Description
Explore the legacy of Grgich Hills Cabernet, a standout red wine from a revered Napa Valley estate. This family-owned winery traces its roots to 1977, when Vintner Hall of Fame member Miljenko "Mike" Grgich teamed up with Austin Hills. Mike's craft gained global acclaim through the 1976 Paris Tasting, where his Chardonnay triumphed over top French contenders. Today, the estate upholds a dedication to sustainable practices across five vineyards, skipping artificial fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides while embracing wild yeast fermentation to create handcrafted wines that pair seamlessly with meals, offering balance and elegance.
In the glass, this full-bodied Cabernet delivers a classic profile with firm tannins and a hearty, grippy texture. Notes of black cherries, black olives, currants, and subtle black pepper emerge, evoking the storied heritage of great 1980s vintages. Critics have taken note: Wine Enthusiast awards it 94 points, praising its depth and structure, while James Suckling gives 92 points for the fruity aromas of ripe currants, stewed raspberries, blackberries, coffee, and mint chocolate, alongside a rich, chewy finish.
Crafted from organically grown grapes in California, this 750 ml bottle clocks in at 14.50% ABV with a dry sweetness level. It captures the essence of Napa Valley's prestige in every sip, ideal for collectors and enthusiasts who value wines with proven pedigree and refined character. Whether savoring solo or sharing at a gathering, Grgich Hills Cabernet stands as a testament to timeless winemaking artistry, ready to elevate your red wine experience.
From the rolling estate vineyards to your table, this Cabernet embodies commitment to quality without compromise. Its poised intensity and layered nuances make it a compelling choice for those seeking a sophisticated, food-friendly red that resonates with history and excellence.
