2020 Cabernet Sauvignon, Oakville
Napa Valley
TASTING NOTES: Sourced from a renowned wine-growing region that is known for its exceptional quality wines, this particular wine showcases powerful, rich and structured characteristics due to the volcanic and clay soils and high elevation weather conditions. This indulgent wine is a complex blend of dark cherry and black plum flavors, with hints of cranberry and citrus for added depth. It finishes with firm and silky tannins. A true delight, this wine is meant to evolve over time, with a lifespan of 10-12 years.
FOOD PAIRING: The bold, robust flavors and tannins in this cabernet pair nicely with proteins like steak, veal, lamb, or bison. Complex spices, not spicy, but flavorful, bring out the fruit characteristics of this wine. Plant-based pairings like olives, eggplants, and mushrooms prepared with fresh herbs work well.
