Hightower Cellars Red Mountain Reserve 2019

This blend of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Malbec and 17% Petit Verdot delivers a dense, dark red-fruited profile with oak, graphite and black fruit skins. The 2019 Red Mountain Reserve is a full-bodied wine with a firm palate and gripping tannins, showcasing the quintessential Red Mountain richness and a vivid dusty fruit essence. With aging potential spanning over a decade, if not two, it remains fresh, focused and food friendly. Offering remarkable value, I recommend grabbing a few bottles for your cellar before the price increases. Nicely done! The wine aged for 23 months in 50% Hungarian and 50% French oak, 90% new. Only 1,788 bottles were produced.
