This velvety, opulent wine is rich in baked cherry and blackberry aromas, with dark chocolate and crème de cassis flavors. Layers of fruit and oak spices fill the palate, shaped gently by fine-grained tannins. Best from 2026–2034.

Attractive aromas of ripe blackcurrants, dried cherries, walnuts, spiced cedar and licorice. Medium- to full-bodied, ripe and dark-fruited with velvety tannin structure and a spicy finish. Better after 2025.

A smoking value, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon has loads of up-front cassis and blackberry fruit to go with a layered, medium to full-bodied, juicy style that's already hard to resist. With some classic chocolate, spice, and leafy herb notes, ripe tannins, and a good finish, it's well worth seeking out. It will evolve for a solid 7-8 years or more.

Ripe but understated, with dark currant and plum reduction flavors that move through slowly. Laced with fresh hummus and tobacco notes, the grippy finish brings a touch of an old-school feel. Best from 2025 through 2035. 22,908 cases made.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, with 6% Cabernet Franc, 5%Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot, and 1% Malbec in the blend, is deep garnet-purple in color. Scents of crushed blackcurrants, black cherries, and mulberries spring from the glass, leading to hints of cumin seed and black olives. The full-bodied palate is laden with bright, expressive black fruit flavors, framed by ripe grainy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing with a skip in its step.
