Note di degustazione
I continue to love the wines from Celia Welch. Her 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is medium to full-bodied, elegant, and seamless, with quintessential Cabernet notes of black fruits, tobacco, earthy, herbal nuances, and a touch of chocolate. The balance is spot on, it shows the seamless, balanced style of the vintage, and it’s a joy to drink. It will last for 20-25 years.

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is Celia Welch's main wine under her Corra label and is a blend from sites in Oakville, Rutherford and Pritchard Hill, of which the latter two are also bottled separately. But this is the blend that very clearly works best in melding together the qualities of those sites. Dark, sumptuous and super-expressive, the 2019 offers terrific depth in its dark fruit, spice, tobacco and menthol flavors. Elegant and precise, the 2019 will drink well for another 10-15 years, maybe more.
Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the deep garnet-purple colored 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon explodes with vivacious scents of crushed blueberries, chocolate-covered cherries and blackcurrant pastilles with hints of menthol, unsmoked cigars and cardamom. The concentrated, full-bodied palate (15% alcohol) has a solid foundation of firm, fine-grained tannins with seamless freshness and a long, spicy finish. 350 cases were made.
