Stone Pine Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

Stone Pine Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Wine Details
Price: $22.00 per bottle

Description: Ventura County. Made From Fruit From our Own Tiny Vineyard which is Hand Tended By Larry. Robust Fruit Flavors with a little more tannin than the Sagebrush Annie's Label. Good Acid and Balance. Has been compared to wines that sell for many times more per bottle. This is our Wine that was "Made In The Vineyard." And a Delicious Cabernet it is. Un-filtered and Un-fined. Big and Chewy. Cold Fermented over 28 Days with Fruit Harvested Late for the Most Flavor the Grapes Can Get.

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.
