Product Overview
Winery's Notes:
"The 2022 Blueprint Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet with purple edges, revealing vibrant aromas of black and Bing cherry and boysenberry. Flavors follow in step, adding blue and red fruits with notes of cocoa, black olive and sage. It is richly-layered with wonderful freshness and bright energy. Finely-balanced, long and immediately drinkable, this is fully representative of the challenging but ultimately successful 2022 vintage."

94 Points - Wine Advocate:
"The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Blueprint comes from multiple vineyards across the Napa Valley but draws most heavily upon Rutherford. The separate lots are blended after approximately 12 months in barrel, then allowed to marry for a few months prior to bottling. Fruit-forward scents of blueberries, cassis and black cherries mark the nose, while the balanced, medium to full-bodied palate is silky, fine and elegant, with just the right amount of ripe, savory tannins on the finish. In the context of Napa Valley Cabernet, it's a terrific value." -JC, 1/31/24
