Wine Description
Lush and aromatic, the 2022 Solari Cabernet Sauvignon bursts from the glass with lovely notes of violets, red plums, and bright blackberry and raspberry jam. Layers of sweet, toasty oak frame are supported by notes of vanilla bean, soft caramel, and subtle warm spices. With time in the glass, hints of cedar, rosemary, and bay laurel lend a savory counterpoint, while delicate florals add elegance, depth and allure.
On the palate, it is velvety and expansive, carrying a supple texture and a luxurious weight. The wine opens with notes of warm vanilla and cassis, balanced by vibrant acidity that keeps the round and rich fruit in perfect balance. The finish is long and resonant, with dark berries, baking spices, espresso and fresh-cut herbs.

Critical Acclaim
Wine Enthusiast
Arguably the flagship of Larkmead red wines, the Solari offers layers of detail, refinement, poise, and pleasing structural tension. Dark fruits clothed in spiced tobacco and an alluring earthiness wash through the mouth on melting tannins and a juicy, long finish.
Wine Advocate
Delicate herbal notes—think dried thyme and possibly sage—accent the red and black cherries found on the nose of Larkmead's 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Solari (Black Label), a selection of mainly older vines from the property. In this case, the fruit handles the new oak beautifully, blending subtle hints of mocha seamlessly into the bouquet. It's full-bodied, round and expansive on the palate, framed by supple, silky tannins and leading into a lingering finish tinged with French roast.
International Wine Report
The 2022 Solari is yet another fantastic release from Larkmead in this vintage. It immediately impresses with its aromatics of ripe red and dark fruits, complemented by floral notes, herbs, gravel and subtle touches of tobacco that gracefully unfold from the glass. This wine showcases remarkable sophistication, with a harmonious balance and refined structure. It is a medium-to-full-bodied red that feels vibrant, fresh, and well-defined, finishing with wonderful clarity. While the 2022 Solari is impressive in its youth, it also possesses the depth and structure to age beautifully for many years to come.
Jeb Dunnuck
All varietal aged 22 months in 81% new barrels, the flagship 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Solari is deeper ruby/plum-hued and reveals a spice, savory perfume of red and black currants, leather, dried herbs, and graphite. A quintessential Calistoga Cabernet, it's medium to full-bodied, has nicely integrated oak, ripe, polished yet building tannins, and a great finish. This spicy, complex, nuanced beauty reminds me of a great Margaux. It should have 15+ years of prime drinking.
James Suckling
Deep aromas of dark cherries, blackcurrants, bitter chocolate, leather and black olives. The palate is full-bodied with a rounded mouthfeel and finely integrated tannins. This is the most polished release from Larkmead in the 2022 vintage, with some lovely freshness and tension underneath the ripe fruit. Drink or hold.

Jo Mojica –
Just sipped the Larkmead Solari and it’s a revelation. It’s got that piper heidsieck rare 2013 vibe, with strong black fruit flavors and a hint of vanilla and chocolate. The tobacco undertones add a surprising twist. It’s a must-try!
Betty Moore –
The Larkmead Solari evokes memories of the champagne piper heidsieck rare. With a robust profile of dark fruit, licorice, and pepper, it’s a wine of complexity. The cedar and coffee undertones are a pleasant surprise. It’s a taste journey from the first sip to the last.
Linda Kaupp –
Larkmead Solari is a wine lover’s dream. Its bold blackberry and cherry notes are reminiscent of a piper heidsieck rare champagne, yet it has a unique earthy depth. A touch of leather and oak permeates every sip, making it a truly exquisite experience.
