Description

The 2021 Houyi Vineyard from Realm Cellars is a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Houyi vineyard on Pritchard Hill in Napa Valley, California. Situated at an elevation of almost 1,300 feet, the vineyard is known for its volcanic soils that contribute to the concentration and complexity of the grapes.

In the glass, the wine presents itself with a deep garnet color. The bouquet opens with powerful aromas of blackcurrant jam, stewed plums and fruit cake, complemented by nuances of charcoal, wild sage, mossy bark and black olives. The palate offers a full body with firm, grainy tannins and a refreshing acidity that supports the densely packed black fruit notes, resulting in a long and earthy finish.

With a limited production run of less than 1,000 cases, this wine is a sought-after choice for collectors and lovers of premium Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. The combination of Pritchard Hill’s unique terroir and Realm Cellars’ craftsmanship results in a wine that is both enjoyable now and has potential for further aging.

Obtaining the grapes from the best Napa Valley vineyards has been Realm Estates' philosophy since its inception in 2002. Realm's wines have since become the gems of Napa Valley. The wine portfolio includes both vineyard bottlings and proprietary blends. The single vineyard wines are place-driven terroir. The blends such as the famous The Bard are made from varieties in the tradition of the great wines of Bordeaux. The Realm wines now have a cult status and are especially famous because they are accessible fairly quickly but can also rest for decades in the cellar - so something for everyone.
