This wine pours a deep ruby color, hinting at the rich flavors within. On the nose, you'll be greeted by aromas of ripe black currant, juicy plum, and a touch of cedar and vanilla from oak aging. These aromas are a dance in your glass, where they'll open more and more over time to make you savor it. On the palate, Bonterra Cabernet Sauvignon is full-bodied with soft, velvety tannins. The fruit flavors are vibrant and well-balanced with notes of spice and earth, creating a complex and satisfying experience.
Bonterra Cabernet Sauvignon is a versatile food wine that pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes. Its structure and tannins make it an excellent match for grilled meats such as steak, lamb, or even burgers. The fruit-forward profile also complements roasted vegetables, hearty stews, and hard cheeses. Consider pairing it with a grilled ribeye with a rosemary-garlic rub, a slow-cooked lamb shank with root vegetables, or a rich chocolate dessert.
Enjoy Bonterra Cabernet Sauvignon at a slightly cooler than room temperature, around 60-65°F (16-18°C) to enhance its fruit and acidity. Decant the wine for about 15-30 minutes before serving to allow it to fully open up and reveal its complexity. This wine is ready to enjoy now but will also continue to evolve and develop in the bottle over the next few years.
Bonterra Cabernet Sauvignon represents the best of California organic winemaking – a wine that is both delicious and environmentally responsible. Raise a glass to sustainability and savor the flavors of the earth with Bonterra.
