2019 Signorello 'S' Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

Winemaker Notes: In its introductory vintage, the 2019 S provides the perfect example of the vision for this label. Dark and dense to its core, the wine is complex, layered and nuanced. Inky in color, this wine greets you on the nose with dark black fruit, graphite, lavender, crème de cassis opening up further into herbal tea, rose petals and leather. Silky and juicy tannins elongate the length of this wine finishing up with mocha, cedar and chai spices. Rich and expressive, the S is a knockout wine that is approachable in its youth and will continue to evolve in the years to come.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Decanter - "There are bright cherry aromas lifting this 91% Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend, a mix of estate and purchased fruit. The attack is fresh, lively and spicy, with considerable zest and pungency. It doesn't sag on the mid-palate like so many Napa reds, and it's vivacious rather than complex. Quite long too."


Jeb Dunnuck - "A good value, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon S checks in as 91% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, and 2% Petit Verdot sourced from St. Helena, Rutherford, and Howell Mountain. Medium to full-bodied and opulent, yet with a good sense of freshness, it has rock-solid dark fruits as well as some scorched earth and charcoal-like notes. It will gain a touch more complexity with 2-3 years in the cellar and keep for 8-10 years."
