Prepare to be captivated by the 2021 1886 Cabernet Sauvignon—dark, brooding, and bursting with enticing aromas of crushed blackberries, red cassis, and a hint of hibiscus, all intertwined with smoky paprika. On the palate, this wine is sleek and sophisticated, offering a long, structured finish with notes of steeped flowers, berry compote, and hoisin sauce. The 2021 vintage shines in Napa, where a dry winter and warm spring produced small, intensely concentrated berries, resulting in a wine of exquisite finesse that will age beautifully over the decades. With a remarkable 15.2% alcohol content and 20 months of careful barrel aging, this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is set to reveal more flavors with each passing year.
