Due to the low yields, there is no The Ravens in this vintage, just the 2021 Pearl of the Ravens. It's a ripe, rich year for this wine, marked by black cherries, mulberries and hints of dark chocolate. It's full-bodied, supple and creamy textured, yet dark and richly tannic. It really could use something to lighten it up a little, yet it retains some sense of balance on the lingering finish.
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Pearl of The Ravens is a bold, extroverted wine. Super-ripe red fruit, mocha, new leather and spice are all dialed up in this heady, potent Napa Valley Cabernet. Give the tannins a year or two to soften. There's a lot of wine here.
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Pearl of The Ravens is a huge, dense wine endowed with tons of palate presence and rich, deep fruit that knits the wine together from start to finish. Black fruit, gravel, scorched earth, tobacco and incense add to an impression of virile intensity. This is a decidedly imposing Cabernet.
