Hayfork Lewelling Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon Saint Helena 2019

Haley Wight’s family has been farming the historic Lewelling Vineyard, located just a mile down the road from ACME in the western hills of St. Helena, since 1864. By now, most folks who care about such things know that the Wight Family’s Lewelling Ranch produces some of the most alluring and gratifying Cabernet Sauvignon in all of California. Haley, and her husband Erik, now make their own Cabernet from the vineyards surrounding her childhood home. More than the family's long-term connections and reputation for being salt-of-the-earth wine industry pillars, more than the legacy of five generations of this family producing from this vineyard… there’s more to it than all of that. Haley and Erik make honest, delicious wine and are stewards of a precious corner of this beautiful Napa Valley. 

Made from the fruit grown on the family estate ranch, the 2019 is a stunning blend of 97% Cabernet Sauvignon + 3% Petit Verdot, aged for 20 months in 75% new French oak. This energetic vintage is plush with exuberant fruit, violets, espresso roast, fragrant earth, and lively spice. This Cabernet literally sings on the palate. Only 700 cases made in this quintessential vintage.
