The Character

Tasting Notes The 2022 Roy Estate Cabernet Sauvignon opens with bold confidence and vivid aromatic clarity. Lively, plush black cherry and cassis are framed by the wine’s hallmark volcanic hillside pedigree—graphite, sunbaked stone, and crushed granite. Luxurious notes of black plum and black mission fig with clove and sassafras develop moments later. On the palate, the 2022 Roy Estate Cabernet Sauvignon displays more finesse than brute force. Its medium-plus weight carries the intense, piercing fruit that sits atop a substantial foundation of broad, textural tannins. Baking spices round out the wine’s core, giving warmth and lift, while savory, sturdy herbs like dried thyme and bay leaf lend a grounding, earthen quality. What defines the 2022 Roy Estate Cabernet Sauvignon most clearly is its harmonious tension: vivid fruit and exuberant aromatics balanced by deeply rooted minerality and structure. With its precise, age-worthy tannins, this wine promises complexity and evolution for 15-20 years to come.

The Story

A pure and powerful expression of Napa Valley’s best. The very limited production of 300 to 450 cases of Roy Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is the end result of the meticulous efforts of our entire vineyard and winemaking team. Our single vineyard, estate grown Cabernet Sauvignon is a sophisticated wine of striking complexity, deep concentration and substantial structure. Built to last, this wine is aged up to 29 months in new Taransaud French oak barrels to lend elegance to its unmistakable hillside character. Our Roy Estate Cabernet Sauvignon has garnered consistent praise from wine experts and critics for every single one of its vintages.
