Cliff Lede 2023 'Hi Fidelity' Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley

The 2023 High Fidelity simmers in the glass with warm plum, smoked paprika, burning incense, autumn leaves, and exotic spices. Rose water, cigar wrapper, and licorice echo on the palate with a core of crème de cassis, dried cherries, and a touch of black tea. Full-bodied, rich and velvety, it’s layered and unctuous, with powdery tannins and a broad, enveloping personality, concluding with a long, fragrant finish reminiscent of cardamom and Luxardo cherries. – Christopher Tynan, Director of Winemaking
