About This Wine

Butler & Thief

Cabernet Sauvignon

Our 2018 vintage Butler & Thief Cabernet Sauvignon features plush, elegant yet structured dark fruit. Sourced from rich valley soils with alluvial deposits from the Sierra Nevada imparts a fertile fruit flavor and a granite-rich minerality. A touch of Merlot adds depth and dark plum flavors and aromas to this very pretty Cabernet Sauvignon.

Wine 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.
