Robert Craig Winery makes some of our favorite Cabernet Sauvignons and the Affinity is top-tier for the money!
|
Robert Craig Winery has been a mainstay in Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon production for decades! Their entire line-up is wildly impressive and the Affinity bottling is perhaps the greatest value in Napa Valley.
Most of the fruit for this wine comes from the prestigious La Londe Vineyard in Coombsville, one of the top sites in the whole valley. Everything about the 2020 vintage was ideal in the vineyard until it wasn't.
The Robert Craig team harvested a first pass that yielded classic and structured Cabernet that exceeded expectations, unfortunately, there was no second pass because of the 2020 wildfires. That means production for the 2020 Affinity is tiny and there isn't a ton of this wine to go around.
Big, bold and structured, this is ideal for holiday gifting or to stock up and enjoy with friends and family!
"The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Affinity benefits from having been picked before the Glass Fire. Bright red-toned fruit, rose petal, dried flowers and blood orange lend energy to this exotic Napa Valley red from vineyards in Coombsville. There's a bit more Merlot than usual in this year's blend, and that works well for the wine's balance." - 92 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous
