2018 California Hillside Cabernet Sauvignon

The Juggernaut 2018 Hillside Cabernet Sauvignon from California offers a medium body that perfectly balances the prominent fruit intensity and notable tannins. The rich red color hints at the bold flavors waiting to be savored in every glass. With a touch of acidity to lift the fruit flavors, this Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the unique characteristics of California's hillside vineyards in a harmonious blend.

Tasting notes:

The hillside environment causes vines to struggle, yielding fewer clusters and smaller berry size. The result is berries that are loaded with rich, ripe, intensely concentrated flavors and complexity. These flavors are dense and velvety, with vanilla and ripe blackcurrants. Then on the nose, the wine shows Anise, black fruit, and cassis.

Region:

California

California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.
