2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Suscol Springs Napa Valley
The 2021 Suscol Springs Cabernet boasts a broad spectrum of concentrated fruits, including black plum and fig, finishing with a touch of mocha. The effort to develop roots in the rocky soils at our Suscol Springs estate overlooking the valley floor creates beneficial stress that causes vines to yield smaller berries of great concentration, balanced acidity, and supple tannins.
This vineyard also experiences warm, sunny days and cool breezes—perfect conditions for ripening Cabernet Sauvignon to beautiful varietal expression with rich color and intensely concentrated flavors.
