Description

The Noble Vines 337 Cabernet Sauvignon is a remarkable testament to the quality that can be achieved in California's Lodi region. Named after the prized '337' clone—a vine stock originating from Bordeaux—this wine captures the essence of classic viticulture adapted to the warm, sun-drenched terroir of Lodi's cobblestone soils. This unique clone is known for producing smaller berries, which results in a higher skin-to-juice ratio and, consequently, a wine of impressive depth and concentration. Upon pouring, you are greeted with a vibrant and inviting bouquet of black cherry, ripe currant, and fresh herbs, accented by a subtle note of roasted coffee. On the palate, the wine is bold yet balanced, featuring a core of rich blackberry and black cherry flavors that are beautifully framed by toasted oak and a hint of spicy black pepper. Its full-bodied nature, combined with supple, well-integrated tannins, makes it an exceptionally food-friendly choice. This Cabernet Sauvignon is a perfect companion for a variety of dishes, ranging from hearty beef and venison to herb-roasted pork loin, baked chicken, or even a classic barbecue steak. It also pairs elegantly with sautéed mushrooms and aged hard cheeses. Whether you are looking for an everyday indulgence or a reliable bottle to serve at a dinner party, the Noble Vines 337 delivers a sophisticated, 'Bordeaux-like' balance that consistently over-delivers for its price point. It is a true crowd-pleaser that celebrates the craftsmanship of the Indelicato family, who have been pioneers in the California wine industry since 1924, ensuring that every glass reflects their commitment to sustainable farming and quality. Allow the wine to breathe for about 30 minutes to fully unlock its complex layers, and you will find it to be an accessible, enjoyable, and highly memorable experience.
