Description
Benchland Select Cabernet by Cakebread is a distinguished red wine that captures the essence of Napa Valley's renowned benchland vineyards. This Cabernet Sauvignon presents a robust yet balanced profile, typical of wines from this celebrated region. Expect a rich tapestry of dark fruit flavors, likely including blackcurrant and blackberry, interwoven with subtle oak influences that lend complexity and depth. Its structured body, coupled with moderate tannins and a hint of acidity, creates a harmonious mouthfeel that lingers gracefully on the palate. Serving Benchland Select is best at a temperature between 60-65°F, which allows its intricate flavors to fully unfold. While decanting isn't mandatory, doing so for about 30 minutes can help open up its bouquet, enhancing your tasting experience. Pour this Cabernet into a large-bowled wine glass—like a Bordeaux glass—to concentrate its aromas and allow it to breathe, highlighting its elegant character. This wine pairs beautifully with hearty dishes, making it an ideal companion for meals featuring grilled meats, such as a ribeye steak or lamb chops. Its nuanced profile also complements savory dishes with rich sauces and aged cheeses. While it can be enjoyed now, Benchland Select has the potential to age gracefully, promising to evolve in complexity over the next several years. Collectors and enthusiasts alike will find this wine a worthy addition to their cellar, offering both immediate enjoyment and future promise.

Had it first at a friend's house and had to hunt down my own bottle. Even better the second time around.
Response from CBC Liquors, Westford
That happens all the time with Benchland, glad you tracked it down here.
-
Usually I buy Silver Oak but this blew it away at our anniversary dinner. More depth and less sharp tannin, went great with ribeye.
-
Cabernet's big and smooth, just a little heavy for me
Response from CBC Liquors, Westford
Thanks for giving Cakebread a shot, if you want something with a lighter touch next time, the Smith & Hook Cab is worth a look. - Marie
