Wine Review: This ruby colored Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a cedar and cinnamon bouquet with hints of red currant and menthol. On the palate, this wine full bodied with medium plus acidity. This mouthfeel is balanced, round, lush, and easy to drink. The flavor profile is a craisin and red plum blend with notes of cedar and chai tea. I also detected hints of red licorice. Its favors and friendly tannins drift away nicely. This red fruit-based Cab would pair well with a Tuscan wild boar ragu with pappardelle pasta. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Bonanza is a California Cabernet Sauvignon that speaks to the simple pleasures of day-to-day life. Created by Chuck Wagner of Caymus Vineyards, this wine is delicious, accessible, and enjoyable over a meal. It’s made from the “Bonanza” of our great state – vineyard sites that hold potential to produce good Cabernet but are often overlooked. Features flavors of luscious fruit, dark chocolate, and silky tannins.
