Theyre talking about Anderson Conn Valley (ACV), whose Cabernets are some of the most consistently bestselling wines in Wine Access history. Theyre plush, saturated, luxurious, and already a steal at their SRPand theres no better introduction to them than the 2018, which winemaker Robert Hunt told us was in the pole position to be his favorite since 1994.

Absolutely gorgeous now, this smoothly textured, lavishly complex Cab is only going to get better with time, thanks to its perfect balance between acidity and tannins. From an estate hidden at the base of Howell Mountainrun with considerable gusto by Napa icon Todd Andersonits a bottle one happy five-star reviewer raved tastes like its more expensive big brothers!

Wine Advocate called Andersons vineyards an undeniable source of very complex and age-worthy wines, and in 2018, they produced another stone-cold classic.

Napa Valleys glorious 2018 vintage was declared picture-perfect by Wine Spectator, and in just a few years, all the hype surrounding it has been justified. We remember the long, ideal growing season and beautifully slow-paced harvest that year, which helped create ripe yet integrated wines like this ACV Cab.

Aged in French oak for 16 months, this is an opaque, chewy, and boisterous wine, showing all the dark fruit, savory herbs, and rich tannins that convinced Wine Advocate to declare that ACV represents the greatness of Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. We know our ACV diehards will be all over thisand its poised to make a few new fans as well.
