The 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Tomahawk Vineyard was aged for 18 months in 60–70% new French oak. This site sits at the southernmost end of the estate, producing a wine that is rich, ripe, and powerful. Dark black and blue fruit compote is layered with graphite, liquorice, and elegant cedarwood notes. The palate is driven by a spicy mineral-acid tension, with intense, chocolatey tannins that provide remarkable staying power. Emerging graphite, sage, white pepper, and hints of cumin add depth and complexity, leading to a long, structured finish.

Smoky black fruits, graphite, leafy tobacco, and a Graves-like cold fireplace character all define the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Tomahawk Vineyard, a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon that's medium to full-bodied, has a pure, layered, elegant mouthfeel, beautiful tannins, and a great finish. Raised in 70% new French oak, it's a balanced, nicely structured 2022 that defies the vintage. It's going to benefit from 2-4 years in the cellar and see its 20th birthday in fine form. It's a classy, elegant, textbook Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon with tons to love.
93 Points James Suckling
The nose is deep and brooding, with aromas of blackcurrants, cassis and roasted game meat. The palate is full-bodied with fine tannins and acidity, giving notes of blackberry compote, spices and tobacco leaves. Very savory and dark. Drink or hold.
