Description

Arkenstone's 2019 Napa Valley NVD Cabernet Sauvignon is a pure expression of the varietal, drawn from fruit across Pritchard Hill, Howell Mountain, and Calistoga. The wine spent 22 months in 75% new French oak, a commitment that shows in its polish and structure.

The glass reveals deep garnet-purple color and a complex bouquet of black cherry preserves, baked plums, and boysenberries, with undertones of cassis, spice box, violets, and dried mint. On the palate it's medium to full-bodied and firm yet refreshing, delivering persistent red fruit character and a long, savory finish. The wine is seamlessly balanced and shows real sophistication, with enough structure to age gracefully but enough immediacy to drink with pleasure now.

All Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon NVD is a smoking value and comes from Pritchard Hill, Howell Mountain, and Calistoga. It spent 22 months in 75% new French oak. Cassis, black raspberries, violets, and floral notes all define the bouquet, and it’s medium to full-bodied, seamless, and incredibly polished, with terrific balance. It’s in the running for the best Napa Cab under $100. (Jeb Dunnuck, March 2022)
