Kathryn Hall 2016 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
97 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon
Kathryn Hall sashays out of the glass with beguiling notions of warm black and
red currants, fresh blackberries, black raspberries and boysenberries with
touches of rose hip tea, forest floor, pencil shavings and violets. Full-bodied
with a taut foundation of firm, fine-grained tannins and bags of freshness, it
has layer upon layer of perfumed black and red fruits, finishing long and
fragrant.
96 points Wine Spectator
A beauty, with creamed plum, braised fig and melted black
licorice notes that are long and deep, gliding through effortlessly and ending
with a swath of espresso, loam and smoldering tobacco details. Hard to resist
now, but will cruise in the cellar.
95 points Jeb Dunnuck
Loads of blue fruits, kirsch liqueur, crushed violets,
spring flowers, and orange blossom notes emerge from the 2016 Cabernet
Sauvignon Kathryn Hall. This exotic, sexy 2016 has a light, elegant texture,
nicely integrated acidity, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. It's another
wine that blends power and elegance beautifully.
