Forman Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 shows dense dark-currant fruit lifted by tobacco leaf, fresh flowers, and a subtle savory edge, all wrapped in a refined, medium to full-bodied frame. The tannins are firm yet polished, giving the wine serious structure without sacrificing its immediate charm, and the finish is long, cool-toned, and impeccably balanced. This vintage stands out for its extra energy and precision compared with the more reserved 2018.

Forman Vineyard’s Cabernet Sauvignon is the estate’s flagship Napa red from Ric Forman’s St. Helena site at the base of Howell Mountain, a classically styled, Bordeaux-leaning Cabernet built for age and balance. Sourced from gravelly, volcanic soils on a small estate and often blended with Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot, it shows restrained, old‑world elegance — dark berry and cassis framed by tobacco, cedar and savory, mineral-driven tannins.
