Buena Vista Chateau Cabernet Sauvignon — Napa Valley, California 2022
Buena Vista is California’s oldest premium winery — and one of its most colorful. Founded in 1857 in Sonoma by Agoston Haraszthy, the self-proclaimed “Count of Buena Vista,” a Hungarian immigrant who pursued “purple gold” in the hills of Northern California after following the forty-niners, Buena Vista established the template for California fine wine. Since 2011, winemaking has resumed in the original caves — the first wine caves in California — with small-lot wines crafted in open-top oak fermenters with native yeasts and hand punch-downs. The Chateau Cabernet Sauvignon honors the estate’s Napa Valley roots: a full-bodied, plush, and expressive Cabernet that delivers the richness and concentration the valley is famous for. James Suckling awarded it 91 points; Tasting Panel 95. At under $43, it is one of the most compelling values in Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.
Deep purple in the glass. The nose is captivating: fresh raspberry, luscious cherry, cranberry, vanilla, chocolate plum, and violets. On the palate, it is full-bodied, plush, and concentrated, with flavors of strawberry, sweet cherry, blackcurrant, boysenberry, and vanilla cake, framed by velvet tannins, a tickle of white peppered cedar, and a long, harmoniously balanced finish.
Expert Reviews - Vintage 2022
Tasting Panel 95 — “Undeniable aromas of chocolate plum… divine notes of violets, summer-ripe boysenberry, and vanilla cake. Elegant and expressive, with velvet tannins and a tickle of white peppered cedar.”
James Suckling 91 — “Plush, ripe and saturated… deep in red and black fruit on a rather gentle texture of smooth tannins and a full body. Everything from strawberry to sweet cherry and blackcurrant flavors.”
