Winemaker Notes

This wine embraces the full spectrum of fruit – blue, red and black, with perfumed layers of cardamom, cassis, and fresh earth. The 2019 Moonracer is the complete package with incredible complexity, depth and tightly packed layers that continue to reveal itself long after the sip. It is a quietly confident wine that invites reflection and leaves you salivating for more.

Critical Acclaim

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Moonracer comes from south-facing blocks on the estate in Stags Leap and is 98% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Merlot. The tannins here are a step up, and this beauty boasts a gorgeous nose of red and black fruits, tobacco leaf, violets, and spice. It’s a more elegant, medium to full-bodied, seamless wine, accurately described as an iron fist in a velvet glove by winemaker Benoit Touquette. The balance is spot on, and it has plenty of up-front appeal, yet it’s going to evolve gracefully for 20-25 years with no issues. Best After 2021
