Hess Allomi Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Ships in 2-3 business days.

The combination of steady heat and well-drained clay loam soils in Hess' Allomi Vineyard allows fruit to ripen evenly, gaining welcomed complexity and layers of flavor. On the nose, the Allomi Cabernet offers enticing aromas of currant, blackberry and elegant expressions of lavender. Juicy black fruit are met with plush, well-integrated tannins, espresso and a hint of oak spice.

Boysenberry and açaí berry fruit gives this a slightly exotic profile, but it's finely stitched with apple wood, sassafras and singed anise notes to keep it honest. The polished finish lets a chaparral note chime through the flashy fruit. This should have fans for sure. Drink now through 2036.

This well-balanced, harmonious wine braces tasty dark plum, black currant and cedar flavors with moderate tannins and a good sense of freshness. Almost-sweet notes of milk chocolate, vanilla and cedar meld nicely with the ripe, delicious fruits.
