Winemaker Notes

The 2023 Amici Napa Valley Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon opens with layered aromas of dark red fruit, cassis, lavender, cocoa powder, and Madagascar vanilla. On the palate, ripe blueberry and baker’s chocolate unfold against a backdrop of full body and great acidity. The wine is defined by lush, expansive tannins that provide structure and length, promising exceptional aging potential.

Blend: 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc

Critical Acclaim

Blackberries and black currants with dark chocolate and aromatic hits of violets follow through to a medium body with ultrafine tannins. A racy wine with a refined, extremely long finish. So beautiful now.

Coming from a blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc aged 19 months in 100% new French oak, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve boasts a deeper purple hue with a Rutherford-like vibe in its beautiful black fruits, smoky tobacco, dusty earth, and chocolate-driven aromatics. It’s medium to full-bodied, has a pure, layered mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. An awesome value, this brilliant bottle of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon will drink beautifully.

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

Amici’s 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve consists of some lots from Hudson, young-vine fruit from Morisoli and a few other barrels that didn’t make it into their respective single-vineyard wines. Strongly marked by black cherries on the nose, it’s medium- to full-bodied, with a sexy, suede-like mouthfeel and ample richness, finishing long and softly dusty.
