Vintage from the Vault Vol. 7Magnums and A Love Supreme

When you’re a collector, whether it’s wine, records, baseball cards, or
Pokémon, the most important factor driving your collection is
timelessness. You want the things you’ve collected to still mean
something when you come back to them years down the road. You want
value—sensory or sentimental. (Financial value? Selling is for
quitters…)
Ten years in, I rarely spend time alone in the Tasting House anymore,
but when I do there are just a few records I want to spin. A Love
Supreme is on top of that stack. Sixty years after it was released, this
music is as fresh and vibrant as it was on December 9th, 1964, when
Coltrane, McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, and Elvin Jones sat down and
recorded it.
When the team suggested my (not so) secret Tasting House jazz therapy
for this Vintage from the Vault, I knew the wines had to capture some of
the timelessness of Coltrane’s masterpiece. My mind went to the
ageabilty of magnums and of the 2018 and 2019 vintages.
This Vintage from the Vault is an ode to timelessness. Three reds, all in magnum, all built to age and for just $300.


2018 Severson Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon - Located
on a vast colluvial apron in southwest Sonoma Valley, Severson is rocky,
well-drained, and gets some of our highest daytime highs and lowest
nighttime lows. Add in the structured, slow-ripening wine of 2018 and we
have the perfect recipe for a classically styled, age-worthy Cabernet.


2018 Dos Limones Zinfandel - Dos Limones, with sunny
mornings and cooler afternoons, always produces Zin with restraint. This
site on Sonoma Mountain, the unique combination of varieties spread
about, and the 2018 vintage have created a wine that holds the fruit of
the Zinfandel in a suspension of savory, earth, and spice.


2019 Sonoma Valley Cabernet Sauvignon - Two vineyards
sharing the qualities we always look for in Cab sites: rocky,
well-drained soils. The goal is a pure expression of Sonoma Cabernet.
