Keenan 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
$ 64.99
Â
Keenan is a fantastic producer on Napa Valley's Spring Mountain. Neighboring Pride, Paloma, Barnett and Cain, a beautiful mountain Cabernet we highly recommend.
93 Points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "Bold and juicy, Keenan's 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is super-expressive today. Dark cherry, plum, grilled herbs, mocha, spice and licorice are all front and center. The 2018 is deep and fleshy yet retains a classic, mid-weight feel that works so well. Drink it over the next decade."
92 Points James Suckling: "Rich, meaty cabernet with aromas of stewed plums, dark cherries, dried thyme, black olives, charred wood and smoked meat. Full-bodied with firm, chewy tannins. Dark and concentrated. Chewy finish. Try after 2023."
...This winery on Spring Mountain has been doing an impeccable job of winemaking for a number of years now, and they continue to show a Midas touch across all varieties they work with."
Keenan 2018 Chardonnay Spring Mountain District Napa Valley
$ 39.99
Great new Chardonnay release from Keenan! Â One of our favorite wineries on Napa's Spring Mountain.
91 Jeb Dunnuck: "Starting with the 2018 Chardonnay, which is all from Spring Mountain, it offers a pretty bouquet of bright citrus, tangerine, and orange blossom to go with a medium-bodied, racy style on the palate. With plenty of acidity, good ripeness of fruit, and a great finish, it's going to keep for a solid 7-8 years."
Keenan's 2018 Chardonnay was hand harvested, de-stemmed, then gently pressed. The juice was fermented and aged in French and American oak barrels. The wine was left on the lees and the barrels were stirred weekly. No secondary, or malolactic fermentation was carried out, leading to the crisp, citrus character of this wine. The wine was bottled after approximately seven months of aging in the cellar. The finished wine shows citrus, ripe pear and green apple in the nose. Hints of lush white peach are noticed as the wine opens up. The sur-lie aging has added richness and complexity, and a touch of toasty oak returns on the finish. Like all of Keenan’s wines, this Chardonnay is a food worthy wine whose crisp acidity and medium body will accompany a wide variety of food fare.
Keenan 2018 Reserve "Mernet" Napa Valley
$ 119.99
A fantastic Merlot/Cab blend from Keenan's Spring Mountain vineyards. Rare release.
95 Points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2018 Red Blend Mernet Reserve, Keenan's Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold, dense wine. Soaring aromatics and silky tannins render it approachable even young. Inky red/purplish fruit, mocha and sweet spice build over time. There is a bit of new oak coming through today, but a few years in bottle should help that integrate.

Keenan 2018 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
$ 119.99
Keenan is one of our favorite wineries on Napa Valley's Spring Mountain. Neighboring Pride, Paloma, Barnett and Cain. One of the highest rated Cabs of the vintage. Limited.
96+ Points Antonio Galloni (Vinous):Â "The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is such a great example of Spring Mountain. Powerful and virile, the classically-built Reserve packs a serious punch. I would give it a few years to soften, but it is super-impressive, even in the early going. Crushed red berry fruit, iron, dried flowers, mint and spice lead into the long, sculpted finish."
...Keenan has been on a real high-quality roll for a number of years, and they are among my favorite wines in Napa Valley, combining power and complexity. They’ve certainly found their groove, so to speak, in this last 10-15 years.  Michael Keenan has done a fabulous job of ratcheting up the quality of the wines from this Spring Mountain estate."

Great new Chardonnay release from Keenan! Â One of our favorite wineries on Napa's Spring Mountain.
93 Points James Suckling: "A fresh and vivid chardonnay with cooked-apple, honey and cream character. Medium-to full-bodied, fresh and bright. Tight. No malo. One for the cellar. Drink or hold."
