Cabernet Sauvignon

A pure expression of Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine pushes Castellare’s craftsmanship to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the world’s finest. Meticulous work in the vineyard and a cellar approach that favors elegance over force allow the variety’s bold character to unfold with remarkable finesse. The result is a Cabernet that speaks not only of its noble grape, but also beautifully captures the soul and singular nuances of the Castellare terroir.

Tasting Notes

In the glass, the wine reveals a deep ruby red hue—intense, impenetrable, and touched with seductive violet reflections. Its beautiful clarity and texture invite the senses, unfolding on the nose with a symphony of ripe red berries and warm spices. Layers of blackberry, currant, blueberry, cherry, plum, and date intertwine gracefully with floral whispers of violet and wild rose. On the palate, it is generous and enveloping—warm, soft, and velvety—with fine, silky tannins perfectly woven into its structure. The finish lingers elegantly, leaving a long, persistent trail of ripe fruit and delicate spice.

Food Pairing

 A natural companion to hearty fare—this wine shines alongside roasted meats, succulent steaks, and richly flavored red dishes. It also finds perfect harmony with game and aged cheeses, where its depth and elegance reveal their fullest expression.
