Featured Cabernet Sauvignon Pairings

William Hill Cabernet Sauvignon V21 750ML

Our 2021 William Hill Cabernet Sauvignon opens with aromas of dark fruit and baking spice. The softly textured palate is marked by notes of blueberry compote, fig and caramel with subtle hints of vanilla and dried herbs.

Smith & Hook Cabernet Sauvignon V21 750ML

Aromas of bing cherry, blackberry and cassis with hints of chocolate mocha and caramel. The palate is full-bodied and rich with flavors of ripe berries and dark fruit, supported by silky tannins and notes of vanilla marshmallow and layers of spice on a complex, long finish. <br><br> While below average winter rainfall led to some light early spring irrigation, the 2021 growing season continued with favorable warm spring weather that aided vines to reach max canopy height. Summer temperatures heated up and slowed down vine growth as vines transitioned into fruit development. Weather leading into harvest was relatively cool and uneventful. Moderate day temperatures and cool nights ensured extended hang times, which resulted in wines with great structure, round mouthfeel, and balanced flavors

Frei Brothers Sonoma Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon V21 750ML

Flavorful and smooth, Our 2021 Frei Brothers Reserve Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic expression of this acclaimed region. Blackberry and black cherry notes on the nose carry through to the silky-smooth palate, complemented by layered hints of dark plum, berry compote, cocoa and hints of spice. Subtle touches of light oak and caramel highlight the long, beautifully balanced finish.

Franciscan Cabernet Sauvignon V21 750ML

Sourced from some of California’s finest vineyards, our Franciscan Cabernet Sauvignon is full bodied with notes of dark cherry and toasted caramel.

It also allows the wine to pairs well with a wide variety of cuisines - anything from pho to your favorite gourmet burger.
