Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

This rich, smooth and full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon has deep blue and black

fruit on the palate with cocoa powder and vanilla notes. Additionally, there are

warm spice components, like nutmeg and cassis. The tannins are integrated and

the wine ends with a long and velvety finish.

Pair Flat Top Hills Cabernet Sauvignon with juicy red meat, like steak or chops.

The firm tannins in this wine refresh the palate after each bite. Our favorites

are blue cheese burgers, rosemary braised lamb shanks or filet mignon with

rich balsamic glaze.

Covering the most vine acreage in the state compared to any other red wine variety, Cabernet Sauvignon produces as much wine in California as Merlot and Pinot Noir combined. The state’s diverse terrain and microclimates, as well as the freedom of its winemakers, allow for an incredible range of wine styles from this single grape.

California’s most famous region—and especially for Cabernet Sauvignon—is the acclaimed Napa Valley. While Cabernet is successful throughout the world, rarely has it achieved such merit as it does from the Napa Valley. At this point the two are so intrinsically linked that it is difficult to discuss one without the other.

Napa’s closest neighbor, Sonoma County, does an impressive job keeping up with Napa’s fame and glory. Alexander Valley, Sonoma Mountain, Moon Mountain and Knights Valley contribute to the lot of some of California’s top-rated Cabernet Sauvignon.

Lake County in California’s North Coast has become a focus for some of Napa’s more respected growers. From the Central Coast come iconic examples of classic California Cabernet; Lodi and the Sierra Foothills are great budget-friendly sources of amicable Cabernets.
