2021 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley
Combining our top wine lots from both Fig Tree & Pocai Vineyards, we are very excited about this release. Crafting small production wines like these really can display what our farming and vineyards can do. Plums and black currant lead this full-bodied concentrated wine. With herbaceous notes, baking spices, and mocha, the wine is lush with well-rounded tannins. A nice decant will open the wine and display all of the beautiful nuances.

Wine Profile
Awards
"The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve ratchets everything up a notch. Heady red and black fruits, chocolate, spicy oak, and chocolate notes all define this rich, medium to full-bodied, concentrated effort. It's easily the ripest and most opulent in the lineup and brings loads of fruit and texture. I love its purity
and would drink bottles over the coming decade." Jeb Dunnuck
"Fruity and dark with blackberries, dark plums, dried herbs, cloves, and pencil lead. Full-bodied with plush tannins. Muscular and dark, compact and well-driven with a flavorful finish with excellent length." James Suckling
Vineyard Notes
We combine the best of our vineyards in this wine. Each year our properties express themselves slightly differently, and our role is to take the best of what they give us and craft a truly exceptional wine. The Pocai Ranch generally brings power, boldness & dark red fruits, while our Fig Tree Vineyard provides the broadness and the layers of flavors and spice. We manage each site specific to its unique characteristics, with the goal of only producing the highest quality grapes and resulting wine.
