ABOUT THIS WINE:
Cien por Ciento
Cabernet Sauvignon
Pairing food and wine can be intimidating, and there are a lot of factors to consider when deciding what to drink with dinner. Thankfully the Cien por Ciento 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is dying to be paired with whatever you are having. The wine is deep ruby red and full of notes of ripe black fruit, balsamic, and spice that play especially well off of foods native to Mediterranean Spain. Our experts have found that olive oil and herbs bring out some of the secondary flavors. We have been pairing it with roasted meats to complement the rich velvety texture of the wine. So make sure to open this up for your next dinner party, it’ll be a guaranteed hit. And it is a hit with the judges—it took home a silver medal at the 2018 Monterey International Wine Competition the 2018 Critics Challenge, and 90 points and a gold medal at the 2018 San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge!

DueWINE REGION:
Campo de Borja DO
Located near Spain’s northwest coast, Campo de Borja is famous for developing the art of Spanish winemaking, with monasteries tending vineyards since the 1100s. There are few places on Earth that can produce so wide a range of grape varietals as the Campo de Borja, famed for both red and white wines. Nestled in the Ebro River Valley, white wines such as Viura and Chardonnay that would ordinarily wilt in the region's harsh summers thrive thanks to the cooling winds coming down from the Moncayo mountain range. The DO (Denominación de Origen) category within Spain’s wine classifications is the largest portion within the country’s pyramid of quality. Wines are approved to be at DO status when they meet a handful of standards related to authorized varietals, production size, methods within winemaking and aging restrictions. Additionally, appellations must have been recognized for a minimum of five years in order to be considered to be a DO.

TASTING NOTES:
Strawberry
Cherry
Blackcurrant
This wine has ripe notes of red fruit. There are floral notes of strawberry and light cherry, followed by black fruits on the tongue. This wine drinks best with food, and having something with fresh herbs and spices helps to bring out some secondary flavors.
