Vintage: 2016


Tasting Notes

A blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot, and the rest Merlot and Malbec, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon XXII is another gorgeous wine from this estate. Aged 19 months in 52% new French oak, it’s a fresh, nicely focused, medium to full-bodied effort that has classic crème de cassis fruit as well as notes of lead pencil, violets, subtle oak, and a gravelly, earthy minerality. Drink it any time over the coming 15 years or more.
