DUE TO THEIR SIZE, WE CAN NOT ADD MAGNUMS TO LOCKERS. YOU MUST SHIP YOUR ORDER.

Double your pleasure, double your fun!

With Hawk & Horse Mags! Twice the pleasure. Two times the milliliters. Quite simply an IMMENSE Cab from all angles. Starting with the size. MAGNUMS, baby! And then the discount - 75% OFF, kids.

Over $200 per bottle savings!

The score? Rated 94 big points by The Tasting Panel. At a price to put on a long sold-out library stash unearthed exclusively for you, and us to continue to celebrate a decade and a half with. Drinks like a champ today, and for years to come, especially with the extra bottle development a magnum offers.

Now, for anyone new here, two things you need to understand about this wine.

First, the winemaker - Dr. Richard Peterson. Heard of him?

He literally wrote THE BOOK (award-winning autobiography called The Winemaker) on how to make cult wine before cult wine was a thing. If not, you’ve heard of Screaming Eagle and Heidi Barrett. Get this - before she came on board it was her dad, Dr. Peterson who led the first four vintages of Screaming Eagle into cult stardom. He had taken André Tchelistcheff’s post at Beaulieu Vineyards, helped develop Atlas Peak Vineyards, and presides over numerous institutions including the American Society for Enology & Viticulture, The Wine Institute, Society of Wine Educators, and American Institute-Wine & Food.

Talk about experienced!

Second, we have the Red Hills AVA.

A little-known (for now) region named for its red volcanic soils. It sits just north of Napa, in Lake County - about 10 miles north of Howell Mountain as the crow flies. Here grows some exceedingly high-quality Cabernet without the “Napa tax”. There’s good reason why visionaries such as Fred Schrader, Stéphane Derenoncourt, and Andy Beckstoffer have been quietly investing in vineyard land here. This gem comes from an 18-acre Demeter Certified Biodynamic® site perched at 2,200 feet elevation.

We sold the 2006 earlier this year, and this flashes a very similar style. At 15 years old you might think it’s on the way out, tired, and probably losing its fruit. WRONG. Especially out of a magnum. Like us 😊 and Tom Brady, it only seems to improve with time. There’s still a massive core of youthful black, blue, and darker red berries. Shaved baking chocolate, chalky blackberries, rhubarb pie, and sweet spices. With secondary nuances of summer blossoms, pencil-shavings, worn saddle leather, truffles, and scorched earth clinging to the edges of the fruit. It’s rich and expansive, with a mile-long finish.

Took on every last mag they’d share with us but was it enough? Doubt they will last long. You won’t find this on their website, or anywhere else. And for this price??

“Imagine violets and roses arising out of red volcanic soils: it happens in this dusty red. A garden of blueberry is not far behind. It ends on some daring, gritty tannins with a lemon peel edge. A rare breed.”
