Vineyard 29 Cabernet Sauvignon Ceanda Napa Valley 2022

“The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon CEANDA, a blend from the Aida and Vineyard 29 sites, is terrific. Pliant and layered, with terrific persistence, the 2022 is impressive. Dark-toned fruit, new leather, chocolate and spice fill out the layers as soft tannins wrap it all together. CEANDA is usually a 50/50 mix of the sites, but the 2022 is 70% Aida, which shows the wine's textural build.”

“A blend assembled from the estate's vineyards, the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Ceanda matured 20 months in 70% new French oak, leaving it marked by vanilla, cedar and black cherries. It's medium to full-bodied and noticeably woody, with the oak acting to add freshness to the fruit. It's a solid effort to drink over the next decade.”
