Not long ago Miner cleared out their library of wines, and graciously allowed us to share them with our legion of loyal Operatives. We started with ten, and one by one they keep falling like dominoes. 

As expected, the 2015 Oracle didn’t last very long. Next to go? The 2010 Stagecoach, the 2014 Oakville, and the 2012 Stagecoach. With just handful of cases of each one, the clock is ticking if you’ve been waiting to pull the trigger.

And hanging in the feature slot we have something special for you. Agents Brut and Sol fawned over this 2009 Oakville Cabernet. We’re sure you’ll understand once you try it.

2009 is a 96 point vintage for Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon according to Wine Spectator, a “late, cool year yielding a surprise bounty of pure, opulent wines.”

This Cabernet comes from select lots from three of their top vineyards. It showed SO nicely, with remarkable freshness and tons of dense fruit remaining. Sleek and polished with tobacco and walnut husk layered on blackberry and cassis with hints of mocha and barrel spices. A blast to drink, and compare alongside the rest. It’s hard to pick a favorite but you gotta collect ‘em all to truly appreciate the range.

While they last!
