"Julien’s 2021 Classic unites Napa Valley’s diverse terroirs in a gracefully balanced composition. Complex aromas, dynamic textures and fresh energy deliver an elegant expression of the region and vintage. An inviting nose offers plum, espresso, and warm, woodsy notes of cedar and autumn leaves. Plush, sweet purple fruit and rich coffee aromas expand on the palate, supported by gentle minerality and notes of fresh thyme and garrigue. Spicy white-pepper tannins usher the wine into a mouthwatering finish of fresh red fruits, blackberry pastry, and allspice."
ANTONIO GALLONI 94 POINTS - "The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Classic is a blend from several sites across the valley. Inky dark fruit, gravel, spice, grilled herbs, lavender and licorice are beautifully delineated in a dense yet vibrant Cabernet Sauvignon that seriously over-delivers. Persistent savory inflections build into the layered finish. The aromatics are especially alluring."
