Dark and brooding, revealing layers of eucalyptus, licorice and blackberry that shift constantly in the glass. The palate shows remarkable tension and mineral drive, but everything feels coiled and reluctant to show its hand. This needs serious time to unwind its mysteries. Drink 2025-2045.

Diamond Creek

Diamond Creek has bottled its Diamond Mountain estate as three distinct single-vineyard Cabernets since the late 1960s, each tied to a specific soil type. One of Napa's earliest and most consequential single-vineyard programs.
