Natalie's Score: 91/100

Hess Select 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is a dry, full-bodied and rich California Cab with some Petite Sirah and Malbec added to the mix. The wine is juicy on the palate with dark berry, black currant, baking and toasty oak spice flavours. Tannins are pleasantly grippy and the wine is very approachable now. Pour with a wild mushroom bisque or steaks from the grill.

Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: Asian chicken salad, pork tenderloin, hodge-podge, grilled burgers, pork tenderloin.

Reviews and Ratings

Hess Select 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is a dry, full-bodied California Cab with some Petite Sirah and Malbec added to it. Rich and complex with layers of black currant, plum, anise, baking and toasty oak spice concentrated on the palate, the wine finishes with earthy and sous bois notes. Enjoy it through 2027 with a well-marbled steak from the grill, topped with sauteed wild mushrooms. - Community Wine Reviews
