Tasting note
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon should present black cherry, cassis and dark plum, with a subtle herbal note framing the aroma. The 2021 Cult is expected to feel dense and firm, its tannins lending grip while a fresh seam of acidity keeps the ripe fruit focused. Earliest maturity is placed in 2028, developing into a strong stretch from 2030 to 2044 before a horizon of 2053; expect a long, dry finish with cedar and spice emerging gradually.
