Product details
The producer behind this 2023 limited edition has crafted a bold reinterpretation of its signature varietal, Cabernet Sauvignon, drawing fruit from the renowned St. Helena region and presenting it with a modern, expressive edge. Aptly named “The Horse,” this release celebrates the Year of the Horse, symbolizing strength, vitality, and forward momentum. Embracing a philosophy of accessibility without compromise, the label merges Napa Valley pedigree with a lively, contemporary character. The bottle’s elegant design—confident yet refined—reflects the ambition of taking distinguished terroir and channeling it into a creation that feels both rooted and vibrant.
On the palate, this 2023 expression opens with lush dark berries and subtly sweet plum, layered with notes of toasted oak and cassis. Mid-palate richness is balanced by structured yet polished tannins, creating an impression of depth and grace. Hints of dark chocolate and espresso bean unfold, followed by red cherry and a whisper of graphite that lingers through the finish. The result is a smooth, powerful, and enduring experience—one that perfectly embodies the spirited energy of the horse it honors.
