Orin Swift Palermo Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 - 750ml

Winemaker Notes

A dark cardinal core with a ruby rim, the 2023 Palermo stands poised in the glass as classic Napa Valley Cabernet notes of ripe black currant, blueberry reduction, licorice , graphite and cedar mingle together from within. A seamless, steadfast entry of intensity with more blackcurrant, blackberry and a touch of dark chocolate lead into a layered and textured mid-palate. Dusty, nostalgic tannins on the finish round off the wine with a touch of lingering espresso bean.

Based out of Saint Helena, within the prized Napa Valley, Orin Swift features a portfolio of wines that appeal to a variety of senses. It all begins in the vineyard. Sourcing for the Orin Swift family takes Dave across the state of California, with special interest in the Napa Valley, Sonoma County and Santa Barbara area. He sets his sights on small lots within the most coveted vineyards while ensuring that only fruit of the highest quality makes it into the final blend. Every wine in the portfolio, from the vineyard source to the distinct artwork adorning the label, offers a unique point of view while creating a heart-skipping impression.

“There’s a soul to this business.. that soul isn’t just from the people who make wine, it’s from everyone who loves wines that make them feel something.”—Dave Phinney
