About 20 years ago, David Ramey was part of a select group of winemakers who became tired of "laboratory" or "squeaky clean" wines devoid of character. He wanted to bring terroir back into wines from California, and his success was the benefit of the consumer! David Ramey became known throughout the wine world as a winemaker associated with stellar quality, and he brought his expertise to brands such as Chalk Hill, Matanzas Creek, Dominus Estate, Rudd Estate, as well as his own brand. While the Ramey Chardonnays have been on the "center stage" for a few years, this release shows that his Cabernets can hang with some of the best in the Napa Valley...and at a MUCH lower price than others that sell for exponentially more!
JEB DUNNUCK 95 POINTS - "A ripe red/purple color, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley is fresh, minty, and ripe with cassis, tobacco, wet stone, and cedar. Full-bodied, it’s plush and velvety in texture and elegant all the way through, and it has a great deal of levity without any austerity. Drink 2024-2045."
