Details
Realm 2021 Houyi Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon stands out with its distinguishing characteristics that set it apart in the realm of mountain wines. Bursting with vibrant red fruit aromas, this wine exudes an enticing aromatic profile that draws you in from the first swirl. Unlike many wines from mountain sites, it showcases a softer, more approachable style, with tannins that are notably gentle on the palate. This unique feature defies expectations, offering a wine that is both rich and complex yet remarkably smooth and easy to enjoy. With its harmonious balance and inviting texture, Realm 2021 Houyi Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a true testament to the exceptional terroir of Pritchard Hill's Houyi Vineyard.
Antonio Galloni - 97 Points
"The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Houyi Vineyard is silky, delicate and very pretty. In that sense, it is a classic wine for this year. Crushed red berry fruit, cedar, mint, tobacco and a kiss of French oak all grace this unusually supple, racy Cabernet Sauvignon. Beautifully persistent, the 2021 is all understatement and class. This is an especially mid-weight style for Pritchard Hill. Perhaps because of that, the new oak is a touch prominent. The 2021 is a blend of five blocks off this site, all Cabernet Sauvignon. I expect this wine will become more complex as Realm now has access to the entire property."
