The 2022 Adaptation Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of unique vineyard sites that capture the Napa Valley’s exceptional diversity and reveal the complexity of Cabernet Sauvignon in an approachable, elegant style. The backbone comes from our newest estate vineyard, Oso, which delivers an abundance of rich fruit flavor, color, and tannin. The wine beckons with bright notes of ripe raspberry, candied lingonberry, and savory sage. As it unfurls in glass, brambly blackberry and blueberry dominate the stage, supported by sautéed shiitake mushroom, black pepper, and a flash of icy mint. Inviting acidity ushers classic flavors of cassis and plum, folded into svelte tannins layered with damp granite, vanilla, and rich Cadbury chocolate dusted with chai spices.
