Goldschmidt Vineyards Game Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Goldschmidt Vineyards Game Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 is a prestigious single-vineyard wine from the heart of the Oakville appellation, an area world-renowned for producing Napa Valley’s most structured and age-worthy Cabernets. The Game Ranch vineyard is situated on the eastern side of the valley along the Silverado Trail, where the iron-rich, red volcanic soils impart a distinct mineral complexity and the famous "dusty" tannin profile characteristic of the region.
On the nose, it offers an intense and sophisticated bouquet of blackcurrant, dark plum, and black cherry, accented by classic Oakville notes of sage, graphite, and toasted cedar. The palate is full-bodied and powerful, showcasing a dense core of ripe dark fruit supported by a firm, architecturally sound structure and well-integrated oak. The finish is long and elegant, leaving a persistent trail of cocoa, savory herbs, and sweet tobacco.

This brawny, full-bodied wine offers generous cedar, toast and mint aromas over tempting red- and black-cherry flavors, all on a firmly tannic texture that's great for pairing with grilled and braised meats. Best from 2025–2033.
