ESTATE CABERNET SAUVIGNON
gourmet pairings
The wine pairs perfectly with lamb chops
on a golden bed of polenta, vineyard
mustard greens, wild mushrooms,
and a Staglin cabernet reduction sauce.
tasting notes
The wine has an archetypal Old World
sauvignon nose laden with classic aromas of cassis, black cherry, and redolent
with violet-lifted black olives and green peppercorns. The aromas cascade
onto a rich and vibrant palate of anise-highlighted blackcurrants and peppered
plums. Tingly notes of powdered minerals and a fresh acidity combine to give
length to the well-formed tannins.
winemaker's insight
Certified organic farming practices characterize the grape growing process
and enhance fruit and wine quality. The vineyard crew thins the clusters two to
four times during each growing season to balance each vine. The clusters that
remain get more nutrients and grow grapes with optimal flavor. Adding multiple
clone and rootstock combinations to each vineyard block increases biodiversity
and flavor complexity.
