Big Sipper is a brand committed to delivering quality wines that are expressive and accessible, and this Cabernet Sauvignon is a prime example. The grapes are sourced from vineyards across California, leveraging the state's warm climate to ensure optimal ripeness and flavor concentration, that results in a wine that balances robust fruit characteristics with smooth textures, making it both approachable and interesting. The winemaking process is carefully controlled to preserve the varietal character and quality of the fruit.
