Depiction 2019 “Estate” Cabernet Sauvignon, St. Helena Napa Valley 97+Points

FMW 97+ Points: The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is an amazing wine, that is loaded with black stone fruit flavors and high-spirited nuances of complexity. The 2019 Cabernet offers up an intense structure, showcasing a beautifully silky and inviting texture. This youngster has everything in the right place, and the wine continues to grow on the palate. Although the wine can be appreciated now, it could certainly benefit from a year or two in the cellar,  and will surely age gracefully for decades.

Winemaker Notes: “The 2019 depiction possesses more copious freshness than any recent depiction, owing to the cooler nights of the 2019 growing season. This is an exuberant wine that has a long life ahead of it. Delicious with a  decant now, it will reward the patient in the coming years. Lifted plummy aromatics give way to mixed berry compote, kirsch, and shortbread notes on the palate.   Telltale talc tannins and black cherry overtones confirm the pedigree and typicity of the vintage in the lineage of depiction releases. “
