Mission Codename A 3rd diamond on us

Happy Monday! Today is THE day.

SCHRADER.

Yes, THAT Schrader. The one with 94 points from Dunnuck. Possibly the best ‘second wine’ from any Napa cult source. While their wines sell for $300-400+ this costs a fraction of that.

It’s WORTH EVERY DANG PENNY in a time when so many things seem anything but…

This comes from the Oakville cult wine powerhouse that received 100-point scores from Wine Advocate across three consecutive vintages under the direction THE Thomas Rivers Brown! Double Diamond is their entry-level offering here, but it’s anything but entry-level in the grand scheme of things. It serves up that same plump, pure, downright seductive charisma you’d expect from arguably one of the world’s finest Cabernet producers.

Did we say it’s 70% from THE Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard?!

Dark as a tar pit in the glass, it sucks you in like one too. As Jeb says it has “incredibly sexy style” as it could not have been said better. Black currants, black cherry reduction, blackberry with nutmeg, vanilla crème, and some wild spicy mesquite type notes come bubbling to the surface too. There’s something truly unique and different about this wine. Hard to pin down exactly, but it’s unlike anything you have.

For nearly the same price that others are selling their HALF bottles, you can get a full 750 from us. But our allocation was ultra-limited, so please move quickly.

94 Points – Jeb Dunnuck

“In addition to the single vineyard releases, this estate also releases a more value-priced Cabernet. The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Double Diamond (which is still 70% To Kalon) offers a forward, medium to full-bodied, incredibly sexy style as well as classy notes of cassis, tobacco, incense, orange blossom, and flowers. Readers looking for a touch of that Schrader magic at a slightly more affordable price are going to love this beauty. It’s already drinking nicely, and I see no need to delay gratification.”
