Not allowed around here cults

19/12/2008 post by: Marc Koppen

  I just blog post from the wine writer Steve Heimoff on "taxi" cult that my slightly raised his eyebrows.  It is, many other wine writers discuss how poor economy recently affect sales of high quality wine.  Many merchants , restaurateurs have written yet inviting consumers to buy wine, but not both offer more bottle as they were last year.  So what is the impact on the so-called "cult" Napa Valley cabs?There is a Web site called Slaked containing release dates of California cult wines (mainly the Cabs, but part of Pinots too), it now lists something like 60 cult taxis. it certainly has changed for 8-10 years ago, when there were really only a handful of true cult Cabernets, perhaps half-dozen. 

  What is truly dreadful is most of these are over 100 taxi cult bottle, with some like Harlan and screaming Eagle going for a few hundred dollars.  Who can buy these wines all our current economy?   Good question.  I have a suggestion, but put one of our largest taxi against each of those cabs and cult that you think is the better deal.Our Napa cab ($ 52) is a mixture of the two largest mountain vineyards on the peak Atlas, Stagecoach, Corbett on spring mountain worship-taxis from these vineyards sourced many it!Our other two taxis, vineyard designate any great vineyard Monte Rosso Sonoma Valley ($ 55), Kerem Moon two ($ 65) in the mountains west of Dry Creek Valley, Sonoma County, there are a lot of depth and character to pure flavors that reflect their terroir vineyard Cabernet. less than 500 cases of each one of them were produced; less than 200 for vineyard Moon two Cab. provide us with your questions and comments about these e.g. Cab cult!
