Regional information: We selected the grapes for our Cabernet Sauvignon from premier California vineyards. Winemaker Beth Liston visited these vineyards daily to determine which blocks would make it to the final blend. California experiences dry and warm weather, making canopy management key to allow just the right amount of sunlight on the berries. An early bud break was followed by an early harvest, producing wines of outstanding flavour and acidity in the glass.
Tasting notes: Dark Horse Cabernet entices with jammy, dark fruit aromas of blackberry and black cherry, layered with sweet brown spice, toasted nutty oak and a hint of mocha. Firm tannins and a plush mouthfeel lead the way to a dark chocolate mocha finish.

Vinification details: The grapes for our Dark Horse Cabernet Sauvignon were harvested at optimum ripeness led to easy and early extraction of rich colour and velvety tannins in the fermenters. Warmer fermentations (88F - 92F) resulted in more intense flavours and fruit forward aromatics. Post fermentation, the wines are aged to add complexity and balance to the wines.
