Inside Job Red Blend Coombsville 2023

Some secrets are worth keeping. Not because they hide wrongdoing, but because they guard something rare, something too precious to disclose outright. Inside Job is one of those secrets.

In the world of Napa Valley wine, connections are everything. ACME was born in the heart of St. Helena, and over the decades, we’ve built friendships and alliances with winemakers whose craft defines this region. These relationships often lead us to extraordinary opportunities—wines not meant for the open market, barrels without a home, projects still under wraps. When a winery’s production exceeds their reach, or when a start-up brand’s marketing plan isn’t ready to support the treasure they’ve created, we are invited in. And sometimes, instead of passing along those barrels, we hold them close. We bottle them ourselves. Thus, Inside Job was born.

The premise is simple, but the results are anything but: each vintage of Inside Job comes from a handful of the most remarkable barrels we encounter. The source may change, the varietal may shift, and the winemaker will always remain unnamed. What never changes is our guiding principle—we only bottle when the wine is extraordinary.

This is our privilege as insiders: to taste, to choose, to guard what is most exceptional. And it becomes your privilege too, as one of the few who can share in what is usually hidden from view. Inside Job isn’t a brand built on volume, or consistency, or marketing polish. It’s a brand built on discovery, on trust, and on the thrill of knowing you’re drinking something that almost never escapes the cellar. Some secrets are meant to be shared. This one is poured into your glass.
