Lot 255
2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

Juicy and intriguing, this wine exudes aromas of warm rain, violets, blackberry compote, aromatic cedar and spruce, and chocolate toffee. Straddling elegance and depth on the palate, lush layers of blackberry and black cherry framed with savory tones of tobacco and aromatic hardwoods lend a focused vibrancy to the lingering, chocolaty finish.

Wonderfully made. Luscious

"A modern-styled Napa: complex, structured, round & sound. Black fruit galore (black cherry, blackberry), licorice, tobacco, dark chocolate and wet forest ground. Needs a hefty aireation (1 hour) in order for the aromas to settle. Can hold up a few more years of cellaring. Bottom line: a delicious wine with a much more expensive experience than its price."

Una Experiencia para los Sentidos

"Un Napa de corte moderno: complejo, bien estructurado, redondo. Aromas de fruta negra (picota, grosella), con notas de tabaco, chocolate amargo y bosque húmedo. Requiere de una buena aireación para que se integren los aromas. Puede aguantar un par de años más de guarda."

Excellent cab. Make sure you

"Excellent cab. Make sure you open it well before you intend to drink if. I decanted it 12 hours before we drank it. It opened up nicely."

Top 10

"Really loved this wine. Coombsville AVA, incredibly smooth, great finish. Oak and fruit are nicely integrated. Top 10"

Full Bodied. Should age well

"It has a high-toned, spicy nose with noticeable alcohol. Ripe red berries and light oak aromas are prominent. The wine has a touch of sweetness and primary flavors of blackberry, cherry, and strawberry. However, there are also underlying notes of plum and fig, adding complexity. With air time, the flavors become more pronounced and continue to evolve resulting in a smooth, silky texture."

Solid Napa Cab

"A notch below other top Napa Cabs from dN but very nice. Big red and blue fruit, vanilla, long finish."

Christopher C. (5/5)

A solid weeknight Napa Cabernet

"A solid weeknight Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. Flavors of Blackberrys, red fruit and lots of oak with a touch a sweetness. It's ripe with nicely balanced acidity. Not the most complex wine, but very drinkable."
