Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the most prevalent red wine varietals known. It is grown in almost every wine-growing country and is recognized worldwide. Cabernet Sauvignon was one of the world’s most planted grapes until the 1990’s, when Merlot took its place in popularity. The grapes have thick skins and the vines are strong. Cabernet is resilient against rot and frost, which makes it very popular and easy to grow in a variety of conditions.
During a DNA test by the UC Davis Department of Viticulture and Enology in the late 1990’s, the grapes were discovered to be a hybrid relative (came from crossing) Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc . The grape varietal can grow in a variety of soils, which makes it one of the best grapes to blend with.
Some Super Tuscan wines include Cabernet Sauvignon as well as Bordeaux and many other wines. The original popularity of Cabernet was from French Bordeaux wines. The style of Cabernet Sauvignon is dependent on the ripeness of the grapes when harvested as well as for their ability to age.
The riper the grapes are at harvesting, the more jammy the wine will be. The unripe grapes have a vegetal flavor like green bell peppers. The aroma of black currants and fruit flavors of cherries and plums are noticed in Cabernet Sauvignon.
Cabernet Sauvignons possess a higher tannin content and can range from medium to full bodied. Tobacco, leather, vanilla and warm spice can be present in their aromas. From French Bordeaux, Italian Super Tuscans or regions in Australia, South America, the United States, Spain, Africa, and Europe, Cabernet Sauvignon has given wine great value.

"Even in this vintage, which was not so great, Beaulieu has succeeded with this dramatic, classic Cabernet Sauvignon. It's absolutely delicious, offering a range of blackberry, black currant and cedar flavors, complexed with notes of chocolate, anise, sweet smoky leather and Asian spices. Beautiful now for its velvety softness, but has the inherent structure to last for a long time. Through 2014, and much longer if you like older Cabernet."

The long warm 2007 growing season, along with a very low crop and smaller concentrated berries yielded us one of our best Cabernets to date. This wine has much of the ripeness of 2004 with more pronounced aromas and flavors of plum, black currant, and cherry. As always, this exceptional vintage was fermented in small lots to ensure the character of each part of the Olive Hill Vineyard. This vintage was aged for 24 months in only the finest tight grain French oak. A bouquet of fine oak, anise and mint combine with supple tannin and a long finish to produce a well-balanced rich full-bodied Cabernet that will age well for years to come and drink well at your table now.
B.R. Cohn Winery has consistently produced one of the premier Cabernets in California from our Olive Hill Estate Vineyards in the heart of the Sonoma Valley. Underground natural hot springs warm the soil, and gentle ocean breezes create a unique micro-climate perfectly suited for growing Cabernet Sauvignon.

"The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon is beautiful. Scents of pain grille, mocha, black currants, spices and plums emerge from this deep, resonant wine. The 2010 possesses stunning textural depth and richness, not to mention phenomenal overall balance. Readers who want to get a sense of the 2010 vintage without spending a huge amount of money may want to start here. This is a dazzling wine, especially within its price range. The 2010 is 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot."
winemaker's notes:
The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon is ultra-concentrated both in the nose and on the palate with aromas of blueberry, dark plum and Black Mission fig followed by cardamom, nutmeg, graphite, tobacco and vanilla bean. The sweet tannins are intertwined with flavors of anise, caramel cream, spicy black pepper and crushed blackberries, contributing to the long, lush finish.

Winemaker's Notes:
Fragrant, bright and pure, with black currant, coffee and violet notes. A core of dark fruit runs through the palate, defining this as a powerful expression of ripe Cabernet Sauvignon. Supple tannins coat the palate & frame all the elements to create a focused, elegant and classic Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon.

Among our best wines, the bottlings in our Bench Blend Collection illustrate the quintessential characteristics of Napa Valley: lush, expressive fruit. These wines are soft, elegant and beautifully integrated, melding grapes from hand selected vineyard blocks that deliver intense flavor characteristics. They are a testament to the extraordinary vineyards of southern Napa.

"Our Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon has been recognised all over the world as one of Australia's great Cabernet Sauvignon styles.
Cabernet Sauvignon grown in the Barossa produces beautifully structured wines noted for their longevity and the handsome reward they give to those who choose to cellar these wines.
The color is deep red with a dense black centre, and the nose gives tantalising aromas of chocolate, blackcurrants, with hints of nutmeg, cloves and star anise. It is a beautifully rich Cabernet with superb depth of seamless fruit. A supple wine, it is lively and inviting and finishes satisfyingly firm. A wonderful drop, indeed."
