Decanter Magazine Review
Rated 94
Fruit sources from the cool climates of Southern Napa contribute lifted herbal notes and violets, balanced by generous, warm dark berry fruit from up-valley sources. Medium to full-bodied, juicy blackberry and cherry woven around tobacco notes with fine-grained tannins and blood orange acidity through a lovely finish tinged with toasty baking spices. Estate vineyard sources are Sugarloaf Mountain in Napa, Big Ranch on Oak Knoll, and sources in St. Helena, Oak Knoll, and Beckstoffer George III in Rutherford and Colburn in Oakville. Drinking Window: 2023-2028.
Wine Tasting Notes
On the palate, Force & Grace Napa Cabernet presents bright concentrated flavors of plum, dried cherry, blackberry fruit leather and black tea, suppor ted by rich silky tannins and integrated acidity. The finish lingers with evolving notes of cedar, cacao, nutmeg, and licorice. There is no grace without strength, no beauty without contrast, no force without feeling.
96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Malbec
Alcohol 14.5%
