Freemark Abbey Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Red Wine is dark ruby in color and is a rich, opulent Napa Valley wine. This full-bodied dry wine is aged in oak barrels, resulting in a very well-integrated sweet oak spice, adding to the overall complexity. Sourced from select vineyards in Napa Valley, this Cabernet wine features balanced acidity levels due to moderately warm afternoons and early morning fog.
Freemark Abbey wines are produced by a winery whose contemporary rise to prominence has, from the 1960s to the present, coincided with that of California’s fine wine industry.
From a wonderfully abundant vintage with exceptional quality, this Freemark Abbey Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend from over 20 + vineyards using all 5 Bordeaux varietals. Selecting from all over the Napa Valley, we were truly kids in a candy store in creating this cabernet with its' youthful dark ruby color.
With a dark ruby red wine and great complexity, the wine expresses aromas of fresh boysenberry, blackberry pie, Bing cherry, dark chocolate, chocolate berry truffle dusted with cocoa powder, all integrated with the spicy sweetness of oak, cedar, cinnamon, clove and a hint of black pepper.
The body is very full with a soft entry, coupled with dark cherry/berry flavors that develop from start to finish. With great texture and mouth feel, this cabernet is full bodied, rich and opulent. In one word... delicious.
Pair with beef tenderloin grilled with Herbs de Provence, braised short ribs.
