2020
Mendocino

Cabernet Sauvignon
SKU: EVCSM203H

Sensous soft easy-drinking reds are ripe & fruity, but not tart or tannic. They are thoroughly modern “crowd-pleasers” that do not need food to taste their best, and some are not fully dry.

FOOD PAIRING: These fruity reds can handle sugar and spice better than more classic reds, so they are perfect for ASIAN CUISINE, COMFORT FOODS, BRUNCH DISHES plus casual fare like BURGERS & BBQ.

Tasting Notes
Aroma: 

Delightful aromas of blackberry pie, plum and cassis lead to a soft and alluring palate with layers of chocolate, vanilla and a touch of baking spice.

Palate: 

The mouthfeel is direct with silky tannins, light acidity and a long, memorable finish.

Winemaking
Vintage Notes: 

2020 kicked of with ideal growing conditions. Mild temperatures led to evenly developed clusters and an early budbreak was followed by a warm to hot summer. Low winter rains resulted in smaller berries with concentrated flavors. Harvest started in early August and all things pointed to normal yields and exceptional fruit quality.
