Hourglass sits in the narrowest pinch of the Valley. This constriction creates a crucial thermal dynamic drawing cooler bay air up from the south. The air “bottlenecks” at the narrow channel resulting in a cooling breeze that tempers late afternoon heat.

2019’s steady and temperate growing season allowed for three separate picks of the vineyard, resulting in optimal phenolic development, pristine fruit, and intricate dimensionality in the finished wine. Meticulously balancing power and elegance, trademark dark and red fruit notes intertwine with savory baking spice, camphor, earth and tea leaf. 2019 Hourglass Estate is a textural and fresh expression of the vineyard’s unique volcanic soils, and showcases the energy, precision, and quality of the vintage

Pair this wine with bone in rib-eye or slow braised beef short rib.

Press Reviews

Antonio Galloni

98 Points

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is another fabulous wine in this range from Hourglass. It possesses tremendous depth and gravitas. Dark fruit, graphite, spice, chocolate and new leather all build as this potent, extroverted wine shows off its personality. St. Helena's Northern Corridor is famous for big, dramatic Cabernets. The Hourglass Cabernet is a terrific example. I loved the 2019 from barrel and am every bit as enthusiastic today. What a wine!

96 - 98 Points

Composed of 98% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Petit Verdot, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate has a deep purple-black color. It confidently strides out of the glass with classic cassis, plum preserves and cedar chest notes with hints of violets, graphite, unsmoked cigars and incense. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is built like a brick house, offering a firm foundation of ripe, grainy tannins and a lively backbone to support the finely nuanced layers, finishing very long and mineral laced.
