Big Ass Cab
2007 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Wine
Fruit-driven and full-bodied with lush aromas of cassis, crushed red berries, and slight cinnamon and cedar nuances, our Big Ass Cab is a perfect complement to any rich or savory meal. This wine was fermented warm (75-85°F) with regular gentle mixing to ensure good extraction of tannin and color. The wine was aged in a mix of French and American oak barrels, which gives the wine balanced toasty oak and vanilla characters. The palate exhibits concentrated blackcurrant and ripe berry flavors that are layered with lush cocoa powder tannins in the finish.
