Fetters Springs is that rarest of beasts — a lusciously ripe, silky-smooth Pinot Noir that doesn’t break the bank. But you only need to look at the pedigree to see why.

This exclusive new release is from the Sebastiani family (long a byword for quality and value). While they’re more often associated with Sonoma, here they head south to the Central Coast — home to some of California’s most sought-after Pinot releases.

What impressed us most was the seductively ripe fruit (a hallmark of 2012) … plum, blackberry, raspberry.

Classic notes of cola too. This is pure, juicy Pinot and it’s priced for pouring generously this spring and summer.

Limited cases at today’s launch price — don’t miss out.

California’s Glorious 2012s Fine Napa Cabernet and Chardonnay, silky Pinot Noir and more “The best vintage in many years,” raves Wine Enthusiast‘s West Coast critic Steve Heimoff of 2012. Now enjoy some of our top finds for JUST $15 each.

Robert Parker says 2012 “looks spectacular” for Napa’s classic reds — and Illustrious Napa Cabernet will show you why. The reds in other top regions are equally delicious, as you’ll taste with Lyeth Estate’s Sonoma Reserve, a blackberry-laden, limitedrelease, proprietary red and a velvety NEW Pinot Noir (see page 3 for details).

Whites also excelled in 2012. You’ll have two fine Chardonnays: a barrelaged Napa beauty and citrus-packed gem sent by 12-time ‘Winery of the Year’ DeLoach. It only gets better with two mouthwatering, single-vineyard standouts: a NEW Clarksburg Viognier exclusive and a tongue-tingling Sauvignon Blanc from Sonoma’s premium Dry Creek Valley.

Blockbuster Napa Cab A ‘friends-only’ deal from an iconic Napa estate

SAVE

$77

Napa Valley is home to some of the finest Cabernet in the world. And the 2012s are “filled with oodles of ripe fruit, exceptional purity and fleshy, succulent, mouthfilling, crowd-pleasing personalities” (Parker). This stunning 2012 is the result of a hush-hush deal struck with a leading Napa estate. Their top Cabernet sells for $75-plus, and Illustrious is crafted from a small batch that didn’t quite make it into this coveted red. In Bordeaux, you’d call it their ‘second’ wine.

Already a fantastic value at its normal $28.99 price, today we’re offering it for JUST $22.50 a bottle as part of our California 2012 promotion.

You’ll enjoy all the hallmarks of a first-class Napa Cab: intense aromas of black currant, plum and spice, with broad flavors of black fruit plus lovely weight and structure on the palate. Light oak aging adds a subtle, toasty note to the long finish.

SAVE $77 on 12 bottles or $33 on six ­— but act quickly to secure yours at a very low price.

ULTRA-FRESH PINOT GRIGIO

DEEP, DARK MALBEC FAVORITE

Chile is renowned for its pure-fruited wines. And this barrel-aged Reserva from the historic Viña Tarapacá estate is surely one of the country’s best Chardonnay values. Packed with citrus fruit, plus a kiss of oak, it’s a real crowd-pleaser.

An exciting, single-estate release from the acclaimed Zonin family in cool, northeast Italy. Brimming with ripe lemon and pear flavors — with classic notes of almond — this is delicious on its own, or with lighter fare like chicken or salads.

This popular, barrel-aged Malbec hails from Argentina’s oldest estate and some of the world’s highest vineyards. “Attractive blackberry and plum fruits, with a supple palate and fine tannins,” said IWC judges last vintage. Wait till you taste the 2012.

Super Tuscan reds are some of northern Italy’s most renowned wines. This fruitladen Cabernet/Primitivo is a deliciously powerful challenger to the style, from the sunny south and three-time ‘Winery of the Year’ winner Angelo Maci. Pass the pasta.

Robert Parker was shocked when he tasted Reed Renaudin’s wines: “How can these wines be this good at these prices?” he exclaimed. Direct from Reed’s X Winery, here’s your own exclusive taste: chocolaty Syrah meets red-fruited Grenache.

Ludovic Roussillon’s small-estate gem wins major acclaim every vintage — and his fine 2011 took home a coveted Paris gold. What’s his secret? The 45-year-old, estate-grown Merlot vines lend extra depth to the spicy plum and cassis flavors.

