Bella Union Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

Bella Union Cabernet Sauvignon embodies the beautiful union that we capture in every bottle—layers of juicy, red fruit flavors, a polished, silky texture, and plush tannins. Winemaker Brooke Price makes it her mission to highlight Rutherford’s beautiful red fruit and cocoa powder notes in every vintage. The 2022 growing season began with an exceptionally mild start, with budbreak in March. By May, vines showed strong shoot growth and average crop yields ahead of mid-July veraison. Summer heat spikes were managed proactively with shade cloths and misting systems, preventing negative impacts. August's mild to moderate temperatures created optimal conditions for bright and focused flavors. This careful management ensured excellent quality throughout the season, resulting in a successful and flavorful harvest. The 2022 Bella Union Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon begins with enticing aromas of black cherry, cassis, and cedar. On the palate, rich flavors of ripe plum, dark chocolate, and hints of vanilla mingle seamlessly with well-integrated tannins, leading to a long, satisfying finish. This wine showcases the classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon characteristics with elegance and finesse, promising to evolve beautifully with age.
