What if you could get your hands on a wine from exactly the same vineyard that produced one of Napa’s most coveted 2021 Cabernets—one with two near-perfect 99-point scores from James Suckling and Robert Parker? A wine that commands $400+ per bottle, coveted by collectors and whispered about in the highest circles of Napa.

While we cannot reveal the name of that wine, what we can confirm is that it comes from the same vineyard as the Lortum Riché Row 38 Cask 5.

This is your rare chance to experience that vineyard’s extraordinary depth, power, and elegance without the usual trophy price tag. This is insider access to one of Napa’s most exclusive terroirs, made accessible through the masterful craft of Victor Fuentes.

Crafted under the expert hand of Victor Fuentes, whose vineyard management at Cardinale, La Jota, and Cakebread Cellars is legendary, this wine embodies his philosophy of “energy, darkness, and nuance.” Every barrel reflects Victor’s precision, bringing the vineyard’s true character vividly to life.

Prepare for intense layers of boysenberry, black currant, espresso, and bittersweet cocoa, wrapped in a silky yet commanding texture that lingers with sophisticated grace.

Lortum Riché, a family estate now in its second generation, combines tradition and modern innovation to deliver wines that define Napa’s finest qualities. This bottle is an exceptional opportunity to own a Cabernet of rare distinction from a vineyard that few ever taste.

The name "Lortum" combines two words: "lor" from British English and "tum" from Cambodian (because a family member is Cambodian). Together, they mean a "ripe exclamation of surprise." Adding "Riché" means "rich, ripe, exclamation of surprise." That’s exactly what this wine delivers — rich and ripe flavors, plus a surprising price.

On top of that, it comes from the highly coveted 2021 vintage—a year quickly disappearing from cellars. Vinous Media scored 2021 at 97 points, stating: “"Two thousand twenty-one is a fabulous vintage in Napa Valley. That’s the good news. The not so good news is that production is down sharply, 30-50% in many cases." 

100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Concentrated, dark, and luxurious, with supple texture and refined elegance. Bursting with intense flavors of boysenberries, currants, espresso, cocoa, and a hint of cigar box, it delivers a rich yet balanced experience that lingers on the palate.
