The 2021 Purlieu Missouri Hopper Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon in Magnum (1.5L) is the definitive collector's format for one of Purlieu's most commanding and celebrated single-vineyard expressions — a wine of extraordinary richness, single-vineyard Oakville grandeur, and the concentrated, age-worthy Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon character that the Missouri Hopper Vineyard delivers with breathtaking consistency and ambition. The magnum format, long prized by collectors and connoisseurs for its ideal ratio of wine volume to oxygen exposure during aging, allows the 2021 Missouri Hopper to evolve with even greater grace and complexity than the standard bottle: the wine develops more slowly, more harmoniously, and ultimately more profoundly in the larger format, making this 1.5L the ideal choice for those who wish to cellar a monument to one of California's finest recent growing seasons and one of Napa Valley's most exceptional Cabernet vineyard sites. The Missouri Hopper Vineyard's Oakville terroir, the 2021 vintage's extraordinary quality, and the magnum format's aging advantages combine to make this bottle one of the most compelling and cellar-worthy offerings in the Maison Fayard portfolio: aromas of dense blackberry, blackcurrant, graphite, cedar, crushed violets, dark chocolate, and iron mineral lead to a massively concentrated yet beautifully balanced palate and a finish of extraordinary length.
