WINEMAKER NOTES

“Blueprint Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 is bright, rich and full of personality. Deep purple in color, it has captivating aromas of boysenberry, black cherry and black raspberry. The flavors include blueberry, red currant, and blackberry. Youthful, exuberant and plush, this wine truly reflects the wonderful growing season in the exceptional 2021 Napa Valley vintage.” —Philippe Melka & Maayan Koschitzky, winemakers

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Blueprint comes from multiple vineyards across the Napa Valley but draws most heavily upon Rutherford. The separate lots are blended after approximately 12 months in barrel, then allowed to marry for a few months prior to bottling. Fruit-forward scents of blueberries, cassis and black cherries mark the nose, while the balanced, medium to full-bodied palate is silky, fine and elegant, with just the right amount of ripe, savory tannins on the finish.

Baked fruits and toasty oak aromas lead to richly layered blackberries, blueberries and cocoa in this full-bodied and warmly tannic wine. Aged in 50% new French barrels, it is well-structured for aging and has the concentration to match.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Blueprint is brilliant, and readers looking for a great Cabernet Sauvignon under $100 should snatch up bottles. Cassis, blackberries, chocolate, spice, and graphite notes all define the bouquet, and it's medium to full-bodied, with a layered, seamless mouthfeel and a great finish.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Blueprint is packed with fresh blueberry, lavender, cloves, licorice and chocolate. Juicy and medium in body, this flavorful, vibrant Cabernet delivers the goods. Savory and floral notes linger on the close. As always, the Blueprint is a blend taken from various sites.

Aromas of black cherries, brambles and vanilla bean followed by ground cloves, tobacco and a hint of eucalyptus. Full-bodied with moderate acidity and firm and juicy tannins. Underlying graphite notes on the palate.
