Colgin Tychson Hill 2009 is a noteworthy expression of Cabernet Sauvignon from a historic Napa vineyard established in the 1990s by Ann Colgin. Situated in the Mayacamas Mountains, the Tychson Hill vineyard is renowned for its unique volcanic soil, contributing to the wine’s distinct character. The 2009 vintage reveals complex aromas of dark fruits, subtle floral notes and an underlying mineral quality. On the palate, it showcases a balanced structure and finesse, with intriguing hints of spice.

Vinous
(all of this fruit was in before the heavy mid-October rainfall, according to Ann Colgin; this was the first vintage with include the new 1.3 hectares of vines planted in 2007, including bits of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot): Deep, saturated ruby. The vibrant, highly aromatic nose offers notes of plum, hard candy and incense. Superripe and voluminous but not a bit heavy or cloying in spite of the compelling, almost chocolatey sweetness of its primary sweet berry fruit. The wine's floral perfume lingers long on the suavely tannic, firmly mineral back end. Our earliest-drinking 2009, noted Allison Tauziet. Stephen Tanzer1st April 2015
