Turnbull has been rooted in the culture and history of the Napa Valley, making wine of exceptional quality since 1979. Operating their small, family business from the original estate winery in Oakville, they pay tribute to their heritage while rooted in the present. It starts with their estate-grown fruit, which they carefully tend to from the ground up through to the winery. Turnbull wines are crafted with integrity and without compromise.
This particular bottling of Cabernet comes from Napa Valley's Oakville District. This is one of the more prominent regions of the Napa Valley, and is home to several of the true cult Cabernet producers! Sourced from their acclaimed Fortuna and Leopoldina Vineyards, red volcanic soils on the eastern bedrock and alluvial soils of the world famous Oakville appellation provide for stunning fruit purity. The soil type in each of their vineyards contributes its individual character to the final estate blend. Hand-picked, and crafted using age old traditional techniques; Turnbull elevated this wine in French oak barrels for 20 months, before Estate bottling this gem.
WINE SPECTATOR 95 POINTS - "Delivers a lovely burst of pure, unadulterated cassis and cherry puree, with hints of violet, singed vanilla, loam and anise. A subtly inlaid graphite spine carries the finish. Beautifully proportioned. Accessible now, but there's no rush at all. Drink now through 2036."
JEB DUNNUCK 94 POINTS - "A killer value that's up with the best at the price point, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Reserve offers medium to full-bodied aromas and flavors of currants, plums, chocolate, iron, and a touch of tobacco. Nicely concentrated, beautifully balanced, and elegant, it's a terrific wine well worth seeking out. Drink bottles over the coming 10-12 years or so."
