2022 Throwback Cabernet Sauvignon

2022 Throwback – Napa Valley

At the core of the 2022 Throwback blend is Cabernet Sauvignon, delivering the structure, depth, and bold varietal character that define this wine each year. In 2022, the Cabernet Sauvignon expressed exceptional concentration, offering layers of dark fruit, cassis, blackcurrant, and black cherry, framed by firm yet polished tannins. Its power and precision evoke the classic styling of Left Bank Bordeaux, with a long, confident finish that promises excellent ageability.

Cabernet Franc once again plays a vital supporting role, contributing lift, energy, and aromatic finesse. The 2022 vintage highlights the grape’s hallmark notes of graphite and crushed violets, along with subtle herbal undertones that add dimension and brightness. Its presence enhances the wine’s complexity and complements the richness of the Cabernet Sauvignon.

Merlot rounds out the 2022 blend with its signature plushness and approachability. This vintage brings generous flavors of ripe plum, dark cherry, and a touch of cocoa, lending a supple mid-palate that integrates seamlessly with the structure of the other varietals. The Merlot softens the wine’s edges and contributes to a harmonious, beautifully balanced profile.

The 2022 Throwback is a refined yet powerful expression of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvigon,  ayered, expressive, and crafted to honor the timeless blends that inspired its name.
