Raise a glass to Anthem's 2019 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, a rich and powerful symphony of flavors. Tantalizing aromas of black cherry, plum, currant, and warm winter spice seduce the senses, while the opulent palate showcases the distinct Mt. Veeder terroir with earthy undertones, dark blackberry mid-palate, and savory notes of olive, bay leaf, and espresso, finishing generously and lengthily, ready to enjoy now or age until 2036. Team Anthem, formed in 2009, crafts small-batch wines from Napa Valley's mountainous vineyards. Amidst the Valley's generational shift, they assembled a dream team with Jeff Ames, an explosive talent as head winemaker, and John Truchard, a skilled viticulturist managing the vineyards. Their expertise and down-to-earth professionalism embody Anthem's spirit—just the kind of folks you'd love to share a glass with. Cheers!

Suave and delicious, this velvety textured and richly flavored wine aged in all-new barrels overflows with ripe black plums and black cherries wrapped in fine-grained tannins. Tempting to drink now but the wine will become more complex and smooth from 2028-2038
