Discover the grape variety: Cabernet-Sauvignon

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.
