JUDD’S HILL!

Not one. Or two. Or three. But FOUR epic scores from this historic producer. We’ll be dropping each one throughout the day (schedule below so you can plan accordingly).

At around $95-$115 these sit alongside the very best Napa can offer. You would not be sad when this juice hits your lips. Even if you paid full price, plus tax, shipping, and a flight out to Napa to score some from the winery.

However, for WAY under $40 it feels almost criminal to let them into the wild.

They shame anything in their path at that price. And stand up to most anything in the upper echelon of high-scoring, triple-digit Napa reds.

At this price, you’re drinking like a local. Like a friend of the winery. A family member. Heck, I don’t know if even close friends and family can get a sniff of these wines at our price.

So, here’s how it will go down:

Right now, if you’re reading this, you’re seeing the 2019 Extended Barrel Age Cabernet Sauvignon. This will be around from 10am until 12pm. After this, the 2017 Founder’s Art Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon from noon until 3pm, and finally we’ll round it out with the 2017 Napa Valley Estate Cabernet Sauvignon for your late afternoon and evening pursuit.

With only 3,000 cases annual production this small family-run estate has little to go around, and we cherry picked some of the most prime lots from the samples that came our way.

Each one is special. The Finkelstein family has been growing grapes on the hillside vineyards of their 14-acre estate on the eastern edge of Napa since the 1970s. Their wines are ingrained in the DNA that makes Napa Valley Cabernet what it is today.

The Extended Barrel Age Cab is exactly what it sounds like - spending longer time raised in French Oak, it has a bit richer, warmer feel. It’s definitely the most extracted of the bunch, and more a full-throttle, pedal to the medal style Cab that shows more toasty oak wrapped around a core of dark red and black fruit. 2019 was another banner vintage in Napa, and this has all the hallmarks of an age-worthy Cabernet showing. Buckets of black currant, red raspberry whips, vanilla bean and cocoa nibs. Soft and round and smooth mouthfeel with nicely resolved tannins at 7 years…it’s a dream to drink.

This is just one of four selections that each show similar, yet distinct styles. Like Pokemon, you gotta collect them all! But do it fast because deals like this come with a Charizard-like elusiveness…
