Discover the best wines made with Cabernet-Sauvignon as a single variety or as a blend of Slovakia.
Structured, tannic reds, deeply coloured, with aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, tobacco and graphite, underpinned by firm acidity and fine ageing potential. Cornerstone of the great Médoc estates (Pauillac, Saint-Estèphe, Saint-Julien) and signature of Napa Valley, Coonawarra and Maipo. The world's most planted red variety, a natural cross of Cabernet Franc x Sauvignon Blanc born in Bordeaux.
Central European vineyard dominated by whites (75%). Signature Veltlínske Zelené (Grüner Veltliner): lively, peppery whites with notes of green apple, citrus, fresh herbs and a touch of white pepper. Fresh, lemony Welschriesling, supple Müller-Thurgau, round Pinot Blanc, mineral Riesling. Slovak Tokaj (907 ha shared with Hungary): sweet botrytised Furmint (honey, dried apricot, quince).
