This Cabernet begins with fresh aromas of eucalyptus and vibrant red and black fruits. The palate follows the nose and finishes with a thread of softer tannins than you would expect from Napa Valley Cabernet. Perfect for a Cabernet lover to drink every day!
The Cooper’s Reed Cabernet Sauvignon is a pure expression of the grape – a contemporary Napa wine made with a historical perspective. The team at Heitz Cellars is incredibly fortunate to source fruit from vineyards in some of the most ideal grape-growing regions of the Napa Valley – this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is handcrafted with 81% fruit from Rutherford (of Rutherford Dust fame), 13% coming off Howell Mountain, and 6% from St. Helena. A Napa Valley Cabernet from these locales at this INCREDIBLE VALUE is practically unheard of. After a gentle fermentation, the wine was aged in old-school upright neutral casks sealed with decorative reeds- hence the name. This style of the wine harkens back to the classic historical style of Napa Cabernet, reminiscent of the era of Joe Heitz and Leon Brendel- food-friendly, fruit-driven and featuring a juicy acidity. Upon opening, this wine erupts with brambly aromas of ripe red cherry and is framed by soft, supple tannins on the palate. You’ll be thankful if you have a few extra bottles handy!
