Goedhuis, August 2023, Score: 95-97
Deep garnet colour, this 2019 radiates from the glass, lucid and gleaming. The nose is a firework of dark berry fruits with hints of liquorice, violet and menthol. Delicious dark Cabernet Sauvignon flavours of blackcurrant welcome you immediately on the palate which has a soothing velvet texture. This is so supple and so rewardingly approachable, and as you sip it slowly builds in character to show a more serious side. There is restrained muscle and power, highlighting the quality of the origins of the fruit from the very finest locations in the Napa. A joy to taste now giving immediate pleasure, but with such a calibre of high-class fruit that it also has a tremendous long-term future. Drink 2023 – 2043.
Region
Napa Valley
This small town north of San Francisco has grown up to be one of California’s most famous wine regions. It is home to opulent Cabernets and sweetly-spiced Zinfandels, grown across many sub-regions including Stags Leap, Rutherford, Oakville and others. Cooling ocean fogs roll in from the Pacific at night and burn off in the summer sunshine, keeping the region cooler than you would expect for its latitude, and help produce some of the best Californian wines. Napa wines have the concentration and structure to age magnificently.
