Priced at $53.95 for a 750ml bottle with an alcohol content of 14.50%, this bold and structured red wine is masterfully crafted by Peju Winery under the expert guidance of winemaker Sara Fowler.
This 2021 vintage, harvested in October 2021 and released in March 2023, is a carefully crafted blend of 97% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Petit Verdot, sourced from the renowned Rutherford region in Napa Valley. The vineyard’s well-drained, gravelly, and sandy loam soils, combined with the region’s warm days and cool nights, create the perfect environment for developing rich flavors and a balanced structure. The unique ‘Rutherford dust’ effect further contributes to the wine’s distinctive mouthfeel and fine tannin profile.
Originating from the United States, specifically California’s North Coast, Napa County, and Napa Valley, this wine is both powerful and elegant. The nose reveals enticing aromas of dried dark berries like blackberry and blackcurrant, enhanced by notes of dark chocolate, vanilla, and a hint of tobacco. The palate is full-bodied with a velvety texture, offering a complex mix of ripe black fruits, mocha, cedar, and a touch of spice, leading to a long, lingering finish with balanced acidity.
Crafted with care, the Peju Cabernet Sauvignon Legacy Collection 2021 matures in a mix of French and American oak, imparting a perfect balance of richness and complexity. Its medium to full-bodied profile is layered with subtle spicy undertones and complex layers of dried red fruit, creating a sophisticated experience on every sip.

Drink after 2022.

Review: MOE – enjoyable.
Amy Lopez –
High-quality ruby wine with ripe cherry, strawberry, licorice, leather, eucalyptus, cedar, and prune flavors. Suitable for aging.

Initially scored 87, lacked depth, better options at same price. After some air time, deeper complexities emerged. 89-90.

Deep ruby color with a bright magenta shade. Aromas of violet, cherry, tobacco leaf, red apple, and vanilla. Dry, smooth palate with chalky acidity and full tannins on the medium-long finish. Simply quaffable.

Deep magenta color. Aroma of pomegranate, brown sugar, vanilla, anise, red currant, and cinnamon. Smooth, dry palate with full, round tannins on medium long finish. Terrific QPR. Easy drinker.
Judy Artis –
Curious about this winemaker, tried their Classic Cali cab with big fruit, round mouthfeel, and long finish. Notes of red fruit, chocolate, and licorice. Holding on to the others to age.

Vanilla/oak and fruit upfront. Good QPR at auction for $35 but not worth full retail ($57).

Donald Butler –
Aging required for 10 years.
Karen Evenson –
Tobacco, spicy, blackberry,
Danny Torres –
Young wine with tannins and fruit, needs more time to breathe. Significant mouthfeel. Could benefit from 5 more years in the bottle for a more complex taste.
Jane Slaybaugh –
Juicy dark currant flavors with a moderate tannic bite. Needs time and hopefully the fruit holds up.
John Mitchell –
Aged 1.5 hours, paired with beef Wellington.

Ruby color with black currant and floral aromas. Mild acidity and emerging tannins. Pleasant, easy drinker with a fair price of $40-50.

Light and easy to drink cab with subtle tannins. Not for those who prefer big Napa cabs.

Enjoyable Napa cab with a fruity yet subtle palate. Lush and fresh without being too bold.
Joelle Nichols –
Medium-bodied with bright red fruit, oak, cassis, cherry, and blood orange. Low/medium tannins with a pleasant finish lasting 20-25 seconds. A good deal at $35 but not worth typical retail price of $50-60. Ready to drink now with 3-5 years remaining in peak window.
Anna Benavidez –
Young and lightly vegetal, but with red and blue fruit shining through. Medium body with plush tannins and strong oak character, but not overdone. A really nice wine and solid value from Napa.

Rich ruby blend with red currents and dried fruit notes. A touch of merlot adds softness. Perfect with NY strip and lobster tail for any celebration.

Medium-bodied fruit-forward Cab with dark fruit, blackberry, vanilla and oak. Balanced and a new favorite at a reasonable price. PNP.
Jennifer Gallo –
Disappointing bottle, lacking in fruit and integration with tannins. Slightly improved on day 2, but still not worth the price.
