2013 Hayfork Cabernet Sauvignon Antonio Galloni Review

2013 Hayfork Lewelling Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Lewelling Ranch is bright, focused and nuanced, with striking aromatics and quite a bit of complexity. Understated and classy, with attractive freshness and tons of finesse, the Lewelling Ranch shows the more polished style of the year. Even so, there is plenty of underlying tannic grip.  

Rating: 94

2013 Hayfork Field Select Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Field Select is mostly a selection of Clone 4 Cabernet. Pliant, deep and resonant on the palate, the 2013 offers striking depth, but in the mid-weight style that characterizes all of these wines. A bit more new oak here gives the wine its texture, shape and overall feel. Dark cherry, chocolate, plum and spice meld into the pliant, nicely textured finish.
