About the Dana Helms Cabernet
Dana Estates Helms Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a prestigious single-vineyard Napa Valley red from Rutherford, crafted in a polished, cellar-worthy style. It shows the classic character of Cabernet Sauvignon from the Rutherford Bench, with dark berry fruit, cassis, plum, spice, graphite, cocoa, and refined dusty tannins.
Powerful yet elegant, this Cabernet delivers impressive structure, depth, and a long, luxurious finish. Dana Estates describes Helms Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon as its most classically styled bottling, inspired by old-world balance while expressing Napa richness.
Food Pairing:
Prime rib, grilled ribeye, braised short ribs, lamb chops, roasted game, aged cheddar, or mushroom-based fine dining dishes.
97 Point - Jeb Dunnuck
Showing consistently (if not a touch better) than earlier this year, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Helms Vineyard is a medium to full-bodied, complex, incredibly satisfying Cabernet offering lots of cassis and plum fruits, ripe, integrated tannins, wonderful purity of fruit, and lifted, exotic notes of candied violets, tobacco, and spice. It's drinking nicely today, but it should have two decades of overall longevity.
96 Point - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Helms Vineyard comes from the eight-acre parcel adjacent to the winery, on the northern end of the Rutherford Bench, snuggled up under the Mayacamas range. Longtime fans of Napa Cabernet Sauvignon might recognize it as the former Livingston-Moffett site. Planted to the See selection and Clone 337, it boasts super ripe dark-fruit notes—think dimpled black cherries and cassis—enlivened with hints of mint and sage on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is concentrated and rich, with a long velvety finish.
93 Point - Wine Spectator
Ripe and with good buried energy as a brambly hint runs underneath the core of raspberry and red currant reduction. Sleek, with savory, violet and licorice notes adding fuel to the finish.
