The 2021 Brilliant Mistake Cabernet Sauvignon is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from vineyards in Rutherford and Oakville. Longer hang times, thinner canopies and a slight increase in new French oak delivers a rich, full-bodied wine with a dense purple color. Nuanced notes of creme de cassis, lead pencil, spice box, and flowers. The palette has a rock-solid structure of grainy tannins supporting the muscular, crunchy blue-black fruits, finishing long and lively.
Gorgeous cassis, chalky minerality, tobacco, and darker chocolate notes all emerge from the Brilliant Mistake 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, a medium to full-bodied, concentrated, classic, layered Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Brought up in 80% new barrels, it has ample upfront appeal, yet there's a balanced, classical style here and it will age
