Mission Codename Lake Effect

Agent Red loves his Cab Franc. And today’s Two Jakes of Diamonds 2011 Two Jakes of Diamonds Lake County Cabernet Franc is right up his alley.

Today’s wine drinks well now with a little decanting, but with its fantastic acidity and structure, this wine will turn into a masterpiece with a few years in the cellar. Today’s wine has clear notes of cherry, cinnamon, and dried earth, without any hint of “green” flavors that can sometimes hinder the varietal. Instead, today’s wine has clear herbal and mineral notes that add a beautiful complexity to its profile.

Buy at least three bottles, so that you can try it in its youth, and also explore the wine as it matures over the coming years.

Here’s how WIA Works:

Over the next two weeks, we’ll revisit the TOP hits of 2024. Our favorite winemaker. The top Italian. A treasured cult selection, and the ever-popular most wanted Napa Cab.

Plus many more.

  • If you're in the Facebook group, check out the pinned post and please drop your favorites. If we can, we'll work in a special Operative requests day.
  • And yes, I know some of you are trying to exercise restraint, and we apologize. But it is the season of giving, and a case of wine for yourself is self care, right?
  • The discounts, as usual, will be steep and deep. Hopefully you'll find more than a few of your favorites from the past year. Every one of these wines has proven extremely popular so we encourage you to act fast and early as quantities are often even more limited the second time around.
  • As we near the Holidays and wrap up another great year we are as ALWAYS, ever grateful for your ongoing support. It's been an amazing year and we cannot wait to do it again in 2025.
