Tasting notes
Brought up all in barrel, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon has a classy, slightly old school-like vibe in its red and black fruits as well as leather, spicy herbs, and tobacco-driven aromas and flavors. It's medium-bodied, has good acidity and tannins, and a lengthy finish. It's going to offer ample pleasure over the coming decade or so.

A strong vintage for this wine, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate includes 6% each Malbec and Petit Verdot and spent 18 months in 53% new oak. The result is that notes of cedar and brown sugar accent black cherries and cassis on the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is richly textured, silky and elegant but firm and tannic. Give it a couple of years in the cellar if you can.
