Description

UNSHACKLED Cabernet Sauvignon from California presents itself as a quintessential expression of its varietal, boasting the robust, full-bodied character that wine enthusiasts have come to expect. With an ABV of 14.5%, this wine promises depth and intensity. The palate typically reveals layers of dark fruit such as blackberry and plum, accented by hints of spice and subtle oak. Its tannins are well-structured yet smooth, balancing the wine's richness without overpowering the fruit-forward profile. A measured acidity contributes to a lively finish, rounding out the tasting experience with elegance. This Cabernet Sauvignon is versatile in its pairings, making it an excellent companion to a variety of dishes. Consider serving it alongside a grilled ribeye or a hearty mushroom risotto, where its bold flavors can complement and enhance the meal. Aged cheeses, like cheddar or gouda, also make for a delightful match, drawing out the wine's complex undertones. For optimal enjoyment, serve this wine at a temperature between 60-65°F. Decanting for about 30 minutes can help to open up its bouquet, allowing the deeper notes to emerge. Choose a wide-bowled glass to fully appreciate the aromas and the evolving nuances as you savor each sip. While this Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted to be approachable now, it has the potential to evolve with a few years in the cellar, offering an intriguing option for those who enjoy seeing how a wine can develop over time.

    Rainy Saturday night red. Sat by the window watching the storm, this was perfect for sipping slow.

    Nice and smooth, went down well with burgers off the grill. Not too heavy for a cab, could maybe use a touch more bite.

    Response from CBC Liquors, Westford

    Glad you enjoyed it with burgers. If you want a cab with more kick, give Josh Cabernet a try next time.
