Hess Allomi Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Napa Valley, California, United StatesAllomi is a blend of 85% cabernet sauvignon, 10% petite sirah, 1% malbec, 2% merlot, and 2% petit verdot from a site located on the northeastern side of Napa Valley. Aged for 18 months in 30% new American oak, this nuanced Napa cabernet opens with a slightly lifted yet intriguing nose of mixed berries, raspberry, and redcurrant, blended with savoury dill, sweet vanillin, and dried lavender. A medium-full bodied palate, lighter than expected for 14.5%, is packed with ripe red and dark fruit framed by freshness and fine grained tannins, leading to a bittersweet, dark chocolate finish.Tasted: 29 March 2025Tasted by: HJ ChaPrices:
