Glenelly Estate, Cabernet Sauvignon "Glass Collection", Stellenbosch, South Africa 2019
{sustainable} 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
CASSIS & BLACK PLUM, ROASTED BELL PEPPER
Cabernet Sauvignon, like many (if not most) varieties, comes in different shapes and sizes, from the lithe, gleamingly black-fruited output of Bordeaux to the dense, decadent, and resoundingly ripe renditions of Napa. This rendition pulls off an impressive balancing act, bridging the brighter intensity of the grape with resolutely robust ripeness and a pronounced peppery note. Gussied up with a chocolate-like richness courtesy of a year in French oak, it is delightfully multifaceted.
Serving Suggestion: Beef & lamb sausage w/ coriander seed, black pepper, & allspice. Roasted poblanos stuffed w/ savory smoked jackfruit.
