Hi Niv, according to that chart I believe most value/qpr is found in the 91-93 point/$75$ range, no? I could agree with that.
I think the value is in finding bottles that are below the Quality Price trend line - I will look through my notes and post some of the bottles that were below the trend line.
This was a sample so I didn’t survey all the bottles…
Here we go - good value in Napa by the points/price. 94-96 Parker points the avg. prices (based on low Wine searcher pro) is about $130 per bottle. So everything under $130-150 is a “good deal”: (prices may be outdated)
2012 Turnbull Wine Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 96 points $38
2012 Venge Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Silencieux 95 points $44
2012 Anderson’s Conn Valley Right Bank Proprietary Red 94 points $47
2012 St Supery Vineyards Proprietary Red Elu 94 points $48
2012 Textbook Cabernet Sauvignon Mise en Place 95 points $55
2012 Switchback Ridge Petite Sirah Peterson Family Vineyard Napa Valley 94 points $56
2012 Switchback Ridge Merlot Peterson Family Vineyard 95 points $58
2012 Del Dotto Cabernet Sauvignon 94 points $59
2012 McGah Family Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Scarlett Estate 95 points $60
2012 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon 40th Anniversary 96 points $60
2012 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon 40th Anniversary 96 points $60
Niv, you messing with me? ![[scratch.gif]](/uploads/db3686/original/2X/4/42a16863a8714da3c1604419e3eb9206bb87aa50.gif "scratch"){kind=small}
What do you mean?
Its about $120 per on winebid currently.
I see it at Wine-searcher.com pro for $60
I contend that the 2012 Caymus is a bad deal at any price!
It’s seriously going for $120 on winebid??? Ha!
Have you tried clicking that link?
Is it one of those links where a scary image and a loud scream happens when you click on it? I absolutely hate those.
Caymus 40th USED to be $60. Actually, it was around $55 at Total Wine near it’s release.
EDIT to fix the “correction” that autocorrect wrongly corrected. 
Lol, I wish. Spent 45-60 minutes trying to do this laparoscopically but the liver was so huge and fat-laden I couldn’t retract the left lobe to get the necessary exposure. Once open the infundibulum and porta were probably a foot deep from the skin.
Just a bear but I got a great poloroid I’ll try to attach later![/quote]
Thats funny but its more scarry than that.
Straight up PUNKED by Mongomery County! When municipalities are using Wine-Searcher to troll lovers of 2012 Caymus, you know it’s gotten out of control.
When I did my research I didn’t audit the retailers - but there are many “troll” retailers out there… I’ll check to see if there is a wholesale supply…
Just to provide a little more context - see distribution of Parker points in Napa 2012 reds:
Niv, I do appreciate the info. Did you put the chart together? If so, do you ignore the “range” ratings he gives (e.g. 94-96) for some wines?
Napa Cab? Who even drinks the stuff anymore!
Napa zinfandel tonight.
Could you possibly be any more self absorbed or self righteous? Why are you on a wine board. Even a $10 bottle of wine is $10 you should be giving to starving little kids.
