您开始问聚会上的其他人在哪里买酒,但突然,每个人都必须回到懒散的人身上。亚搏电竞好吧,只要等到您邀请他们参加自己的烧烤,然后拔出一个劳拉(Laurea)的案例,或者新镇,戈德尼(Goldeneye),浮士德(Faust)和康奈尔(Cornell),以及其他许多其他人,直到您找到了这一清单。

It's time to be in the know. Most of these bottles are pricey, some are not-as-pricy, and all are incredible wines that are enjoyable now and will age gracefully in, yes, a big-ass cellar for years to come. Here are 12 wines that serious collectors wish you wouldn't buy.

2017 Kings Carey Wines Grenache Sta. Rita Hills Santa Barbara County ($34)

If you've had cult-favorite Liquid Farm, James Sparks' day job, you know he's got a gift for crafting utterly fresh, pure-fruited黑比诺和Chardonnay. In 2014, he debuted his own Kings Carey label and lent his Midas touch to Grenache grapes from Spear Vineyards, an organically-farmed site in the Sta. Rita Hills AVA. Sparks' Grenache bottling will become an instant-favorite after the first sip. Collectors hoard it because it is a sheer joy to drink—it should cost twice the price. The 2017 is profoundly layered, showing a beautiful lucid, vibrant, and shimmering ruby red color, and revealing bright cherry and scorched wild crushed herb notes, complemented by roasted coffee bean, orange zest, and juicy, just-picked wild strawberry fruit leading to a long mineral finish.

2017 Boich Family Cellar NVS Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley ($125)

Founder John Boich has amassed an envious投资组合的葡萄酒,t亚搏电竞hrough an allocation-only model, from some of Napa's leadingvineyards, like To Kalon, Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper, and Beckstoffer Georges III. His winemaker, Jeff Ames, is no stranger to fans already collecting bottles from Tor and Rudius, his other gigs. This 2017 NVS has pitted collector against collector in a race to obtain an allocation. If any bottles do remain after their official release, they're made available to people not on the list—first come, first served, until sold out. Aromas of cookies and cream and blackberry and black cherry liqueur, with crème de cassis nuances, graphite, and purple florals; it's broad and mouth-filling with satiny French oak tannins so precisely integrated you'd be wise to mistake this for a French First Growth.

信用:由牛顿葡萄园提供

2016牛顿赤霞珠春季纳帕谷(210美元)

牛顿由彼得·牛顿(Peter Newton)和苏华(Su Hua)于1977年创立,毫无疑问是纳帕春山区的皇冠上的珠宝。加利福尼亚最伟大的酿酒师 - 里克·福尔曼(Ric Form亚搏电竞an),约翰·孔斯加德(John Kongsgaard),安迪·埃里克森(Andy Erickson),亚伦·波特(Aaron Pott)和让·霍夫利格(Jean Hoefliger),制作了这些葡萄酒。今天,阿尔贝托·比安奇(Alberto Bianchi)掌舵。尽管酿酒厂和理由在亚搏电竞玻璃火房地产总监让·巴蒂斯特(Jean-Baptiste Rivail)表示,牛顿所有者LVMH支持恢复庄园。最重要的是,酿酒厂以前的大部分年份在山谷地板上的温亚搏电竞度控制储存中都是安全的。而且,这款2016年的赤霞珠(如果您能动手)提供了一个令人惊叹的快照,说明牛顿赤霞珠是一座葡萄酒的纪念碑,它可以绝对最好地肩伸出。亚搏电竞蓬勃发展的黑莓和山种植的野生草药从班级中升起,在味蕾上演变,在伯利和尘土飞扬的山丁宁,干燥的薄荷和碎的石墨,雪松香料,以及持续到下一口sip的效果。

2018 Goldeneye Ten Degrees Pinot Noir ($130)

If this 25-year-old Anderson Valley winery isn't on your radar yet, there's a good reason. Those who make the trek to Goldeneye through winding Northern California roads, often without cell service, to traipse around the estate gardens prefer to keep it a secret. Winemaker Katey Larwood has conquered the rustic, deeply-structured, heady-spice-driven qualities of Anderson Valley Pinot Noir with this bottling of Ten Degrees. Black and blue fruits notes find rustic earthy notes underscored by vivid, crunchy acidity, leading to a flourish of wildflowers and dried tea leaf notes on a long, supple, finish, culminating in pops of brandied cherry and cedar spices.

2018 Faust The Pact Cabernet Sauvignon Coombsville Napa Valley ($125)

Sure, $125 may not seem like a bargain, but considering that winemaker David Jelinek has produced Harlan ($1,400+) and Joseph Phelps ($220+), it's a steal. The best place to enjoy it, of course, is at the newly renovated Faust Haus in St. Helena (home of the old St. Clement winery). In the glass, the 2018 Pact reveals an inky red, glass staining color, with aromas of boysenberry, candied raspberry, and red cherry. Lofty purple floral notes emerge on the tight knit, textured palate, unfolding in black-fruited waves atop elongated tannins all gliding toward a salted dark chocolate finish. It's plain to see why Faust fans want to keep it all for themselves. Pro tip: Call the winery and ask to buy library bottles of the 2011 vintage because it is mind-blowing.

