About This Wine


Linguist Estates

Cabernet Sauvignon

On the Central Coast of California, Paso Robles produces some of the most incredible wines coming out of the state. Sitting between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the area is California’s fastest-growing wine region and covers over 40,000 planted acres. Fruit grown throughout the valley experiences daytime temperatures that frequently reach over 100 degrees. Cooling influences from the nearby Pacific Ocean sweep in as the sun goes down, providing relief from the heat and sun. This diurnal shift allows grapes to mature and ripen fully while also developing and retaining natural acidity. The environment is ideal for fruit that loves basking in sunshine during the day but also needs time to rest. Our Linguist Estates Cabernet Sauvignon is a gorgeous reflection of the popular varietal. Medium-bodied and incredibly easy-drinking, this wine is a one-of-a-kind barrel-selection wine, chosen from the best lots of the vintage and sure to please all palates.

Wine 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.

"Herbal, savory component marries well with dark fruit. Mid-weight. Restrained, elegant, long and graceful, but finishes sweet. Extra dimension here." –Michael Apstein, 2021 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition
