Description

Indulge in the allure of O'Shaughnessy Cabernet Sauvignon, a wine that embodies the essence of Napa Valley. This Cabernet Sauvignon, meticulously crafted by the esteemed O'Shaughnessy winery, captures the region's unique terroir and winemaking expertise. The O'Shaughnessy estate is in a relatively cool, high-elevation sector of the Oakville AVA. The Cabernet Sauvignon is elegant, showing juicy black currant and blackberry flavors, with savory herbs and notes of cedar. The grapes are hand-harvested, and then hand-sorted. The O'Shaughnessy Howell Mountain is the winery's flagship bottling and includes fruit from the estate’s 23 acres of vines. The fruit is blended with a touch of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. The wines show power and complexity, thanks to the region’s volcanic soils and elevation. The winery boasts sustainable practices that underscore its commitment to environmental stewardship. This is more than a wine; it’s an experience. The O'Shaughnessy Cabernet Sauvignon pairs exquisitely with hearty dishes. Imagine savoring it alongside a perfectly grilled ribeye steak, the wine's robust tannins and rich flavors complementing the meat's savory profile. It's equally delightful with roasted lamb, game meats, or even a sophisticated mushroom risotto. For cheese lovers, it's a match made in heaven with aged cheddar or Gruyère. The wine's complexity and depth ensure it will evolve beautifully in the cellar, rewarding patient collectors with even greater nuances. It is recommended to let the wine breath for at least 20 minutes. Serve the wine at 18°C to fully experience it. Raise a glass of O'Shaughnessy Cabernet Sauvignon and immerse yourself in the luxury, complexity, and finesse of Napa Valley's finest.
