Hess Collection
2021 Iron Corral Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
TASTE WITH THE WINEMAKER
“This is a classic Napa Cabernet led by bold black fruit flavors, primarily black cherry and black currant, with elements of espresso and dark chocolate intertwined between the layered dark fruit notes. A wine of quality and depth, refined elements of oak showcase a composition built for aging, yet balanced, well-integrated tannins allow this wine to show beautifully for those unwilling to wait.”
– Dave Guffy, Director of Winemaking
