Mission Codename Moderation who?

“Everything in moderation, including moderation.”

Oscar hasn’t seen what happens when Mica hits the website. Pure pandemonium! Moderation simply doesn’t exist for the throngs of thirst Operatives on the hunt for Mica. Easily one of our most popular Cabs EVER. And we’re back with more of the incredible 2021 vintage today.

At nearly 60% OFF? You could spend 2-3x the price to get a big shot Napa Cab that underperforms this.

One fateful day just a few years ago, Buccella landed on our site. And every time thereafter it flew off the virtual shelves. How many cases have come and gone? Thousands, probably.

From the flagship Cab to the Mixed Blacks, we’ve tasted all their glory. But NONE more popular than MICA.

About that 2021 vintage? Off. The. Meter.

“A fabulous vintage” per Vinous with “tremendous energy and finesse, savory intensity, aromatic explosiveness, and greater inner sweetness.”

Think of that assessment and line it up with your Buccella experiences. Are you still here?

Food & Wine says it all, “Buccella has swiftly become a top Napa Valley Cabernet producer… an icon, making some of the most sought-after wines, known for big, intense, classic Napa Cabs for clients like Scarecrow, which has a waiting list for the waiting list.”

Not even released yet to the mailing list! At $150 it will surely be a popular offering. But at what we’ve got it down to? The virtual stampede has already begun. Today you can stock up on “baby Buccella” at a price that is otherwise incomprehensible and implausible.

Some of you are old enough to remember when Buccella hit the scene 20 years ago. An OG cult wine that sells for $250 and up today. And the praise continued rolling in for the next two decades. Long made under the auspices of Celia Welch of Scarecrow fame, the project is now in the hands of another 100 point winemaker AND a Master Sommelier, Landon Donley. With tenure at Trinchero, past roles at Spottswoode, and Mollydooker, he’s a rising star in his own right and did everything right with this wine.

DECADENT. Opulent. Sit down when you taste it because your eyes will roll back into your head in pure ecstasy. Crushed blackberry, mocha latte, sweet pipe tobacco, violets, and crème de cassis just FLOWING as always. Wide, deep, and polished with signature toasty oak and a gorgeous mouthfeel. It puts the lush in plush. And some swerve in your curve. Utterly satisfying stuff, and nearly $100 OFF!!

By now you know the drill…
