HJ Fabre Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva 2019
If you’re a fan of Cabernet Sauvignon, you are not going to want to miss this barrel-aged beauty from Hervé Fabre (the 2018 IWC Red Winemaker of the Year). And we’re not the only ones singing its praises.
Master of Wine Tim Atkin rated the previous release 91 points and raved, “Originally from Bordeaux, Hervé Fabre knows a thing or two about Cabernet Sauvignon...a classic interpretation of the variety, with subtle, leafy aromas, fine tannins, some bright cherry and cassis fruit, a hint of oak spice, and good underlying texture.” And the just-launched 2019 Reserva is every bit as impressive.
The Bordeaux born-and-bred Hervé is very strict about quality—and it’s obviously paying off for those lucky enough to get their hands on his wines. His grapes, from 30-plus-year-old vines, are picked by hand and placed into small trays so they arrive at the winery in pristine condition. Just over half of the wine is aged in fine French barrels to give the perfect balance of fruit and fragrant oak character.
While the premium Mendoza subregion of Luján de Cuyo has a reputation for particularly fine Malbec, Hervé has Bordeaux in his blood, and his Cabernet Sauvignon is just as exceptional as his award-winning Malbec.
As if you needed another reason to act: we’ve only received a limited supply. Hurry.
