2021 Cade Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain Napa

2021 Cade Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain Napa image

The 2021 CADE Estate Cabernet Sauvignon has beautiful aromas of cherry, raspberry, cranberry, cocoa nibs, baked red delicious apples, dark chocolate, and roasted coffee. In the palate are flavors of rhubarb pie, cinnamon, clove, red cherry, and boysenberry. The wine has that classic Howell Mountain structure with great density and length in the palate. The 2021 vintage was warm and early but produced wines with great length, texture, bountiful fruit, and elegance.



The CADE Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from four vineyards on Howell Mountain, including our vineyards at CADE Estate and 13th Vineyard, Ink Grade Vineyard, and Cold Springs Vineyard. The 2021 vintage started on September 10th with fruit from the Ink Grade Vineyard and finished on October 12th with fruit from 13th Vineyard. 



Fermentation: Majority of the fermentations went through a very short maceration time between 5-7 days and hot fermentation temperatures, peaking at 92°F. The must was pressed off at between 20°-12º Brix and fermentation was allowed to finish in tank or barrel. The resulting wines have amazing color and big intensity.



Élevage: The wine received 19 months barrel aging in 100% French oak (79% new). Malolactic fermentation occurred in barrel immediately after primary fermentation. The wine was racked quarterly once malolactic fermentation was complete.



Cooperage: We use several different coopers for the Estate Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon including Allary, Ana Selection, Atelier, Bel Air, Cavin, Darnajou, D’Aquitaine, Doreau, Ermitage, Mercier, Mercurey, Nadalie, Tonnellerie O, Orion, Quintessence, Saint Julien, Seguin Moreau, Sylvain, Treuil, and Vernou.
