Note di degustazione
Classic scents of cassis and pencil shavings mark the nose of Snowden's 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Brothers Vineyard, which also includes 1% Petit Verdot. Despite being labeled at 15% alcohol, it comes across as balanced and well-proportioned, with ripe—but not overripe—flavors and tannins, a smooth, velvety mouthfeel and a lush, lingering finish. It's even reasonably priced by Napa Cab standards.

Full bottle 1,307 g. 99% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Petit Verdot. Aged 19 months in French oak, 30% new. 332 cases produced. Deep purple. Lovely savoury smokiness with black cherry and bramble. Fine tannin but quite a lot of it. Perfectly balanced acidity. Lingering smoky spice on the finish. The lighter weight and freshness makes this stand out from the other Napa Cabernets in this line-up. Very drinkable. (SCJ)
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Brothers Vineyard is dark and brooding in feel. Black cherry, plum, new leather, spice and espresso are front and center. Here, the fruit profile leans toward the darker end of the spectrum, and the oak imprint is quite a bit stronger. Rough, angular contours on the finish need time to meld together, but there is good substance throughout.
