Dark berry compote, blueberry and cassis roll out of the glass in the 2019 Cakebread Cellars Benchland Select Cabernet Sauvignon, layered with mocha, violet and a gentle pastry-like sweetness from its French oak. The palate feels plush yet composed, with flowing black fruit, a creamy mid-palate and fine, powdery tannins that keep it long, juicy and polished on the finish. A standout, generous Napa vintage that’s delicious already but clearly built to age.

Cakebread Cellars’ Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a benchmark, estate-crafted red that blends fruit from prized sub-appellations such as Rutherford, Oakville, Calistoga, and the cooler Suscol watershed to showcase the valley’s diverse terroirs. Typically led by Cabernet Sauvignon with small portions of Bordeaux varieties and aged around 17 months in French oak, it offers concentrated blackberry and boysenberry fruit layered with dark chocolate, baking spice, toasty oak, and refined tannins in a polished, cellar-worthy style.
