Description

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon tends toward density and structure, and this 2021 bottling from Joseph Phelps Vineyards plays to that strength. It is a still red built on the varietal's natural backbone, from a vintage that has earned a reputation for concentration in California.

The fruit here runs dark and dense, inky shades of blue and purple, framed by an unusually expressive aromatic side. Lavender and spice give way to menthol, savory herbs, and a floral lift that adds real complexity to the nose. It is a wine of richness and detail, balanced and carefully made.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) marries rich, dense fruit with gorgeous floral notes. The 2021 is laced with inky blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, menthol and savory herbs that lend notable aromatic complexity. This is beautifully done.
