The 2019 Correlation Wine Company Cabernet Sauvignon is a powerhouse from a spectacular vintage, yet, following on-trend with past vintages, the wine is very approachable and enjoyable right from the start. However, don’t let that fool you as this is a serious wine with plenty of aging potential for those looking to follow the evolution in your cellar. The blend of the 2019 turned out to be more heavy on Cabernet Sauvignon, coming in at 92%, with the remaining varietals of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot making pretty equal proportions of the other 8%.
As we’ve said many times in the past, my winemaking partner Martha McClellan and I focus on allowing the vineyard and the vintage to shine through. We want our wines to be authentic expressions of where they come from, and true to the varietals we work with. Our job as winemakers is to put as much effort into farming, and work very closely with our growers for the Correlation Wine Co., so that the wines tell the unique story we aim to share with you. Every so often along comes a vintage like 2019, where conditions were near perfect, and our job is made that much easier, and we have the opportunity to craft a wine that stands above others. This is a truly beautiful wine, and one we are very proud to call our own at Correlation Wine Company.
