Cabernet Sauvignon

Fat bastard Cabernet is sourced from vines grown in stony soils, with controlled yields, primarily from the foothills of Pezenas and in the Minervois region of Languedoc-Roussillon. Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the more challenging grapes to grow in Southern France so we work closely with the growers throughout the region to determine the best growing areas and harvest times to produce a soft, yet rich wine.

Tasting Notes

Rich and dense, dark black currant color. Intense red fruit with spicy notes. Powerful and smooth on the palate, this is a robust wine with licorice notes and sweet red pepper on the finish.

Food Pairing

Serve with hearty grilled meats or roasts; complements rich, dark chocolate desserts.
