History: Hall Wines is located in Napa Valley and employs organic small-vine viticulture, precision winemaking, wild-yeast fermentation, and micro-block blending to fully extract the purity and quintessence of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.

Through meticulous attention to detail in the vineyards, Hall wines are able to express the unique and diverse character of Napa Valley’s soils and climate.

Tasting Notes: Inky garnet in color, the Kathryn Hall Cabernet Sauvignon exudes warmth and allure. Effusive aromas of ripe dark cherry, spiced chocolate, dusty earth, and raspberry compote spill from the glass. The entry is voluptuous, supple, and opulent, while the mid-palate features enticingly decadent dark fruit and lengthy, sweet tannins, almost defying the boundaries of richness.
