    About The Wine

    2023 is already being hailed as one of Napa Valley’s most exciting Cabernet vintages of the decade—and this exclusive 6-pack captures the brilliance, power, and precision that have critics buzzing.

    2023 Napa Valley vintage isn’t just another great year – it’s the year that will be etched in history. Wine experts are calling it "the vintage of a lifetime," and for good reason. The perfect blend of cool temperatures, morning fog, and balanced sunlight created conditions so exceptional that they’re being compared to Bordeaux's iconic 1961 vintage. As The Wine Independent put it, 2023 is "a winemaker's dream in terms of wine style." Wine Bible author Karen MacNeil calls it "one of the most phenomenal vintages ever in Napa Valley."

    This year was blessed with a 98pt review by Vinous Media: "The 2023 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignons are defined by explosive aromatics and fully ripe, finessed tannins that feel like silk on the palate. Many wines are absolutely delicious, even young. Quality is exceptionally high across the board. The finest wines are breathtaking."

    This collection brings together six exceptional 2023 Napa Cabernets, each showcasing the purity, structure, and vineyard expression that define world-class Napa Valley wine. These are not mass-market bottlings or widely distributed labels. These are insider selections—wines crafted by some of Napa’s most respected winemakers, sourced from elite sites in Oakville, Stags Leap District, and beyond.

    We built this sampler for serious Cabernet lovers—collectors and enthusiasts who want to experience the first wave of greatness from 2023 without chasing allocations or paying inflated prices.

    We taste hundreds of Napa Cabernets every year. Only the standouts make it into a sampler like this. These six didn’t just pass—they impressed at a level that demanded inclusion.

    With depth, polish, impeccable balance, and clear aging potential, this is a snapshot of Napa Valley at its very best.

    Claim your collection today and experience the best of Napa Valley—before it's gone.

    What's in the Glass

    PAIRS WITH

    Mouthfeel & Acidity

    • 2023 Martellotto 'Kind of Noir' Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley (95 Decanter)

    "From Greg Martellotto comes this utterly seductive, lavishly layered Cabernet, opulently scented and framed by smoky, toasty French oak nuances that highlight rich, velvety blueberry fruit. Full-bodied, the tannins soar across the palate, dipped in chocolaty decadence, while crushed espresso beans fuel the lavish finish. A potpourri of violets and blue floral notes adds intrigue. This is a hedonistic wine best enjoyed now and over the next five to seven years." ~95 Decanter Magazine

    • 2023 Dominus Estate Napanook Napa Valley (93 Vinous Media)

    The 2023 Napanook is deep, bold and luscious right out of the gate. Black cherry, lavender, dried herbs and graphite fill out its mid-weight frame quite nicely. I expect the 2023 will drink well with minimal cellaring, as it is already quite open and doesn’t quite have the tannic palate presence of more important years. ~ 93 Vinous Media

    • 2023 Caterwaul Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, (93 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate)

    Assuming pricing remains stable, Caterwaul's 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley—a 14,000-case blend this year—should remain one of the valley's greatest values. Boasting wonderful purity of fruit—black cherries and cassis—plus floral-herbal nuances, it's full-bodied, rich and velvety, maybe a bit open-knit but flavorful and structured, with a lasting finish. ~93 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

    • 2023 Beau Vigne 'Cult' Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley (98 The Tasting Panel)

    Winemaker Julian Fayard created this milestone bottling from the Beau Vigne collection, a distinctively luxurious Cabernet Sauvignon. Notes of vanilla, cedar, dark chocolate, blueberries, and a hint of clove engage with firm tannins. Dried lavender wraps around the palate, soaked in Worcestershire and black tea, which anchors to the lengthy finish. ~98 Tasting Panel Magazine

    • 2023 Flora Springs Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley (93 James Suckling)

    Aromas of blackberries, plums, ink, graphite and cedar. The palate is medium-bodied with softly integrated tannins and bright acidity.Great freshness and balance.The premiere release under new ownership and packaging. ~93 James Suckling


    • 2023 Robert Craig Winery Affinity Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

    On the palate, ripe dark fruit flavors of blackberry and cherry are balanced by firm tannins and a subtle touch of toasted oak. The wine’s structure and freshness reflect the high-elevation mountain vineyards, delivering a powerful yet supple finish with lingering earthy and graphite notes.
