2018 Cabernet Sauvignon, Cresci Vineyards, Lodi

$21.00

Garnet red and bursting with notes of plum, cherry, mixed berries, baking spices and subtle notes of vanilla, this medium-to-full bodied Merlot is full of character. Its finely integrated tannins offer enough structure to stand up to a hearty piece of protein like burgers, steaks, or kebabs.

VINEYARDS & TERROIRS

Cresci Vineyard. The Cabernet vines were planted in 1987 in gravel and medium-fine clay soil with eastern sun exposure, trellised in the single cordon training system. The vineyard is sustainably farmed. Owl boxes throughout the vineyard offer a natural method of pest control.

WINEMAKING

The grapes are crushed and de-stemmed. Primary fermentation lasts for two weeks, during which time the must macerates with the skins and undergoes manual punch-downs three times per day. After malolactic fermentation, the wine is racked into tank to settle for two months and then moved into barrel, where it ages for 24 months in 30% new barrels, and 70% in third- and fourth-year barrels. The Cabernet is bottled unfined and lightly filtered before release.

TASTING NOTES & PAIRING SUGGESTIONS

Full and spicy on the palate, our Cabernet offers generous notes of black cherry and minty notes of eucalyptus, which can be found throughout the Delta. Its deep structure makes it an excellent candidate for cellar aging. We love drinking it with red meats, especially a fine filet mignon and chocolate truffles.
