videoWhy I Bought a Winery After 20 Years of Drinking the Wine
Bluegrass was Frank Laureti's wine long before it was his winery. He was a Club Equus member for over a decade. Same wine, every time. Every barbecue, every birthday, every Friday night that earned a good bottle. Then in 2014, the winery came up for sale. He bought it. Lock, stock and barrel. Frank's not a connoisseur. He'll be the first to tell you that. But he knows Bluegrass. And his rule of thumb? Five years in the cellar takes it from consistently good to consistently great. The 2023 Bluegrass Collection is here. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Shiraz and Shiraz, alongside cellar release wines from 2016 and 2017 that have been quietly ageing for exactly this moment. Available to Club Equus members first.

podcast· 52:09· Ep 526How Chateau Montelena Won the Judgement of Paris with Bo Barrett
Wine Talks is continuing the "Judgement of Paris" series with the most unlikely of the all. The Barretts were neighbors and patrons of Paul Kalemkiarian's Sr's wine shop in Palos Verdes Estates and in fact, as told by Bo in this podcast, probably the shop where the family bought the wines they used to celebrate the win. What happens when a surfer from Palos Verdes trades the ocean for Napa's vineyards and ends up toppling French wine supremacy? On this episode, Bo Barrett uncorks the rebellious roots behind Chateau Montelena's epic 1976 Judgment of Paris victory, revealing how a tax credit, a ghost winery, and a crew of passionate misfits changed wine history forever. Paul Kalemkiarian digs into the wild mix of grit, luck, and audacity that put California wine on the world map—and why that maverick spirit is under threat today.

This is not that wine. The Clos de la Tech Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot Noir 2016 is a passion project taken to the extreme. Founded by a Silicon Valley tech executive inspired by the great wines of Burgundy, the goal was simple but ambitious: create a California Pinot Noir modeled after the legendary wines of Romanée-Conti. That means no shortcuts. Whole cluster fermentation, foot treading, native yeast, and aging in top-tier French oak barrels. Everything about this wine is built for the long haul. And that’s exactly what it needed. This wine was held back and allowed to develop for nearly a decade before release, giving it the time required for the struct
