“The 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakview Vineyard is all Clone 4, with just a splash of Petit Verdot (2%). Cedary oak accents black cherries, picking up hints of dusty loam and dried spices with additional air. It's medium- to full-bodied, somewhere between silky and velvety in texture and pretty approachable already but with the concentration to take it through the next 15 years.”
