Expert Reviews
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Happy Canyon Vineyard RSW opens with bright aromatics and tons of energy to match its sculpted personality. Crushed rocks, mint, white pepper and vibrant red-toned fruit gradually unfurl in the glass. This is an especially mineral wine from a section of Happy Canyon Vineyard planted with own-rooted To Kalon clone Cabernet. Readers who want to taste the 2021 young will want to give it at least several hours of air. The 2021 was impenetrable for hours until it finally started to show some of its true character.
Emerging from Happy Canyon Vineyard plantings originating from Oakville's legendary To-Kalon, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon RSW is coiled and reserved on the nose while subtly displaying its underlying class and elegance. Aromas of perfectly ripe red and black fruits framed with tobacco undertones and turned earth lead to a svelte yet velvety palate that balances plush texture and weightless intensity. The finish is taut and precise, gently housing its youthfully coiled, fine yet persistent tannins. Reminiscent of a classic California Cabernet from decades past yet with modern attention to detail, this beautiful expression of Happy Canyon will benefit from a few years of cellaring and should continue to evolve for a decade or more after that.
