Wine Advocate Review
Rated 93
The winery's top cuvée, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon HaLo spent 30 months in new French oak. Cassis, black cherries, cedar and brown sugar notes appear on the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is rather streamlined, focused and restrained, with a sense of elegance and ample length on the finish. Drinking Window 2025-2040.

Wine Tasting Notes
The most rare and beloved Trefethen Cabernet Sauvignon is smooth and fresh. Aromas of ripe raspberry with notes of pepper, bay leaf, and a touch of sasparilla. On the palate, this is a dark, dense Trefethen HALO Oak Knoll District Napa Cabernet, with layers of plum and raspberry, and notes of baking spices and tobacco. The finish is sustained and powerful.

FOOD AFFINITIES
This robust wine pairs exceptionally well with highly marbled steak, like Winery Chef Chris' Tomahawk Ribeye. This cut of meat is both dramatic and well-balanced and enhances the peppery berry notes of this wine, while the fat elongates its finish. Throw in the roasted potatoes and spinach to round out this dish, and this pairing will take your palate over the moon!
