Lot 181 | 2019 Amador County Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml

Lot 181
2019 Amador County Cabernet Sauvignon

Medium-to-deep ruby in the glass with nice glycerine complexion. Ripe blackberry, creme de cassis and crushed red rock dominate the nose along with plenty of seasoned french oak that should integrate nicely over the coming months. Big, lush and supple on entry but balanced throughout, Lot 181 delivers Napa Valley quality black and red fruits laid out over mouthwatering acidity that beautifully lifts the ample fruit to a long, sustained finish.

Overall rating: 4.5 / 5 from 6 reviews.

Surprised Me!

"Easy drinking with a bright nose of berries. Red and black fruits intermingle this fruit forward cabernet. soft tannins with good balance and a nice after taste. A nice change from the big structured and tight Napa cabs."

QPR king - plush fruit

"QPR king - plush fruit and enough tannic bite to keep it interesting - I've re-upped on bottle shop sales a couple times because it hits all the right notes."

This was a very pleasant

"This was a very pleasant Cab and seems to be under the radar. I would agree with original description - dark red in the glass, darker fruit flavors/aromas without being a too heavy wine. Nice little bit of acid but a smooth drinker. This was a really nice surprise at such a great price. Nice everyday drinker."

Amador surprise!

"NICE, This hidden little gem has aged enough, to become become a PnP with no decant. I'm surprised how nicely this yummy 🍷wine has developed. Accidentally bought this second case(confused this one with #112 Sierra Foothills, due similar geographic Appellations). Since (the double yum) #112 was/has sold out, this is still a very happy accident!! Especially on sale! Nice fleshy fruit and balanced with good oak. Drinking this now, don't intend or need to age it for much longer. 1 Yum🍷"
