Hall Winery Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2019 750ml

Expert Review – Vintage 2019

Jeb Dunnuck writes: The appellation 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley is another winner. Ripe red and black fruits, dried flowers, and spice all define the bouquet, and its up-front, soft, balanced, and just delicious. Drink bottles over the coming decade. Drinking 2023 to 2033. – Jeb Dunnuck 91

Joe Czerwiski writes: The winery’s largest bottling, approximately 38,000 cases, is the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley. Primarily from the Hardester Ranch in Pope Valley, with other major contributions from St. Helena, Soda Canyon and Glass Mountain, it’s a medium to full-bodied effort, with bold flavors of cherries, cassis and cedar. It’s easy, but not soft, nicely firm, with a long, silky-textured finish. Drinking 2022 to 2030. – Robert Parker Wine Advocate 90

James Molesworth writes: Leads with a light cedar edge, followed quickly by relatively open-knit red currant and damson plum fruit flavors. Shows a light savory edge on the finish. Drink now through 2030. – Wine Spectator 90

Winemaker Description

Features a tempting nose with hints of violet, ripe cherry and warm baking spices. The palate is supple in texture with luxurious layers of brambly red fruits, cocoa, and dusty tannins. This classic Napa Valley Merlot finishes long and vibrant with lingering notes of graphite.
