2022 Becklyn Napa Valley Cabernet Reserve

Similar to the Becklyn Napa Cab, but with everything turned up to the 9's, the 2022 Becklyn Napa Cabernet Reserve stands as an exceptional showcase of the vintage, exuding richness and sophistication without taking itself too seriously. A majestic bouquet of black cherry, cassis, and plum, intertwined with enchanting notes of violets, lavender, and white flowers just about leaps from the glass to greet your nose. As it unfolds, deeper layers of milk chocolate, espresso, vanilla bean, and hints of baking spices emerge, adding complexity and allure. The purity and precision of the fruit is awesome. Quite lush and concentrated, it envelops the palate with a luxurious, almost creamy texture - silkiness doesn't even begin to describe it. Yet despite its opulent, decadent profile, the wine maintains a jaw-dropping freshness and balance. This Reserve promises to age beautifully and add depth and dimension for well over a decade, but its elegance and refined structure make it irresistibly enjoyable upon release. This is a dynamic, multifaceted wine that can give you both loads of pleasure, or a cerebral high as you explore its various nuances.
