100 Point Winemaker Jesse Katz is one of the most exciting and accomplished winemakers in the business. The young genius who is also behind Aperture and Devil Proof was the first winemaker to make the Forbes '30 under 30' list and was the talk of the wine world when he broke the world’s record for crafting the highest-priced wine ever sold at auction to date. That winning bid was $1 million for a 6-liter bottle of The Setting Glass Slipper Cabernet Sauvignon. Jesse’s experience spans 19 harvests at internationally acclaimed wineries such as Chateau Petrus and Screaming Eagle, so his other-worldly abilities as a pace-setting winemaker are beyond question. The 98 Point 2022 The Setting Alexander Valley Cab comes from the stunning old-vine vineyard of SJ Ranch at the top of Chalk Hill Road, sitting directly next to the illustrious Verite in the furthest southeast corner of Alexander Valley. The terroir produces fruit of sublime quality, enabling Jesse to produce a wine of staggering depth and breadth. This is the perfect opportunity to see what all the fuss is about. Believe the hype.
98 Points Jeb Dunnuck.com - "The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley comes from one of the coldest sites from which they farm Cabernet Sauvignon. A dark red color, the wine is forward with the blue-fruited highlights and shining with notes of juniper, pine, violets, forest floor, and fresh herbs. It's long, elegant, and focused on the palate, with a more linear feel, an even plushness of tannins, and redcurrants, cassis, and vanilla shining through to the long finish! Drink 2025-2050." AF
