CABERNET SAUVIGNON Cabernet wines are renowned for their power, richness of colour, aroma, depth of flavour and tannic quality that makes them very long lived. More often than not, Cabernet is blended with other varieties like Merlot to soften and round off its aggressivenes; traditionally it is put through a malolactic fermentation and barrel matured to give it a smoother, mellower texture. Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the more familiar blends, but take a peek at the many different Cabernets we have in stock, you'll be spoilt for choice!
