San Antonio Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
San Antonio Valley, Central Coast, California, USA
Dark red purple in the glass. Abundant nose of black currant and blackberry. Palate echoes the nose juicily with medium plus tannins and medium acidity. This is a solid Cabernet with great structure and a deep vein of blue and purple fruit (thank you, li’l dab of Petite Sirah) that’s at home with almost the full range of “red wine” dishes from burgers to pasta to stews to steaks. Drink now through 2021 or so.

Feb 2nd, 2019Deep purple in the glass. Abundant nose of cassis and ripe blueberries. Medium full body envelopes a concurring palate. Well structured with medium plus tannins and medium acidity. A Cabernet Sauvignon that will appeal to the formal and casual crowds (that dollop of Petite Sirah works wonders). At home on both the picnic and dining room tables; burgers and porterhouse. QPR through the roof!

Mar 5th, 2021Dark ruby hue with high saturation. Aromas and flavors of cassis, cedar, cherry, graphite, licorice, mocha, plum, and smoke. Full-bodied, with heavy tannins and medium-high acidity. Bold, balanced, and intense on the palate. A long, satisfying finish with a hint of pepper and vanilla. Incredible QPR.
