Notes from the Winemaker:

BV Coastal Estates wines come from select vineyards along California's Central Coast, where diverse conditions enable us to source each wine from a site where it develops its most intense varietal character. We enhance this intensity in the winery with carefully chosen winemaking methods, for wines of high quality expression at an exceptional value.

To develop the approachable, fruit-forward style of this Cabernet Sauvignon, we first fermented the must (crushed grapes) in stainless steel tanks until dry. The skins contribute flavor and tannin to the wine so we re-submerged the “cap” of skins into the juice several times a day during fermentation. After pressing, we oak-aged the wine to weave toasty vanilla nuances through the expressive aromas and velvety flavors. A dash of Merlot (5%) rounded out the flavor profile. 40% of the blend was barrel-aged for 12 months. Balance received oak aging just long enough to add spicy vanilla nuances to the fruit-forward style.

What Does It Taste Like?

This Cabernet Sauvignon offers lush aromas of ripe blackberries and cherries, with subtle spice and chocolate notes. Smooth tannins envelope the fruity flavors, while toasty vanilla oak nuances linger on the finish. Pull the cork on this easy to enjoy wine when you pull steaks off the grill. It turns a simple barbecue into a fun celebration. Our Cabernet Sauvignon also goes great with gourmet hamburgers, lamb kebabs, pork chops and hearty pasta dishes, like mushroom lasagna.
