5+1 100-point Winemaker Set 750 ml

We know the right people in the wine industry. No, we’re not talking about make-or-break critics. Or celebrity sommeliers. We’re talking about the world’s best winemakers. Private collectors know them — and so do Michelin-star restaurants. But until now, that was it. We’re here to make an introduction. To welcome you to the universe of truly profound wine.

We’ve included a bottle of Screaming Eagle alum, Andy Erickson’s stunning Sauvignon Blanc on us.

100-point Winemaker Set Includes:

 2x 2014 Teeter Totter Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

Out of 20,000 wines tasted, only 40 wines made the cut for our Store. And of those, the 2014 Teeter-Totter Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is our #1 hottest, client-favorite wine — a stunning value from Wine Spectator’s 2014 “dream vintage.” Six-time 100-point winemaker Benoit Touquette leveraged his network of exceptional vineyard sources from Yountville, St. Helena, Pritchard Hill, and Calistoga to create a Cabernet that could stand shoulder to shoulder with high-priced, high-profile Napa counterparts — for under $100. True to form, he did it with the release of Teeter-Totter at just $55 per bottle. Robert Parker called this opulent, lip-smacking, black-fruited gem “heady, round” and “hedonistic.” A few prominent wine directors of 3-Michelin-starred restaurants have their allocation. In-the-know collectors have already laid down cases in their cellars. Don’t be one of those who miss out.  

2x 2015 Moone-Tsai Vineyards Chardonnay Charles Heintz Vineyard

Chardonnay collectors, take note. According to Robert Parker, the French-born Philippe Melka is one of the world’s top consulting winemakers, and the many 100-point scores earned by Melka wines back that up. His exacting winemaking skills have catapulted labels like Dominus, Hundred Acre, Bryant Family, Tusk, and Dana Estates onto the world’s wine stage. His Cabernet Sauvignon is the stuff of legend, but his artistry is on full display in the Moone-Tsai Heintz Vineyard Chardonnay, which has become a critical darling. Here’s your chance to lock into a rare Chardonnay dubbed “fabulous,” “gorgeous,” and “full of personality,” and sourced from a vineyard The Wine Advocate calls “one of the top sites in Sonoma” — a source for Littorai and Kosta Browne. Our only regret? Just 192 bottles of the 2015 Moone-Tsai Chardonnay will end up in a handful of lucky Wine Access clients’ hands.  

2x 2016 Arietta Quartet Sauvignon Blanc

*Includes one complimentary bonus bottle*

Collector alert. We have a truly rare, and nearly impossible to find wine from Arietta, crafted by 100-point winemaker Andy Erickson, formerly of Screaming Eagle. Arietta is one of the legendary Napa producers, with a cult following of mailing list clients and Sommeliers alike. Arietta’s wines grace the luminary wine lists of Michelin-starred restaurants like Per Se, The Modern, Jean-Georges, Blue Hill at Stone Barns, The French Laundry, and The Restaurant at Meadowood Napa Valley — just to name a few. Our own Sur Lucero, MS says, "I had the great fortune to showcase Arietta wines during my time on the floor at The French Laundry. I remember when they were released, they created a whole new category for white wine in Napa for us to utilize in our wine pairings. To say the release of this Quartet white, some 12 years later, is anything less than highly anticipated — would be an understatement!” The opportunity to be among those who gain access to this first release of Arietta’s captivating and layered Quartet Sauvignon Blanc is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
