The Wine You Should Be Drinking:
2021 Solari Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
$200
Why?
If you’ve followed Honest Cooking Magazine, you know that we love the classic Napa Cabs coming out of the Larkmead laboratory. They are big, bold, delicious, decadent and basically everything else you’ve come to expect from a fantastic Cali Cab.
The 2021 Solari Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is no exception. It’s as if Larkmead took everything they’ve worked for these past 120 years or so, and distilled into a bottle that is just EXACTLY ripe for the picking for whatever thing you’ll be celebrating this upcoming year.
I know, it’s expensive, like a lot expensive. Like, YIKES expensive. But this wine is incredible, and if there is a time in your life when you are thinking about getting a bottle of “incredible”, then this is that bottle.
Enjoy it with someone who is important, or keep this liquid treasure to yourself. Or better yet, give us a call and we’ll come over and help you drink it!
About the Winemaker:
Larkmead Vineyards is one of the oldest family-owned establishments in Napa Valley. Originally founded in 1895, the 115-acre Larkmead estate is now under the stewardship of the Solari-Baker family.
The broad patch of Calistoga that Larkmead Vineyards calls home has been under vine since the mid-1800s and has witnessed the turning of two centuries. In that time, Napa Valley has transformed from a vinous vestige of the Wild West to one of the most preeminent wine regions of the world.
Larkmead wines are generally quite fucking exceptional!
