Tasting Notes

The 2023 Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon opens with expressive aromas of black cherry, fig, cedar, and warm baking spices, showing both richness and lift that reflect the character of the vintage. On the palate, it is medium to fullbodied with lively acidity, polished tannins, and a seamless texture that carries flavors of black currant, pine, olive, and forest floor into an opulent, mineraltinged finish. This combination of mountain intensity and Napa Valley elegance makes it an excellent partner for grilled ribeye, braised short ribs, herbcrusted lamb, roasted mushrooms, or aged cheeses, where its structure and darkfruit depth complement savory, richly textured dishes.
