The Golden Age

Hello Collectors,

I was recently curating a list of Cellar Trading wines and working on achieving the right balance to fill a storage client’s new custom-built home cellar. Sorting through our amazing inventory across all regions that we have for sale right now at Cellar Trading, I was struck by how this is probably the most compelling selection of California wines that we’ve had in stock in a while. From avant-garde Napa upstart Kinsman-Eades to perennial classics like Aubert, Hundred Acre and Vérité, this is truly the golden age of the Golden State.

Don’t miss those high-scoring Aubert bottlings – Aubert has become the standard-bearer for California chardonnay, and I absolutely love these wines; parcels of single-vineyard Bevan including the 100-pt’er 2018 Beckstoffer Dr. Crane; always-classic Dominus and Hundred Acre; Sloan (including the 100-pt 2002), a vertical of Scarecrow, Realm’s top cuvée, The Absurd, and Vérité (a personal favorite, especially in the assortment case). We are extremely choosy about what we source for Cellar Trading, and because we focus on the best California growers along with perfect provenance means that you can buy with confidence. You will notice that 19 of these have achieved 100 points – representing almost one-third of this list. Almost of these bottles are available now for shipping – so fill your own home cellar or have the wines sent directly to your UOVO storage account!
