Description
Promontory est un nouveau domaine présenté par Bill Harlan, propriétaire du célèbre Harlan Estate. Dans le contexte de la Napa Valley, ce vin voit le jour sur un terroir frais et particulièrement intéressant: le sol marie des schistes et de l'argile, et il y a une grande variété d'expositions au soleil. Promontory est un cabernet sauvignon vif et précis qui récompensera quelques années de garde. La grande majorité des lots sont élevés en foudres autrichiens Stockinger; la proportion de barriques neuves est limitée à 30%.

Notes de dégustation

Wineadvocate

The best wine so far (although I suspect the 2015 may ultimately enter the picture as well) is the nearly perfect 2013 Promontory Estate. It is simply richer and fuller, with greater integration of tannin, and tastes spectacular. With an opaque, dense purple color and notes of graphite, wet rocks, blackberry and blueberry fruit, some charcoal, and again, loads of spice and loamy soil nuances, the wine has great intensity, a full-bodied texture, and finely grained, sweet tannin. This is a stunner and again, accessible, but its best days are probably a good decade away, as this could very well turn out to be a 40- to 50-year wine.

Vinous

The 2013 Promontory was utterly spellbinding when I tasted it last year. Since then, it has totally shut down after its recent bottling. Beams of mountain tannin and salinity give the wine its vibrancy, energy and pure mineral-driven intensity. Graphite, leather, game, smoke and dark stone fruit overtones start to take shape, but the 2013 is in no mood to show all of its cards. The 2013 is the most brilliant wine made yet at Promontory, and it has plenty of upside.
