Vineyard Notes
The 2021 growing season started with very little rain, leading to the second year of drought conditions in Napa Valley. The long, warm summer saw few extreme heat waves, and the foggy mornings set the stage for vibrant and expressive wines. The drought of 2021 resulted in a more natural load on the vines, requiring less pruning and dropping of fruit. The resulting grapes are packed full of flavor thanks to smaller yields per vine. In addition, smaller berry size will result in another amazing vintage from Napa Valley.
Production Notes
This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon spent 5 to 7 days in a cold soak to intensify the mountain fruit characteristics, and then was fermented for 25 days in stainless steel tanks. Aged in 70% new French oak for 22 months, it was racked barrel-to-barrel and bottled unfiltered. This extremely age-worthy wine will evolve gradually over the next 20+ years.
Tasting Notes
This Mi Sueño rich, inky pitch-black beautiful color grabs your attention. Aromas of molasses, maraschino cherries, tomato leaf, anise, lavender, fresh forest, and dried plum adding to the suspense. On the plate, you will find juicy blueberries, red licorice, with mouthwatering structure and a finish of cocoa, leather, and a pepper corn finish.
Food Pairing Notes
This wine screams out for an Omaha Filet Mignon with mashed potatoes, or a slice of German chocolate cake. Both will leave you immensely satisfied.
