Cabernet Sauvignon 2023, Oakville, CA
If Oakville is the "Beverly Hills" of Napa Valley, this Cabernet is the one pulling up in a vintage convertible—effortlessly chic, perfectly polished, and harboring just enough power to make things interesting.
Born from two distinct personalities, the sun-drenched, opulent valley floor and the structured, refined western hills—this wine is a masterclass in balance. It’s a 99% Cabernet Sauvignon powerhouse, softened by a 1% "wink" of Merlot that rounds out the edges like a silk lining in a tailored suit.
-
The Vibe: Rich, confident, and unapologetically bold.
-
On the Palate: Expect a velvet-rope entry of blackberry compote and dark plum. The 15.0% alcohol provides a plush, warming weight, while the bright 3.65 pH ensures it stays fresh and vibrant on your tongue rather than feeling heavy.
-
The Finish: Thanks to its time in barrel and tank, the oak is integrated and sophisticated—think toasted vanilla and cigar box rather than a campfire. The 6.1g/L acidity provides a clean, lingering finish that begs for another sip (or a dry-aged ribeye).
It's a great choice to pair with seared steak, lamb chops, roasted vegetables, pastas and charcuterie boards It can also be enjoyed by itself, allowing the rich flavors and aromas to unfold with each sip.
