Acumen Peak Cabernet Sauvignon Atlas Peak Napa Valley 2018 - Flask Fine Wine & Whisky

Acumen Peak Cabernet Sauvignon Atlas Peak Napa Valley 2018

Acumen Estate consists of 116 organically certified acres of vines on Atlas Peak, spread across two vineyards from which a small portfolio of estate-grown wines is born. The winery bases their sought-after style of Cabernet Sauvignon on the great Cabernets of the 1960s and 70s, which helped secure Napa on the international wine map.

Acumen sells a large portion of their mountain-grown fruit to other fine wineries in Napa Valley, allowing Chappellet’s 30-year veteran winemaker Philip Titus to focus on his favorite small vineyard blocks. The 2018 vintage is graceful with an exquisite yet powerful structure due to a cooler than average summer with zero heat spikes, allowing the grapes to slowly develop full physiological maturity, depth of aromas and flavors, and an incredible overall balance between fruit, earth, and minerality.

Critical Acclaim

95 Jeb Dunnuck

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon PEAK showed nicely, with beautiful blue fruits, scorched earth, licorice, and violet aromas and flavors. With medium to full-bodied richness, it stays tight and compact on the palate, with a fresh, Bordeaux-like style in its tannins and acidity." 95 Points. Outstanding wines. These wines are outstanding for their type and are worth the extra effort to seek out.

94 Wine Advocate

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Acumen PEAK Cabernet Sauvignon charges out of the gate with energetic scents of red and black currants, fresh blackberries, and boysenberries with suggestions of camphor, cardamom, tar, and new leather plus a waft of pencil shavings. Full-bodied, concentrated, and decadent in the mouth, the palate has a solid foundation of the firm, grainy tannins, and lively freshness to support, finishing long with a pleasantly surprising floral perfume coming through at the end.
