Sine Qua Non – seems to divide the crowd here

Cayuse – very polarizing wines

Heitz.
Good producer? Yes. One of the great OGs of a beautiful and unique region, really incredible wines with elegance and richness, proven aging capabilities, and generally good QPR, especially for the entry-level.
But they’re a Napa producer, so r/wine is divided right from the start.

My head hurts. This Australian guy is dividing us. Dissent = karma?

Penfolds?
Obectively good, but people are pretty divided.

Harlan. Just about everybody agrees they’re a great producer, but there’s a decent amount of hate over the price level.

Jacques Selosse. Some people here just can’t get on with the style.

Jean Foillard, maybe?
I’d say the sub mostly likes his wines, but some people in general don’t like Beaujolais, let alone the more “natty” styles like Foillard’s.

Chateau Musar. The VA turns a lot of people off, but it is an historically prestigious winery.

Opus One – a lot of people here seem to automatically discount it or hate on it because of its successful marketing, but on the other spectrum there are a lot of people that secretly upvote and say they love it. While mixed, objectively Opus is a great producer as they consistently make great wine – something that most people on here agree.

Lopez de Heredia. Their whites and roses are so good that they are undeniably a good producer. But their reds are so hit and miss in terms of bottle variation (and, in my view, overall quality) that there’s a counter-current of L-D-Haters on r/wine.

Sassicaia. Most times I’ve heard it was just underwhelming or dissappointing. This includes me.

Based on my previous praise of Ridge, I have to say…Ridge.

Silver Oak, or Silver Joke as a lot of people in this sub call it.
