1993 Bryant Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Reviews of 1993 Bryant Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

December 1995
There are just under 1000 cases of this extraordinary Cabernet Sauvignon produced from a vineyard on Pritchard Hill, a viticultural area most associated with one of Napa Valley's most conspicuous underachievers, Chappellet. Production of Bryant's Cabernet Sauvignon will drop to just over 600 cases in 1995 as one-third of the vineyard was recently replanted.

Over the next year readers should be on the lookout for some of the 1,000 case production of Don Bryant's Cabernet Sauvignon from an old vineyard on Pritchard Hill near the Chappellet Vineyard. The 1993 Cabernet Sauvignon is extraordinary. It possesses an opaque black/purple color, and a huge bouquet of black-raspberries, cassis, vanillin, licorice, and spices. The wine is super-rich, with sweet tannin, an expansive mouthfeel, and an awesome finish. It will be approachable when released, but it will not hit its stride until the turn of the century; it will last for 10-15 years thereafter. And guess what? The 1994 looks to be awesome.
About 1993 Bryant Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
About the Winery Bryant Family Vineyard
Situated high above Lake Hennessey, Bryant
Family Vineyard is one of a handful of Napa Valley vineyards that can
claim the moderating influence of a large body of water.
Winds blow over the mountains from the west, are drawn down to and
across the cool waters of Lake Hennessey and travel directly up a
natural chute to the Bryant Family Vineyard. This breezeway makes the
vineyard unique and enhances the quality of fruit as the winds cool the
grapes on hot summer days.
The uniqueness of the fruit is the basis for this special wine along
with an outstanding winemaking team and brand new, gravity fed winery
that was specifically designed and constructed for this vineyard.
