Clos Pegase Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

I found two solid professional scores for this specific 2022 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon:

• Wilfred Wong — 92 points
  Deep ruby-purple in color, with ripe berries, dark fruit and a touch of licorice. Medium-bodied but energetic, with vibrant berry flavors, subtle oak and a lively, persistent finish.
• James Suckling — 91 points
  Described as a rugged, flavorful Cabernet with ripe plum and black cherry, sandy tannins and a full body. Concentrated and mouth-filling, with satisfying fruit and chocolate notes.

Overall

Average professional score: 91.5 points. The 2022 shows a more generous, fruit-forward Napa style, combining dark fruit with chocolate, licorice and subtle oak, while retaining enough acidity and tannin for structure. Clos Pegase lists the wine at 14.9% ABV.
