Some call it "cult wine." To James and Janet Moss, it's simply their life's work. J. Moss is the story of a young Black winemaker who moved across the country to build a legacy in Napa Valley from the ground up — where Janet's precision meets James's passion to create wines that are complex and age-worthy for the connoisseur, yet remarkably balanced for a Tuesday night at home. This four-bottle lot is your invitation into that story: a collector's flight of single-vineyard Cabernets from Rutherford, Howell Mountain, Coombsville, and Oakville, earning scores as high as 93 points from top critics like Jeb Dunnuck and the Wine Advocate. Supporting this lot celebrates the very kind of diversity and legacy our scholarships are working to grow in the wine industry.
Your winning bid includes:
- 2016 Mee Lane, Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon — rich cassis and mocha meet sweet tobacco and vanilla in this classic Rutherford Cab, built for the cellar
- 2017 Eagle Summit Vineyard, Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon — bold, high-elevation fruit with a smoky, sweet tobacco edge that mountain Cab lovers chase
- 2018 Steffensen Vineyard, Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon — silky black plum and dark chocolate, a standout from one of Napa's most exciting cool-climate appellations
- 2021 Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon — deep blackberry and graphite from Napa's most legendary Cabernet neighborhood
All 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, aged in 92% new French oak — a hallmark of the J. Moss house style.
