Pomegranate, cocoa powder, resin, sleek tannins and energy on a bittersweet finish.
88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot
Wine Advocate Review:
A blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot, the fruit for the 2020 Napanook (like the 2020 Dominus) was picked prior to the start of the Glass Fire on September 27. Scents of redcurrants and cherries lead the way, bolstered by notes of dark chocolate and mocha. It's medium to full-bodied and silky in feel, despite a touch of warmth on the palate, while the long finish picks up a hint of red capsicum and a touch of coarseness. Anticipated Maturity: 2023-20235
