WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
The 2022 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is exuberant, lush and well rounded and shows off the Titus Ranch Estate to it’s fullest. The wine is filled with ripe plum, cocktail cherry, blackberry fruit notes that are generously spiced with cardamom and nutmeg notes. The palate is bountiful and round with a delightful lushness, round tannins give the mid palate and finish focus and grace. The wine lingers with delightful oak and spice notes.
Blend: 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Petit Verdot, 4% Malbec
TASTING NOTES:
Based on 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Petit Verdot, and 4% Malbec, the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon reveals currants and blue fruits intermixed with graphite and chocolaty oak. Medium to full-bodied and nicely balanced, it shows the open-knit style of the vintage, offering smoky black and blue fruits in a pleasure-bent style. This impeccably made effort represents solid value. Drink over the next 6-8 years.

A bold and brawny wine with ample tannins wrapped around spicy, oaky, plummy flavors. A full body and big, soft tannins bring a suave texture to the grilled plum, beef jus and mulled black cherry notes.
- James Suckling, 92 pts.
An excellent value, the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon from Titus is marked by slightly high-toned cherry fruit joined by hints of vanilla and pipe tobacco. A full-bodied blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Petit Verdot and 4% Malbec, it delivers an intriguing juxtaposition of red cherries and darker, loamy notes. It's supple, almost creamy across the mid-palate, then softly dusty on the finish.
