Tasting Notes: "The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is super-elegant and refined, but also somewhat closed following its bottling, which is not uncommon for mountain wines. That period of stubbornness seems to be part of the evolution here, as the wine tends to only blossom after a few years. Today, the 2019 is marked by its brilliant upper register, striking balance and vibrancy. It is another compelling wine from Cornell."- Vinous.
About the Winery: Perched on a far flung slope of the Mayacamas surrounded by wilderness, this land possesses an enigmatic personality which manifests in the glass vintage after vintage. The rugged terrain gives way to a highly specific wine that is a joy to savor, yet makes no apologies or concessions. Thanks to the immense talent and work ethic of our winegrowing team, the Cornell Estate Cabernet captures the unmistakable essence of our mountain estate.
Varietal: 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petit Verdot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 1% Malbec.
