92 Points, Wine Enthusiast

Rich, full-bodied with flavors of black currant, red plums, and cassis, followed by oak notes of cedar and vanilla and enticing oak spice.  Dark flavors produce a lush and velvety textured of ripe black plums, dark cherries, cocoa and mint flavors fill the mouth that combine with supple tannins and leads to a long silky finish.  Enjoy now through 2030.

VINEYARD

Located in the foothills of Sonoma Valley, this storied estate hillside vineyard rubs shoulders with some of the finest terroirs in Sonoma County, such as Bismark, Rancho Salina, and is adjacent to the famous Monte Rosso Vineyard.  The Caton Vineyard is defined by its sustainable farming and belief that healthier vineyards produce unique and distinctive wines.  The vineyards have multiple sun exposures, soil types, and vary in altitude over 300 feet between each other.  Their meticulous farming practices showcase the love for the land and a passion for the wines that come from it.

VINTAGE

The 2021 harvest is reported to be one of the best vintages in recent harvests for Northern California. The ongoing draught presented some challenges - limited rainfall and warm growing conditions throughout the summer months resulted in a speedy harvest with lighter yields. The conditions brought smaller berries with exceptional- quality and concentrated flavors.

Ruby-plum core with a light purple rim in the glass, with aromas of dark cherry, plum, spicy cola and black tea waft from the glass.  The palate delivers all of that and then some, adding layers of fig jam, white peppercorn and baking spice.  Firm juicy tannins and balanced acidity round it out.

Aromas of cocoa mingle with notes of cassis, black cherry, blackberry coulis, graphite, toasted vanilla, and a hint of cedar.  The palate is harmonious as the richness of barrel spice melds seamlessly with juicy plum, blackberry and licorice flavors.  An incredibly polished texture, even at a young age.   Long and expressive with loads of flavor.

Rich, bold & spicy. Deep garnet colored in the glass.  The nose gives loads of blackberry, plum, fresh raspberry and peppery aromas, while the palate delivers juicy berry compote, cassis, caramel and black pepper flavors before a rich, tannic finish. Four to five years in the cellar will round this out nicely.
