Winemaker Notes
The nose opens with layered aromas of ripe black cherry, dark plum, graphite, and violets, underscored by subtle notes of sweet tobacco and baking spice. On the palate, the wine is expansive and silky, revealing concentrated flavors of blackberry, cassis, and dark chocolate, balanced by refined tannins and a vibrant core of acidity. A hint of crushed rock and cedar lingers through the long, harmonious finish, capturing the essence of Oakville’s exceptional terroir.
Professional Ratings
95 James Suckling
A beautiful, luscious, easy-sipping red that goes deep in red and black fruit on a silky texture. Dark plums, black cherries, dark chocolate, cocoa and hints of red flowers, iron and graphite. Soft, resolved tannins and a lingering finish. Drink now or hold.
94 Jeb Dunnuck
Almost all Oakville with a splash of Wappo Hill, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon is a smoking red that longtime Napa lovers will adore. Red and black fruits, spicy wood, flowers, and cedar nuances all emerge from the glass, and it’s medium-bodied, with a pure, layered, seamless profile that has tons to love.
