WINEMAKER'S TASTING NOTES:

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon from our Milpitas estate reveals a vibrant, fruit-forward character, with aromas of ripe cherry, plum, and blackberry that immediately capture the senses. These bright fruit notes are complemented by subtle hints of spice, adding a touch of complexity without overpowering the fruit. The nose is fresh and inviting, offering a glimpse of the wine's full-bodied nature.

On the palate, the wine is rich yet approachable, with layers of ripe cherry and plum, balanced by the deep, dark berry flavors that define the Cabernet Sauvignon. The slight spice enhances the wine’s depth, providing a smooth, lingering finish. With its bright fruit and elegant structure, this wine is perfect for pairing with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or hearty pasta dishes.
