Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2022 Mt. Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon captures the intensity and concentration typical of a warm growing season, while still delivering the mountain vineyard’s hallmark structure and complexity. The nose is expressive and layered, offering a heady bouquet of dark chocolate, black plum, and ripe blackberry, wrapped in nuances of crushed violets, espresso bean, and warm baking spices. Subtle hints of spiced oak and graphite add depth and intrigue. The palate is powerful yet refined, with dense dark fruit flavors intertwined with bittersweet cocoa, mountain minerality and a touch of vanilla. The tannins are robust and finely grained, providing a firm backbone that promises aging potential, while the rich mid-palate texture is lifted by fresh acidity, maintaining balance and poise.
