2016 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon

The Liberty School Classic Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2016 vintage is a remarkable representation of the Paso Robles region. This red wine exhibits a medium body, making it both approachable and satisfying. With a bright acidity that enhances its overall freshness, it balances beautifully with the prominent fruit intensity, expressing notes of dark cherries and blackberries. The tannins are notably firm, providing structure without overwhelming the palate, while the wine's dryness allows for a clean finish that invites another sip. This Cabernet Sauvignon is a delightful choice for gatherings and pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes, showcasing the terroir of Paso Robles with every pour.

Region:

Central Coast

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
