Gamling & McDuck

Didn’t have time to craft some awesome April Foolishness for you gullible Gus’s, but here’s some from years past. Oh by the way all kinds of cool shit about to happen at the tasting room. Stay tuned.

LOVE this guy. I see him all the time. He’s doing so much for me: He’s 1) making Napa feel like an actual city. 2) reminding me people give a shit, and in such a dedicated, daily, personal way. 3) expressing himself so perfectly- just dancing out an opinion- onlookers be damned, he’ll have his say. THIS is my America. #napa #napavalley #protest #fucktrump #notallheroeswearcapes ...and for the record, I’m 100% double social distancing in a park with a #mezcalmargarita #getthatvitaminD

Goodnight 2020 #seeyounextyear #dontletthedoorhityouonthewayout MAD LOVE to ALL OF YOU in 2021. #gamlingandmcduck #cestlaberezina #auldlangsyne #happynewyear

For the next 12 hours... This perfect wine (I said it) will be available at a 15% discount and will still arrive at your home in time to pop it for New Years. But tomorrow at 12:01 I'm checking out for the remainder of the year- I'm gonna focus on self reflection and drinking that builds from a buzz to an atonal crescendo that peaks at midnight, December 31st 2020- the drinking version of "A Day in the Life" by the Beatles (Lennon's request to George Martin for that 24 bar m...iddle section was that the orchestra should provide "a tremendous build-up, from nothing up to something absolutely like the end of the world"). I intend to greet 2021, certainly not with a newborn baby bod, but at least with a newborn mind. Check out my notes (on the website- link in the bio) on C'est La Bérézina to understand why I've proclaimed this to be the perfect wine. A wine is only as perfect as the occasion on which you drink it. Happy Damn New Year! XO, G&M #gamlingandmcduck #cestlabérézina #blancdenoir #cabfranc #brutnature #catastrophebubbles #happynewyear

Thank You. I've been delivering our wine here in Napa- throwing the hazard lights on, leaving the engine running, setting the packages on the doorstep and backing away, mask on, to greet people from the right amount of distance. We've shared abbreviated conversations- smiles and cautious optimism, flat updates, and always gratitude. We all have this same lens this year- we'll always have this aperture now, and as hard as it's been, it's letting more light in.... We've taken orders over the phone and you've thanked us even as you buy our wine. It's a subtle thoughtfulness from a different kind of distance, a coded way of saying you care about our survival- we see it, and it warms our hearts. This note is simply one to close a distance that we can- to come right out and say Thank You. Your choices and your compassion have directly impacted our business. We're still going- and planning long awkward hugs for all of you in 2021. Happy Holidays, Gabe & Adam #gamlingandmcduck

Only 375 days ‘til Christmas 2021! And today’s pretty much the cutoff for long distance ground shipping for Christmas 2020 (you still have a couple days west-coastians) So call in sick to work or sub in a cardboard cutout for your zoooom meeting, and handle your CA wine orders! #priorities #thebosswillunderstand And I tagged a handful of very cool small producers/favorites that need your dollars more than Amazon does! Happy Holidaze you turkeys! #whatsonyourwinetrain #gamlingandmcduck #cabfranc #chenin #christmascatalog #wishbook #cmonridethetrain