2018 Medlock Ames五十吨赤霞珠亚历山大山谷索诺玛(105美元)

You need to become a member of Medlock Ames to gain access to their exclusive wines, which you'll want to enjoy when you book an Olive Grove Experience at the winery in Healdsburg ($50 per person). It goes like this: You cozy up beneath a grove of olive trees with a picnic basket of local Sonoma cheeses, cured meats, fresh bread, chocolates, estate-grown olives, and jams from the winery's organically-certified gardens—and the member-exclusive Fifty Tons Cabernet Sauvignon. Founders Chris James and Ames Morison moved 50 tons of rock to restore terraces for the Cabernet that goes into this blue-and-black-fruited, silky-texture red. Take note: Jean Hoefliger of Alpha Omega fame began consulting with the 2019 vintage, which means these small production wines are going to fly out the door even faster than before.

2018 Las Jaras Wines Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma Mountain ($70)

喜剧天才Eric Wareheim是Las Jaras的50/50合作伙伴,与酿酒师Joel Burt一起,蒂姆和埃里克(Tim)亚搏电竞和埃里克(Eric)的歌迷每年都会抢购这些葡萄酒。这就是为什么伯特(Burt)面对所有“认真”葡萄酒爱好者面临挑战:请尝试分配,以便您可以看到葡萄酒有多棒。亚搏电竞考虑到Burt和Wareheim不拥有酿酒厂并采购所有葡萄(主要来自Mendocino County)亚搏电竞,它给了他们很大的灵活性来做一些非常酷的事情,例如100%的葡萄园签订合同并要求它符合他们严格的标准。如今,Burt几乎没有含硫的添加几乎没有少量干预。而且,他具有疯狂的技巧,如“有力,怪异和疯狂的葡萄酒”,例如Superbloom(一种由七种不同的葡萄制成的碳粉红色葡萄酒),亚搏电竞或者从索诺玛山(Sonoma Mountain)出现的这款新鲜且结构化的100%赤霞珠 - 向前看低酒精,加利福尼亚过去的葡萄酒更加约束。亚搏电竞带有充足的红色和黑色水果香气,富有的转向地球,黑巧克力和头顶的紫色花朵。

2018 CIRQ Russian River Valley Pinot Noir ($150)

认识任何设法分配迈克尔·布朗(Michael Browne)的CIRQ葡萄酒的人,他们很乐意分享一瓶。亚搏电竞但是问问如何进入列表,他们会分散您的注意力:“哦,看,一个鹌鹑家庭!”布朗当然是科斯塔·布朗(Kosta Browne)的名声和CIRQ的迈克尔·布朗(Michael Browne)是他的第二幕,以及新发布的雪佛兰(Chev)(一种广阔的地区葡萄酒,也非常值得寻求)。亚搏电竞这两个标签都少量制作,将在俄罗斯河谷中心的布朗的新庄园下安置,并计划于今年开放。进入列表!同时,他的新出版别针ot Rocksbook is在Audible上可用(威廉·沙特纳(William Shatner)做叙事)。这款2018年俄罗斯河黑皮诺只有950箱,它提供了蜜饯的樱桃香气,并在大雨,紫罗兰,黑松露和多汁的浓郁的红木森林中走过茂密的红木森林和松香料。

2016 Lang & Reed Two-Fourteen Cabernet Franc Napa Valley ($85)

亚搏电竞酿酒师约翰·斯库普尼(John Skupny)喜欢告诉人们他不能种植番茄以挽救生命。我正在打电话给BS。不过,中西部的移植肯定可以起作用葡萄园。斯库普尼(Skupny)出生于底特律,他的父亲在福特工作,这意味着一家人在他的青年时代四处走动。他在1970年代在堪萨斯城的白盘餐厅现场发现了自己的立足点,每天晚上,桌子上都用法式和加利福尼亚顶级葡萄酒染色。亚搏电竞被葡萄酒虫咬伤,他最终与妻子亚搏电竞特蕾西(Tracey)降落在纳帕(Napa)。在与一系列图标合作之后,从鲍勃·特林切罗(Bob Trinchero)和查克·瓦格纳(Chuck Wagner)到弗朗西斯·福特·科波拉(Francis Ford Coppola),1996年,他首次亮相了兰格·里德(Lang&Reed),唯一的重点是赤霞珠。Skupny说:“我帮助许多人制作和出售高端纳帕赤霞珠。”“我对自己过于重视自己感到谨慎,而赤霞珠则更加平坦。”尽管如此,他的赤霞珠还是很认真的,而且非常像红色勃艮第精美的年龄。 This is the tenth vintage of Two-Fourteen, and what a beauty. Lifted and juicy red berry fruit, with deep earthy notes, atop a core of elegant acidity and feathery tannins making this a wonderful addition to just about any meal.

2017 Crescere Pinot Noir Platt葡萄园索诺玛海岸($ 120)

2003年种植,普拉特葡萄园位于五英里from the Pacific Ocean in Sonoma and has long been a source of world-class grapes for iconic producers like Ramey, Littorai, and Red Car. When Crescere founder Joe Reynoso got his hands on a few tons, he knew just what to do. This savvy son of a Mexican migrant worker from the Central Coast hired菲利普·梅尔卡(Philippe Melka)当他在2016年推出自己的标签时。这只是第二个版本,并谈论了绝对的震惊者。从一个明显的瓶子里,有一个令人惊讶的,几乎是半透明的红宝石色,以及丁香和血橙,肉桂香料和多汁的Bing樱桃,葡萄柚皮和羽毛状的柔软的单宁。雷诺索说:“品种典型性,现场特异性,水果的纯度和精力充沛的能量”是您对他的葡萄酒的期望。亚搏电竞这个黑比诺证明了这一点。另外,仅生产45例。
