QUARTERS A-Cabernet Sauvignon-Rutherford-Napa Valley 2023

Crafted in honor of the 250th Birthday of the United States Marine Corps, the 2023 Quarters A Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine of strength and discipline — a tribute to tradition and excellence. From the glass rises a commanding bouquet of blackcurrant, graphite, and cigar box, underscored by cedar, dark chocolate, and roasted coffee bean from its 24 months in 100% new French oak. The palate is both powerful and poised, with rich layers of blackberry, cassis, and plum compote framed by fine-grained tannins and a core of Rutherford dust that speaks unmistakably of its origin. As it opens, Quarters A reveals notes of sage, anise, and baking spice, building toward a long, resonant finish that echoes with dark fruit, oak spice, and a touch of minerality. This is a Cabernet built to stand the test of time — commanding yet refined, much like the Marines it honors. #forthehostsonoma #sonomaguide2025
