Far Mountain Amotus Cabernet Sauvignon 2023
Moon Mountain District
November 02, 2026 - Far Mountain Amotus Cabernet Sauvignon is the pinnacle expression of the Alta Vista Vineyard in Moon Mountain, sourced from its oldest, dry-farmed vines planted in 1971. Grown in a dramatic south-facing amphitheater of volcanic basalt and fractured granite, the site’s varied exposures and elevations yield a wine of extraordinary depth and complexity. Only the top 7 barrels are selected for Amotus, which ages 12 months in barrel and another year in foudre. The result is a powerful, finely structured Cabernet with precision, texture, and a clear sense of place.

Frog’s Leap Winery Zinfandel 2023
St. Helena
October 29, 2026 - Frog's Leap Zinfandel is a deliberate and deeply considered departure from the overripe style that dominated the category for decades. Inspired by California's legendary old-vine field blend tradition, this wine draws its power from elegance and structure rather than alcohol, with co-fermented Petite Sirah and Carignane adding backbone and complexity.
James Suckling - June 26, 2025 Quite bold and structured, this red has a good bite of tannin to counterbalance the ripe, opulent blackberry and raspberry flavors. A full body also brings dark cherry, dried blueberry,…
Wine Advocate - "Saint Helena-sourced and co-fermented with a decent amount of Petite Sirah and Carignan, the 2023 Zinfandel matured in oak, but only about 5% of the volume was in new barrels.…
