2021 Scattered Peaks Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
Winemaker Notes: The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon vintage will be remembered for low yields with intensely flavored, small-sized berries and a smooth and uneventful harvest season. The resulting grapes are packed full of flavor and this smaller berry size will result in another amazing vintage from Napa Valley.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
Tasting Panel - "Blended with 14% Merlot and aged 18 months in (50% new) French oak, the newly released 2021 vintage is a teeth-grabber. Dusty cocoa tannins display an affinity with cedar, wet stone, blackberry, dried violets, and beetroot. Still in its youth, the wine shows much promise."
James Suckling - "Notes of blackberries, cassis, herbs, walnuts and toasted cedar. Medium- to full-bodied, dry and a little chewy with a dusty texture to its tannins. Needs more fruit concentration in the middle, yet it’s fresh and flavorful."
