The 2019 Las Posadas Proprietary Red comes from a site on Howell Mountain. While it shows the impressive structure common to many Cabernet-based wines from that AVA, this vintage is also opulent and flashy, with hints of pencil shavings accenting blueberries and cherries on the nose. Full-bodied and concentrated, it’s framed by rich, velvety tannins that linger easily on the extended finish.

Country

United States

Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.

Region

California

California as a wine producing region has grown in size and importance considerably over the past couple of centuries, and today is the proud producer of more than ninety percent of the United States' wines. Indeed, if California was a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine in the world, with a vast range of vineyards covering almost half a million acres. The secret to California's success as a wine region has a lot to do with the high quality of its soils, and the fact that it has an extensive Pacific coastline which perfectly tempers the blazing sunshine it experiences all year round. The winds coming off the ocean cool the vines, and the natural valleys and mountainsides which make up most of the state's wine regions make for ideal areas in which to cultivate a variety of high quality grapes.

Appellation

Napa Valley

When it comes to New World wines, and especially wines from the United States of America, Napa Valley is something of a standard bearer. Over its relatively short history, it has managed to transform itself from being a fairly insignificant region, to becoming one of the most important and highly regarding wine locations on earth. With an ideal climate for viticulture, blazing sunshine and a low level of rainfall, this valley is shielded on many sides by mountain ranges which help it maintain a consistent level of heat, light and moisture throughout the year. Today, Napa Valley is a home of innovation and quality, with dozens of grape varietals thriving in the fertile soils. However, the main varietals grown there have always been Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot and Zinfandel, and the wines they produce are constantly lauded by critics and competitions across the globe.

Offers captivating fruit in the form of lush, caressing waves of plum sauce, blackberry reduction and açaí berry preserves. Flashes of cast iron, walnut husk and licorice root provide textural nuance and structure, while a late curl of alder smoke lingers alluringly. Not shy in terms of scale, but everything is in proportion. It's hard to resist the fruit now, but this will cruise in the cellar. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec and Merlot. Drink now through 2044. From California.

The 2019 Las Posadas is fabulous, not to mention a great expression of this site. Inky dark fruit, chocolate, lavender, savory herbs and blackberry jam infuse the 2019 with tremendous character. Explosive and deep, with tons of Howell Mountain personality. The 2019 is showing so well today. Broad, dusty tannins extend the finish. Superb.
