Tether Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2021

How lucky are we at ACME Fine Wines to call “Sharing good wine with the world” our jobs?!? Hailing from the nine of the prestigious Napa Valley sub-AVAs, we will all gladly go to work for this incredible value, Tether Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, at an unbelievable $63 per bottle! It comes down to this very important detail: good wine is easy to share! Good wine connects people in more ways than you might imagine. Countless hands are involved in every bottle you open. Growers, vineyard workers, winemakers, cellar crew, and interns who physically transform grapes into wine. Not to mention the wine club directors, salespeople, drivers, foodie friends, and trusted advisors who help bring that bottle to you. An insane amount of labor and passion goes into filling a glass with wine, and we are constantly in awe of and grateful for our community, who make it all possible.

First seen in ACME’s Under The Radar Club years ago, we are thrilled to connect you with the newest release of TETHER! This is an electrifying “Meeting of the Minds” project between our friend Kimberly Jones, a well-connected wine broker who represents many of California’s most collectible wines (Scarecrow, Blankiet, Realm, Checkerboard, Memento Mori, and Ovid) and veteran winemaker Anna Monticelli (Château Cheval Blanc, Seavey Vineyard, Bryant Family, Piña, and Stack House). 

A near-perfect blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot, & 3% Malbec, the wine was aged exclusively in French oak with 60% new barrels. The 2021 Tether Cabernet Sauvignon bursts from the glass with luscious aromas of black currants, blackberries, black cherries, and blueberry compote. Layers of volcanic rock, spring flowers, graphite, mocha, and well-integrated French oak complement the gorgeous dark fruit core. The wine's rich texture coats the palate in velvety tannins, sweet ripe fruit, and elegant, toasty oak. This wine showcases dazzling finesse and leaves you with a long-lasting finish.
