The 2022 Fait-Main 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from top sites in Calistoga, Oakville and St Helena, and was aged for 18 months in 75% new French oak. Elegant yet structured, the wine shows vibrancy and finesse, with a distinctly mineral-driven profile in 2023. Ripe blackberry and black cherry fruit sit at the core, framed by velvety-textured tannins and a medium- to full-bodied build. As it opens, notes of tobacco and graphite minerality emerge, carrying through a fresh, focused finish that underscores both precision and poise.

Deep ruby/plum-hued, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley offers rocking aromatics of red and black currants, savory herbs, dried flowers, and spicy wood. Full-bodied on the palate, it has a layered, seamless mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a terrific finish. This is a smoking good base-appellation wine that will offer 10-15 years of prime drinking, and you could do far worse than a case in the cellar. Drink 2025-2035.
