Well I love auction houses on wines that are under the radar. Well this wine was $24.00 and Cellar Tracker had some off reviews on this otherwise I would have 3 cases instead of one case. Well this is off the charts on this beautiful day!
- 2013 Robert Foley Merlot – USA, California, Napa Valley (2/18/2026)
Day 1: Riedel Performance Cabernet/Merlot Glass. Natural cork. To say this is the best deal I have gotten via auction might be an understatement. This cost me $24.00 round trip with shipping from Chicago Wine Company a few years ago. The only issue is I didn’t buy the other 2 cases at that price. Lesson learned. Wonderful effort featuring funk, spices, blue currants, perfume, coffee beans, minerals and cherry. Medium plus finish and this has a drinking window through 2030. 94 points (94 points)
