2023 Carter Cabernet Sauvignon The Haze Napa Valley

In a region where reputation can precede reality, The Haze stands as proof that mastery needs no introduction. Crafted by a team responsible for more than a dozen perfect scores, the 2023 release reflects everything Carter Cellars has built its legacy upon: power without excess, detail without restraint, and a sense of place that whispers through every sip. 

Under the direction of winemaker Russell Bevan, the fifth vintage of The Haze emerges as a masterclass in controlled intensity. Bevan approaches texture the way a sculptor works with marble: patiently, precisely, revealing power without losing beauty. The 2023 vintage showcases his signature touch, with saturated fruit lifted by freshness, and tannins that glide smoothly.

Composed entirely of Cabernet Sauvignon, The Haze radiates with the hallmarks of the Carter Cellars house style: deep, concentrated fruit, seamless texture, and a finish that unfolds deliberately. It’s the kind of wine that reminds you why this valley remains at the heart of the world’s Cabernet conversation. A place where craft meets conviction, and where a producer like Carter Cellars continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in the glass.

“There are 235 cases of the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon The Haze, a 100% varietal from a mix of sites. Cassis, graphite, smoky oak, and a Graves-like scorched earth and smoky character all shine here, and it’s full-bodied, has a pure, elegant, layered mouthfeel, sweet yet building tannins, and outstanding length.”

The 2020 vintage is the second release of The Haze Cabernet Sauvignon, primarily sourced from younger vines in the Fortuna Vineyard, which flanks icons Plumpjack and Groth on Oakville’s volcanic Eastern side. It also contains grapes from a plot south of Napa township exposed to cool ocean breezes from San Pablo Bay. This wine portrays the winery’s signature style with ripe fruit, seasoned tannins, and incredible depth that lingers into a layered, complex finish.

“This is our second release of The Haze which is sourced from vineyards in Oakville and the southern Napa AVA, a site heavily influenced by the clean Bay air. The Haze has a deep dark purple ruby hue, matched with dark red and black fruits, fresh leather, graphite and currents all wrapped in powerful integrated oak. On the palate, it is has a full-bodied lifted finish with a balanced mouthful matched with firm, yet supple tannins.”
