2022 GC22 Reserve Cabernet

This ultra-premium, limited-release Cabernet Sauvignon represents the essence of Napa Valley's most esteemed terroirs, drawn from just three carefully selected barrels from Mt. Veeder, Oakville, and Howell Mountain. The result is a remarkably complex wine with a deep, garnet-black core, reflecting its meticulously crafted nature.

On the nose, there’s a profound bouquet of dark fruits—think blackcurrant, blackberry compote, and crushed blueberries—layered with intriguing notes of cedar, graphite, and crushed rock. Floral hints of violet and lavender add elegance, while subtle tobacco and mocha introduce depth.

The palate is robust yet refined, showcasing the structure and power of Howell Mountain, the opulent mid-palate density from Oakville, and the lush, velvety tannins characteristic of Mt. Veeder. There’s an unfolding complexity here, with flavors of ripe black cherry, black plum, and cassis accented by notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and savory herbs. Fine-grained tannins wrap around a bright, balanced acidity that brings precision and length.

The finish is long and resonant, revealing hints of smoky minerality, licorice, and a touch of vanilla bean. This wine is built to age gracefully for 15-20 years, with layers that will evolve, yielding even greater complexity over time. Perfect for collectors and Cabernet enthusiasts, this bottling is a testament to Napa Valley’s terroir-driven power and finesse.
