Cabernet Sauvignon By Christian Esser, Calistoga, 2018

$125.00

Description

Wine Profile

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon opens with an expressive aroma of ripe, fresh blackberries, warm black plums, and black currants with hints of cedar chest, pencil lead, Chinese five-spice, and dark chocolate. A full-bodied palate delivers mouth-coating black fruit and exotic spice flavors, supported by firm, grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing on a lingering cinnamon stick note.

Food Pairing

Steak. The obvious one.

A good burger. Which is, after all, chopped steak.

Beef short ribs and other braised beef dishes. Slow-braised beef - or venison - can be great too, especially when cooked in red wine. 

Roast or grilled lamb. 

Portabello mushrooms.

Hard Cheese.
