Ripe blue and black fruit waft from the glass alongside violets and sweet basil. Some vanilla, too. It’s juicy and full-bodied with ripe and creamy tannins. Supple finish. Drink now.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Hypothesis boasts flashy aromas of black cherries and loamy earth, plus wisps of vanilla on the nose. It's full-bodied (labeled at 15% alcohol) but lacks textural richness, instead gliding easily across the palate until it reaches a soft, gently bitter finish.
Tasting Notes
The Hypothesis Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon is produced from one of the best vineyards in all of the Napa Valley (The Money Road Vineyard in Oakville). The wine has incredible depth and complexity, delicious black fruits and amazing opulence. Hypothesis Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon is a muscular wine that loves to be paired with food but is sophisticated enough to stand on its own.
