Winemaker Notes: Wonderfully aromatic and expressive, the 2021 vintage opens with scents of sweet cassis, anise, blackberries, roasted coffee, blue herbs and barrel vanillin. On the palate, the tannins are firm, upfront and balanced throughout, with all pockets of the mouth left yearning for another sip. Full-bodied and extracted with ripe black fruit, blueberries, charred caramel and a delightful hint of fresh herbs that concen- trate into a lengthy finish. This wine is approachable upon release and cellar worthy in proper aging conditions.
Blend: 91% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 2% Merlot

Another brilliant value that readers will love, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Silencieux,is a blend of 91% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Merlot, all of which spent 22 months in 50% new oak. This medium to full-bodied, round, balanced, mouth-filling beauty has lots of ripe black and blue fruits, some background spicy oak, velvety tannins, and a great finish.

A blended wine that includes components from several famous sites, including Georges III, Stagecoach and Kenefick Ranch, among others, Venge's 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Silencieux fits the Venge model perfectly, boasting oodles of color and bold aromas of vanilla and cedar accenting big black cherry flavors. It's medium to full-bodied, clocking in under 15% alcohol on the label, yet it offers plenty of sweet-tasting fruit, an expansive mouthfeel and just enough dusty tannins to give it some grip on the finish.
