Lewelling Wight Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon '20

From a legendary St. Helena site, this Cabernet displays an opaque garnet color with ruby highlights. The nose is profoundly complex - crème de cassis, cedar, and crushed mint leaves emerge with air. The palate is both powerful and refined, with polished tannins carrying flavors of black cherry, dark chocolate, and espresso bean. Aged 22 months in French oak (60% new), it earned 96 points for its depth and longevity. The finish lasts over a minute with evolving spice notes. Decant for herb-crusted rack of lamb or age for another 5-7 years. The Wight Vineyard's gravelly loam soils produce Cabernet of extraordinary concentration and finesse.
