2019 Vinoce St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon

It's back again! One of our best selling Cabernets from last year, and another sharp price! To recap - Vinoce's wines are crafted by cult winemaker Keith Emerson. Keith is probably best known as the longtime Director of Winemaking at Vineyard 29, but he has also made wine for the likes of Robert Craig and Cakebread. With 100-point scores to his name, Keith really knows how to coax the best out of Napa Valley Cabernet, capturing all the power and richness it has to offer, but also focusing on refinement and structure. The Vinoce bottling comes right from the heart of St. Helena (funnily enough where Vineyard 29's vineyards are) and is chock-a-block full of deep dark fruit, ripe plum, blackcurrant, marionberry, graphite, smoldering embers, dark chocolate, oak spice. Full-bodied, but not sweet, structured but polished and approachable. Seriously good bottle of modern Napa Cab clearly made by someone at the top of their game. Even at its regular $60 retail price this wine over-delivers in a big way. At our deeply discounted Insider's Advantage deal it's one of the best values you'll find in Napa today.
