Mount up Ops, because we have a real HUMDINGER today.

A flagship offering from one of Napa’s most pedigreed wineries! From a vineyard planted well over a century ago! A heavyweight Napa Cab, from the near-perfect 2016 vintage - at a FULL $100 OFF! 96 points too!

Heck, you’d have to pay a $120 tasting fee just to try it at the winery! Or you can save the airfare, gas, and hotel. Just kick back at your computer with your cozy slippers on, and snag some for a cool $75.

Got some? Good, let’s get to the good stuff…

Burgess is as real as it gets in Napa. For 150 years they’ve been farming the slopes of Howell Mountain and making single vineyard Cabernet since the 1800s. It was officially founded in 1972 by Tom Burgess, but after the winery sadly burned in the 2020 fires it sold to the current Heitz owners. In 2023 they reopened on the valley floor at Luna Winery’s old location. With the sale came a rebranding and the opportunity to score a few cases of their previous vintages at a breakneck price.

Antonio Galloni’s Vinous has the back story, “CEO Carlton McCoy and winemaker Meghan Zobeck have breathed new life into Burgess… Sorenson Vineyard emerges from the oldest vines on the Howell Mountain property, planted between the early 1980s and early 1990s, and is named after Bill Sorenson, the first winemaker at Burgess.”

This is as real as Napa Cab gets. A barrel selection from the oldest vines in Sorenson’s, an instant classic, with monstrous structure, ample acidity, and firm tannins holding it together. My oh my… dusty violets, crushed ripe plums, crushed blackberry, old cigar box, and worn leather. Serious stuff, sure to impress, and built to last! For this Reserve Jeb Dunnuck once wrote “while it’s twice the price of the base cuvée, you do certainly get more wine” but he meant that without the massive $100 OFF today!

Can’t guarantee this will last long… stake your claim while it’s here.

96 Points, Cellar Selection – Wine Enthusiast

“Generous, spicy and warm, this wine begs to be consumed now but has the stuffing for mid-term aging as well. Enticing mint, cedar and potpourri aromas lead to rich, inviting dark plums and black currants on the palate, where ample soft tannins lend a velvety texture. Best through 2033.”
