Post & Beam Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is a beautifully crafted wine that reflects the winemaker's attention to detail and dedication to quality. This exceptional wine is made from grapes grown in the finest vineyards in California, where the warm, sunny days and cool, breezy nights create ideal growing conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon.
The nose of this wine is filled with aromas of wild raspberry preserves, which are complemented by hints of clove and confectionery spice. On the palate, the wine is round and textured, with soft red fruit flavors that are layered with leather, cassis, and elegant botanical accents. The mid-palate is rich and full-bodied, with a lovely balance of fruit and tannins, while the finish is long and satisfying, with notes of toasted espresso beans that linger on the tongue.
Post & Beam is an excellent choice for those who appreciate a well-balanced, elegant wine that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a wide variety of foods. It is perfect with grilled meats, hearty stews, and flavorful cheeses, or simply enjoyed on a quiet evening at home.
Critic Ratings
Tasting Panel Review - Rated 95:
Richly appointed, with dark blue and purple fruit and a plush mouthfeel. Notes of plum liqueur and freshly roasted coffee grace the palate as dark chocolate and anise entwine with the wine's well-defined structure and satin-lined tannins. Spiced red tea and sandalwood engage with more chocolate on the finish.
Wine Enthusiast Review - Rated 92:
Sour cherry, cherry tobacco and dry cocoa freshened by a mineral graphite element carry this Cabernet into a juicy, long finish of melting tannins and generous flavor. Approachable amplitude makes for a crowd-pleasing and delicious wine.
James Suckling Review - Rated 90:
A fresh, fruit-forward and easily accessible Napa cabernet with notes of plums, red cherries and eucalyptus. The palate is medium-bodied with vibrant acidity and soft tannins giving notes of blackberries, cassia bark and orange zest.
