A Brilliant Vintage: 2023 Napa Cabernet 6-Pack Sampler 6x750ml

1) 2023 Martellotto 'Kind of Noir' Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 

95 pts Decanter · One of only 420 Italian Wine Ambassadors worldwide

"Utterly seductive, lavishly layered — rich, velvety blueberry fruit framed by smoky, toasty French oak. Tannins dipped in chocolaty decadence, crushed espresso beans fueling the lavish finish. A potpourri of violets and blue floral notes adds intrigue." — Decanter, 95 pts

2) 2023 Thurlow Cellars Copperhead Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Only 9 barrels produced · Pétrus-trained winemaker

Fewer than 250 cases made. Rich, ripe fruit, focused tannins, and an exotic spice character that only gets better with time. When a Pétrus-trained winemaker makes nine barrels in a vintage like 2023 — you don't wait.

3) 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.

4) 2023 Ehlers Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

96 pts — Anne Sewell Briggs, DipWSET · Philippe Melka–trained winemaker · Neighbor to Rombauer

"Opens with black cherry, plum compote, wild berry bramble, warm spices, and dried herbs. Supple yet finely structured, with cedar, mocha, and baking spices deepening on the palate. Tannins polished but firm — a strong backbone carrying the wine through a long, harmonious finish." — Anne Sewell Briggs, DipWSET, 96 pts

5) 2023 Beau Vigne 'Cult' Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 

98 pts Tasting Panel · 95 pts Decanter · Robert Parker: "One of my favorite wineries"

"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." — Tasting Panel Magazine, 98 pts

"Expressive and full-bodied, with a bold, rich mouthfeel that blends satin and silk textures. Fragrant violets laced throughout, supported by supple tannins and accents of milk chocolate, dried sage, and sweet oak spice." — Decanter, 95 pts

6) 2023 Typhon Estates 'Ignis' Cabernet Sauvignon Atlas Peak

Crafted by Napa icon Chad Alexander

Born on volcanic soils at elevation — structured, mineral, and built for the long haul.

Blackcurrant and dark cherry alongside fennel, roasted tomato, and thyme. Full but structured, with polished tannins and mid-palate depth reflecting 18 months in 100% French oak. The finish is long and mineral-edged — the kind of tension that suggests years of evolution ahead.
