For the California Lover | 2018 Waterstone Cabernet Sauvignon | California | 95 SP | $34.95
Many of you are already familiar with Waterstone Cabernet Sauvignon. Over the past decade, Waterstone Winery has built a reputation for its top quality Napa Valley Cabernets. Part of what makes Waterstone so special is that its wines taste like Cali-Cult wines without the Cali-Cult prices, impressing wine aficionados as well as those just discovering the world of wine. We were first introduced to this winery two decades ago, and 2001 was the first vintage we sold. Waterstone has been a best-selling wine at Sokolin, year after year. The 95 point, 2018 vintage is the BEST vintage we've tasted since their initial release in 2001! The brilliance and magic of winemaker Laurie Hook (formerly of Beringer and their high scoring luxury offerings) has taken these wines to a whole different stratosphere. At only $34.95 / bottle, this is a phenomenal, under-priced Napa Cab that offers amazing bang for the buck and is a perfect bottle to gift!


For the Bordeaux Lover|2019 Chateau Poesia | Bordeaux | 96 Points | $41.95
If you’re shopping for a Bordeaux lover and are on a budget, 2019 Chateau Poesia is a wine you should add to cart! Chateau Poesia is an exciting Bordeaux value and has been described as “Saint Emilion’s hidden gem.” The 2019 vintage has a 96 point score, and this A rated vintage is only $41.95 – an insanely low price! 2019 Chateau Poesia can be enjoyed for the next two decades. This is a great chance to scoop up and gift a high-scoring Bordeaux at such a low price. Your gift recipient will be thoroughly impressed with this bottle!


For the Italian Wine Lover | 2020 San Guido Guidalberto | 95 Points | $44.99
2020 San Guido Guidalberto is such a special wine! Guidalberto is known as Sassicaia’s baby brother and the second wine of the legendary Sassicaia. This wine always offers fantastic value and has been a Sokolin customer favorite for many years. The 2020 vintage has an impressive 95 point score and is only $44.99 / bottle. Same vines, same winemaker, but at a fraction of the price. This is a drink younger version of Sassicaia, and it’s amazing!

Cheers!
