The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Bin 149 saw 100% new oak, 80% French and 20% American. The fruit here is really powerful and drives the wine through the front palate, middle and finish. It is concentrated and long and undeterred. This is seriously smart and shows precision and detail in both the winemaking and fruit. The three Californian wines form an equal step up each time of quality, concentration and complexity—as it should be, frankly—which makes for very satisfying drinking. It contains 10.9% Australian Cabernet Sauvignon (a blend of A1 grade Coonawarra and Barossa Valley). This will drink very well early, but it will also cellar gracefully for over a decade or more. My assessment of the blend in this instance is that the sweetness of the American and Australian fruit find simpatico with one another—the dovetail is seamless.
By far and away the most recognized and widely grown red wine grape varietal in the world is the Cabernet Sauvignon. First cultivated in the 18th century in France, this wonderful cross of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc grapes has long since been the most important varietal for red wines across the globe. Now grown everywhere from its native France to the furthest reaches of the New World, Cabernet Sauvignon is adored and prized by wineries for its hardiness and resistance to rot, as well as its large and sharp flavors and wonderful capability for fine aging Indeed, many of the finest wines of history and the modern age would be simply unimaginable without Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, with the famed wineries of Bordeaux and other important regions using it as the primary grape in their oak aged produce. High tannin levels, acidity and powerful flavors are the characteristics most commonly associated with this varietal, however, when blended and slowly aged, it is capable of a world of flavors and aromas unmatched by any other grape.

Labeled as a “Wine of the World,” the 2019 Bin 149 Cabernet Sauvignon is mainly from Napa Valley with the addition of 10.9% South Australian A1 grade Cabernet Sauvignon. Most of the Napa fruit comes from selections from Treasury Wine Estates’ vineyards, such as Beringer, Sterling Vineyards, and Stags’ Leap Winery. The wine was matured for 17 months in 80% French oak and 20% American oak, all new.

An outstanding marriage of 90% American Cabernet with 10% Australian, showing juicy layers of seductive and lengthy flavor. Dried herb, dark cherry, blackberry and cassis play around an elegant structure of full-bodied complexity that should age well. Enjoy best 2029–2039. (Cellar Selection)
