Tasting Notes:
Covering just two and a half acres in Napa Valley’s Oak Knoll District, GnR produces intensely flavored Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep ruby with a magenta rim, aromas of black cherry, fig, mint, and dark chocolate lead to a bold palate of black and blue fruits, plum, pepper, and cedar. Elegant tannins and vibrant acidity highlight its depth. Aged 28 months in 60% new French oak. Only 238 cases produced.

"Aromas of blackberries, cassis, plums, violets, graphite, cedar and dark chocolate. The palate is full-bodied with firm tannins and bright acidity, giving flavors of black currants, dark cherries, tobacco and spices. Structured and concentrated, with freshness and balance. Drink or hold." 92 Points - James Suckling

Vintage Notes: 
The 2021 Napa Valley vintage is defined by low yields, small berries, and a smooth harvest. The second year of drought led to minimal rain, but the vines thrived with less pruning and fruit dropping. Harvest began early, and despite concerns over the drought, the resulting fruit is intensely flavored and concentrated resulting in wines that are focused and full of potential.
