Description:
The TKC Cab is another premier vintage and highly desired by many that have tasted this wonderful full bodied Cabernet-Sauvignon. These grapes come from the Bear River Vineyard in Nevada County. They produce a rich style, and hints of berry and pepper, all the while being a very full well-rounded Cabernet that only you can tell us what you taste.

Varietal Definition
Cabernet Sauvignon:
Cabernet Sauvignon is the most widely planted and significant among the five dominant varieties in France’s Bordeaux region, as well as the most successful red wine produced in California. Though it was thought to be an ancient variety, recent genetic studies at U.C. Davis have determined that Cabernet Sauvignon is actually the hybrid offspring of Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Franc. Cabernet Sauvignon berries are small with black, thick and very tough skin. This toughness makes the grapes fairly resistant to disease and spoilage and able to withstand some autumn rains with little or no damage. It is a mid to late season ripener. These growth characteristics, along with its flavor appeal have made Cabernet Sauvignon one of the most popular red wine varieties worldwide.
