Napa Cab is on the menu today! Served up just how you like it - big, ripe, chock full of flavor.

At over 60% OFF its priced like getting a Tomahawk steak for a happy-hour snack!

$55 OFF! That means this $90 Cabernet clocks in at $35. And let me tell you, it drinks like many $100+ examples out there. Tastes like a solid mid-90s scorer for us with upside potential over a decade. But hey, that’s just like our opinion man.

Hugely popular, Calculated Risk is by winemaker Dwight Bonewell and the same team of Grand Napa & Heir Apparent. If you’ve had any of those wines, you have a framework of what to expect.

Chock full of ripe, sweet fruit. Expansive and round. Chosen from the best barrels, it’s all pumped full of deep blackberry, creme de cassis, dried cherries, roasted espresso, and crushed violets, topped off with dust cocoa. A big smooch of vanilla from new French oak rounds it out and gives it that kiss, a perfect complement to the bold, ripe fruit. Still youthful, and decidedly primary, it has a great long life ahead.

Jeb Dunnuck loved the previous vintage but has yet to taste this, bet he’d repeat that “it’s nicely balanced and a charming, undeniably delicious wine.” 2018 and 2019 were similarly glorious vintages and we find 2019s even more loveable from the get-go.

Oh, and these “Barrel Selection” Cabs are from Grand Napa and Heir Apparent’s top-notch sources atop Diamond Mountain, Mt. Veeder, Spring Mountain, and Atlas Peak, along with prime valley floor sites in Oakville and Rutherford. Consider it a Greatest Hits compilation of Napa Valley!

Just under 8 barrels were selected in 2019, and we have but a fraction of that. You won’t find this in the wild very often. And surely not at THIS price.
