What a day!

If one Robert Craig wine excites you, get ready to hold back the tears because what’s better than ONE wine from the Craig crew!? Two wines! And this one hits all the right notes, claiming 95 points and clocking in with an even bigger discount!

When Elton Slone isn’t crushing rides on Mt. Tam (ahem…invite please if you’re reading this!!) he’s apparently hosting tastings and making some kick-ass wine up on Howell Mountain.

True insiders know Robert Craig crushes it. If there was a King of the Mountain Cabernet award, Robert Craig would be a front-runner. From their winery at the very top of Howell Mountain (2,300 feet to be exact) they have been cranking out blockbuster wines since the early 90s, focusing almost exclusively on hillside and mountain fruit sourced from their estate vineyard and also from Mount Veeder, Diamond Mountain, and Spring Mountain, like this one. They have a rabid following, a devoted family of fans who scoop their releases year in, year out. So, we were beyond THRILLED to get our hands on ANYTHING from them.

The wine itself? Classic Spring Mountain Cabernet just like you like it! Big and chewy tannins with loads fruit. This is so beautifully structured too, it will absolutely age for decades. Cedar, dark toast and a mélange of herbs make this exactly what you Napa Cab lovers CRAVE!

A true rabid following here so this 46% off retail pricing is going to cause some serious drooling. Act fast because this one likely won’t last the hour!

95 Points – James Suckling “This is a very typical cabernet from Spring Mountain with lightly chewy tannins and lots of black fruit, such as black cherries and currants, as well as some hot stone and mint. It’s long and persistent, too. One for the cellar. Try after 2023.”
