Lithology Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
Lithology – Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
Napa Valley – California, USA 🇺🇸
Overview
Crafted from select Napa Valley vineyards, Lithology specializes in expressive, small-production Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2021 vintage exemplifies the lush, polished, and powerful style that has made Napa Cabs world-famous. (Educational note: Napa’s 2021 vintage was hailed for concentration and balance after a smaller-than-average crop, yielding wines of both richness and structure.)
Aromas & Flavors
Blackberry, cassis, and dark cherry dominate, with layers of mocha, vanilla, and cedar. Hints of violet, graphite, and baking spice add refinement.
Mouthfeel
Full-bodied, with an extraordinary, velvety texture. Luscious, layered, and mouth-coating, yet balanced by fine tannins and polished acidity. A true “show stopper” style with lingering intensity.
Food Pairings
Ideal with ribeye steak, braised short ribs, or grilled lamb. Also pairs beautifully with truffle dishes or aged hard cheeses.
Verdict
A bold, luxurious Napa Cab — expressive, concentrated, and texturally stunning. The 2021 Lithology is a modern classic, delivering both power and elegance in equal measure. 🍷

The Lithology label is produced under the Alejandro Bulgheroni Estate, a project known for working with acclaimed vineyard sources and top consulting winemakers in Napa.
Collector’s Rarity 📌
While not made in huge quantities, Lithology is highly allocated and prized among Napa collectors, making the 2021 vintage a coveted bottle.
