Note di degustazione
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Métisse Jumping Goat Vineyard emerges from a site on the other side of St. Helena, closer to Spottswoode and Madrona Ranch. It offers up generous red berry fruit intermingled with strong savory, earthy and tobacco accents that add layers of nuance. This potent, impeccably balanced Cabernet should start to drink beautifully in a few years, once the tannins soften a bit.

From a site just behind Spotteswoode, the 2019 Metisse Jumping Goat Vineyard is 91% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, and 1% Petit Verdot. More blackcurrants, chocolate, smoked tobacco, and scorched earth notes define the nose, and this ruby/purple-hued beauty is medium to full-bodied with a wonderfully fresh, herbal, classic Cabernet character, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It's a beautiful, elegant wine.
The 2019 Metisse Jumping Goat Vineyard is a blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot. A barrel sample with a deep garnet-purple color, it prances out of the glass with vivacious notes of crushed blueberries, kirsch and blackcurrant jelly with hints of violets, cedar chest, wild sage and tilled soil. Full-bodied, the palate is jam-packed with energetic black fruits, supported by ripe, grainy tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing long and perfumed.
