Tasting notes
Lokoya's 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Diamond Mountain combines fruit from two sites: Rhyolite Ridge, a south-facing site at 800 feet above sea level with powdery volcanic soils, and Wallis Vineyard, about 300 feet higher, characterized by more sedimentary rock. Scents of crushed stone and pencil shavings accent notes of sage, bay, cassis and blueberry on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is creamy and lush, framed by fine-grained tannins and revealing great intensity and length on the finish.

The 2022 Lokoya Cabernet Sauvignon Diamond Mountain District is a tour de force, offering a Latour-like nose of pure cassis, lead pencil shavings, graphite, crushed stone, and new leather. Full-bodied, powerful, and incredibly rich on the palate, this doesn't get much better in the vintage. The tannins are beautifully integrated, and the overall balance and purity are simply awesome. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon spent 22 months in 85% new French oak, and while it's certainly approachable with a decant, it will benefit from 4-5 years of bottle age and keep for 25+ years.
