2023 The Gryphon Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
The third vintage of The Gryphon showcases heightened precision and nuance—boysenberry and blackberry weave with dried mint, fennel, and star anise, while jasmine and lavender lift the finish. Fresh oak and cocoa powder add depth beneath a core of minerality. Medium-bodied with fine grained, structured tannins and balanced acidity. Decant or let breathe 20 minutes to unveil its evolving layers.
