GUINIGI

Heir Apparent 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon, Rutherford, Napa Valley ($165)

The wine beckons with soulful dark chocolate, blueberry and plum with a layer of freshly grated nutmeg. Aged for 22 months in 60% New French Oak barrels, it has an intoxicating aroma that could only be described as lush. Blanketing the tongue with sumptuous tannins, it is teeming with juicy overripe raspberry, tobacco leaf, and piquant herbs.
