2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, Mustard Hill, Oakville

The 2021 Haas Cabernet Sauvignon, Knights Valley.  This Cabernet Sauvignon features a deep purple-blue hue and has a beautiful nose classic aroma of ripe black cherry, and black fruits, cranberry, fresh herbs, and cigar box. Rich and deep on the palate, the flavor profile is brimming with engaging notes of dark cherry, boysenberry, wild berries and layers of spice, tar, leather and graphite. Generous and full-bodied, and complimented with soft tannins, this wine has firm structure and a long, persistent finish. The end result is a wine that not only tastes great now, but worthy of aging in the cellar for more than a decade. Power, grace, and elegance are in every sip.

The 2020 Rutherford TADDEI Block does not disappoint.  Following in the footsteps of its older brothers, the vineyard continues to kick out great vintages. In a vintage that was very trying, this little gem stood out. The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon has aromatics that express raspberry, Bing cherry, leather, cigar and pencil lead. On the pallet, the wine is very consistent between vintages with copious amounts of cherry, crushed plum and leather with exceptionally soft tannins. The vineyard continues to produce fruit that possess rich flavors coupled with dusty elements and soft tannin.

2018 Rutherford TADDEI Block sits on the Rutherford Bench almost directly across from Alpha Omega.  The vineyard is approximately three quarters of an acre, and we farm the fruit at approximately two tons an acre. I lightly saingee this fruit only to adjust alcohol and pH.  I love the profile of the Rutherford dirt and I do what I can to preserve it in the wine.  2018 was the first vintage I processed fruit from the block, and often it takes two or three vintages to figure out how to handle the vineyard. I really love this little block and in 2018 the wine shows lovely flavors of plum, cherry and leather on the pallet with soft tannins.  The nose has a floral characteristic to it with notes of dark stone fruits. The wines finish is very smooth with hints f leather, espresso and dark fruit.
