Hertelendy Cabernet Sauvignon
2018: 90% Cabernet Sauvignon | 8% Petit Verdot | 1% Malbec | 1% Merlot
With a total production of 437 cases of the 2018 Hertelendy Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine comes from the highly esteemed Napa areas including Pritchard Hill, Howell Mountain, Atlas Peak and Rockwell Ridge estate vineyard. Barrel aged 23 months in 90% New French and Hungarian Oak.
"The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is based on 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot, and the balance Malbec and Merlot. Beautiful crème de cassis, blueberries, flowers, cedarwood, tobacco, and rocky, mineral-like notes emerge from the glass, and it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a layered, seamless texture, building tannins, and a great finish. This rich, powerful 2018 has the vintage's purity and freshness, stunning overall balance, and the class to evolve for 20 years or more."
