An incredibly bold blend of Cabernet Sauvignon with a kiss of Cabernet Franc. This wine is a fighter, as you would expect from something born into a vintage that will forever be known for its fires. The spot-on acid and tannin fight for your attention and attack the front and back pallet but never comes across as ponderous for all of its mass. Blueberries and cherry flavors dominate, but there are significant notes of chocolate, mandarin orange, and hints of fresh toast. This lively wine is the perfect style for big hearty dishes.

Catastrophe is a combination of the highest quality vineyard-designate grapes sourced from south Napa and Oakville that were not affected by the devastating fires of 2020. Yields were dramatically low after we diligently sorted through the clusters and were forced to combine the remaining un-impacted fruit into small lots and individual barrels that we blended to create this triumphant wine.
