Trefethen Estate Oak Knoll Napa Cabernet 2022

James Suckling Review Rated 93 A medium-bodied, well-balanced and slightly restrained red that bucks the Napa norm and offers more fresh acidity and bright fruits than richness and chocolate. So appetizing, well-balanced and food-friendly, offering aromas of raspberries, black cherries, bay leaves and some black olives on nicely supportive tannins and good fruit acidity.
