| | | 2019 Chateau Latour: Four 100pt Scores. Benchmark Release on Pre-Arrival Now 100 JD | 100 Wine Independent | 100 Decanter | 100 Wine Palate | 99+ Wine Advocate | 99 Jane Anson
Not every estate gets to exist in its own category, but Latour has earned that distinction the hard way, over centuries. When this estate releases a wine, the market doesn't hedge or wait for consensus. It pays attention, and it moves.
For years, Latour has held back inventory, releasing wines only when the estate believed they were ready to show themselves properly. That patience is not a marketing posture. It is a philosophy, and the 2019 is the proof.
Jeb Dunnuck, 100 Points: "Another perfect wine... as prodigious as they come... flawless, balanced, structured... will evolve for 40 to 50 years."
Wine Independent, 100 Points: "Exquisitely constructed... a myriad of very fine layers... beautiful tension... finishing epically long."
Decanter, 100 Points: A monumental Pauillac. Blackcurrants, smoky tobacco, slate. A powerful, muscular structure built for the very long haul.
Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Palate, 100 Points: "Rockets out of the glass... cassis, plum preserves, dark chocolate... flamboyantly spicy, epically long."

| | | Rutherford Hill Merlot Napa Valley 2022 Wine Spectator's #2 Wine Value of the Year In Stock Now, 93pts & Only $31.98!
“Marking the first vintage for former winemaker Michael Coode, the 2022 is supple and elegantly structured. Coode fermented the juice in tanks, with twice-daily pump-overs, and then aged the wine for 14 months in a combination of new and used French oak.” - Wine Spectator
If you’ve ever driven the Silverado Trail up through Rutherford, you’ve probably seen the grand stone entrance to Rutherford Hill perched above the valley. Founded in 1972, the estate was an early champion of Merlot in Napa Valley at a time when Cabernet was the only game in town. The vision was simple but bold: bring Merlot into the conversation as a world-class variety, not just a blending partner. Over the years Rutherford Hill established itself as one of the benchmarks for Napa Merlot, with vineyard sourcing focused across Rutherfordand the surrounding hillsides, where well-drained soils and the afternoon sun coax depth and ripeness without excess weight.
