Freddy R. Troya

From one of the most selective vineyard sites in Amici’s portfolio, the 2021 Hirondelle 100% Cab Sauv is a stunning expression of the Stags Leap District’s signature elegance and power. Nestled on the eastern side of Napa Valley, this vineyard sits on a dramatic mix of volcanic rock and river sediment, terroir that delivers depth, precision, and age-worthy structure.

100% Stainless Steel fermentation; Aged 18 months in 100% new French oak barrels offers a great package.
The nose is richly perfumed with cherry cordial, cassis, orange marmalade, and crushed violets. The palate follows with layers of blackberry, black cherry, and baking spice, leading to a mouthwatering finish wrapped in refined, polished tannins.

Produced in very limited quantities, this wine offers immediate pleasure with the promise of long-term reward. A cellar-worthy stunner. Grab two, you’ll definitely thank yourself later. Cheers!
