Tasting notes
A blend selected from the property's various estate vineyards, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Ceanda highlights cassis and black cherry fruit, limned in cedar and vanilla. Fresh, vibrant and medium to full-bodied, it combines ripeness, freshness and concentration in an elegant whole, framed by fine-grained, silky tannins and capped off by a lingering finish. In Napa terms, the 2021 Ceanda bottling is actually a decent value.

Brought up in 75% new barrels and based on Cabernet Sauvignon, with 4% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Ceanda has lots of red, blue, and black fruits as well as graphite, liquid violets, and background oak. It's medium to full-bodied, has some firmer yet nicely integrated tannins, a lush mouthfeel, and solid length on the finish.
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon CEANDA is a blend from the Aida and Vineyard 29 estate vineyards. Readers will have to give this a few years in bottle, as the 2021 is incredibly tight today. Super-ripe red cherry, blood orange, spice, new leather and tobacco race across the palate, framed by driving, incisive tannins that wrap it all together. (AG)
