Spiced and minty nose with blackberry, blackcurrant, blue flower, licorice and cedar notes. Full-bodied with lush, succulent fruit and velvety tannins. Ripe and concentrated, with a flavorful, dark-fruited finish. Rich and mellow.

The 2022 Pine Ridge Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a picture-perfect snapshot of what this valley does with the Cab grape. This wine exhibits aromas and flavors of concentrated blackberries, shadings of oak, and a suggestion of flowers. Put a thick ribeye on the grill and enjoy the pairing.
Winemaker Notes
An enticing mélange of baking spices intermingled with the mouth-watering aromas of a cherry raspberry compote demands a more in-depth sensory experience. Multiple, varied flavors of cranberry sauce, oven baked shortbread and strawberry jam explode on the palate, culminating in a sweet, juicy, round mid-palate. The acidic backbone provides focus to the lush texture of the wine and drives forward toward notes of vanilla and molasses. These meld nicely with aromatics of fresh blueberries, framed by the soft tannin finish. This wine is very quaffable now and will benefit from cellaring for the next 10 years.
Well-seasoned beer can chicken, with mashed potatoes and grilled broccolini would be a welcome pairing to rival the bountiful fruit contained in this wine.
Blend: 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 7% Petite Sirah, 5% Malbec
