HGIII is composed around a core of Merlot, Petite Sirah and Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot commanding attention and delivering unmatched expressiveness. Aromas of red and black currants intertwine seamlessly with lavender and herbes de Provence, creating a floral interplay. On the palate, dark sour cherry and inky black cassis take the spotlight, supported by supple tannins and vibrant acidity. Subtle notes of light roasted coffee, plum, wild strawberry, and fennel add layers of complexity. The careful blend of 50% new and seasoned barrels ensures freshness while imparting barrel spice and structure, resulting in a wine of power, elegance and lasting impression.
ANTONIO GALLONI 91 POINTS - "The 2022 HGIII is floral, lifted and quite attractive. Crushed flowers, red berries, white pepper and orange peel lend notable brightness. Much of this fruit is from vineyards in South Napa, surely an asset in 2022."
