Mission Codename Canis lupus

“Compelling precision and poise, with just enough unbridled decadence to make you wonder.” - Wine Advocate

Many of you already know Wolf’s Head. If you don’t, but like ‘em “full-bodied, rich and seductive” you should get familiar, especially when we’re rocking at a healthy over half-off drop on the price. But it’s been years since we last offered this wildly popular wine. So, if you’re among the uninitiated, here’s a prime-time cult Napa value before your very eyes.

“So, you sending The Wolf??” Noir hung up the phone and broke out a random Zeb Ross style crib walk. High fives all around. After months of trying, the deal was secured!

This comes from Cameron Woodbridge (brother of Hundred ‘Jayson’ Acre), who himself makes some kick-ass wines. Now, being a brother of a superstar winemaker doesn’t automatically qualify you in any way but as a past Wine Advocate review noted “clearly winemaking talent runs in the family, and yet his style is clearly his own…”

It has all the hallmarks of a primetime, big ballin’, shot-callin’ Napa Cabernet. Rockstar winemaker. Prime Calistoga fruit. Exquisite packaging. And we got a kick-ass price. It’s already a fairly good deal at $70. With over 50% OFF, it turns into a stupendous world’s-lowest-price type of deal.

All it’s missing is that stomach-churning triple-digit price tag.

Cameron worked alongside Jayson and Philippe Melka, who consulted for Hundred Acre at the time, starting in 2005. He honed his skills and broke out on his own to make a comparably opulent, hedonistic, high-scoring Cabernet. He’s also the one behind the ever-popular Stormy Weather we’ve sold.

If so, you know the style he puts out. It ticks all the boxes you like in a Napa Cab. Rich, warm, ripe, earthy, spicy. A smattering of figs, blackberries, and black cherries. A mixtape of fresh tobacco leaf, cedar, and other toasty woody notes. A crescendo of chocolate ganache all leading into a marathon finish that goes on and on.

All that’s left to say is this: how many can you fit into your Locker? Fill it up and ship it out!

92 Points – The Wine Independent “Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon sashays out with ready-to-go notes of cassis, baked blueberries, and redcurrant jelly, followed by wafts of tree bark, tilled soil, and charcuterie. The full-bodied palate is rich and seductive, with velvety tannins and a long, spicy finish. Drink 2023-2035.”
