Sagebrush and dark cherry come first in Amici's 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon, followed by blackberry, currant, a sappy herbal streak and a floral, woodland note. The fruit comes mainly from Oakville, Rutherford and Oak Knoll, and the blend is Cabernet Sauvignon-led, rounded out with Merlot, Malbec and Petite Sirah. It aged in French oak, 55% of it new. The palate is medium-bodied, round and generous, with well-integrated acidity keeping the ripe fruit fresh and focused, and the tannins are smooth with a gentle grip at the edges. Critics see it drinking nicely now and well into the 2030s. Bring it out for smoked brisket, eggplant parmigiana or a burger topped with aged cheddar.

Critic Reviews

James Suckling
94 Points
94 Points, James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com: "A firm and crunchy red with blackberries, currants and hints of dark mushrooms and bark. Medium-bodied with a touch of graphite. Polished at the end. 40% Oakville Valley fruit. Drink or hold." 09/25

92+ Points, Joe Czerwinski, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "Not yet released, Amici's 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon is slightly less flattering than the 2022 but more structured. Slightly herbal, sage-like nuances join black cherries on the nose, while the medium- to full-bodied palate finishes firm and dusty with ripe tannins. It needs a bit of time—buy and drink the 2022 in the meantime—but should represent another great value." 06/25
