Tasting notes
Whitehall Lane's 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Leonardini Vineyard is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and aged 26 months in 85% new French oak. Marked by scents of cedar, chocolate, baking spices and black cherries, this really does have an aromatic resemblance to Black Forest cake. It's medium to full-bodied, velvety, concentrated and more savory on the palate, with a certain brightness to the finish.

From a site in St. Helena, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Leonardini Vineyard is all varietal and was tasted as a barrel sample. Ripe black plums, mulled cherries, black olive, iron, and baking spices all define this riper, savory, mouth-filling Cabernet. It's going to drink nicely right out of the gate. This is never my favorite release from this estate, but this should be an outstanding wine.
