2022 Metzker Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
The 2022 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon blend of Howell Mountain and Sage Ridge Cabernet offers bold concentration and plush ripeness. Aromas of black cherry, dried herbs, and warm spice lead to a dense palate of cassis, blackberry compote, dark chocolate, and crushed rock. The heat spike accelerated flavor development, yielding opulent texture and ripe tannins, while mountain acidity brings lift and balance. This is a powerful, fruit-driven vintage with polish and structure.
