The 2023 Silencieux Cabernet Sauvignon from Venge Vineyards is a full-bodied, expressive Napa Valley red that showcases the winery’s signature style and attention to detail. Aromatically, it opens with rich notes of sweet cassis, blackberries, roasted coffee, and barrel vanillin, accented by hints of anise and fresh blue herbs. On the palate, the wine delivers firm, balanced tannins that provide grip and structure, while ripe black fruit, blueberries, and charred caramel unfold in layers. The texture is dense yet polished, with a concentrated core that leads into a substantial, lingering finish. Crafted from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot sourced from seven distinct vineyard sites across Napa Valley, this vintage is both approachable upon release and cellar-worthy for years to come.

Blend: 91% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 2% Merlot
