Kelly Fleming Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Calistoga 750mL

Vintage: 2018
Description: While in the restaurant industry, Kelly Fleming visited the Napa Valley for 20 years and fell in love with the area; anybody whos been to the valley can understand why. She purchased property in 1998 in a small, yet highly.envied area of Calistoga called Picket Road. The resident wineries of the area include Kenefick Ranch, Hundred Acre and Eisele estate so you get the amazing quality of grapes that grow in the area. Kellys 12 acres of grapes are farmed organically and meticulously. Her winemaker is Rebecca George, who had previously worked at Schramsberg, Williams Selyem and Marcassin. When Rebecca came to Kelly Fleming, she worked alongside Celia Welch (winemaker for Scarecrow), got to know the wines sense of place and Rebecca now makes one of the most gorgeous Cabernets from Napas Calistoga region. Antonio Galloni 97 Points - "If I had to pick a wine that encapsulates the essence of Calistoga, it might very well be Kelly Fleming's 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate. The darkness, the depth, the brawn, the pure power, the intense savoriness. It's all there in a majestic, explosive Cabernet that dazzles from the very first taste. Readers will have to be patient with the 2018, as it is going to need a number of years to settle down. Time in the glass brings out hints of blackberry, plum, grilled herbs, scorched earth, leather, sweet pipe tobacco and sage. Inky and spectacularly rich, and yet not at all overdone, the 2018 simply has it all. It's another tour de force from winemaker Becky George and proprietor Kelly Fleming. Don't miss it."
