I mean…HELLO! It might be National Clean Off Your Desk Day across the nation, but here…now? Welcome to Meteor ROCKS and Coombsville Cab DROPS day at Last Bottle HQ!

WOWZA!!! I’m not going to lie…I might have overdone it with some just-past-its-prime eggnog last night. So to save my pounding head, and your precious time, of course…we’re breaking out the trusty bullet points. Without further ado, here’s what you need to know:

- A staggering $141 OFF the winery’s suggested library price. For a KILLER Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon with PERFECT provenance – aged for over a decade and ready to blow your hair back!

- The superb winemaking talents of Bill and Dawnine Dyer (local Napa legends), combined with the legendary vineyard manager Mike Wolf (Harlan, Bond, too many to name here…).

- The vineyard is a longtime favorite selection for Andy Erickson, Tony Soter, Philippe Melka, and many of Napa’s top winemakers…a true SHOOTING STAR of the Coombsville AVA!

- We said 94 POINTS, right? Galloni calls out this estate, saying “Meteor excels with Cabernets that capture a gorgeous interplay of rich texture and the energy that is typical of Coombsville, one of the cooler sectors in Napa Valley. These are big, powerful Cabernets, yet retain a wonderful sense of poise.” – I mean, RIGHT?!?!

OK – if you’re not already loading up your cart…check your PULSE! We’ve been snagging bits and bobs of Meteor from a super-secret source that is nearly…NEARLY tapped dry…so if you like EPIC and AGEWORTHY Napa Cab, with big scores, at a simply unreal deal – this is YOUR TIME to shine! Meteor Vineyards “Perseid” Cabernet Sauvignon is revered for its Bordeaux-esque style, and 2012 has this baby singing like top-flight Margaux! The inky, crème de cassis opulence, balanced with dusty, rare-earth minerality, and blackberries, with red currants, and smoldering sage, and whiffs of fine, fresh tobacco, a kiss of perfectly ripe black Mission figs, and wild fennel, with black pepper, clove, and toasty cedar – all tied together with this bouquet garni of roasted herbs…MY WORD!!! This is a baby, and a beast, and a gorgeously layered PHENOM of Coombsville perfection. For UNDER $50???? Stop…it. Seriously.

I’m getting six. One for now (‘cause it is sooooo dang good!) and five to drink until I’m sixty. I suggest you match me…at least!

Crazy day. Go snag this, STAT!
