Venge Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Igneous Kenefick Ranch Vineyard Calistoga Napa Valley 2022

“Full-bodied charm, mixed fruits, sweet vanilla, and mineral lines bring the rich, lavish, and structural verve of Venge Cabernet clothed in oak spices and cocoa. Striking tannins are balanced by mouthwatering length through a long finish.”

“The Igneous Cabernet Sauvignon was aged for 22 months in 70% new French oak, showcasing the ripe, fruit-forward character of grapes grown in Calistoga. Lush and expressive, it delivers juicy red and black fruits, layered with warm mulled spices and mineral-laced berry tones. The saline-rich finish adds depth and balance, making for a vibrant yet structured expression of Calistoga Cabernet. Nils Venge founded the brand in 1992 with the first vintage of Venge Vineyards. His son, Kirk Venge, began making the wines in 2003 and officially took over the brand in 2008, carrying forward its legacy of quality and craftsmanship.”
