2021 Release
Welcome To The 2021 Vintage Release
We invite you to acquire an allocation of the 2021 Cardinale Cabernet Sauvignon. With your purchase, you will become an active allocation member and receive notice of future releases. This offer closes on November 12, 2024.
"Cardinale is based on a blend of different appellations; it is also a compendium of stories: How those vineyards came to be included in the wine, the interactions with vineyard and winery staff who came in and out of the picture as the grapes and wine were evolving, how each vineyard fared in that vintage’s particular weather, and my own process of observation and blending to capture all those strands. This is really what Cardinale hopes to share with you. The 2021 vintage holds many such stories and also has its own narrative. Its bright fruit is driven by a core of blueberry, cassis, dark chocolate-covered espresso beans, Asian spice, and graphite. It comes together as a great example of a terrific growing season. Enjoy this wine, enjoy your families, and know that the Cardinale family appreciates your continued connection with us."
