Ashes & Diamonds

Fanciful Name: Red Hen Vineyard

Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon

Vintage: 2016

Country of Origin: United States

Retail Price: $99.99

Tasting Notes: On the palate this is beautifully structured around a medium body with fine tannins and lovely acidity at its core, keeping it bight and lively through the finish. Aromas of red berries, spices, and dried rose petals make this Napa Valley wine a stunner that will develop for years to come.

Wine Rating System

Our reviewers are given a topic (varietal, drinking occasion, price) six times a year and asked to select 3-5 wines that fit that criteria for review. Wine reviews include brief tasting notes, a rating and the wine’s retail price (which can vary from store to store and market to market). Unless noted otherwise, the price reflects a 750-ml. bottle. If you’re a beverage professional with a specialty in wine and you’re interested in participating in the panel, please contact managing editor Kyle Swartz at kswartz@epgmediallc.com or 203-855-8499 x2225.
