The 2021 Best Barrels Cabernet Sauvignon from Blue Rock Vineyard showcases the oldest block of the estate’s rugged, steeply sloped vineyards in the Alexander Valley AVA. This historic site has been producing fruit since the 1880s. Aged for 28 months in French oak, the wine draws exclusively from the estate’s oldest hillside Cabernet block, selected for its depth and concentration. Dark-fruited and savoury in profile, it opens with notes of black olive and liquorice, followed by pine forest accents, blackcurrant, and walnut husk. Medium-bodied on the palate, it delivers juicy dark-fruit intensity supported by velvety, supple, fine-grained tannins. A lively, mouthwatering complexity keeps the wine bright and surprisingly light on its feet, carrying through to a blood-orange–driven, acid-fuelled finish. Blue Rock Vineyard was purchased in 1987 by Kenneth Kahn and Cheryl Kahn. Today, the winemaking reins are in the hands of Wells Guthrie, who continues to refine and elevate the estate’s most expressive parcels.
