An entire Spring’s worth of negotiating domestic wine deals deals has turned into a situation where they all start showing up at the same time 😂
First world problems!
This is a special one though, as I used to be on the mailing list for Dutcher Crossing back when I first got into the wine business, and the winery was just getting going!
The winery has an unbelievable story, and it starts with the owner, Debra Mathy.
Originally from Wisconsin, she took a high school class trip to France, tasted wine for the first time in a way that meant something (they start ‘em early in France!), came home and told her father she was going to own a winery someday.
Then she did what we all (for the most part) end up doing: she got a real job. Debra became an elementary school teacher and life kinda went on its way.
Then her father was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma.
Knowing his personal time was limited, he told her not to wait any longer to chase her dreams. Don't wait for the right time, don’t wait for retirement. Go find your winery. He spent his final years helping her look. They traveled through Europe, then narrowing to Napa and Sonoma.
He died in late 2006.
Three months later, in March 2007, Debra closed on Dutcher Crossing in Dry Creek Valley. She'd cornered the founders at a Winter Wineland event that January and convinced them to sell a winery that wasn't even for sale. Escrow closed in 40 days.
She became the first single woman to own a winery in Dry Creek Valley. She was 40 years old, from Wisconsin, and she was very much not one of the good old boys.
She took over 35 acres and five wines. Today Dutcher Crossing farms 75 acres of estate vineyards, produces more than 30 wines across seven AVAs in Sonoma, Napa, and Mendocino, and has become one of the most decorated small producers in Sonoma County.
The two wines we have for you today are two of my favorites, and at the prices we are selling them for today, it is outright silly. For context, I paid more than this for these wines when I was in their wine club 20 years ago! The Proprietors Reserve in 2008 was $30!
First up, 2022 Cooney Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley
This is the flagship wine. A single-vineyard Cabernet from Alexander Valley, the appellation that gave us Silver Oak and Jordan and Vérité, and arguably the finest Cabernet ground in Sonoma County (although I know some people that may argue that point).
The winery sells this bottle on their website for $62 per bottle. (website is still on 2021 vintage) We can bring it to you for $24.99 and there are 112 cases available (when it is gone, it is gone).
The next wine? 2021 Proprietor's Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon.
This is one of their estate wines- and is every bit as big and rich as the Cooney.
The winery sells it on their website for $43 per bottle. We can bring it to you for $19.99 and we have 224 cases available
These are the lowest prices these wines have ever been offered for in the US (you guys know how we roll!)
I’m taking home a case of each…partly for nostalgia and partly because this is absolutely crazy Cabernet for the money.
First come, first served.
TGIF! Lets drink some great Cabernet this weekend, shall we?
