Occasional wine note

This another historic Cabernet we carry from the 1976 Judgment of Paris and it continues to represent the Napa region it helped put on the map. There is just so much going on here, from the ripe dark fruits to the tobacco, chocolate, spice, and balanced acidity and tannin, all so well orchestrated in layers of opulence and finesse. Fantastic!

What experts say about this wine

Vinous

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is a pretty rich, bombastic wine, especially for Mayacamas. A blast of dark fruit, incense, tobacco, licorice, spice and mocha hits the palate. I would give the 2019 at least a few years in bottle to settle down, as it is quite the powerhouse today. This is an unusually flamboyant wine with plenty of richness and a bit less in the way of subtlety. The opulence of the vintage comes through loud and clear.

Wine Spectator

Loaded with character and energy, this version reveals heavy notes of zesty sweet bay leaf and sassafras that infuse a core of steeped red currant and mulberry fruit, all carried by bright acidity and iron-laced tannins. The long finish pulls everything together, with the fruit, savory and mineral elements in harmony. Showing an old-school touch, this has a long life ahead. Best from 2025 through 2045.
