Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Corison Winery, trade sheet (hentet 17. okt. 2026): 2019 Corison Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Vintage-note (producentens tekst, engelsk): Summer and fall were so cool in 2019 that we picked fully two weeks later than we usually do, the perfect setup for a great vintage. Those cool days allowed long hang-time, resulting in complex, intense flavors, and the cold nights promoted inky color and balancing natural acidity. The entire spectrum of Cabernet Sauvignon fruit flavors is present and accounted for, from red cherries and raspberries through blueberries, to purple plums, black cassis and marionberries, for remarkable complexity. A floral perfume of dried roses, violets and lavender is already jumping out of the glass. Signature Rutherford Dust minerality joins baking spices, notes of cocoa, dried thyme, and a whiff of tar and anise. Tannins that are firm and grippy, though velvety, lend structure and mouthfeel. It is going to be a lot of fun watching this wine over time.
