One of the best vintages for the Paso Robles wine region was 2019 - a growing season with heavy winter rains then moderate weather throughout the summer. Bold and full bodied, this elegant Cabernet Sauvignon from our mature hillside block, best 5 rows, has rich flavors, layers of plum with black cherry and boysenberry, and moderate tannins. There is some smokey leather and dried herbs in the nose, but it is fruit forward with a long finish, balanced and approachable; it "begs for a second glass..." Pair with steak and potatoes, prime rib of beef, grilled vegetables, pasta with mushrooms, rice dishes, ... and good conversation.
2019 Opalessence
2019 Cabernet Sauvignon with Malbec, this wine is full bodied and very food friendly. The Malbec handpicked from 4 short rows on top of a terraced hillside with its own micro climate, adds a soft texture and mouthfeel, as well as some plum and blackberry. Petit Verdot adds to the deep dark hue.
Food Pairing: Grilled vegetables, roasted poultry, hearty pastas
