Ruby. Dark fruits, blackberries, plums, fruit driven and fruit forward, detailed nose, not overly ripe, just precise fruit. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, elegant body and texture, nuanced, refreshing, ripe, nuanced and long. Very seductive and truly elegant for Napa.

A very minerally and subtle wine with blueberry, blackberry and lemon rind. Some saltiness. Full to medium body, balanced and refined. Delicious already but shows wonderful tension and finesse. Drink or hold.
A deep, inky wine, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon is endowed with serious depth. Here the flavors are unusually dark and intense, with plenty of blue and black stone fruits. Graphite, cloves and licorice contribute to an overall impression of gravitas. Far from an easygoing wine, the 2013 Napa Valley Cabernet needs time in bottle to truly shine. Hints of violet, lavender and plum add the final shades of nuance. All of the signatures of the vintage come through beautifully. The translucent, mineral-laced finish is especially appealing. Frankly, it's hard to put the glass down.
The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is a stunner. Still quite deep and potent, the 2013 is endowed with explosive energy and tons of sheer depth. Black fruit, gravel, spice, licorice and incense flesh out in an impossibly young, backward Cabernet. The 2013 can be enjoyed now, but there is no rush to enjoy this remarkable offering, as the aromatics are just beginning to soften, and tannins have melted away a bit. I loved this on release and love it just as much today.

Cathy Corison is one of Napa’s leading lights – a matriarch of the region who crafts defiantly elegant Cabernet Sauvignon from her old vines on the benchland between Rutherford and St Helena. These refined, long-ageing wines are some of Napa’s most impressive.
