About wine:
This grape variety has been cultivated since 1961 and was the first of the Cabernet Sauvignon category. The wine owes its quality to being grown in Sonoma County (Alexander Valley, Sonoma Valley).
-
Harvest and ageing:
After the harvest, the grapes are kept chilled for three days, then fermented for 10–15 days at relatively high temperatures in stainless-steel tanks. After pressing, the wine is aged for 14 months in American, French and Hungarian oak barrels. Petit Verdot, Merlot and Malbec are also blended into the wine to enhance its balance.

Suitable for food pairing
This dry Sonoma County blend, predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, is marked by rich notes of blackcurrant, plum and subtle spice. It pairs beautifully with beef steaks, lamb chops or roast duck with an herb crust. Its firm structure and balanced tannins also complement aged cheeses such as Cheddar or Parmesan.
