrah, 9% Mourvèdre, and the rest Viognier that was only 50% destemmed, it spent 22 months in 65% new French oak. A wine that demands lots of air to show at its best, it reveals a deep plum/purple hue as well as a brilliant bouquet of red, blue, and black fruits, ground pepper, iodine, crushed violets, and wild sagebrush. With incredible purity and precision aromatically, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a deep, layered, concentrated mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It's a big, rich wine from Binns, but if anything, it shows another level of finesse and stays light on its feet and graceful. This world-class Syrah will benefit from 3-5 years of bottle age and evolve nicely over the following two decades. It's clearly one of the wines of the vintage in Santa Barbara, if not one of the greatest 2020s in the state.Inc. GSTSG$2,852.50 -
Pridefully showcasing the best of Santa Ynez Valley, the Andrew Murray Roasted Slope Vyd Syrah 2020 is indeed a masterpiece. Andrew Murray, renowned for his prodigious talent in winemaking, seamlessly infuses the robust character of Syrah grapes grown in the perfect Mediterranean climate of California. Methodically handpicked, the grapes are then fermented in small lots, capturing the elegant essence of the fruit without compromising the depth of flavour.
This captivating red wine rivals even the best French Rhône varieties with its dark, smoky complexity and vibrant fruitiness, marked with rich, ripe, blackberry flavours—all underlined by a subtle hint of roasted meat. Its velvety tannins lend a sophisticated structure, and the finish is long and opulent. This exponent emulates the traditional French style, while keeping it uniquely 'Andrew Murray'. A bottle of Andrew Murray Roasted Slope Vyd Syrah 2020 is surely an experience catered for the discerning palate.

(an 85/15 blend of sauvignon blanc and semillon): Bright, green-tinged yellow. Lovely perfume combines pungent lime skin, stone fruits, lemon drop and essential oils. Dense, sappy and opulent yet somehow weightless, conveying a powerful impression of energy to the flavors of nectarine, lime oil and honey. The semillon contributes roundness.

The 2020 Chardonnay Watson Ranch is light and lacking in both flavor development and depth. With fires advancing, this fruit was brought in five days earlier than normal.

Relish the fine symphony of the Au Bon Climat Chardonnay Nuits Blanches au Bouge 2020, a fine testament to Californian viticulture.

The grapes, grown in the renowned Bien Nacido Vineyard, are meticulously sorted and feremented in French oak barrels, resulting in a harmonious blend of richness and vibrancy. On the nose, hints of citrus fruit merge seamlessly with toasty oak nuances; on the palate, expect structured minerality balanced with crisp acidity and a lingering finish.
