2005 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon

The Rabbit Ridge Estate Grown Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2005 vintage hails from the renowned Paso Robles region, where the sun-soaked vineyards nurture bold and expressive varietals. This Cabernet Sauvignon showcases a deep garnet color that hints at its complexity. On the palate, it reveals a splendid balance of full-bodied richness and vibrant acidity, offering layers of ripe blackcurrant, dark cherry, and subtle hints of tobacco and cedar. The tannins are notable yet polished, providing a firm structure that supports the wine’s lush fruit intensity. This wine is impeccably dry, making it a delightful companion for hearty dishes or an indulgent experience on its own. With its expressive character and craftsmanship, the Rabbit Ridge Estate Grown Cabernet Sauvignon is truly a gem from Paso Robles that captivates the senses.

Region:


Paso Robles

California's fastest-growing wine region is quickly gaining an international reputation for its innovative and boundary-breaking wines. Located halfway between LA and San Francisco, the Paso Robles AVA in San Luis Obispo County has two main zones. The eastern side has a hot and sunny climate with deep, rich soils producing plush, fruity wines with sweet ripe flavors. To the west, the cooling influence of the Pacific brings a zingy backbone to rich Zinfandel and Rhône favorites like Syrah and Viognier. Italian varietals like Sangiovese and Nebbiolo are also favorites of Paso Robles grape growers and wine drinkers.
