Description

The Palmaz family carved an 18-story gravity-flow winery into Mount George so their Cabernet never touches a pump, from crush all the way to bottle. Nobody else in Napa goes that far. The 2018 comes from a textbook growing season and shows it: blackberry and huckleberry depth, currant and cassis on the palate, bright acidity holding everything in line. It drinks more like a well-bred Bordeaux than a Napa bruiser. Serious wine from serious people, and it ages beautifully.
