Decanter Magazine Review
Rated 94
The Napa Cabernet from Charles Krug in 2023 is truly a classic – nicely built, immensely pleasing, and a fine example of what ‘classic Napa’ looks like in a cool vintage. It leads with elegant notes of bay laurel, sagebrush, and earthy spices that weave around red-fruited tones. The wine builds on the medium-bodied palate with crunchy apple-skin tannins as darker fruit character takes hold, while cool wet-slate minerality adds complexity and a salty-saline acidity brings brightness. One of the finer Napa Cabernets from this iconic estate that I've tasted in the past half decade. Drinking Window 2026-2040.
