2013 Tenuta Polvaro Lison-Pramaggiore Cabernet Sauvignon 750ML for $19/bottle (or FREE for first time buyers!) but only 0.82% of the offer, ie 99%+ are UPGRADES!!
Winemaker Notes: Our Cabernet Sauvignon is full-bodied and dry with a unique elegance and well-balanced depth. It has a deep ruby color with magenta hues, complemented by aromas of blackberry, blueberry, and dried herbs and spices. It is lush and softly smoky on the palate with notes of lingering fruit, sweet licorice, and fresh vanilla. Ideal with duck and veal, as well as an array of cheeses and chocolates.
This is what you might be upgraded to:
2007 Hundred Acre Summer's Block Ancient Way Barossa Valley Shiraz 750ML valued at $250/bottle at the winery (only 0.14% of the offered bottles)
Accolades: 93 pts.- Vinous: “Inky purple. Superripe aromas of cassis, cherry preserves and dark chocolate, with complicating notes of licorice and mint. Densely packed and chewy, offering palate-coating black and blue fruit flavors that show serious depth and building sweetness. A hint of smoked meat comes up on the long, clinging finish, which is framed by broad, pliant tannins.”
Winemaker Notes: The Ancient Way is no ordinary vineyard. Rising to the top of a hill overlooking Greenock Creek Winery, it presides over some of the finest vineyards in all of Australia; it is in the core of what they call the Golden Mile. It is the ancient gateway to this valley and the most beautiful countryside that one could hope to see. The land itself is one of the oldest vineyard sites in the country." From Brett Anderson at robbreport.com: "With the assistance of vineyard manager Jim Barbour and winemaking consultant Philippe Melka, investment banker Jayson Woodbridge introduced his first wine in 2000, a Cabernet Sauvignon under the Hundred Acre label in Napa Valley. A lover of Australian Shiraz, he later decided to produce his own version. The 2007 Ancient Way is robust yet elegant with flavors of wild berry and licorice.
or maybe this bottle?
2007 Whitehall Lane Leonardini Vineyard St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon 750ML valued at $150/bottle at the winery (only 3.28% of the offered bottles)
Winemaker Notes: The Leonardini Vineyard is located on the western side of the Napa Valley floor at the southern edge of the town of St. Helena. This gravelly 14-acre vineyard is planted primarily to Cabernet Sauvignon. The fruit was hand sorted and fermented in a temperature controlled tank for 14 days. The pressed wine was aged separately from the free-run juice and both lots were aged in 100% French oak cooperage. After 15 months in barrel, a small portion of pressed wine was added back into the free-run and this final lot was aged an additional 12 months. This classic wine can be enjoyed now but will also age gracefully through 2027.
Other bottle upgrades ranges $21-53/bottle value.
Good luck if participating!
