Product Notes

An exceptional wine, Wente Vineyards Estate Grown Southern Hills Cabernet Sauvignon is a perfect blend of depth and subtlety. This rich red wine, originating from California’s renowned Livermore Valley, boasts a dynamic profile. It carries intoxicating notes of dark fruit and spicy oak, with hints of vanilla and tobacco. The palate is indulged with robust flavours of blackberry and cherry, complementing a refined tannin structure. Its finish is gracefully lingering, much like the vineyard's enduring dedication to sustainable winegrower practices. Balanced, expressive, and remarkably polished, it's a testament to Wente's impeccable craftsmanship. A splendid partner for hearty dishes.

Tasting Notes

2018 Southern Hills Cabernet Sauvignon welcomes you with floral bouquet aromatics, balanced by ripe blueberries, raspberries and black olives. On the palate this wine delivers ripe plum and boysenberry with subtle, yet playful tannins.
