A deep blend of red and purple colors and abundant aromas introduces us perfectly to this beautiful Cabernet. Rich and complex in flavor, notes of cherry and blackberry transition to mixed herbs, bramble and mocha, complemented by a delicious dimension of sweet fruit. Soft smooth on the palate, the 2021 Maitre D’ balances flavor and structure perfectly.

Fragrant, with notes of tobacco, oud, palo santo and violet, while hints of eucalyptus and iodine complement blackberry and blueberry syrup and dense, toothsome tannins. Drink now through 2036. 8,144 cases made, 2,848 cases imported.

Tasted alongside the 2020, this 2021 The Maitre d' Cabernet Sauvignon smells sweeter, more of blackberry pie than coulis. In the mouth, the wine is thick and plush, with black berries in profusion, rested upon a bed of creamy oak. It finishes with gentle inflections of crushed coffee grounds and dark chocolate. It is satisfying and super dense-that is the style, and it has been done well here.
