Sailing into their 2016 vintage, Fortune 1621 is a brand that’s become synonymous with value Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. With the Bump family at the helm, and a crew that include winemaker Brian Mox, who spent several vintages at Lewis Cellars, Fortune 1621 is clearly a voyage worth taking.

Your Price: $29.99/btl
Some of my favorite wine discoveries are those that naturally go on to sell hundreds of cases in just a couple vintages. It’s a concrete affirmation proving that what we felt when we first tasted the wine resonated and was felt by almost everyone who tries it. Sailor’s Grave’s Napa Valley Cabernet did just that. And with its origins in Yountville, Oakville and Chiles Valley, combined with a price-point that makes you smile, it was the quality of the wine that propelled constant re-orders… to the tune of several hundred cases sold in only 2 vintages.

Retails at: $35.00/btl
Your Price: $29.99/btl
One of my favorite results that comes from tasting a new wine, is one that makes me do a double-take simply because the taste exceeds my expectations for the price. The 2015 Fisticuffs Napa Valley Cabernet made me do just that. Performing well above its weight class for value Napa Cabernet, this undisputed champion hailing from Napa Valley dances inside a tightly wound core, threaded with chocolate covered cherries, blackcurrants, unground coffee bean and cedar spice.
