Combine Julien Fayard’s Bordeaux Brilliance and Napa Valley’s Excellent Terroir — You Get Next Level Delicious

Here’s the scoop: Julien Fayard is a winemaker we’ve been following for years. He trained with Philippe Melka and has had his hands on some rockstar wines. He’s currently winemaker and partner at Covert Estate and consults at more than a dozen wineries in Napa and in France. 

So, what happens when this expert wants to put his own name on a wine bottle? He chooses the best lots to produce the best wine to showcase his success and skills.

Introducing the 2021 Julien Fayard Classic Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. This wine is the perfect blend of expert craftsmanship and exceptional quality—crafted for those who appreciate the finest things in life. Like the name suggests, this is a classic cab. It’s not overly oaky. This wine focuses on the high quality fruit and makes for a quintessential Napa Cab that you’ll want to cuddle as you quaff.

Why You’ll Love It:

  • Critic Score: This wine has already received glowing praise, including 94 points from Decanter, highlighting its bright fruit, smooth tannins, and excellent acidity.

  • Winemaker Expertise: Julien Fayard, trained at the renowned Château Lafite Rothschild and Smith Haut Lafitte, brings a unique, refined approach to Napa winemaking, combining the best of Bordeaux expertise with Napa’s exceptional terroir.

  • 2021 Vintage: Vinous Media calls the 2021 Napa Valley vintage “fabulous,” awarding it a 95-98 points for its energy, finesse, and complexity.

Julien Fayard's winemaking philosophy focuses on quality and precision, with an emphasis on working closely with Napa's top growers to craft wines that express both the land and the grapes. His meticulous attention to detail and passion for the craft result in wines like this Cabernet, which combines elegance and bold character.

Whether you’re relaxing at home, hosting friends, or looking to make a statement at your next dinner party, this bottle is your go-to choice. Its balance of energy and finesse will impress seasoned wine enthusiasts and newcomers alike.

This is your chance to bring a taste of Napa Valley into your home with a wine that offers both incredible value and exceptional quality. Plus, with limited availability due to a small harvest in 2021, now is the time to grab a few bottles before they’re gone.

And guess what? BHW actually has the lowest price anywhere. Elsewhere, this bottle sells for $90.00+, but you can get it for just $79.99 from BHW. The winery asked us not to promote this price other than to our email list, so if you didn’t know, you now know, that this is a not to be missed opportunity.

Don’t miss out on the chance to indulge in something truly special. 

2016 Whitehall Lane Leonardini Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
