Postmark (Duckhorn) Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Embodying the generosity of great Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine offers alluring aromas of raspberry compote, fresh blueberry, and caramel, with notes of sage and sweet baking spices. The blueberry and raspberry notes are echoed on the bright, structured palate, where they mingle with flavors of black currant, sassafras, and cocoa powder that linger throughout a long, luxurious finish. Blend 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petite Sirah, 5% Merlot

Critical Acclaim

92 James Suckling

This shows ripe and generous dark fruit with hints of spices, nut shell and graphite. Rich and plush, but firm and structured, with full body and a chalky texture to the tannins. Quite generous, but solid and well-made.

91 Wine Enthusiast

Dark violets, elderberry jam, loamy soil and mint aromas make for an impressive nose on this bottling. The palate lands with a viscous mouthfeel, a black fruit core and loads of savory dark cocoa and espresso flavors, reminiscent of a Napa-style Cab.

91 Vinous

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon is darkly floral. A whiff of baking spice and dried violets give way to graphite and crushed blackberries. This is forward and juicy in style with ripe black fruits and acidity accentuated by hints of cocoa. Fine-grained tannins linger but don’t get in the way of the 2021s energetic personality, finishing with potent length yet still fresh.
