2021Solaksen Cabernet Sauvignon
Coming from the Royal Slope and mostly Clone 337, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Solaksen Vineyard has a Bordeaux-like vibe in its red and black fruits as well as smoked tobacco, lead pencil, and cedary herb-laced aromas and flavors. It’s another medium to full-bodied, beautifully balanced 2021 that has plenty of richness as well as freshness. - Jeb Dunnuck

"“This beautiful wine comes from Block 5 in the vineyard, with mainly Clone 337 Cabernet Sauvignon which is the most widely planted clone in the Napa Valley. Once on the nose this shows walnut tones on the nose alongside cassis, anise and exotic spices. There is a brilliant fruit spectrum on the palate, ranging from red to dark fruit alongside espresso grounds, graphite and scorched earthy tones.”"

"“This boisterous and scintillating Cabernet is full-bodied, layered in complexity and shows terrific balance between the mouthwatering acidity and the fine-grained tannins.”"
