Chimney Rock Cabernet Sauvignon - Stags Leap District - Napa Valley. 2022

£136.99

Ripe and structured, the 2022 Chimney Rock Cabernet Sauvignon from the Stags Leap District delivers a polished Napa profile with dark blackberry and black cherry at the forefront, layered with plush cocoa, graphite, and a hint of dried herb from the estate’s volcanic soils. Medium-plus tannins frame the fruit with firm grip yet fine texture, while bright acidity keeps the palate lively and lends excellent aging potential. Oak integration is elegant—toasted cedar and baking spice support rather than dominate—resulting in a balanced wine that pairs beautifully with grilled steaks, braised short ribs, or a rich mushroom ragù. Crafted for both near-term enjoyment and cellaring, this vintage showcases the region’s signature combination of power and finesse.
