Lion Tamer Cabernet Sauvignon re-imagines what a Napa Valley Cabernet can be. The well-known power of valley floor Cabernet Sauvignon is harnessed and softened by our mountain-grown Malbec. Supple tannins surround the palate, framing layers of juicy black currant, dark plum and hints of espresso, with well-integrated notes of baking spice from oak aging presenting an elegant finish.

The 2019 Lion Tamer Cabernet Sauvignon includes small amounts of Malbec and Petite Sirah, but it retains Cab's essence in its cassis notes and gentle herbal shadings. Full-bodied and supple, with fine-grained tannins that leave a silky impression on the finish, it should be enjoyed over the next several years.
