Cabernet Sauvignon

Cabernet Sauvignon stands as a distinguished black grape variety celebrated for its production of premium red wines. One of the great red grapes of the world.

With its robust skin and tannic nature, Cabernet Sauvignon often exhibits herbaceous flavours of blackcurrant, cedar, and spice, accompanied by a rich complexity in body. Originating from the left-bank vineyards of Bordeaux, it has flourished globally, finding success in regions such as Napa Valley, Southern Australia - Coonawarra  and Western Australia - Margaret River.

In the Northern Hemisphere the wines of Bordeaux - Médoc, are particularly thrilling the five first growths of Château Latour, Château Mouton Rothschild (Pauillac), Château Margaux (Margaux), Château Haut-Brion (Pessac Leognan), deliver exceptional glimpses of the brilliance of this grape variety! 

Although the origins of this grape are traced to Bordeaux there are some really exceptional categories to be explored in the Super Tuscan category in particular Podere Grattamacco Bolgheri Rosso, Tenuta dell’Ornellaia Superiore, Tenuta San Guido Sassicia.
