2021 Baker & Hamilton (by Vine Hill Ranch) Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville
“Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon comes skipping out of the glass with bright, cheery scents of kirsch, black raspberries, red roses, and clove oil with suggestions of sandalwood and dusty soil. The full-bodied palate is electric with tension and energetic red and black fruit layers, supported by fine-grained tannins, finishing long and minerally.” -Lisa-Perrotti-Brown The Wine Independent
James Suckling
A balance and beauty of red fruits with black berries, black currants and black cherries with some flowers. It’s medium-bodied with firm and refined tannins that give this wine presence yet it’s so refined and harmonious making you want to drink it now. It will age beautifully but no reason really to age it.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon also comes from more blocks in the estate vineyard compared to 2020 (due to a strict selection,) and it can be thought of as a second wine for the estate. All Cabernet Sauvignon, it sports a deep purple hue to go with a vibrant nose of cassis and ripe blue fruits as well as spring flowers, violets, and chocolate. Medium to full-bodied, nicely balanced, and elegant on the palate, it's beautifully layered and has a great finish.
