Last minute gifts needed? Got a get-together you forgot about and need to make an impression? Just found out that present you were counting on isn't going to ship in time and need to pivot quick? We got you covered with an under the radar producer that's been a great source for high quality at some unexpectedly great prices for several vintages. There are more than a few higher end producers in Sonoma's Knights Valley (Peter Michael perhaps the best known) but the value for the dollar is this strong, and the wines do tend to offer a difference to their Napa neighbors. A little darker currant, a little more tannin and earthy structure, perhaps a little more acidity and less 'weight' which gives them some freshness. This is an offering that shows it all off, as well as a bit of added polish to the texture from having a bit of time in the bottle. The oak notes also drop away fairly quickly with a decant, making this a great one to enjoy with any upcoming festive meals.
