Argot Wines Argot Bonny's Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 750ml

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Bonny’s Vineyard is another gem of a wine. Coming all from a site in Oakville and aged 22 months in 85% new French oak, it has a medium to full-bodied, layered, rich, textured style as well as velvety tannins, ripe red and black currant fruit, some leafy herb, iron, and underbrush notes, and a great finish. It’s one of my favorites in the lineup from Argot, and it has everything you could want from an Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon. It will benefit from just a few years of bottle age and evolve for 15–20 years if well stored. (Jeb Dunnuck)

An enticing version, with an array of sage, chaparral, tobacco and menthol notes leading off, followed by lush, caressing elements of black currant and blackberry compote. A loamy accent underscores the finish as everything knits steadily from start to finish. Very, very solid. Best from 2025 through 2040. 150 cases made. (James Molesworth)
