The 2021 growing season in Napa Valley was marked by a moderate and consistent climate, with mild temperatures. Despite the ongoing drought, which led to reduced yields, the quality of the fruit was outstanding. The drought conditions necessitated careful irrigation management, but the result was small berries with intense layers and beautifully plush tannins. The 2021 vintage is considered one of the best in recent memory, with wines displaying bright acidity, purity, and intense concentration—a winemaker’s dream.
Prepare to be captivated by explosive aromatics of freshly ground white and black peppercorns, black and red currants, blackberries, black and red cherry, and raspberries. Subtle yet impactful notes of freshly roasted coffee, dark cocoa, clove, nutmeg, and the evocative aroma of freshly rolled cigars create a multi-layered bouquet that is both sophisticated and inviting. On the palate, each sip offers an experience of powerful yet velvety tannins that seamlessly integrate with bright notes of white pepper, black currant, black cherry, raspberry, and red cherry. The wine's texture is enriched with dark cocoa and a hint of black tea leaf, cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove, reminiscent of a Black Forest chocolate cake that leaves you longing for more with every sip.
