Details
94 Points | WI
“La Pelle now farms six different Cabernet vineyards in Napa and their Napa Valley blend is from all six, including fruit from Coombsville, Oak Knoll, Oakville, and St. Helena. They are really looking to capture each vintage with the La Pelle Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and the 2021 has a deep garnet-purple color and it springs from the glass with notes of blackcurrant pastilles, redcurrant jelly, and wild blueberries, plus suggestions of tar, black truffles, and fragrant earth, with a touch of roses. The full-bodied palate is laden with intense black fruit flavors, with loads of earthy sparks, framed by grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long with wonderful purity.” - Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, The Wine Independent

“The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley includes 4% Petit Verdot and comes from a mix of vineyards in Coombsville, Oak Knoll, Oakville, and St. Helena that was brought up all in barrel. It's a classic, incredibly classy 2021 exhibiting darker currant fruits, some smoky tobacco, gravelly earth, bay leaf, and espresso nuances, medium-bodied richness, good acidity, and a great finish. It's a smoking value in impeccably made Napa Cabernet Sauvignon that readers should snatch up.” - Jeb Dunnuck
