Marietta Cellars ‘Arme’ Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 – 750ml Breakthru

94pts Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

The 2019 Armé Cabernet Sauvignon has a medium ruby-purple color and layered aromas of red and black currants, violet, iron, underbrush and mushrooms. The medium-bodied palate is pleasantly rustic and a touch chewy, with bright acidity, pretty floral perfume and an earth-laced finish.

93pts James Suckling

Rounded aromas of red cherries, nutmeg and sage. Full-bodied with fine, structured tannins. A solid core of black and red fruits with lovely notes of black tea and toasted herbs. Walnut and green tobacco too. Very good length and balance. 82% cabernet sauvignon, 12% merlot, 3% malbec and 3% petit verdot.

Winemaker Notes

This is an exemplary California Cabernet aromatic experience filled with dried minty herbs and lavender. Blackberries, bright cherries, and plums, with hints of leather and tobacco, all intertwine for a wonderfully balanced mouthfeel. Sumptuous yet racy, polished yet spirited, delicious and gratifying—it is an iconic culmination in the glass.
