CARDINALE Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, 6x75cl

🍷 Cardinale – Cabernet Sauvignon
USA | California | Napa Valley | Predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon (with Merlot in some vintages)
Style: Still Red Wine | Winemaking: Crafted from a selection of Napa Valley’s most prestigious mountain and benchland vineyards, fermented in small lots and aged in new French oak barrels to build intensity, structure, and finesse
Farming: From high-elevation sites across Napa’s finest AVAs—Mount Veeder, Howell Mountain, Spring Mountain, and others—where low yields, rocky soils, and cooler conditions produce Cabernet of remarkable power, precision, and ageing potential

🌄 A Napa Valley icon—powerful, polished, and profoundly elegant.

👁 In the Glass:
Opaque ruby with deep garnet edges—dark, luxurious, and commanding.

👃 On the Nose:
Complex and intense. Layers of blackcurrant, blackberry, and plum are intertwined with graphite, cedar, violet, and sweet baking spices. Subtle notes of dark chocolate and espresso add to its opulence.

👅 On the Palate:
Full-bodied and flawlessly structured. Concentrated dark fruit flows across a core of firm yet velvety tannins, framed by vibrant acidity and toasty oak. The finish is long, seamless, and resonant with savoury spice and mineral tension.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Best with dry-aged steak, roast venison, truffle dishes, or black garlic-rubbed lamb. A Cabernet made for rich, refined culinary experiences.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Majestic now with decanting, but built to evolve gracefully over 15–20+ years—revealing deeper layers of complexity with time.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Cardinale is a masterblend of Napa’s grandest terroirs—crafted with precision, aged with patience, and delivered with grandeur. A collector’s Cabernet that speaks with clarity, confidence, and timeless elegance.
