Ripe blackcurrants, plum skin, dark licorice, vanilla and wet earth. Full-bodied, succulent and deep, with a powdery texture to its tannins and juicy acidity. Rich and flavorful. Drink after 2026.

This blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petit Verdot, and 1% Syrah was aged Aged 22 months in 44% new French oak. Wonderfully aromatic kirsch and black cherry compte intermix with dried herbs and heady, toasty oak with espresso and caramel-scented nuances. Those sweet red berry fruit notes continue on the palate, uninterrupted as silky tannins help build on the easy-drinking quality of this Cabernet.

Generous, upright, and bold, this Cabernet Sauvignon from John Anthony celebrates opulence and rich flavor. Concentrated dark fruits, tobacco and cocoa are carried by palate coating tannins into a full bodied finish.

John Anthony's 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon boasts a minty-cedary nose, backed by black cherries and cassis. Matured 20 months in two-thirds new French oak, it's full-bodied, broad and expansive, soft and supple, with gentle tannins on the finish. It's a prime candidate to enjoy young.

Beautiful cassis, graphite, asphalt, leather, and chocolate spice notes emerge from the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, which spent 20 months in 66% new French oak. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it reveals a concentrated mid-palate, solid tannins, and focused balance reflecting the vintage character. Drink over the next 10-12 years.
