The 2022 Récoltant Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine that declares its philosophy in its name: "récoltant" — French for "grower" or "harvester" — speaks directly to a wine made with the hands-on, estate-minded, grower-centric approach that prioritizes vineyard integrity, terroir expression, and the authentic voice of the land over stylistic convention or commercial formula. In the tradition of the great grower-producers of Champagne and Burgundy who insist on controlling every step from vine to bottle, Récoltant Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine of genuine provenance, natural character, and the kind of honest, terroir-driven personality that wine lovers who care about where their bottle comes from will immediately recognize and appreciate. The 2022 Napa Valley growing season, warm and beautifully balanced, produced Cabernet Sauvignon of outstanding natural ripeness and aromatic completeness. In the glass: aromas of ripe blackcurrant, dark cherry, cedar, graphite, warm spice, and mocha lead to a full-bodied, supple palate of excellent concentration, polished tannins, and a long, confident finish of genuine grower Napa Valley Cabernet character and distinction.
