"The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon comes mostly from estate fruit and checks in as 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% each of Malbec and Petit Verdot, and the rest Merlot and Cabernet Franc. There are around 10,000 cases, so you should be able to find bottles, and I suspect it's going to be a great value. Giving up lots of jammy blackberries, tobacco, sweet oak, and subtle cassis, it's medium to full-bodied, has a round, delicious style, and the balance and structure to evolve for 10-15 years."
