Deep and dark, with aromas of blackberries, currants, licorice, spices and cedar. The palate is full-bodied with firm tannins and a fruit-driven finish.

Winemaker Notes

The 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon from Black Stallion Estate Winery captures the essence of Napa Valley’s remarkably balanced growing season. A long, temperate year allowed the fruit to achieve exceptional depth and purity, yielding a wine of both richness and poise. Enticing aromas of blackberry, black currant, cedar, andespresso lead to a palate brimming with ripe black cherry and dark fruit, framed by fine-grained tannins and a vibrant freshness. Full-bodied yet remarkably approachable, this vintage offers a harmonious interplay of intensity and elegance. The finish is generous and long – an eloquent expression of balance, structure, and finesse that has become synonymous with Napa Valley’s finest Cabernets.
