1.5L (3) Groth Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve vertical 2012, 2013, 2014 and a framed and signed edition of 'Ben's Tractor', a limited edition, original work of art by Suzanne Groth. 

The 2014 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is big and lush with huge gobs of fruit in the aroma and flavor.  The texture of the wine is soft and supple, typical of Cabernet Sauvignons grown in the Oakville AVA. The sweet vanilla character derived from 22 months in the barrels blends well with the black cherry and blackberry flavors and aromas of the wine.

The 2013 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon has clean, rich aromas with great complexity; it shows prominent notes of cedar, dried cherries and sweet vanilla along with hints of warm summer blackberries, rips dark plum, forest humus and a touch of thyme. The flavors open with a smooth entry and build quickly with loads of fine grain tannins giving a very broad mouthfeel. All this structure is backed up with a nice firm acidity, bright red currant and rips dark cherry fruit, as well as more subtle impressions of cocoa, oak spice and savory herbs.

The 2012 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is described as "Perfect, Classic, Abundant -- it is one for the ages!"  

750ml (4) Domaine Curry 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon, in a wood box.

Domaine Curry is a partnership between Ayesha and her sister-in-law, Sydel Curry.  Sydel is Warriors basketball star Stephen Curry's little sister. The Curry women have teamed up with John Schwartz of Napa's Coup de Foudre winery.  Domaine Curry 2016 yielded a mere 400 cases, and each allocation is limited to one 4-pack, presented in a one-of-a-kind wood box inscribed with the word "Valor".  Domaine Curry 2016 is big, bold and balanced...ready to enjoy this fall and well into the future.  

5L Reynolds Family Winery 2009 Estate Cabernet.

Full-bodied and powerful, yet intriguingly smooth, this Reserve Cabernet emulates classic Stag's Leap District characteristics known as, "the iron fist in the velvet glove!" Since winemaking is 60% the fruit you are working with and 40% the mad scientist in the lab, Steve Reynolds once again wows us with his talents. Each bottle of this extraordinary wine is labeled with a handpicked white mustard flower from the Reynolds estate, hand pressed and labeled individually by hand.  This wine and everything about it is truly special!

750ml (3) Brother Timothy Wine 2012, 2013 and 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon

This Brother Timothy Cabernet Sauvignon is truly a special wine.  Made from grapes grown at Mont La Salle, this estate reserve Cabernet is handmade by Dave Guffy, The Hess Collection's celebrated winemaker, with grapes from the two acre Mont La Salle Vineyard on Mt. Veeder in Napa.  Less than 275 cases are produced each year and currently all vintages are sold out.  Wine Spectator described this wine as "...a special bottle of cabernet, not only because of the story of Brother Timothy and that it's providing charity for at risk children; it's special because it's small production, hard to find and very good wine, to top it off."

750ml (4) Miracle Hill Vineyards four-year vertical Sonoma Valley Syrah.

This gorgeous, four-bottle vertical of Miracle Hill Syrah is made from grapes grown in the Lovall Valley Hills. These wines are from premium small lots and only 200 cases are produced each year. The 2012 vintage was selected as one of the top ten wines poured at the San Francisco Vintners Marketplace.  These impressive Syrahs are lush and full bodied with gobs of blackberry fruit and plenty of structure to last for a decade or more.

Six bottles: 750ml (2) Hollywood and Vine "2480" 2014 Chardonnay, 750ml (2) Reynolds Family 2015 Chardonnay, and 750ml (2) Beringer 2016 Chardonnay

750ml (2) Hollywood and Vine Cellars "2480" 2014 Chardonnay.  This ripe, aromatic Chardonnay has floral notes that are supported by a few base notes of toasty vanilla and fresh lees. On the palate, the wine shows integrated, complex flavors of green apple, apricot, a touch of mineral character and a bright, crisp finish which highlights the citrus notes.

750ml (2) Reynolds Family 2015 Chardonnay.  Showcasing what a truly hand-crafted Chardonnay should be, this wine will convert the ABC (Anything But Chardonnay) drinkers of the world! 

750ml (2) Beringer Wine Estates 2016 Chardonnay.  A wonderfully approachable and refreshing wine full of lush fruit flavors and aromas.  The bright citrus perfectly offsets the honeyed apricot, culminating in a smooth, delicious wine with a lasting finish.

750ml Beringer 2016 Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon

Beringer Private Reserve represents the pinnacle of the Beringer wine portfolio. This flagship wine reflects the best of the 2016 vintage and highlights how extraordinary Napa Valley Cabernet is in its purest form.

750ml Georges de Latour Private Reserve 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon

The superb 2015 vintage gave the 2015 Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon its unctuous fruit character and dense structure.  Hugely complex, the wine reveals a broad spectrum of briar blackberry, black cherry and currant notes, with nuances of violet and bittersweet chocolate.  Muscular tannins support the plush, expansive palate, while impeccably balanced acidity adds vibrancy.

1.5L Laird Family Estate 2012 Jillian's Blend

This Left Bank Bordeaux-style blend with a twist of Rhone is structured, but easy to drink. A sweet nose of butterscotch leads to a tornado of flavors including homemade blackberry pie and eucalyptus.  With a rich body and moderate tannins this will be a show stopper for years to come.

This extraordinary twelve bottle wine lot was donated from the wine cellars and collections of generous faculty and staff members of Justin-Siena.
