94 POINTS…a brain-melting 68.8% OFF – Sleeper’s First Ever CABERNET FRANC is back…but OH SO VERY LITTLE REMAINS!!!

If Petit Verdot can step into the spotlight and lead like a Clark Gable – then surely, SURELY Cabernet Franc can, too? The days of Cabernet Franc taking a backseat to its offspring are over – and I could not be more thrilled! The ever mysterious, always blockbusting, consistently industry-disrupting SLEEPER is BACK!!! Our FIRST EVER Cabernet Franc bottling…with 94 POINTS straight out the gate!!! That’s the EXACT same score the same critic gave CHAPPELLET’s cabernet franc – and that stunner consistently makes my Top 3 EVERY dang year! So yeah, I’m pumped… and you should be, too! From the pristine, low-yielding, intensely concentrated, super-duper aromatic 2021 Napa Valley vintage that has already become simply legendary… and I’m here to tell you… the hype is REAL, folks! 

We worked a deal of all-time Last Bottle deals to score this – from a single vineyard at the base of ATLAS PEAK, right on the edge of cool-to-be-hip Coombsville! Organic and biodynamic in practice, but not certified yet…stay tuned. The winery is fiercely secretive – we can’t say much about them, okay, anything really… other than the location of the vineyard it was sourced from – but you are going to want some of this. Trust us. Can’t tell you the winemaker, either…but let’s just say…MARQUEE!

A masterful blend of 89% cabernet franc, with 8% cabernet sauvignon, and 3% petit verdot, aged 18 months in 22% new French oak, this beauty belongs in a class of $125++ Napa cabernet francs, easy! But here?! Today?! Crazy low price UNDER $40?! Huzzah! What a price! Blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries (I swear those are a real thing), plus plums and bay laurel, roasting coffee beans, MAN! Plush, lush, and just PUMPING out bright and boisterous fruit sensations – plums for days, even MORE bramble berries, a touch of graphite, sweet pomegranate molasses, tangy balsamic reduction, then cedar, cinnamon, black cherry cola…YES! This is big and rich, no question, but shining bright and fresh, with a sappy, lingering finish that holds for days! Napa Cab lovers will lose their mind for this, and any Cali-Cab Franc seekers are sure to be driven to a state of sheer ecstasy! If you got this before – you KNOW!!! This might well be your last chance EVER to snag this baby, so…what are you waiting for??? Go get ‘em!!!!

*** And if you’re new to us and wondering what the heck Sleeper even is…here’s our lawyer-approved description... What does a "cult" Napa Valley winery (think: $125 a bottle and up (way up), tiny production, famous winemaker, etc.) do when they make 400 cases of killer Cab but only want to release 200 cases? Well, they quietly call a friend....maybe someone in the wine biz that has been around the block a few times....someone....DISCREET. That’s US. We’re like Fort Knox over here. We created the Sleeper brand specifically to curate these kinds of once-in-a-lifetime type deals that occasionally come our way, and we’re as picky and meticulous on selection as everything else we do. Just ask the thousands of happy people who know! ***
