2019 Cade Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Howell Mountain, California $148.99
On the nose are aromas of cola, blueberry, red cherry, coco nibs, baking spices, and dried cranberries, followed by flavors of boysenberry, black cherry, elderberry, dark chocolate, clove, and licorice. It finishes with bramble, amaretto, and dried blue/black fruits. This wine has a classic Howell Mountain structure and tannin — big and bold but balanced in approach. The cooler vintage produced wines with higher perceived acidity and exceptional red fruit flavors and aromas.” – Danielle Cyrot, Winemaker
The CADE Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from four vineyards on Howell Mountain, including the CADE Estate Vineyard, CADE 13th Vineyard, Ink Grade Vineyard, and Cold Springs. The cooler 2019 vintage started on September 26th, with fruit from the Ink Grade Vineyard, and finished on November 2nd with fruit from 13th Vineyard.
19 months barrel aging in 100% French oak (80% new)
2019 Adaptation Cabernet Sauvignon (Plumpjack), Napa Valley, California $84.99
The 2019 Adaptation Cabernet Sauvignon is a gorgeous expression of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from a superb vintage. Revealing blackberries, black currants, and crème de cassis with hints of espresso, cocoa powder, and fine gravely undertones, this seamless full-bodied wine carries remarkable freshness and purity, delivering upfront appeal with long-term potential.
2019 Plumpjack Cabernet Sauvignon Estate, Oakville, California $221.99
The nose of the 2019 PlumpJack Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Oakville, exudes aromas of juicy blackberry, dark plum, boysenberry, and muddled raspberries, blended with notes of cardamom, cinnamon, molasses, and sage to create a gorgeous silky entry. It’s beautifully structured with finely integrated, velvety tannin, and an exceptionally long finish.
" The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is a blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot and 5% Malbec. Deep garnet-purple in color, it charges out of the gate with bold blackcurrant and blackberry preserves scents, plus hints of tilled soil, truffles and unsmoked cigars. The full-on opulent, rich, velvety palate is decadently laden with black fruit preserves and earthy accents, finishing long with a lively lift." 94 Points James Suckling
2019 Plumpjack Merlot, Napa, California $93.99
The 2021 PlumpJack Merlot is complex and layered. The nose leads with cherry, raspberry, and boysenberry, followed by sweet earth and dried herbs. The oak barrels bring depth to the nose by infusing notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, pie crust, vanilla, caramel, and hickory. These flavors carry through to the palate, which has a silky texture, firm yet plush tannin, and lively acidity. This wine has great length and finishes with an impression of espresso and baker’s chocolate.
2022 Cade Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley, California $50.99
“Our 2022 CADE Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley, has aromas of green apple, green melon, guava, floral, honeydew melon, lemon, pineapple, ripe pear, and yuzu. On the palate are flavors of lemon curd, key lime pie, grapefruit, lemon zest, and citrus. The wine is bright and fresh and has a remarkable vibrant acidity on the finish. The grapes from Oso Vineyard bring out lemon, apple, and pear flavors, which we feel are great additions to this wine. The 2022 vintage was the largest production of CADE Sauvignon Blanc ever made because of the acquisition of Oso Vineyard. The addition of Sémillon adds notes of kiwi with slight minerality, and a touch of Viognier offers textural viscosity on the palate and floral notes on the nose.” – Winemaker Danielle Cyrot
