Hall Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
$56.99
Critical Acclaim
A smoking value, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley offers classic notes of blackcurrant and blackberry fruits intermixed with more earthy, tapenade, and olive-like aromas and flavors. It too is full-bodied, has remarkable purity, a seamless texture, and a beautiful finish. It tastes like it cost 2-3 times the price.
COMMENTARY: Hall Wines have produced the quintessential Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon for more than a decade. The 2016 vintage is an excellent effort. TASTING NOTES: This wine is classic as it defines the Napa Valley red wine profile. Its aromas and flavors of pomegranate and blackberries should pair its superbly with grilled lamb chops. (Tasted: August 28, 2019, San Francisco, CA)
Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon delivers open-knit notions of Black Forest cake, crème de cassis and black raspberries with hints of tar, smoked meats and menthol plus a hint of tree bark. Full-bodied, the palate has a firm frame of grainy tannins and soft acidity supporting the savory black fruits, finishing earthy.
Spicy and earthy in plum, black currant and blackberry, this is a soft, supple and rounded wine, in balance despite a hearty ripeness and bold texture of underlying tannic grip. It sources across the appellation to showcase an approachable, robust memorable experience of powerful concentration.
