Turnbull, Calistoga – Napa Valley (California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Apr 23, 2024

By Rich Cook

 Turnbull’s Amoenus Vineyard Cabernet is another 2021 that I have been waiting patiently for, and one that I would advise buying now and continuing to wait patiently as it comes fully together over time.  From the northwest corner of the Napa Valley on the north facing slopes of Mt. St. Helena, it is long on earthy character, acidity and overall structure, so extended cellaring will integrate the oak and release the fruit that’s just starting to show itself.  I would let this rest ten years for starters.
