The backbone of this vintage comes from two impeccably farmed vineyards: one located at the summit of Atlas Peak in Napa Valley and the other nestled at its base. Together, they give rise to a wine that is both powerful and elegant, capturing the soul of the land.
Tasting Notes
The 2021 Disciples appears opaque with a black-purple core and a fuchsia rim alongside its slow pace in the glass. Opening aromatics abound with briar fruit, black plum, blue fruits, redwood bark and charred meats—one could spend all day in there. The palate is selfish, refusing to be anything but itself, characterized by notes of black fruits, tarragon, roast lamb, mint and sarsaparilla. Rich yet welcoming with a persistent thread of minerality throughout, the grippy tannins aren’t abrasive but appreciated as structure, giving way to the soft, slow fade.
