2019 Krupp Brothers M5 Stagecoach Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley California USA
$249.99 USD
Winemaker Notes
The latest release of the iconic M5 Cabernet opens with a complex layering of savory-sweet and mountain flora notes, violet, cardamom, black currant, oak moss and California bay leaf. The palate – with the power and depth of a wine from red rocky mountain soils – extends those elements with luscious dark fruits, blackberry, and black raspberry carried by tannins that are both robust and plush. Pair with beef tenderloin in a horseradish, garlic sauce or pasta carbonara. Drink now through 2040.

As close to black as purple can get, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon M5 Stagecoach Vineyard boasts initially closed aromas of cassis, sage and cedar. Full-bodied and intense, it's nevertheless fairly well-behaved, with fine-grained tannins, a pleasant, streamlined shape on the palate, and a long, gently dusty finish. While it demands some time in the cellar, patience will undoubtedly be rewarded.
