Product details
A benchmark release from a legendary Napa Valley estate, this 2022 vintage embodies decades of obsessive attention to site and selection. Sourced from a tiny, meticulously tended block of vines on well-drained loam and gravel, the liquid reflects hand-harvested fruit sorted at the parcel level and matured with careful attention to balance and texture. Bottled in very limited quantities, it presents a concentrated, structured profile that speaks of place — powerful yet refined, with flawless presentation and a pedigree that collectors and connoisseurs prize.
On the nose it offers an intense core of dark berry—blackcurrant and wild blackberry—lifted by a streak of floral lift and graphite minerality. The entry is silky, quickly revealing firm, sculpted tannins and bright, refined acidity that give the midpalate both power and poise. Layered notes of cassis, black cherry, cacao nib, and a savory undercurrent of cedar and mineral complexity unfold, finishing long, precise, and mouthcoating. This is a texturally commanding release that combines depth, freshness, and age-worthy structure.
