Acumen Winery is known for its high-quality, hand-crafted wines that are produced in small quantities. Located in the heart of Napa Valley, the winery's vineyards are situated on the rugged slopes of the Mayacamas Mountains, providing the perfect terroir for growing world-class Cabernet Sauvignon.

The 2019 Mountainside Cabernet is a blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, and 4% Cabernet Franc. This wine showcases the unique character of the Acumen Mountainside Vineyard, with a rich and complex flavor profile that reflects the terroir of the region.

The 2019 vintage was an excellent year for grape growing in Napa Valley. Following winter rains that saturated the soils, the vines coming out of dormancy had ample water to ensure a healthy bud break. The growing season brought cooler-than-average temperatures throughout spring and summer, which resulted in exceptional flavor development.

The 2019 Mountainside Cabernet has a deep ruby color, with aromas of black currant, blackberry, and cedar. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and well-structured, with flavors of dark fruit and hints of spice. The wine has a subtle underlying power that reflects its mountain origins, and a long, smooth finish.

This wine is a perfect choice for fans of Cabernet Sauvignon and is sure to be a hit at any gathering or special occasion. It pairs well with a variety of dishes, including grilled meats, hearty stews, and rich cheeses.

Acumen Winery is dedicated to producing high-quality, small-lot wines that showcase the unique character of the Napa Valley region. The 2019 Mountainside Cabernet is a testament to this commitment, and is a must-try for anyone who appreciates fine wine.
