2021 Oakville Cuvée
Cellared and Bottled at Turnbull Wine Cellars
Blended by winemaker Peter Heitz
This limited production wine is a blend of select lots of Oakville’s finest Cabernet Sauvignon and blending varieties, contributed by winery members of the Oakville Winegrowers. The Cuvée offers the collector an extraordinary opportunity to experience the best of Napa Valley’s premier growing region. There is no other wine that equally represents the spirit of an appellation and the camaraderie of its vintners. Each bottle is etched and the large formats are numbered, a beautiful and rare addition to any wine cellar.
Winemaker’s Notes: The 2021 vintage featured low yields with intensely-flavored, small-sized berries and a smooth harvest season. The resulting grapes are packed full of flavor. The 2021 Cuvée is an elegant, deep magenta colored wine that greets you with an aroma that is redolent with red fruits, vanilla, cassis and just a touch of blackberry jam. There is a minerally freshness in this wine in its early years that will evolve as it ages. On the palate it is smooth, with easy tannins and a luscious mouthfeel that lingers nicely. As it opens up, you’ll discover gentle notes of cedar and mint. Cellar for 10-20 years, or decant for an hour if enjoying it sooner.
