The 2019 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon has a bouquet of dark red berry fruit, supported by briary cherry, and tea leaf herbaceous notes. The palate follows through nicely with juicy and bright strawberry preserves, black raspberry, black cherry, and cola, supported by delicate hints of mint, mocha and dark chocolate. The tannins are smooth and round offering a plush texture and mouthfeel, with a classic balance and structure that complements the character of this wine. Well integrated baking spice notes of vanilla bean, cinnamon, and ginger from the toasted oak barrels seamlessly compliment the lively berry fruit aromas and flavors leading to a long savory finish with focused acidity. This crowd-pleasing Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is incredibly drinkable now, upon release, and can age for many years to come.

Wine Enthusiast

"Focused and brilliant flavors of red and black cherries and black currants drive this sleek and powerful wine, as minty, toasty, and tobacco-like accents stay subtly in the background until the finish. A full body, medium to full tannins and good fruit acidity lend tangy freshness. Best from 2026."

"A juicy and delicious wine with a round and polished texture with hints of chocolate and walnuts. Some iron shavings, too. Medium body. Savory at the end. Lovely dark fruit in the finish."

Vinous Antonio Galloni

"The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is packed with dark cherry, spice, leather, pipe tobacco and cedar. This heady, boisterous Napa Valley Cabernet delivers the goods and then some. A dollop of Petite Sirah adds gorgeous layers of depth and complexity. Best of all, the 2019 will drink well right out of the gate."

Wine Enthusiast

"This well-balanced, moderately tannic wine offers black fruits, oak spice and a lightly gripping texture, all in good proportions. It’s a pleasurable wine that shows the typical, attractive black cherries, black olives and hints of baking spices."
