Royal Prince Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2021, Napa Valley, California

Royal Prince Wines are the creation of industry veterans David Green (a former executive with Dana Estates, Lede Family Wines, Joel Gott Wines and Price Family Vineyards, among others) and winemaker Maayan Koschitzky (with Screaming Eagle and Dalla Valle on his resume, along with current roles as manager of Philippe Melka’s consulting portfolio and his own La Pelle wines). “We work with small growers and producers to gain access to the best cuts. And Maayan’s gift for blending allows us to capitalize on micro lots and rare opportunities and build wines of character, structure and elegance that best reflect the region and vintage.” 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Big, bold and racy, this Cabernet Sauvignon has a dense purple, almost opaque hue and offers up an electrifying bouquet, dark red, blue and black fruits with notes of tobacco leaf, graphite and spicy oak. Opulent and layered, it flexes its power but is framed by refreshing acidity with silky, sweet tannins.
