2021 Cabernet Sauvignon

We ship to all states except Mississippi.

“As we continue to pursue wine grapes that exhibit the best varietal expression, I am pleased to introduce our 2021 Paso Robles Cabernet. At the harvest of 2021, we had an opportunity to acquire Cabernet fruit from the well-respected Paso Robles region, so we enthusiastically took advantage of this source. As one who enjoys beef, I suggest a food pairing with a smokey character such as a simple cut on the barbecue or a peppercorn steak which will underscore this wine’s bright fruit quality.” 

A red velvet hue sets the tone for a plush and lively Cabernet Sauvignon. Aromas of carnations, hard cherry candy and a slight minty note, lead into a round and luscious mouth-feel. Red fruit flavors of raspberry and royal cherry along with some baking spice, evoke a whiff of fresh and warm berry pastry. 

The 2021 vintage had a relatively temperate growing season putting the harvest behind by about two weeks. Add on-going drought conditions, and Cabernet Sauvignon vines produced smaller, more concentrated fruit with lower yields. The conditions produced expansive flavors and manageable tannins. 

Handpicked, crushed, and fermented in small fermentation tanks. Aged in American oak barrels.  

As California’s largest geographic appellation, the Paso Robles AVA contains a greater day-to-night temperature swing than any other in the state. It has distinct meso-climates, diverse soils, and a long growing season. Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-style blends are a staple in the vineyards of this renowned appellation.
