Lot 322
2019 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Description

Deep garnet in the glass, the 2019 Cabernet is a bit more blue-fruited than the 2018 with more pronounced florals. However, these wines are quite similar (as one would expect :-), with plenty of ripe blue and black fruit nicely balanced against red rock, leather and mocha turning more caramel-y with air. The 2019 is more vibrant on the palate with sexy acidity and a rich amalgam of blueberry jam and chocolate, hints of cassis and leather that finish atop a robust tannin layer that is so well-balanced it's almost imperceptible. Just a bit less chewy than the 2018, the liquid silk structure is uber-compelling with huge length and, again, incredible balance of fruit and red rock mineral-infused tannin's.
