Decanter
The Generations Napa Red is an elegant, medium-bodied wine laced with fragrant notes of spearmint, sage and cassis, alongside crunchy red fruit such as dried strawberries and mulberries. Violets and rose petals add floral intrigue, while the lithe, featherweight tannins are framed by a firm spine of acidity, giving the wine poise and lift.

James Suckling
Wow, so silky and supple in texture and flush with fruit and subtle spices. Red and black plums, black cherries, dark chocolate and creme de cassis on the palate. Full-bodied, softly tannic, broad and generous. Delicious and easy to enjoy. Drink now or hold.

Vinous
The 2021 Generations is a blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 2% Merlot. Bold and explosive, the 2021 is impressive right out of the gate. I especially admire its vertical build and persistence. Red flowers, cherry, mint, white pepper and iron are some of the many notes that build with a little coaxing. The 2021 is opulent yet finessed.

Wine Advocate
Loamy earth and black cherries appear on the nose of Charles Krug's 2021 Family Reserve Generations Red Wine, a Cabernet-led blend of Bordeaux-derived grape varieties. Underscored by hints of cedar and vanilla-tinged oak, it's full-bodied and impressively supple, with a ripe, velvety mouthfeel and a lingering finish. It represents a solid value in the realm of Napa Valley red wines.
