Tasting Notes

Our 2019 Hewitt Cabernet Sauvignon is round, rich and polished, with amazing structure and depth. Dark crimson in color with fresh red and black berry aromatics and flavors. Juicy black raspberry, black currant, and black cherry notes are supported by delicate rose petal and chaparral herb notes. There are also baking spice notes of caramel-crème brûlée, cinnamon and cedar, from the well-integrated oak character. Multi-layered with a creamy textured mouthfeel, macerated dark berry fruits unfold alongside perfumed floral notes, finishing with a lifted freshness and a focused persistence from the bright acidity. The lengthy finish is mouthwatering and graceful, with smooth tannins, and subtle hints of espresso and graphite. Rich and incredibly drinkable upon release, but certainly cellar worthy. This is a wine that truly exemplifies both the personality of Hewitt Vineyard and the fantastic 2019 vintage.

      Vintage Notes
      The 2019 Napa Valley harvest started one to two weeks later than previous years due to February rains. Spring continued to be wet with some rain during flowering, followed by cool temperatures that allowed the grapes to mature gradually. Most grapes ripened at lower sugars, thanks to the extended, cool growing season, and winemakers were pleased with the full flavors, fresh acidity, and superb balance of the 2019 fruit. The resulting crop showed a modest yield with a slightly more compact structure and extract than in previous years.
