2018 Schrader RBS

1x 750ml bottle

Vineyard: Beckstoffer To Kalon
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Clone: Pure Clone 337

Critical Scores: 99 JD, 97 WA, 97 JS, 96 WS

Always a favorite among our team and friends, the 2018 Schrader RBS continues this tradition. Luxurious aromas of blueberry crème brûlée, mixed black and blue fruit mélange, and red cherries burst from the glass with an enticing hint of lightly grilled brioche bread. The ripe fruit flavors dance along the palate and intertwine with flavors of roasted coffee and salted churned butter. The wine's ample fruit focus is balanced by supple, velvety tannins that give way to an astonishingly silky-smooth finish.

2019 Double Diamond Oakville

1x 750ml bottle

Appellation:  Oakville
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon

Critical Scores: 94 JD

Our 2019 Double Diamond Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted by winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown in the Schrader Cellars tradition of making the best Cabernet Sauvignon that Napa Valley can offer. In the glass, the wine displays a nearly opaque ruby-purple hue. Upon closer inspection, aromas emerge in waves suggesting framboise, nutmeg, toasted cedar bark, plum reduction, and pennyroyal mint. The sleek palate is marked by mouthwatering notes such as blackberry compote, dark chocolate shavings, cassis, oolong tea, flint, and lavender. The dynamic flavors interact on the mid-palate with a vivid harmony, carrying through to the long floral finish, which lasts for up to a minute. With a pleasing acidity and fine tannic framework, this wine is very enjoyable today and should develop gracefully in the cellar for years to come. This wine was awarded the #1 Wine of 2022 by Wine Spectator.
