2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Southern Hills Wente B04 - California Red

With fruit sourced from the estate vineyards, the Southern Hills Cabernet Sauvignon is expressive of the Livermore Valley. The fruit comes from the valley floor and southern hills of Livermore Valley with its gravelly alluvial fans.

The soil and climate help to give a Cabernet that is rich in flavor with an appealing structure the finish. The Wente family farms approximately 400 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards using the two clones originating from California wine pioneer Charles Wetmore’s Bordeaux cuttings in the 19th century.

Ripe black cherry, juicy red plum and cassis with undertones of mocha and spice.

Rich, mouth-filling tannins and a full-bodied mouthfeel, this wine provides a long, smooth finish. The more this wine sits in the glass, the better it gets.
