2022 Odette Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, stags leap district

The 2022 Odette Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Stags Leap District, offers notes of freshly baked cinnamon rolls and blueberry pancakes hot off the griddle. The vintage’s heat is reflected in an aromatic school of Red Swedish Fish with a splash of graphite minerality. On the palate, layers of juicy raspberry, candied walnut, and cola ride fine-grain tannins to a mouth-watering finish of vanilla, toasted oak, and cacao.
