ITER — Cabernet Sauvignon 2022, Napa Valley, California, USA 🇺🇸
Overview A soft, velvety Napa Cabernet focused on approachability and immediate pleasure. Vanilla-driven oak, rounded tannins, and polished dark fruit create an easygoing, comfort-style Cab that overdelivers for the price without tipping into jammy or heavy territory.
Aromas & Flavors Vanilla, cocoa, ripe black cherry, blackberry, plum, sweet spice, light toast, and a touch of mocha.
Mouthfeel Medium to medium-plus body with supple tannins and a creamy texture. Smooth, plush, and easy-drinking with a gentle, rounded finish.
Food Pairings Burgers, pizza night, BBQ chicken, weeknight pasta, tacos, or simply a couch + Netflix situation.
Verdict A lovely everyday sipper. Not built for contemplation, but built for enjoyment, balanced, velvety, and dangerously easy to pour that second glass.
🍷 Did You Know? ITER focuses on sourcing fruit across Napa Valley to craft stylistically consistent, value-driven wines that highlight plush texture and early drinkability rather than cellar structure.
Personal Pick Exactly my kind of “no-thinking required” Cab, soft, comforting, vanilla-smooth, and perfect when I just want to relax and sip without overanalyzing. — 2 days ago
Plum on the nose, rounder in body than Duravita, acid in the finish, a bit of tannin. (FKA Iter - so nice to see Jessica's new tasting room!) — 8 years ago
