92+ points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Affinity is mostly Howell Mountain fruit in this vintage, which elevates its quality but also makes it more difficult to enjoy young. Dark fruit, lavender, spice, menthol and licorice power through this deep, forbidding wine. This big, brooding Cabernet is built for cellaring. Give it plenty of time in decanter before enjoying. Drink: 2023-2031. (Dec 2023)"
Producer notes: "[$76 list] The 2021 vintage of Affinity Cabernet Sauvignon is marked by an increase in power and complexity over more fruit-driven wines from Southern Napa in previous vintages.

Vineyards: Winery Estate Vineyard, Candlestick Ridge Vineyard, Amentet Vineyard, Temple Vineyard. Appellation: Howell Mountain, Mount Veeder, Pope Valley, Napa Valley. Composition: 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot, 5% Merlot, 3% Malbec, 2% Cabernet Franc. 1,332 cases produced."
