KARL LAWRENCE CAB NAPA VALLEY 2019

Stewed plum, crème de cassis, and boysenberry hit first, deepened by five spice and fruitcake, and the full-bodied palate stays true to that richness with baked berry fruit and a velvety, savory finish. Karl Lawrence sources from Napa Valley, where warm days and cool overnight temperatures concentrate fruit while preserving structure. The blend runs predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon with small additions of Petit Verdot, Petite Sirah, Malbec, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc — a classic Bordeaux-style architecture that drives complexity without sacrificing approachability.
