Rothwell Hyde is the highly coveted proprietary red blend from legendary viticulturist David Abreu and winemaker Brad Grimes, serving as a brilliant, more accessible window into the estate’s single-vineyard terroirs. Sourced from choice, low-yielding blocks across Abreu’s elite estate properties—including Madrona Ranch, Thorevilos, and Cappella—this masterfully blended Cabernet-based wine brings all the meticulous farming and elite winemaking pedigree of the flagship bottlings into a more forward, expressive style. The 2022 vintage is an triumph of balance and precision, jumping from the glass with a high-toned bouquet of crème de cassis, dark plum preserves, and black cherries, seamlessly layered with complex signatures of graphite, espresso bean, and fresh violets. On the palate, the wine delivers spectacular depth and a plush, velvety core of dark fruits, effortlessly kept light on its feet by an energetic line of natural acidity. Framed by fine-grained, smooth tannins that provide a sophisticated, upright structure, it glides into a long, polished finish touched by mineral tension and dusty cocoa. This is a deeply pedigreed, luxurious Napa Valley red that offers immense gratification today but will thrive in the cellar for the next fifteen years.
