Freemark Abbey Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Freemark Abbey’s 2019 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, meticulously crafted by winemaker Kristy Melton, is a quintessential example of classic elegance.

In the glass, it unveils a deep garnet hue, hinting at the richness within. The aromas are an enticing blend of dark chocolate, pomegranate, cedar shavings, blackberry, and a subtle hint of leather. As you take your first sip, a symphony of flavors dances across the palate. Notes of blueberry compote, black cherry, espresso, and a touch of cigar box are beautifully harmonized, creating a lush and indulgent experience.

What sets this wine apart is its bright and juicy fruit-forward profile, giving it a lively and approachable character. The texture is rich and bold, underpinned by well-structured tannins that provide both immediate pleasure and the promise of aging gracefully in the cellar for decades.

This exceptional blend, consisting of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon complemented by 5% Merlot, 2% Malbec, 2% Petit Verdot, and 1% Cabernet Franc, showcases the artistry of winemaking. Jeb Dunnuck, with a score of 91 points, acknowledges its charming, sweetly fruited nature, making it a standout wine destined for greatness. Freemark Abbey’s 2019 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a true testament to the enduring quality and craftsmanship of this esteemed winery.
