The 2022 Martin Ray Synthesis is a complex wine with excellent staying power. This wine is beautifully balanced and long on the palate. Pair it with grilled lamb chops. 

Tasting Notes

Deep and polished with plum, fresh cherry and marionberry with touches of cassis and clove. Vibrant red fruits layered with dried sage and cedar. Full and steadfast, its bright acidity is balanced by well-integrated tannins, with a hint of cocoa and earth on the finish.

Winemaker Notes

Our flagship Cabernet, Synthesis is blended to showcase the nuances of the Napa Valley floor counterbalanced by the structure and tertiary notes of the mountains. Always quintessential Napa, it truly depicts the breadth of the appellation and distinctness of the vintage.

Blend: 98.5% Cabernet, 1.5% Merlot
