In the world of wine, a bottle should transport you to a sun-drenched hillside in Tuscany, the vibrant energy of a Napa Valley harvest, or the quiet, chalky cellars of Champagne with the first sip. For the fall season, we’ve curated a selection of seven remarkable wines from around the world that should be on your radar:
Post & Beam by Far Niente 2024 Pinot Noir, Napa Valley
A study in elegance from a house renowned for power. While Far Niente is synonymous with profound Cabernet, their Post & Beam label demonstrates a masterful touch with a more delicate grape. The 2024 Pinot Noir is a revelation—a Napa interpretation that favors finesse over force.
Notes: Aromas of wild strawberry, crushed rose petal, and a hint of forest floor leap from the glass. On the palate, it’s silky and vibrant, with red cherry and baking spice that leads to a finish of remarkable length and purity. This is the Pinot for the Cabernet lover, a testament to Napa’s stunning diversity.
