Reviewed January 2025Aged for 20 months in French oak barrels, 50% of which were new, this wine is tart and racy, with a red-toned fruit profile complemented by saline-mineral intensity on the nose and palate. Aromas of leather, green olive, and cherrywood add complexity. The palate is immediately enveloped by multidimensional tannins with a pixelated quality, arresting the senses before giving way to sanguine fruit and vibrant minerality. The finish is layered with notes of blood orange, citrus peel, sandalwood, and loamy earth. A testament to the winery, a Napa Valley staple since it opened its doors in 1987, this wine showcases precision and depth in every sip. (JC)

James Suckling
A bold and deep expression, packed with blackberries, blackcurrants, dark chocolate, black olives, dark earth and licorice. The full-bodied, dense and fruit-driven palate carries fine-grained tannins and is balanced with bright acidity, finishing with hints of mocha and wet stones. Try after 2027. (AS)

Wine Advocate
Largely picked prior to the Labor Day heat wave, Corison's 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the restrained, streamlined style that is a calling card of the winery. Marked by black cherries and loam, with subtle spice shadings from its 20 months in 50% new French oak, this medium-bodied wine maintains superb tension between acidity and alcohol and delivers a lingering, mouthwatering finish framed by soft tannins.

Jeb Dunnuck
Beautiful red and black fruits, spicy herbs, and savory, floral notes all shine in the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon, aged 20 months in 50% new French oak. This complex, medium-bodied, satisfying Cabernet Sauvignon has ripe, integrated tannins and outstanding length. It's ready to go, and I'd happily drink a bottle any time over the coming 10-12 years. Drink 2025-2037.
