Tasting profile
Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, high acidity, dry
A Napa Cabernet made in deliberate counterpoint to the valley's blockbuster style. Ashes & Diamonds work at markedly lower alcohol than their neighbours, with restrained use of new oak and acidity kept high enough to hold the fruit taut rather than plush — an explicit homage to Napa as it was in the 1960s and 70s. Expect blackcurrant and cedar on a medium frame, fine-grained tannin, and a savoury, herbal edge that keeps it lively at the table. A wine built for food and for the long middle stretch of a meal rather than for immediate impact.
