Tasting Notes

Reviews

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Counterpoint takes on a touch more purple in its color and a more youthful tone in its layers of blackberry, violets, graphite, and fresh leather. It offers more plushness on the palate, where this full-bodied wine reveals a velvety texture and notes of black plum, sweet soil, and tobacco. It’s lush and long on the palate, with good freshness, and it’s not heavy. Despite its attractive, youthful appeal, it certainly has some longevity ahead.

The Estate

Laurel Glen Vineyard, a thousand feet up the slopes of Sonoma Mountain, has long been considered one of the iconic Cabernet vineyards of California.

Wine Making

We had perfect grape growing weather in 2019. The days were warm but not excessively so and the nights were cooler than they’ve been in many summers, allowing for slow, even ripening.

Food Suggestions

Pairs well with  by itself or with just about anything off the BBQ. A great match with pizza, pasta and/or roast chicken.

Wine Enthusiast – 93

From the vaunted producer, this soft, approachable wine is supple and plush in its youth, ready to unfurl on the palate in baked plum and dark cherry. Baking spice and toasted oak add to the length and grace.

Wine & Spirits – 92

This wine combines estate-grown cabernet with merlot from Pickberry Vineyards, melding into velvety raspberry flavors and smoky depths of earthen savor. It’s plummy fruit married seamlessly with oak, delivering power without weight.
