Anakota

Sie stehen auf der Liste aller Cabernet Sauvignon- Aficionados ganz weit oben: die raren Single-Vineyard-Cabs aus Kalifornien. Der Winzer hinter den Hochgebirgsweingärten von Anakota im Knights Valley ist kein Geringerer als Pierre Seillan, der Bordelais-Guru, der die fabelhaften Weine von Vérité, vom selben Besitzer, der Familie Jackson, herstellt. Es gibt zwei Cuvées aus verschiedenen Lagen im Knights Valley, die untere Erhebung namens Helena Montana (950 Fuss) und die Helena Dakota (750 Fuss). Die Produktion dieser Boutique- Weine reicht von der kleinsten im Jahr (2013) mit jeweils etwas mehr als 500 produzierten Kisten, bis auf (2014) 700 -800 Kisten! Dies sind alles 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, die 15 Monate in 100% französischer Eiche ausgebaut werden, bevor sie in die Flasche kommen. Diese Kult-Weine sind für eine langfristige Alterung gedacht und gehören zu den langlebigsten Weinen, die im Knights Valley produziert werden!

ANAKOTA Helena Montana

Knights Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon
Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Robert Parker Wine Advocate, December 2017 “Very deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain gives up wonderfully expressive crème de cassis, licorice, tar and underbrush notes with hints of charcuterie and bay leaves. Big, rich, full and opulent in the mouth, it has firm, velvety tannins and seamless freshness, finishing very long with spice nuances coming through.” “The blues’ raw interpretation of the pentatonic scale, with its guitar-driven laments, conveys a sense of depth and texture like no other form of music. The deep, brooding dark fruit, textural components, anise and forest floor tones of Lokoya’s 2015 Howell Mountain, like the blues, will take you to the crossroads with each sip.” — Christopher Carpenter, Winemaker

ANAKOTA Helena Montana

Knights Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon
Deep ruby, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Helena Montana Vineyard offers its cassis aromas slowly, continually unfolding to accents of lavender, cured meats, chargrill, coffee and loads of savory spices. Matured 12 months in 70% new French oak, the palate is surprisingly lifted and silky, soaring with youthful fruit and spices, focused acidity and a streak of graphite driving the long finish. 1,379 cases were made. Hélène Seillan notes that the oak is sourced from about 15 different forests in France, and its singular, spicy, integrated oak is part of what makes this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon so distinctive. Robert Parker 97/100

ANAKOTA Helena Dakota

Knights Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Helena Dakota Vineyard explodes with violets, aniseed and cast iron, with a deep core of crushed blueberries and black cherries, evolving continually with each approach to the glass. The palate is stunning with its intensity and lift, pure fruits, pixelated tannins and focused acidity that drives the very long finish. Its exceptional balance and super pure flavors, plus that characteristic streak of iron that appears across the Anakota portfolio, really take the 2019 Helena Dakota to the next level. 793 cases were made.
