Tasting notes
From a Coombsville vineyard planted in 1983, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Caldwell Vineyard is south of Farella and slightly higher in elevation; it's the latest site from which Di Costanzo sources fruit. Thyme accents add interest to the blueberry and cassis in this fairly tannic offering. It's medium to full-bodied, dusty and long on the finish, with plenty of potential given five years or more in the cellar.

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Caldwell Vineyard presents a stunning expression of this Coombsville site. Ample and potent, the 2019 has an extra kick of mid-palate richness over the 2018. Blood orange, rose petal, spice, licorice and pomegranate all build in the glass. The Caldwell balances fruit intensity with a classical interpretation of structure. The 2019 is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine.
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Caldwell Vineyard is another super-expressive wine from Massimo and Erin Di Costanzo. A Cabernet of substance and depth, the 2019 has so much to offer. Cedar, tobacco, licorice and earthy notes add aromatic nuance to a core of dark red and black fruit. The Caldwell is dense, dark and just compelling.
