Ink Grade | Cabernet Sauvignon - NV

The Cabernet Sauvignon is expansive with intriguing depth. A defined aromatic core, seamless on the palate with finely polished tannins. The lingering finish is expressive, possessing tension while remaining fresh and light.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The team at Ink Grade favors east and north-facing blocks for their own label, including the Cabernet Sauvignon. Aged in a variety of different-sized oak vessels, the nose features scents of vanilla, cedar and cassis, with a gentle minty overtone. Full-bodied and firm but not lacking flesh or richness, this wine is dense and concentrated but lively and taut, with a long, dusty finish framed by fine-grained tannins.

• Wine Spectator: Lots of harnessed power in this version. A deep well of cassis, plum and boysenberry fruit flavors are in reserve, but for now encased by tannins and racy red tea and savory details. Sleek, with a deeply buried iron note. Everything should meld and stretch out nicely with some cellaring. Best from 2023 through 2035.

Producer Information

The estate on Howell Mountain is no ordinary vineyard. Planted to nurture rather than disrupt the ecosystem that has thrived there for centuries, the Ink Grade is at once lush and rugged, idyllic and unforgiving. This dynamic balance is expressed in every bottle. The single-vineyard wines of Ink Grade Estate debut nearly 150 years after their land was acquired by Napa Valley legend Theron Ink. Rooted firmly in the Napa Valley, Ink Grade makes single-vineyard wines of remarkable intensity and grace. They are the product of rugged terrain perched atop the Vaca Range, on the east side of Howell Mountain.
