Fortunate Son The Diplomat Napa Valley Cabernet 2023

The 2023 The Diplomat races out with notes of warm cassis, plum preserves, and spice box, giving way to hints of menthol and pencil shavings. The full-bodied palate is dense with juicy black fruit layers, supported by plush tannins and a refreshing line, finishing long with a minty lift. By Lisa Perrotti-Brown, The Wine Independent, 10/1/26
