A 21-year-old Napa Cab from one of the region's most celebrated joint ventures. Hyde de Villaine (HdV) is the partnership between Larry Hyde — owner of the legendary Hyde Vineyard in Carneros — and his cousin Pamela de Villaine, wife of Aubert de Villaine of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. Founded in 2000, the project brings Burgundian sensibility to Napa fruit, working exclusively from Hyde Vineyard sources. Belle Cousine — named in Pamela's honor — is HdV's flagship red, a Bordeaux-style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from the eastern edge of Carneros. The 2005 vintage was cool and slow-paced, giving the wine pronounced acidity and gradual flavor development. More than two decades on, this is fully mature: silky, savory, and elegant in a way few Napa Cabs ever achieve.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

A natural with rare roast beef, herb-crusted rack of lamb, duck confit with cherries, mushroom-laden dishes like a wild mushroom risotto, grilled portobello, or a board of aged Comté and farmhouse cheddar.

Tasting Profile

Medium- to full-bodied, fully resolved tannins. Mature aromas of cedar, dried black currant, tobacco leaf, dried herbs, and forest floor. The palate is silky, savory, with bright acidity and a long, refined finish.
