Cabernet Sauvignon

Cabernet Sauvignon

The offspring of Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Franc, the varietal Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the most commonly found wines in the world. With the cooler climate of Virginia, these grapes are distinctively different from a California Cabernet Sauvignon. We take a classical approach by harvesting from southern facing slopes. The extended sun exposure helps to highlight the fig and black currant aromatics while preserving the tannins and acidity this varietal is known for. The extended maceration of the skins and long barrel aging help to enhance this vintages flavors of plum, olive and date. Easily one of our best pairing wines!
