Reviewed August 2022From a cooler site on Chalk Hill Road, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon SJ Ranch offers stony, gravelly aromatics, with blackcurrant fruit and damp, forested earth. Persistent in its fruit, which unfolds with lavender, graphite, and plum skin, the structure builds and will be outstanding over the next couple decades. (AF)

An elegant Cabernet with power, structure, and tannins softened by the silky layers and texture that Katz's wines are known for. Notes of earth, granite, and black fruit on the nose with earth, granite, cocoa, and minerality or chalkiness on the palate. Despite the complexity and power, this wine exudes freshness and vibrancy. The finish is long and smooth and will have you wondering if this may be a Cabernet that spent 22 months in (90%) new oak. (BH)
