Signorello 2018 Padrone Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
95 Points
This is a fantastic new Cabernet From Signorello Estate. Limited.
95 Points James Suckling: "A full-bodied red with blackcurrant and crushed-stone undertones, as well as just a hint of chocolate powder. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm tannins that are polished and nicely crafted. Fresh and reserved palate, giving the wine pleasing austerity and focus. Drink after 2024."
95 Points Decanter: "Evidently youthful, this is still reserved and undemonstrative on the nose, although it became more fragrant with aeration. Flamboyant and spicy, this is very concentrated and shows ample energy and exceptional length. Level-pegging with 2018 Padrone in terms of quality, but a touch more racy and polished. The first vintage crafted by Signorello's new consultancy team of Steve Matthiasson (viticulture) and Celia Welch (winemaking)."
95 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "Signorello's flagship is the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Padrone, a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc and 3% each Malbec and Merlot, all aged in 50% to 60% new French oak. It's impressively floral and tea-like on the nose, with hints of menthol accenting cassis and blackberry fruit, while the medium to full-bodied palate is welcoming and rich, with a long, velvety finish and a touch of warmth. Best After 2024."
Just about every wine they make turns our head – and they do it quietly – but now even the critics are catching on. Signorello’s rocky soils, combined with the cooling influences of the bay, always mean that this will be a rich, ripe, supple Cab with a measure of grace, and a long life ahead of it.
