2022 Double Diamond by Schrader Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville
From the hands of Schrader Cellars, the 2022 Double Diamond Cabernet Sauvignon captures Oakville’s pedigree with intensity and balance. Lush black raspberry, juicy plum, and toasted cedar lead into a palate layered with blackberry compote, dark chocolate shavings, and oolong tea. Vibrant acidity and refined tannins frame the long, floral finish. Ready to enjoy now or cellar for future rewards.
“In top vintages, Schrader’s Beckstoffer Cabernet Sauvignon-based wines can be as good as money can buy ... anywhere in the world.” – Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate It’s hard to point to a winemaker in the Napa Valley on a more consistent winning streak than Thomas Rivers Brown. The wines he makes for Schrader, Maybach, Double Diamond, Kinsella, and Jones Family do not share a monolithic sameness, but rather individuality. Because Brown makes wine naturally - with no spinning cones, additives, or hocus pocus - the only thing the wines have in common is their greatness, and the monster critical acclaim that has followed. Which brings us to Schrader. Simply put, these are some of the most consistent and critically acclaimed wines being made in the valley right now. They are truly rare and great, made from historic Grand Cru sites in St. Helena, Rutherford, and Oakville.
