Nickel & Nickel Cabernet Sauvignon 2021, Vaca Vista Vineyard, Oak Knoll District, Napa Valley, California

“At Nickel & Nickel, single-vineyard, 100% varietal wine is what has given us our reputation for dynamic, interesting, nuanced Napa Valley Cabernets. Every one of our wines is the pure expression of its particular vineyard. Vaca Vista Vineyard sits upon the valley floor in the Oak Knoll District and is our debut Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard in the appellation, set against a scenic backdrop of the Vaca Mountains to the east. The vineyard’s well-drained, gravelly soils and moderate climate provide even ripening, resulting in this structured and polished Cabernet Sauvignon.”This Oak Knoll District Cabernet has expressive red currant and floral aromas and pure red fruit flavors. Soft and silky throughout the palate, the fruit is juicy and full, with polished tannins, a broad mouthfeel and one of the smoothest, sleekest finishes of the vintage.”
