Tasting notes
Beautiful red and black fruits, spicy herbs, and savory, floral notes all shine in the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon, aged 20 months in 50% new French oak. This complex, medium-bodied, satisfying Cabernet Sauvignon has ripe, integrated tannins and outstanding length. It's ready to go, and I'd happily drink a bottle any time over the coming 10-12 years.

Largely picked prior to the Labor Day heat wave, Corison's 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the restrained, streamlined style that is a calling card of the winery. Marked by black cherries and loam, with subtle spice shadings from its 20 months in 50% new French oak, this medium-bodied wine maintains superb tension between acidity and alcohol and delivers a lingering, mouthwatering finish framed by soft tannins.
Medium vibrant purple. Gorgeous nose with gravelly, rocky minerality, a leafy freshness and bright fruit. Elegant yet concentrated showing excellent ageability, crystalline acidity and fine sandy tannin structure. Stony, long finish. (SCJ)
A bold and deep expression, packed with blackberries, blackcurrants, dark chocolate, black olives, dark earth and licorice. The full-bodied, dense and fruit-driven palate carries fine-grained tannins and is balanced with bright acidity, finishing with hints of mocha and wet stones. Try after 2027.

Cathy Corison is one of Napa’s leading lights – a matriarch of the region who crafts defiantly elegant Cabernet Sauvignon from her old vines on the benchland between Rutherford and St Helena. These refined, long-ageing wines are some of Napa’s most impressive.
