Wines worth paying attention to.
That's what Italics is all about.
The Italics portfolio offers tasters the opportunity to experience the breadth of Bordeaux varietals that grow on our Coombsville estate. But our ambition doesn't end at our property line; we also produce Appellations, a wine blended with fruit from each of Napa Valley's AVAs. Oakville, Rutherford, St. Helena... Spring, Diamond and Howell Mountain — they're all represented in this unorthodox and deeply satisfying wine.
In seeking out vineyard sources for this wine, we sometimes find a parcel that's especially well-farmed for the vintage. When we can, we take a little more than we need for our blend and bottle it separately. This wine we call One of Sixteen. But really it's one of a kind.
Having said all that, we should probably manage your expectations. There's isn't a lot to go around. Our highest volume wine, our estate Cabernet, is about 500 cases. Everything else is minuscule — two to ten barrel's worth at the most. These wines we allocate to our members who have the good sense to snatch them up as they're offered. So when you see a wine without a "buy it now" button, you'll know why. Should your curiosity get the best of you, you're welcome to join our club. We'd be thrilled to have you.
