Regarded as the world’s premier winemaking grape, Cabernet Sauvignon is celebrated for its ability to create complex, well-balanced, and long-lasting red wines. Known for its robust tannins, Cabernet Sauvignon has often been thought of as a wine that requires extensive aging to reach its full potential. However, advancements in viticulture have revealed that the key to harvesting lies in assessing tannic ripeness rather than just sugar content. While these wines are certainly ideal for aging, skilled winemakers can produce beautifully structured Cabernet Sauvignons that are delightful to enjoy even while young.

Originating from a cross between Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc, this grape variety has a relatively recent history, with its first documented appearance dating back to the 17th century. Today, Cabernet Sauvignon holds the title of the most widely planted grape variety globally.

This grape played a significant role in establishing Chilean winemaking. First introduced in the 1800s, Cabernet Sauvignon thrived in Chile’s diverse terroirs, leading to its reputation as a leading regional varietal. Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon is celebrated for its softer tannins and fuller body, often with intriguing spicy notes.

Our VineCo Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon presents a vibrant explosion of dark berry flavors, featuring blackberry and black raspberry, beautifully complemented by hints of cedar. This medium to full-bodied red wine showcases a moderate oak presence and an alcohol content of 12.5% by volume. The kit includes medium toast oak chips, which are popular for red wines due to their ability to impart a harmonious blend of vanillin and spice, along with a subtle oakiness typical of fine Cabernets. These oak chips also contribute to the wine's body and mouthfeel.

The VineCo Original Cabernet Sauvignon is a must-have for any red wine enthusiast. Stock your cellar with a few bottles and enjoy the evolution of this wine over the months and years. For a delightful pairing, nothing complements a char-grilled steak quite like this bold and assertive varietal.
