2021 Roots Run Deep Roots Run Deep "Hypothesis" Cabernet

95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Malbec. Aged for 24 months in French oak. The Cab is sourced from the Money Road Vineyard in Oakville. 15% alcohol. 5,411 six packs made.  This is the top end  wine of the team behind Educated Guess, which has been one of the best deals in Napa Cab for two decades. Winemaker Macario Montoya has been making the wines here since 2017, and spent the previous 10 years of his winemaking career as the Assistant Winemaker of Piña Winery in Rutherford. This is full bodied, rich and bold Napa Cab that is smooth and ready to go.  Tons of sweet, ripe blackberry and blackcurrant fruit in combination with toasty, vanilla oak layered into a velvety smooth mouthfeel. Dry but not astrigent. This is unabashedly modern stuff!
