Oleandri 2022 Broken Rock Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley. 96 points
This is a delicious and very well-made Napa Cabernet from a vintage that has greatly exceeded early expectations. Layered notes including dark cherry, black plum, and blackcurrants are nicely braced by lightly toasty oak accents that work with fine grained tannins to provide structure for the wine’s ripe, sweet fruit.
Oleandri 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon, Rutherford, Napa Valley. 98 points
This Cabernet displays its Rutherford AVA pedigree with rich, deeply flavored fruit marked by nearly perfect symmetry of ripe sweetness, freshening acidity, and gently firming tannins. Oak is notable but also well measured, yielding a wine that can be enjoyed now or cellared to improve for 15 years.
