The non-estate 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Lyndenhurst, like the estate bottling, is scheduled for release in September 2024. Including all five Bordeaux varieties and matured in 40% new French oak, it boasts classic scents of cassis, black cherries and some gentle cedary notes. It's medium to full-bodied, gently velvety but still firm, with a long, cool finish. It's more than $100 these days, but it still delivers a high-quality drinking experience.

A juicy red with black currants and balsamic. Bark and mushroom. Iodine, too. Medium body, creamy texture that tightens at the end. An energy and firmness in the finish but remains so attractive. Savory. Hard not to drink now. So do, but will also age nicely.

Full bottle 1,321 g. 20th-anniversary vintage. Notably lower alcohol than most. 79.2% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10.6% Merlot, 3.8% Petit Verdot, 3.5% Cabernet Franc, 2.9% Malbec. 2,897 cases produced.
Shaded crimson. Beautifully harmonious nose with a bit more interest than most of its peers. Lifted aroma and very ripe, well-managed tannins. Bone dry – but not drying – finish. Super-appetising wine for the table. Nimble, light-footed wine that’s very different from the norm.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Lyndenhurst is a huge overachiever. Rich and ample in feel, the 2021 packs a serious punch. Dark-toned fruit, spice, leather, tobacco, menthol and dried herbs fill out the layers and carry through to the succulent finish. The Lyndenhurst is especially fine in 2021. This saw 45-50% new oak.

The second wine of this incredible estate, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Lyndenhurst reveals a deep purple hue as well as a great nose of assorted currants, black cherries, tobacco, and lead pencil. It's beautifully concentrated, has medium to full-bodied richness, and ripe tannins, all making for an undeniably delicious, classic, balanced Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon to drink over the coming 10-15 years.
