2021 Emblem Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley California

A Happy Wine Calle Ocho Favorite — Rated 91 Points

Emblem is the Napa Valley Cabernet of the Michael Mondavi Family — the next generation of the family that helped put Napa Cabernet on the world map. It starts in the family's vineyards on the northeastern hillsides high above St. Helena, blended with select valley-floor fruit.

A little Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot add color, depth and spice to the Cabernet core.

Critical Acclaim

• 91 Points – James Suckling

Tasting Notes

• Color: Deep ruby.
• Aroma: Fresh blackcurrant, licorice and baking spice.
• Palate: Full-bodied, with blackberry, cedar and a floral note, finely integrated tannins and fresh acidity. Drinks well now and will keep improving.

JC's Guide

"Napa Cabernet from the Mondavi family at a price that makes sense. Polished, dark and ready for tonight's steak — and a great gift for someone who knows their wine." — JC, Happy Wine Calle Ocho
