Turnbull - Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 750ml

Turnbull Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 captures the true spirit of the estate's farming roots. Rooted in Oakville since 1979, Turnbull crafts wines of integrity that reflect the unique character of their land. Winemaker Peter Heitz approaches this blend with a "dirt-to-bottle" philosophy, ensuring every bottle shares the pure beauty of the place and vintage.

The 2023 growing season was the longest in over a decade for Napa Valley. Mild weather and abundant sunshine allowed for slow ripening, resulting in a wine of unparalleled freshness and elegance. This vintage combines fruit from four distinct estate vineyards. The Leopoldina and Fortuna vineyards in Oakville provide tension and texture, while the Amoenus Vineyard in Calistoga adds dark cherry depth. The historic Home Vineyard anchors the blend with classic structure.

In the glass, delicate fruit esters rise to meet the nose. Aromas of macerated strawberries, red plums, and blackberry compote mix with savory notes of sagebrush and sweet baking spices. On the palate, lively acidity creates a vibrant rhythm. Fine-grained tannins wrap around a dense core of fruit, delivering a finish defined by finesse and purity.
