Crafted from a selection of the finest estate blocks in the iconic S.L.V. and Fay vineyards, the 2019 vintage reflects Napa's ideal "long growing season" following a cool spring—yielding deeply concentrated fruit and elegant structure after 21 months in new French oak barrels at 14.8% ABV.

Medium to full-bodied yet impeccably silky and refined, this magnum offers velvety tannins, ripe blackberry and currant flavors, and a lively, mouthwatering finish. Its structure is robust but never heavy.

"Approximately 10% of the wine that went into the 2019 Cask 23 Cabernet Sauvignon was barrel fermented, so expect experimentation in that area to continue. The wine is a terrific example of this cuvée, offering tantalizing floral aromas set against a backdrop of ripe cherries and black cherries. It's medium to full-bodied, intense, rich and ripe, yet still silky and elegant, with a vibrant, mouthwatering finish." Robert Parker 96 Points
