Tasting Notes -

Across the valley, Napa's 2019 vintage for Cabernet is showcasing notes of both black and red fruit. Rockmere’s 2019 is no different - layering blackcurrant and blackberry with red cherry. Hints of sage, rosemary, and lavender complement the fruit character nicely thanks to the vineyard’s rocky soil.

The wine also maintains a firm structure while added time in French oak barrels (28 months), provides a long, velvety finish. Similar to last year’s bottling, the ’19 will thrive in the cellar for 15-20 years. However, no fear, the wine opens beautifully as soon as it’s uncorked!
