Big time Napa Cab at a big time discount! Get this splurgeworthy wine, aged to perfection, for 70% off the next two days.
Don’t miss your chance to get two bottles of the 2017 Torcia Atlas Peak Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from Rutherford Wines for much less than the normal price of one!
Torcia from Rutherford Wines is back. Our Howell Mountain Cab offering was very well received, so today we’ve got one from the highly sought after Atlas Peak sub appellation in Napa Valley.
Home to the highest elevation vineyards in Napa, this prestigious region is known for its volcanic soils and exceptional Cabernet. The first vineyard was planted here in 1870, and there are still just 18 today. To say this is a highly exclusive area is an understatement.
And of course, the normal price of today’s wine backs that up at $135 a bottle! Spending 18 months in a high percentage of new oak, there were only 3,200 individually numbered bottles of this smooth, dense, big and delicious Cab produced.
And now, 9 years later, it has been aged to perfection!
For the next two days, you can get 2 bottles of the 2017 Torcia Atlas Peak Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon for just $81.95 ($40.98/bottle). That’s a discount of 70% saving you a total of $188, or an incredible $94 a bottle!

Summer 2026 Shipping Info
Shipping is a flat $9.99 per order, no matter how many packs you buy. This applies to both Summer Shipments AND Summer Holds. Summer Shipments also have an additional charge built into the product price for the heat protection package. Here’s how it works:
Summer Ship (+$8 for the Heat Protection Package) – Packages ship in styrofoam and use refrigerated shipping. This includes refrigerated trucks to local hubs for the South, Midwest and East Coast and internal refrigeration (ice packs) in boxes for the West Coast (AZ, CA, ID, NV, OR, WA). Final delivery will be on regular UPS trucks without refrigeration (just like last year), thus the reason for the styrofoam.
Note that unlike last year, packages will not go 2-day air as the refrigerated trucks are a better option, however this will add additional transit time. Trucks will only pick up from our shipper once per week so with our normal order processing time of up to 10 days before orders are sent out, packages will likely take anywhere from 2-3 weeks to arrive in-home.
These orders have an additional cost of $8 built into the product price for this Heat Protection Package. It is NOT possible (nor would it be advisable!) to purchase a deal with summer shipping without also including the Heat Protection Package.
Summer Hold – Buy your wine now and have your shipment held in a temperature controlled warehouse for delivery in October! While we take every precaution we can with our Summer Shipping protocol, we also know that many of you travel or live in very hot areas where you don’t want to risk it (or you simply detest styrofoam).
Please note this is not a “ship-at-will” program, all your summer hold orders will ship (in cardboard/no styrofoam) at a date of our choosing in mid-October once temperatures have cooled down. Please read this post for important info to determine if the Summer Hold program is right for you.
If this is your first time ordering please check out the shipping section of our FAQ for more information.
For your convenience you also have the option to select a UPS Store/Access Point to ship to at checkout (with no additional pickup fee) so you don’t have to be home to sign! For Summer Hold orders whatever shipping location option you choose at checkout (ship to home or ship to UPS Store/Access Point) will apply in October.
From the winery:
2017 Torcia Atlas Peak Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Deep and brooding in color as well as nature, the thin, tufa soils of Atlas Peak grow wines with an edgy character. The nose has hues of blue fruit and a hint camphor.
The wine hits the palate at breakneck speed, flooding the senses with its assertive nature. Ripples of blueberry gum, tart red current, dark black chocolate and a hint of baking spice. Tight grained tannin and brite acidity create a mouthwatering finish.

And now on to our review:
The 2017 Torcia Atlas Peak Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a classic Napa Cab aroma of dark fruit, licorice, baking spice and more. It’s a great start.
Tasting the wine reveals lots of dark fruit with similar flavors to the nose. It’s smooth, dense and big but the oakiness has resolved nicely after 9 years. It is still a bit chewy though, which we love. Even at this age it still has several years of peak drinking ahead of it.
It ends dry, long, grippy and satisfying. It was just as good on day 2.
Cheers,
Jon

Here’s what people are saying about our Insider Deals:
“ I only drink Reverse Wine Snob wine, it actually doesn’t make sense to buy from a store. You don’t get anything interesting, unique, and full of value otherwise.”
“Jon, I should have bought more! Delicious!!”
“I am a Certified Specialist of Wine. I love your deals. You pick great wines!! Kudos to you for getting us great deals!”
“I have tell you that I have been really, really pleased with this whole reverse wine snob endeavor. The info you provided gives me enough to purchase with confidence.

“Also your prices are pretty amazing.”
“Hey Jon! You do great work. I’ve bought a bunch of the Insider Deals and probably 80% of the wine I drink comes from them. Great values!”
“The shipping on the Insider Deals is another great part of the deal. We recently paid $27 to a winery in California to ship 6 bottles (same packaging as the insider deals)….yikes!”
“Just got my 6 bottles and having my first glass. WHY, WHY didn’t I buy a case??!!”
“Would you happen to be offering this one again anytime soon? I regret not buying more. This was exceptional!”
“I am seriously considering having the Insider Deals as my primary go-to. Why did I not do this sooner? Thank you”

“Thanks Jon. We already drank all 6 of the first order so we were ecstatic to see you offering it again. My wife and I both love it.”
“You are a man after my own heart. I have always looked for the best and least expensive wine and you just made it easier. Cheers!”
“Hi Jon, well, I did something people have warned about – bought 6 bottles and should have bought 12!”
“Have had nothing but great bottles since I started ordering your recommendations. Thanks so much!”
“We’ve gotten in on three of the deals and have been VERY happy with the value. I originally was going to do a wine club thing but the insider deal appeals to me much more.”
“I really missed the boat by only getting four bottles of this offer last month. Should have bought least at a case.”
“My wife and I have really enjoyed getting to know new wines (and better than we used to buy!) Thanks for what you do and providing this service!”
“Jon – you have to stop offering all of these amazing deals. My self discipline is fading fast!!”
“The wine is outstanding. I am so glad I bought a case.”

“I have loved all my RWS deals, can’t wait to get this one.”
“I know that you don’t need to have ‘customers’ email you every time they like a wine that you have suggested/rated, and I have enjoyed many of your recommendations. But this Tannat was spectacular! Wow! That was amazing!”

“Wish I had doubled my order!”
“By the way, you guys have a great company – smart concept, well executed. I may never have to make another trek to the wine store again. And your customer service is pretty darn good. Thank you. ”
“I am very much enjoying the wines I have been getting from you. I have discontinued all other wine services as the quality of the wines you select seem superior to what I was receiving elsewhere.”
“That’s tremendous…I wish I had tripled my order.”
“I’ve bought a ridiculous amount of wine from your deals in the last year…I just want to say that I really appreciate what you guys have done with RWS. I discovered your site looking up Costco wine reviews and have been hooked on your insider deals ever since. I’ve been referring every friend I know.”
“I recently took advantage of your offer. So glad I did, and now sorry I did not buy more (like all those quotes on your website!)”
“I have been buying your Insider Deals for about 3 years now and we have enjoyed every one of them. They are wines that we never would have found on our own… ”
