Cabernet Sauvignon Few And Far Between 2021 Hundred Acre Vineyard

Professional reviews

Jeb Dunnuck (97)

Darker currants, smoked tobacco, chocolate, and graphite notes all shine in the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Few And Far Between, another sensationally layered, complex, full-bodied, flawless, seamless wine in the lineup.

Decanter (99)

Pure elegance with super attractive white truffle aromatics and rich umami notes layered with fresh herbs and dark berry fruit. The wine features fine-grained tannins that resolve through a tapestry of succulent blackberry and blueberry notes, cherry-infused currant liqueur, and delicate tobacco spices. Few and Far Between is Hundred Acre’s estate 2.02-hectare vineyard, surrounding the Woodbridge home in Calistoga, sharing a fence line with the legendary Eisele Vineyard. Planted to Cabernet Sauvignon and one "Home Block" of Cabernet Franc, which abuts the veranda of the Woodbridge home, the final blend includes some of this Franc. Owner-winemaker Jayson Woodbridge ages the wine up to 30 months in extremely fine, centre-cut French oak barriques with ultra-tight graining.

The Wine Independent (100)

The 2021 Few and Far Between Cabernet Sauvignon includes 10% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple colored, it comes barreling out of the glass with notes of blueberry compote, juicy black plums, and warm cassis, giving way to hints of candied violets, cinnamon stick, and iron ore. The full-bodied palate is decadently rich yet with remarkable energy, framed by velvety tannins and seamless acidity, finishing long and opulent.
