About This Wine


Tulares Valley

Cabernet Sauvignon

Longtime wine critics write about how in the 70s and 80s you never quite knew what was going to happen when you opened a bottle of wine. It could be good, it could be bad, or it could be weird. As winemakers have learned more and more about technique, we’ve seen a renaissance of delicious wine, and nowhere has benefitted more than California. The winemakers have learned and are producing incredible wines that we are happy to discover. It’s a true joy to discover wine like the Tulares Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, our new favorite California Cab. It’s balanced and approachable with full fruit and hints of oak and spice. It drinks well on its own but shines with flank steak, lamb chops, or roasted peppers. Judges love it too! It took home a Silver medal from the 2020 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition, the 2020 West Coast Wine Competition and at the 2019 Sommelier Challenge.

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.

This is a very approachable Cabernet. It's soft and easy to drink and ultimately is incredibly balanced. We love the full fruit and kisses of oak and spice.
