Adaptation by Odette Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, USA 2021

The 2021 Adaptation Cabernet Sauvignon leads with a heady aromatic rush of lilac, blackcurrant, ripe raspberry, vanilla, and clove. The palate reveals flavors of blackberry cobbler, fig, and raw almond packed around a tight-knit core of soft tannin. The judicious use of new French oak lends structure while adding a flash of espresso and cedar through a luxurious finish.

"Deep purple-hued, with great aromatics of cassis, graphite, mint, and tobacco, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon is medium to full-bodied and concentrated, showing a focused, elegant mouthfeel, classic 2021 tannins, and a great finish. It will benefit from 2-4 years in the cellar and keep for 15+." Jeb Dunnuck 93
