Fog Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon California, USA is a still, dry Red wine crafted from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Grenache. The grapes are predominantly aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve fresh primary fruit aromas, with a portion in neutral French oak barrels to round out the tannins. This vegetarian-friendly wine offers a rich bouquet of blackberry, violet, and a hint of spice. On the palate, luscious flavours of dried plums, dates, and redcurrants are complemented by soft, well-integrated tannins, leading to a polished, lingering finish. It pairs wonderfully with beef, lamb, or mature hard cheeses.

Ageing took place predominantly in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh primary fruit aromas, with the remainder of the wine aged in neutral French oak barrels, to round out the tannins.
