The 2023 Bella Union Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon opens with expressive aromas of black cherry and cassis layered with dusty cocoa, violets, graphite, and subtle baking spice.... On the palate, the wine is structured yet graceful, showcasing ripe plum, blackberry compote, and fine-grained tannins that speak to its Rutherford core. Notes of tobacco leaf, dark chocolate, and vanilla emerge through the mid-palate, leading to a long, clean, and balanced finish. Generous without excess, this wine delivers classic Napa Valley richness with poise and precision.
