“The 2017 Cab is a deeply hued garnet color, with gorgeous aromas of black cherry, cassis, wild blackberry, black tea, and a complex floral note, layered and enhanced by French Oak nuances. Across the palate, it’s luxurious and elegant, yet powerful, with flavors to match the aromatics. Flavors linger with a long balanced profile that expands as the wine continues to open. While delicious and impressive now, it will also be a wine that can age and bring enjoyment for many years to come.”

Rating: 94 Points Antonio Galloni

"The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon comes across as quite delicate in 2021. Bright red-toned fruit, spice, cedar and pipe tobacco all lend notable brightness. In most vintages, the Barrett & Barrett has been a pretty somber, muscular wine, but the 2017 is decidedly gracious to the point of being understated. It is a very pretty wine, but also quite atypical."

About the Winemaker:

“Known as a superstar winemaking couple, Bo and Heidi Barrett have teamed up together for their very own project. While Bo comes from the famous Barrett's of Napa Valley, known for their wining Chardonnay in The Judgement of Paris in the 1970s, Heidi came to Napa Valley in the early 90s, helping to start some of the greatest cult wineries Napa had ever seen. The grapes in the Cabernets of Barrett and Barrett are hailing from the Barrett family plot, planted on volcanic soils within St. Helena in 1989. The site is across from the famous family owned Chateau Montelena, and the land is precious to the family. The first release was in 2008, and each vintage proves to be wholly Napa Valley.”