From officially “excellent” 2010 (an honor given to just 14 vintages since 1925), Fernando Domingo’s barrel-aged Tempranillo brims with succulent berry. Try it with lamb.

A hit at Berliner Wein, Marco Barbanera’s red-fruited Riserva is “easy to like” (Jancis Robinson).

With 18 months in oak and years in bottle, it’s extra-complex, too.

The pioneering Zuccardi family’s Decanter-commended, made-forsteak red hits all the high notes: deep color, rich black fruit, velvety texture and a mountain-fresh edge.

Made to look and taste like a good red Burgundy, trophy winner Jean-Marc Sauboua’s cherry-ripe southern star is delightful with aged cheeses. Serve lightly chilled.

Premier Cru 2009 Burgundy & Gold-Medal Sancerre

Fine Premier Cru Burgundy “ The Giboulots have parcels of land in all the best sites in Savigny”— Hugh Johnson In Burgundy, it’s all about who you know and where they grow. Jean-Michel Giboulot is a name to “look out for” according to renowned Burgundy critic Clive Coates — and of all his “very good” Premier Cru Savignys, “the best is the Serpentières.”

In 2009 (a standout vintage), this south-facing, sun-trap vineyard yielded particularly ripe Pinot Noir. Just entering its prime, this is classic Savigny. Haunting fragrance of ripe red berries and spicy oak. Velvety, vibrant and long.

A smart buy in really smart Burgundy.

Gold-Medal Sancerre “ The benchmark for Sauvignon Blanc” — Hugh Johnson on Sancerre

In the Loire town of Sancerre, Sauvignon gets serious — intense, complex, piercingly pure and (of course) wonderfully refreshing. The finest come from small, family producers like Michel Thomas, who we’ve thirstily followed for years.

Sporting a Concours Mondial du Sauvignon gold, Michel’s 201 1 is tasting delicious at 30 months (the perfect age for Sancerre of this quality). This is the quintessential spring white — and delicious served alongside seafood, goat cheese salad or as an ice-cold aperitif.

Today’s mouthwatering price seals the deal.

200 Cases — One Chance to Order

Remarkable 2006 Pauillac Discovery From a vineyard next door to $600-a-bottle Château Latour (same winemakers too) This kind of wine simply doesn’t come onto the market every day — a mature, 8-year-old Pauillac direct from the cellar … and not just any cellar. Château Haut-Pauillac’s vineyards sit next door to (and once belonged to) legendary First Growth Latour, whose 2006 will cost you around $600. Yet, this barrelaged, cigar-box-scented classic is a very reasonable $46.67.

And the Latour comparisons don’t end here.

“ The most important father and son in wine of whom you have probably never heard.”

That’s Master of Wine Jancis Robinson on Jacques and Eric Boissenot.

Not only do they consult at Latour (and all five First Growths), they also make Haut-Pauillac for the Peyronie family. Lucky for us, Pascale Peyronie is good friends with our man in Bordeaux, Jean-Marc Sauboua.

When she needed cellar space for new wines, Jean-Marc pounced — you should too.

SAVE $47 on 12 Spring Essentials Top off your order with 30% savings This is the perfect way to stock up on rich reds and crisp whites that will be delicious this season (and beyond) — both on their own and with a wide variety of foods. In red, look forward to gold-medal, single-vineyard Rioja from officially ‘excellent’ 2010 that’s perfect with spring lamb. You’ll also enjoy a steak-ready, top-estate Malbec blend and Piedmont Dolcetto that’s really lovely when lightly chilled.

White highlights include a perennial ‘Best Buy’ Washington Riesling and super-fresh 2012 Chilean Sauvignon Blanc. Choose the full mixed collection, or take just the reds or whites (all come with the same great $47 savings).

Steakhouse Reds

Rich Steakhouse Reds Perfect for prime cuts and served today with a juicy $69 savings

What Makes a Great Steak Red? Look for the same qualities you’d get in a melt-in-your-mouth piece of beef: heft, depth of flavor, and luscious texture. Firm tannins and full body (that can both stand up to the weight of the meat) are also important.
