What to Expect

California's Napa Valley has been a source of world-class Cabernet Sauvignon for well over a century. Its warm climate and varied terrain allows for many styles of wine. One thread that runs through almost all the Cabernet based wines from Napa is their lush, ripe full-bodied feel and rich flavors of currant and berry. Wines from the valley floor, particularly around Rutherford, are famed for a dusty quality and those coming from the hillsides surrounding the valley, Mt. Veeder, Diamond Mountain and Howell Mountain for example, tend to be a little leaner with more obvious structural elements.

Winemakers Notes

2005 Hartwell Miste Hill Super rich, broad and expansive, with layers of ripe currant, blackberry, black cherry and plum notes, framed by spicy, toasty, jazzy oak. Finishes with a long, mouthcoating aftertaste that keeps pumping out the rich fruit flavors. Drink now through 2013.J.L. Vol 4 No 19 May 14, 2008This is a California Wine

My first "aha!" experience with Cabernet. This was at the tail end of a tasting, and it was brilliant. I've had many California Cabernets, and this was special. This one is loaded with ripe dark fruits up front. I remember thinking blueberries, blackberries, black cherries, and plums. It has a long lingering finish. It was bold, beautiful, and exciting. The opening is so good that you almost don't care about the (very good) mid-palate and the finish.
