Reviews
Aromatic and distinctive, with rich notes of honeycomb, coconut oil and lanolin that give way to fresh apricot and mango flavors, freshened by a crisp jolt of acidity akin to a squeeze of lime juice. Despite the lush, refined flavors and smooth body, the finish is pure refreshment, lingering endlessly. Drink now. 1,065 cases made.

Lail Blueprint 6-pack
3 bottles of TRIPLE 93-POINT ‘17 Blueprint Sauvignon Blanc 3 bottles of 96-POINT (and V93) ‘16 Blueprint Cabernet
(the older brother 2016 J. Daniel Cabernet scored 100 points, FYI) Seriously, this is a MASSIVE no-brainer deal!
There’s too many reasons to buy this 6-pack (while it lasts). The 2016 Napa Valley Cabernet vintage, first of all --- the expressive, stylish, mouth-watering Sauvignon Blanc (“absolutely gorgeous...such a classy and polished wine...pure refreshment, lingering endlessly”), the blockbuster, colossally over-delivering 96-point Cabernet (As Antonio Galloni notes: “...a huge overachiever in its price range...Expressive, pliant and super-inviting, the 2016 has so much to offer...") the killer price of course...just GET it. IN STOCK, ready to ship, as long as we can make these last.
There is so much to say about the wonderful, fascinating and generous Robin Lail, her history in the Valley, and her winemaker Philippe Melka that we would need a REALLY long web page to pack it all in. Here’s a link to Wine Cellar Insider, which summarizes it well enough. I suspect most of you reading this are pretty well-informed from our many years of selling these incredible wines anyway, but just in case. Robin as a person is just a force of nature, and we are so proud to offer this today.
