    Fresh and peachy on the nose, with hints of meadow flowers and clean minerals. Medium-bodied with vivid acidity, giving a more apricot and macadamia-nut character on the palate. Crisp, fruity finish.

    Decanter Magazine 94 Rating
    The 2021 Merryvale Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from their 10-hectare Profile Estate Vineyard in Conn Valley and the Oak Knoll District. The grapes undergo fermentation on skins for up to 21 days before being drained into a barrel and aged for 16 months in 50% new French oak. This elegant and compact wine has gorgeous savory notes of tobacco and wild sage woven through layers of black cherry, blackberry, and spiced plum. Medium- to full-bodied, it is exceptionally pure and precise, with polished, superfine tannins that lay a firm and compact foundation. Beautifully balanced, this Cabernet is easy to enjoy thanks to the integrity and refinement of its tannin structure, complemented by sumptuous and succulent dark fruit and spices. Its Old-World character is imbued with the ripe, dark-fruited, and fragrant profile of sun-ripened California grapes—a stunning example of craftsmanship and terroir.

    So much ripe damson-plum and blackberry fruit, but also notes of licorice, candied ginger and baking spices. In spite of all the considerable power and concentration, this is anything but loud or domineering, rather it tastes very poised and precise. Very long finish with pronounced stony character. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. R23-1

    A powerhouse of a wine that flirts with perfection, the 2019 Hermitage reveals a dense purple hue as well as an extraordinary bouquet of sweet blue fruits supported by notes of crushed stone, lead pencil, leather, and ground pepper, with hints of flowers in the background. Full-bodied, stunningly pure, and massively concentrated, yet with riveting precision and elegance, it needs to be hidden in the back of the cellar for a decade and will evolve for 30, 40, if not 50 years. Tasting the trilogy of the 2018, 2019, and 2020 over the coming decades will be the equivalent of wine nirvana. SP39-9

    An elegant blend, Arbalest displays aromas of graphite, minerality, red plums and boysenberries. The integrated tannins show balanced flavors of kirsch, plums, graphite and cassis.
