Allomi Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon


Perfectly acceptable Cabernet from Napa. Nose full of dark chocolates and red fruits and sweet spice, mouth full of the same but with some of the pyrazine character coming through.

The Hess Collection ‘Allomi’ Cabernet Sauvignon 2014: Medium-full bodied. Great structure & tannins. Bold dark fruits. Complex flavors of blackberry, plum, vanilla, tobacco, leather & oak. Nice smooth & long finish. Overall, a true Napa Valley Cabernet, at an amazing price point. It was an elegant & delicious vintage which definitely punched above its weigh class. Great week to all! Cheers🍷

Solid Napa Cab! Nice fruit, fairly full and rich mouthfeel, and a bit of structure.

Dec 24th, 2017Opens up nicely. Crisp red plum and blackberry bush when all the big juicy ones have already been picked. Oak and graphite. Some blueberry in there? The flavors aren't dancing as much as they could be, but the effect here is velvety.
