Zeitgeist The Grove St Helena Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 750ml

97 pts

Jumping up in price (but I’d say still a relative value), the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon The Grove comes all from the Lewelling Vineyard outside of St. Helena and was raised in 75% new barrels. Ripe blackberries, currants, toasted spices, chocolate, and even some roasted herb nuances all define the aromatics, and it hits the palate with a full-bodied, deep, expansive, layered mouthfeel. It’s beautifully balanced and shows the more sexy, exuberant style of this vineyard perfectly. Drink bottles over the coming 15+ years.
