The nose is layered and expressive, offering blackcurrant jam, dark cherries, cloves, cedar, dark chocolate, and violets.\n\nThe palate is full-bodied and deeply flavored, echoing the aromatic profile with impressive depth and a striking mineral edge, including hints of crushed stone. The finish is long, refined, and lightly floral, giving the wine a sense of lift and elegance. Built for aging, it should continue to develop beautifully over the coming years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes come from top Napa Valley sites carefully selected and followed by Thomas Rivers Brown himself. Harvested by hand, the fruit is gently pressed and fermented before the wine spends 20 months in French oak barrels, 85% of which are new. The result is a Cabernet that remains generous and concentrated, while retaining freshness, precision, and a clear sense of terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Cabernet Sauvignon is an excellent match for grilled ribeye, braised short ribs, roasted lamb, or rich dishes with mushrooms and herbs.
