Tasting Notes
Blended with a touch of Petit Verdot for complexity, our Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon offers an appealingly decadent nose of blueberries, plums, graphite, and sage. The dark fruit flavor profile has an underlying minerality, and it is accented with notes of sagebrush and lilacs. Full-bodied with fine tannins and a core of acidity, it delivers a long and generous finish.
Winemaking Notes
Low rainfall and a couple of brief heat spikes favored meticulous farming and resilient vineyards in 2021. Our heritage vineyards—along with our sites in the Stags Leap District and on Diamond Mountain—performed outstandingly. We harvested prior to the significant rainfalls that hit the Napa Valley at the end of the season, and brought in beautifully intact fruit. Careful viticulture and cluster selection across our sites contributed to the structure and character of our wines.
