Description:
Cartlidge and Browne was established in the Spring of 1980 with a commitment to creating affordable Californian wines, especially for the sophisticated wine buyer. The wines in the C&B portfolio are well-balanced, appropriately tannic, lightly oaked and low in alcohol, perfect for food-friendly pairings.
"The question that begs to be answered is why so many producers ignore what Cartlidge and Browne does better than just about anybody else in the state, produce fruit forward, pure, varietally correct, delicious wines." - Wine Advocate Magazine
Tasting Note:
Harvested from the warmest parts of Lake County and the Alexander Valley for optimal richness, Cabernet Sauvignon was then aged in French oak for 16 months. Cardinal red in color, our Cabernet starts out with rich and delicious red fruits on the nose that grow into to ripe blackberry, watermelon, candied plum and crème brulée. Between the tannins there are notes of coffee, rose petals and wet slate. As always, we've created a Cabernet Sauvignon that pairs perfectly with a range of foods, from lamb and duck, to peppercorn steaks and barbecue chicken.
