Description
In a nutshell:
If you fancy a Californian Cabernet with bold flavours and serious swagger, this bottle's got your number.
The lowdown:
California Cabernet Sauvignon that packs a punch. It's full-bodied and brimming with dark fruit - think blackberries and cassis - with a touch of cedar complexity. Structured tannins and a lick of oak provide a firm framework, but the overall impression is surprisingly drinkable. The grapes come from vineyards in the cooler parts of the Central Valley, where the influence of nearby river deltas tempers the heat and keeps the fruit fresh. Six months in oak adds richness without overwhelming the bold fruit character. This is a robust and intriguing wine that's perfect for those who enjoy a full-bodied style.
The Producer:
Boutinot, the guys responsible for this wine, is a big name in the UK's wine scene and are behind many labels seen on shelves up and down the country. Paul Boutinot kicked things off in 1980, starting with importing wines and soon partnering with winemakers around the globe. They've since gone on to produce their own wines from places like the Rhône Valley, Italy, South Africa and many other places. Their secret is in backing passionate winemakers who aren't afraid to push the envelope, always aiming for wines that really capture the essence of their regions. This, along with providing excellent value for money, is something they've really nailed.
When to drink:
A robust red that cries out for something deeply savoury - think slow-cooked, fall-apart beef or a generous slab of grilled steak. But don't stop there; a wedge of intensely dark chocolate wouldn't go amiss either.
Suitable for Vegans
