Mission Codename Hello Bello

Oh yes! It’s going down!

Cabernet lovers, particularly of the Rutherford type, this is a must-have! Especially at OVER 50% OFF the release price.

Be nimble! Be quick! Unless you have a hot tub time machine, in which case, we’d like to politely ask for some NVDA stock circa 2015.

Bello Family has been making fantastic wines in Napa for well over a decade, but unless you visited their tasting room you may not have heard of them. They make a handful of cases each year, and very little of it, 7 barrels to be exact is this wine, and most go to their wine club members or restaurants.

How did we land some of this freshly released, off-the-charts-delicious Rutherford Cab? Advanced psy-ops? Devastating good looks? Deep connections with friends in wine country? Doesn’t matter, really.

What matters is right here in front of you - a fresh release from the excellent 2021 vintage. The vineyard is a mere 5 acres originally planted by David Abreu, surrounded by famous vineyards such as Georges de Latour, Scarecrow, Phelps, Cakebread, Staglin, Morisoli, Round Pond… Rutherford Dust galore here!

Proprietor Christopher Bello makes the wines, who learned from the best consultants over the years like Aaron Pott (of Pott, Blackbird, Seven Stones fame) and Ross Wallace (of Bryant Family, Hunnicutt, Nickel & Nickel fame) as what’s in the glass clearly shows.

The deep purple/ruby color gives way to a festival of ripe, juicy black cherries, black plum, and blueberry cobbler up in your muzzle. Some dusty earth (Rutherford dust, yo) and crushed stone, rose petal and clove enter the fray. Just a baby now, but it has all the right stuff poppin’ off for maximum enjoyment in the near term - and the stuffing to go the distance. Assuming you get enough to last.

Real deal Rutherford Cab priced like this always moves fast. Countdown to “sold out” starts now!

92 Points – Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

“Incorporating 6% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, Bello’s 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon features subtle hints of eucalyptus and dusty earth against a backdrop of ripe cherries. In the mouth, it’s medium to full-bodied, supple and easy to drink, framed by soft tannins, and with expressive fruit lingering easily on the finish. Drink 2023-2033.”
