Color

In the glass, this Cabernet Sauvignon Napa wine shows a deep garnet core with vibrant purple hues at the rim, signaling concentration and youthful vitality.

Aroma

The nose is layered and inviting, opening with ripe cherries, pomegranate, pluots, and bramble berries. As the wine evolves, darker notes of cassis, black cherry, and plum emerge, accented by warm baking spices, leather, fine pipe tobacco, espresso bean, and dark cacao. A signature Rutherford loamy earth nuance adds authenticity and terroir-driven complexity, a hallmark of Sequoia Grove wine.

Taste

On the palate, the entry of Sequoia Grove Cabernet is smooth and lush, unfolding into a richly textured, medium-to-full-bodied profile. Juicy black raspberries and blackberry jam are balanced by dry herbs, black pepper, and subtle tobacco. Aged for 18 months in 55% new French oak, the wine delivers polished, velvety tannins with refined cocoa powder grip and excellent mid-palate depth. Fresh acidity and energetic structure carry the flavors through a long, elegant finish, making this Sequoia Grove Cabernet both immediately appealing and cellar-worthy.
