The Winery
Realm Cellars
Realm Cellars was founded in 2002 by sourcing fruit from some of the most distinct vineyards in Napa Valley, including To Kalon, Dr. Crane and Farella. Realm purchased land in the Stags Leap District in 2015 and introduced its first Estate wine called Moonracer. The portfolio also consists of proprietary blends based on specific varietals -- The Tempest is a Merlot blend, Falstaff is a Cabernet Franc blend, and The Bard is the signature Cabernet Sauvignon blend from vineyards throughout Napa Valley. With several 100-point scores in recent years, Realm Cellars is quickly becoming a Napa Valley cult producer. Wines are stylistically plush with plenty of fruit, very approachable in their youth, and perfect for the cellars of aficionados.
Summary
Realm Cellars’ 2021 Hartwell XX Cabernet Sauvignon is a distinguished offering from the Stags Leap District, celebrating its 20th vintage with a cuvée sourced from select hillside blocks. This wine is characterized by its deep purple hue and remarkable concentration, showcasing aromas of blackcurrant, plum, and earthy nuances, along with hints of licorice and spice. The palate is full-bodied with a creamy texture, sweet tannins, and a layered mid-palate that culminates in a powerful finish. Crafted from the Bosche and Grace clones, this limited release reflects the unique terroir of rocky volcanic soils. It promises to evolve beautifully over the next few decades.
