Cask 23 is a blend of fruit from the two flagship vineyards, SLV and Fay. The exact portion from each vineyard varies with each year.
2012 was a ‘textbook’ vintage in Napa, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, resulting in exceptional fruit.
100% Cabernet Sauvignon, fermented in steel, aged in French Oak (95% new) for 21 months. Producer note on the 2012 – “The 2012 CASK 23 combines the signature perfume notes of FAY vineyard with the structure and minerality of S.L.V. The wine opens with pleasing aromas of black cherry, dark plum, espresso and spice. The wine has a rich, ripe fruit entry that leads to a concentrated core of dark fruit (plum, black cherry, dried currant). The palate is expansive, coating the whole mouth with rich fruit, full and sweet tannins and lingering flavors mocha and black tea.”
