Composed of lots from Gamble Ranch and Borrow Pit, plus Lampyridae, the 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve features a slightly lifted, herbal note set against a backdrop of ripe cherries and dusty earth. It's medium to full-bodied and crisp, with dusty tannins and hints of cassis on the finish. Without its usual Howell Mountain component, it's an atypical Private Reserve, tarter and more red-fruited than other vintages. Volume suffered as well, with just 847 cases produced instead of a few thousand.
