2019 Sixteen by Twenty Cabernet Sauvignon

WSI95 The Sixteen by Twenty Napa Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 begins with a deep nose of rich blue and black berries penetrating cherries dark chocolate bay leaf and supple leather. Although the palate is seemingly weightless it has a focus and concentration that belies its elegant beginnings. Flavors of ripe blackberries and concentrated black cherries are so well integrated that it just begs you to keep tasting it. On a side note we tasted this along side 30 other wines and it really stood out among the rest. The winemaking brilliance shows through with clarity. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from two estate mountain vineyards Howell Mountain and the home estate vineyard on Mt Veeder. Clones Clones 337 and 4. Aged in 50% new French oak barrels for 24 months.
