Powerful and intensely layered with potent black fruits steeped in lavish cedarwood spices. Full-bodied with saturated black fruits and currant jam, massive beams of tannins, and an extended finish of leather and olive tapenade.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Gaspare Vineyard is a huge, inky wine. Blackberry jam, crème de cassis, chocolate, new leather, licorice and incense are all dialed up in this opulent Oak Knoll Cabernet.
93 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous (Dec 2023)
Firm, robust and well-built, with aromas of blackberries, dark plums, grilled herbs and baking spices. Full-bodied with plush tannins. Juicy texture with plenty of berries on the mid-palate. Quite chewy with a pulpy but compact finish at this stage. Try after 2025.
