The single-varietal 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon, aged for nearly 3 years in barrel, is deep garnet-purple in color. It opens with earthy/savory notions of tree bark, black truffle, dried herbs, and Indian spices leading to a core of stewed plums, redcurrant jelly, and boysenberries plus nuances of tobacco leaf, dried mint, and fallen leaves. The medium to full-bodied palate is fantastically elegant and refined, with red berry sparks lifting the dense black fruits supported by plush tannins and bags of freshness, finishing long and minerally. This is impressive!

ALTAMURA CABERNET SAUVIGNON hails from California's renowned wine-producing regions, showcasing a robust flavor profile characterized by ripe blackberries, rich dark chocolate, and subtle hints of oak. This full-bodied wine is known for its smooth tannins and balanced acidity, making it a quintessential representation of California Cabernet Sauvignon.

This wine pairs excellently with grilled steak, roasted lamb, and savory mushroom dishes. For a lighter option, consider serving it alongside a charcuterie board featuring aged cheeses and cured meats.
