Dark, layered fruit defines the 2018 Abreu Rothwell Hyde Red, with saturated blackberry and plum wrapped in notes of cocoa, espresso, and warm spice, all carried on a powerful yet polished frame. The palate feels deep and confident rather than showy, with concentrated cassis, a hint of graphite and bay leaf, and fine-grained tannins that promise substantial evolution in the cellar. This vintage stands out for its combination of richness, intensity, and drive, delivering the complexity and presence of a flagship Napa blend.

Rothwell Hyde is Abreu Vineyards’ signature Napa red—an elegant, Bordeaux-style co-fermented blend drawn chiefly from David Abreu’s Madrona Ranch and Cappella sites on the western edge of St. Helena. It typically leans on Cabernet Sauvignon with meaningful proportions of Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot (and some Merlot/Malbec in certain years), showing concentrated dark-fruit, floral lift and firm, age-worthy tannins that speak to Abreu’s meticulous vineyard-driven approach.
