Cabernet Sauvignon Dark Ark 2019 Hundred Acre Vineyard

Professionelle Bewertungen

Lastly, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Dark Ark is another perfect wine from this estate that delivers everything you could want from a wine. Beautiful aromatics of red and black currants, graphite, darker chocolate, smoked tobacco, and God knows what else all emerge from the glass, and this beauty hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a layered, ultra-fine mouthfeel, perfect tannins (this could be a masterclass in tannins), and just this multi-dimensional, complex, hard to describe style that sets it apart. This magical Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon can be drunk any time over the coming 20-30 years.

A barrel selection of denser and more powerful wines from the Hundred Acre Ark vineyard. Heady and stimulating aromatics of creamy black fruit, liquorice, wet-slate minerals, ironstone, and tobacco. The wine boasts beautiful definition, and the flavours and aromas shine in spectrums of red, black, and blue colours, framing super-fine, smooth and polished tannins. Time in the glass reveals even more heady mineral nuances, exotic perfumed notes, and a dazzling array of sweet herbs and spices.
