With dark fruit flavors such as blackberry and plum, it also offers hints of cedar and subtle spice, reflecting the region's rich terroir and favorable climate for grape growing.
This wine pairs well with hearty dishes, including grilled meats, such as steak and lamb, as well as rich pasta dishes like Bolognese. Complement it with aged cheeses, particularly sharp Cheddar or Gouda, for a balanced tasting experience.

Crème de cassis, graphite, sweet tobacco, and sweet, loamy earth notes all define the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley, a nicely textured, layered, pure, seamless barrel sample.
91-93 Assuming pricing remains stable, Caterwaul's 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley—a 14,000-case blend this year—should remain one of the valley's greatest values. Boasting wonderful purity of fruit—black cherries and cassis—plus floral-herbal nuances, it's full-bodied, rich and velvety, maybe a bit open-knit but flavorful and structured, with a lasting finish.
#51 Top 100, 2025. A rock-solid Cab, offering a steady beam of warmed cassis and cherry reduction notes laced with a loamy accent to keep everything grounded. Dark tobacco and a flash of walnut husk add range through the finish, which hasn’t fully unwound just yet. Best from 2026 through 2036. 12,734 cases made.
