Just Arrived, In Stock Now:

Only two bottles available
Cayuse Vineyards Armada Vineyard Syrah, Walla Walla Valley 2015 750ML ($179.95) $149 special
Wine Advocate 97 points
“The 2015 Syrah Armada Vineyard is superb, wafting from the glass with a complex and savory bouquet of dark chocolate, peat, candied violets, plums and marinading meat. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, rich and layered, with a deep core of sapid fruit framed by powdery, fine-grained tannins and concluding with a saline finish.

Featured New Arrival

Arnaldo Caprai’s Fantastic Rosso

Arnaldo Caprai is one of the stars of Italian wine. One of the two faces of Montefalco (along with Paolo Bea), their wines are rich, lush bottlings that manage to tame Sagrantino’s tannins more than most.  In the case of their Rosso, the native grape is married to Sangiovese (which comprises most of the blend) and a touch of Merlot.  The result is something like a Chianti on steroids, with excellent value and a distinctly Umbrian personality.

Dominus has been on a roll.  Both the 2015 and now the 2016 vintages of this landmark wine are some of the best wines in Napa ever, at prices that should make cult-cabs blush.  The 2016 is in stock and is stunning—a statement to which Wine Spectator now concurs.
