Alcohol 14.50%. Body Medium. Oak Oaked. Grapes 5% Cabernet Franc, 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot. Tasted by Jonathan Cristaldi (at Ulysses, Oakville, Napa Valley, 06 May 2024). Drinking Window: 2024–2040. This 2019 Ulysses Cabernet opens with red-fruited aromatics, brown baking spice, and a hint of agave, revealing candied blue fruits and dusty minerals. Full-bodied and richly layered, with succulent black fruit and emerging tannins showing black tea-like grip and intensity. Lengthy and spicy with mocha hints on the finish. A small portion of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc complement the Cabernet Sauvignon from Christian Moueix’s Oakville site.
