Harvested from the gravelly, well-draining soils of Rutherford, the Nickel & Nickel Cabernet Sauvignon DeCarle Vineyard 2023 delivers the iconic depth and signature dustiness of its single-vineyard origin. Aromatics of dark cassis, wild blackberry, and cedar chest emerge from the glass, accompanied by a subtle citrusy complexity featuring dried blood orange peel and bergamot. On the palate, the wine is perfectly calibrated, harmonizing ripe plum, black cherry, and cocoa powder with warm graphite and savory spice notes. Underpinned by a rich, velvety architecture and classic Rutherford dust fine-grained tannins, this benchmark Napa Valley red concludes with a long, elegant, and persistent finish.
