"Production was down slightly in 2022, but Modus Operandi's 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon is reassuringly excellent, with bold notes of black cherries and raspberries on the nose. It's 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% each Merlot and Malbec, with elements coming from Coombsville, Atlas Peak and Carneros; there's even some Sage Ridge and Houyi fruit in the mix as well. Nicely done, it's not overly ripe or tannic, being full-bodied and structured but ripe and supple enough to sample now, with a lingering crystalline quality to the finish."
