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.

Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2019 NVD Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet-purple in color, giving up notes of black cherry preserves, baked plums and boysenberries with touches of cassis, spice box and dried mint. The palate is medium to full-bodied, firm and refreshing, delivering loads of red fruit sparks and a long, savory finish.

Dark and winey, this Cabernet is packed with a mix of black currant paste, blackberry preserves and melted black licorice, all kept focused and defined thanks to a spine of graphite and a gilding of sweet spices. This will have lots of fans for sure. Drink now through 2036. 1,100 cases made.
