Though reserved in persona, this offers a deep well of red and black currant preserves laced with tobacco, loam, warm paving stone and savory notes that lend energy and cut. A singed alder frame guides the finish, which shows the succulence of the vintage despite being buried deeply. There’s no bombast at all -- the rare Napa Cabernet that seems intent on discretion -- but this expands easily in the glass while gulping air. Patience will be rewarded. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2030 through 2048.

Pure and nicely defined, with a lilting core of cassis, cherry and plum notes that stream through, keeping touches of tobacco, ink and warm paving stone tucked in the background.

Pleasantly plump and up front in persona, with a pure beam of cassis and cherry puree flanked with subtle tobacco and singed cedar notes. Fresh in finish and ready to go. Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2031.
