The Visionary

Small Vineyard Blocks Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley

It’s not what you look at, but what you see

Bold aromas of dark fruit, plum, and ripe fig lead to hints of dusty soil. The medium-bodied palate showcases cocoa nib and Darjeeling tea leaves wrapped in perfectly integrated tannins and oak structure. A long, luscious finish leaves you wanting more. Enticing from start to finish.

"Blackcurrants, black olive tapenade, iron, and roasted herbs all give this beauty a Pessac Léognan-like character."

Vintage Notes

The 2021 vintage was an extremely small crop, dryness and zero heat spikes combined with super small, concentrated berries and a super long ripening season resulted in the vintage being hailed as one of the TRULY great ones.

Vineyard Notes

Sourced from small, family vineyards, (in some cases for 3-4 generations) that are farmed with great care and attention. These vineyards (some are 80+ years old) have been brought together, actually woven together, so the magical fruit could at last become Fortunate Son.

Composition

100% Cabernet Sauvignon

Cooperage

Aged for 34 months in 100% new French oak. We only use the finest French oak barrique with stave wood that is hand-selected for ultra-tight grain, then air dried for three years before being made into barrels.

Appellation

Napa Valley

This wine is dark and brooding, a wine of elegance, fine and structured tannins, and basically the wine-equivalent of a Wagner piece on a stormy night
