Coming from the top of the estate property on Wappo Hill (540 feet in elevation) the 2022 Hartwell XX has a brilliant nose of darker currants violets orange blossom and tobacco with some classic Pauillac-like tobacco and cedar nuances. It's rich full-bodied has a deep layered mouthfeel and ripe tannins. This beauty isn't going to make you forget the magical 2021 but we're clearly not far off and this is already upfront and accessible. It will deliver the goods over the coming 15+ years.

The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Hartwell XX is packed with explosive dark fruit chocolate licorice and new leather. Inky and deep the Hartwell is terrific. Ripe black cherry plum incense licorice and chocolate are all dialed up. The 2022 is extroverted and quite potent. - By Antonio Galloni on December 2024 These 2022 Cabernet Sauvignons from Realm provide a good opportunity to examine how various sites performed in what was a very challenging vintage. I thought the Farella Cabernet Sauvignon fared best in 2022 in line with many wines from Coombsville that are especially strong. Ultimately though the 2022s represent a point in a long-term trajectory that is among the most impressive in Napa Valley. Realm started as a virtual brand with no physical assets. Today under the leadership of Scott Becker and Benoit Touquette Realm has acquired numerous estate vineyards and winemaking facilities assets that eliminate questions about future viability that impact so many other wineries.
