ABOUT THIS WINE:
Saturn's Rings
Cabernet Sauvignon
Greatness isn’t always appreciated right away, sometimes it can take years or even centuries to receive credit. Thankfully judges have seen the light and awarded it a Gold medal at the 2019 Texas International Wine Competition and Silver at the 2019 Winemaker Challenge. Saturn’s Rings is all about acknowledging the journey along the way, and this wine is a discovery all its own. We love the dark cherry flavors that play off of hints of licorice and mint. The color is a beautiful, deep ruby that shines in a glass. We think that the texture and tannins can complement mildly acidic tomato-based dishes, as well pair exceptionally well with roast duck or wild game. For once greatness is discovered and appreciated in this Cabernet Sauvignon.

WINE REGION:
California
California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.

TASTING NOTES:
Black Cherry
Mint
Oak
This is a complex and muscular wine. A dark Cabernet with flavors of black cherry, licorice, and mint that are supported by a full structure that comes from the time it spent on oak. The tannins and hints of spice make it a great option for pairing with heartier meats and dishes rich in umami.
