Patria - Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Ranch 2021 (750ml)

Jeb Dunnuck 97 points
"The first vintage where they've pulled out younger vines with the goal of elevating the quality, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Ranch is based on 88% Cabernet Sauvignon and equal doses of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. It has a stunning nose of pure cassis, graphite, crushed stone, darker chocolate, and baking spices. This carries to a full-bodied, beautifully concentrated, yet polished Cabernet Sauvignon with incredible tannins, flawless balance, and a great finish. There are a scant 300 cases made, and this is clearly one of the great values out there in truly great Napa Cabernet Sauvignon."

"The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Ranch is bright and energetic, as wines from this site tend to be. Dark red/purplish fruit, mocha, dried herbs and wild flowers abound. The 2021 captures all the energy of this ranch in its huge fruit and potent, searing tannins. All this embryonic Cabernet needs time to come together."
