2021 LOT NO. 1 CABERNET SAUVIGNON

94 points, James Suckling (May 2024)

A robust Cabernet Sauvignon in the ripe and full-bodied mode, this wine is blended from sites from Napa Valley floor, benchland and mountain fruit, with 31% Stagecoach Vineyard fruit. Generous notes of blueberries, black cherries and oak spices fill the palate.

Our Lot 1 is an absolutely stunning expression of the 2021 vintage. Our goal was to balance the rich and chewy tannins from the mountains with the finessed and supple tannins found in the valley and benches. The result is exquisite and seamless with an incredibly layered bouquet. Drink now or hold, but for those with the patience, this wine will truly sing in 2029.
