Double Diamond by Schrader Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

$150.00

The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon offers concentration, lively acidity, and refined tannins that have become the hallmark of the 2022 vintage. The nose holds notes of black raspberry, toasted cedar, juicy plum, and pennyroyal mint—a Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon signature. The palate is mouthwatering with intricately woven layers of blackberry compote, dark chocolate shavings, oolong tea, and flint. The dynamic flavours carry across the mid-palate in vivid harmony into a long, floral finish. This wine is ready to drink upon release but will cellar well for years to come.

Varietal Composition: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon

Barrels: 54% new French oak, 46% second-use Schrader Darnajou French Oak

Vintage: 2022

Vineyard Notes

The Oakville AVA nestles between the Vaca and Mayacamas mountains. Blessed with highly diverse, resilient soils and an ideal blend of sun, cooling wind, and rain, this narrow swath of Napa Valley produces some of the most sought after Cabernet Sauvignon in the world.

Awards & Accolades

94 Pts. "The 2022 Double Diamond Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted from the younger vines of the To Kalon vineyard, aged in 50% new oak and once-used Schrader barrels. This label focuses on blocks in the Mondavi To Kalon portion that don't make the cut for the primary Schrader wines. Vineyard manager Blake Wood emphasises identifying blocks within areas like the 'P Neighborhood' of the To Kalon site, divided into distinct parcels. The wine exhibits a bright and vibrant profile, leaning toward red-fruited characteristics with crunchy black cherry and ripe plum notes. Rich toffee and caramel spices add complexity, while firm, structured tannins support the full-bodied richness. It is a compelling and layered expression of Oakville."
