Winemaking Notes

The 2021 Amici Napa Cabernet Sauvignon is a powerful, rich, and beautifully balanced wine. Dense aromas of dark cherry and plum are accented by hints of cocoa and creme de cassis. The full-bodied palate presents notes of ripe blackberry, dark chocolate, baking spices, and toasty oak. Silky tannins are laced throughout the long finish, promising beautiful ageability for years to come.

Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, The Wine Palate

The 2023 Napa County Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 4% Malbec, and 4% Petite Sirah. Deep garnet-purple colored, it charges out with notes of cassis, black plums, and pencil shavings, followed by hints of camphor, black olives, and crushed rocks. Medium to full-bodied, the palate delivers energetic black fruit layers with a firm, grainy texture and great tension, finishing long and savory. YUM!
