2019 Hall Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Source
This wine incorporates choice fruit from vineyards throughout Napa Valley, from our organic estate vineyards to small, rugged hillside sites of our partner growers. By blending these various lots, we create a rich panorama on the palate, a landscape of complexity and character that clearly depicts Napa Valley.
Vintage Notes
Our 2019 growing began with ample rainfall and lingering soil moisture. A warm, extended summer saw very few extreme heat events, with foggy mornings setting the stage for vibrant and expressive wines. The long, relatively mild finish to the season helped preserve freshness and balance in the fruit with hang time that allowed for impressive color, structure, and tannin. This is an exceptional vintage defined by well-integrated acidity, dense texture, and great depth.

Tasting Notes
Our 2019 Napa Valley Cabernet is expressive with aromas of dark cocoa, red berries, and dried herbs. The palate is lush and fruit-forward, with hints of spice and leather. The tannins are polished - fully integrated and balanced through the lengthy finish.

The appellation 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley is another winner. Ripe red and black fruits, dried flowers, and spice all define the bouquet, and it’s up-front, soft, balanced, and just delicious. Drink bottles over the coming decade.

Leads with a light cedar edge, followed quickly by relatively open-knit red currant and damson plum fruit flavors. Shows a light savory edge on the finish. Drink now through 2030.

The winery's largest bottling [...] is the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley. [...] it's a medium to full-bodied effort, with bold flavors of cherries, cassis and cedar. It's easy, but not soft, nicely firm, with a long, silky-textured finish.
