Appellation: Lodi Blend: 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, 10% Tannat, 5% Petite Verdot Aging: Five months - New French and American Oak WINEMAKER NOTES: The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon is rich and complex, but still easily approachable. Its dark cherry and toasted oak aromas tantalize the taste buds that will savor juicy black currant, raspberry and dark cherry flavors. This luscious, well-balanced, wine has a sweet middle palate that finishes with a lovely toasty oak component. SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Often referred to as the King of Wines, Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic pairing partner for a variety of roasted, broiled or barbequed beef dishes. Its magnificent flavor and structure also works well with lamb, wild game such as venison and wild boar, hearty vegetarian dishes, as well as strong cheeses.
