Since 1883, the Wente family has handcrafted wines that express the very best of the family’s vineyards and winemaking expertise. Blending traditional and innovative winemaking practices, the winery draws from approximately 3,000 acres of sustainably farmed estate vineyards to create an outstanding portfolio of wines.
Tasting Notes
Aromas of black cherry and plum. Rich fruit on the palate with approachable tannins provide a long, smooth finish. This cabernet consists of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petite Sirah, 6% Merlot, 4% Barbera, 3% Petite Verdot. Each lot of wine was aged separately for 14 months in a combination of American, French, Eastern European and neutral oak barrels.
Our Thoughts
A great California cabernet full of dark plum and cherry with nice oak influence that doesn’t become overpowering. The Wente family has been making wine since 1883, so they have had lots of time to perfect their craft!
