Winemaker’s Notes: Winemakers describe Napa Valley’s 2022 red wines as having elegant structure with deep color, luxurious tannins and exquisite fruit-forward aromatics. The unique weather events that defined the vintage showcase the full range of flavors that Oakville wines are known for, and resulted in softer tannins that allow the opulent fruit characters to shine. The 2022 Cuvée is a deep magenta colored wine that opens with aromas of black raspberry complemented by bright notes of violet and a touch of mint, vanilla and chocolate. On the palate it is smooth, with approachable tannins and a luscious mouthfeel that lingers nicely on flavors of blackberry, fig, and hints of black pepper and cedar. Cellar for 10-20 years, or decant if enjoying it sooner. |
