The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a fresh nose of fig and plum, complemented by a subtle earthy sage note that emerges with a swirl of the glass. This earthiness deepens on the palate, developing into intriguing layers of star anise and an inky, mysterious character that hints at hidden complexities. The wine’s high acidity leaves a “singing” sensation post-swallow, and its light-bodied finish lingers with an elegance that suggests much more will be revealed with aging. This vintage promises to unfurl deeper layers over time, making it one to revisit as it matures.
2019 as a year
The 2019 growing season brought a wet spring, which contributed to the wine’s lively acidity, followed by a hot summer that allowed fruit to ripen fully on the vine. This balance of conditions provided excellent hang time, encouraging the development of rich flavors and structure. The result is a Cabernet with both vibrant acidity and complex, well-developed fruit, making it a dynamic vintage with strong aging potential.
