Product Description
Intense and bright ruby red color. With aromas of red fruits such as strawberry, cherries and blackberries giving way to menthol touches of eucalyptus ending with notes of wood acquired in the maturation process. On the palate, it is an elegant wine with good structure, with medium-high acidity, soft and persistent tannins and a medium-long finish.
This wine is ideal for pairing with medium to high intensity preparations. An excellent complement to meats, such as stewed Angus in a cabernet reduction and vegetables or a roasted strip with rustic puree.

Wine & SpiritsThis wine has a rooty vegetal spice to its acidity, like parsnips and kohlrabi. It’s austere, dry and multidimensional. The light red fruit comes up with air, meeting the rooty, earthy notes, lasting with a contrapuntal complexity. The texture is silken, light enough for grilled game fish—or cellar it to let the potentially graceful structure develop.
A noble variety bestowed with both power and concentration, Cabernet Sauvignon enjoys success all over the globe, its best examples showing potential to age beautifully for decades. Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes in Bordeaux's Medoc where it is often blended with Merlot and smaller amounts of some combination of Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. In the Napa Valley, ‘Cab’ is responsible for some of the world’s most prestigious, age-worthy and sought-after “cult” wines. Somm Secret—DNA profiling in 1997 revealed that Cabernet Sauvignon was born from a spontaneous crossing of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc in 17th century southwest France.
